to New Norway Fire Department!

Small rural fire departments typically have reasonably light call volumes. Despite this, each firehall must be outfitted with properly trained, highly dedicated volunteers and all halls must have current and reliable equipment.

Premier Fire and Flood Restoration recently donated $5,000 to New Norway Fire Department, to allow their pumper truck to be better equipped with a new lighting system. This equipment will assist firefighters coping with low light and poor visibility conditions.

Balance and mobility lessens falls

By Lori Larsen

According to report by the Public Health Agency of Canada falls remain the leading cause of injury-related hospitalizations among Canadian seniors, and between 20 and 30 per cent of seniors fall each year.

Alberta Health Services is offering a balance and mobility program available to all Flagstaff County seniors.

Beginning in September, there will be a free eight-week program to assist seniors in preventing falls, primarily in the home.

The Balance and Mobility program will be lead by a kinesiologist and held in Sedgewick, Forestburg and Daysland. The program includes exercise sessions and a range of video-conference discussions

that explore how nutrition, sleep, medication, vision, hearing, footwear and posture can impact the risk of having a fall.

All participants must undergo an initial intake assessment that will include a medical history screen, balance testing, and assessment of the ability to multitask. Caregivers may join participants

for assessments and program classes.

The program assessments will be offered in Forestburg Big Knife Villa on Wednesday, Sept. 5; at the Sedgewick Recreation Centre on Monday, Sept.

10; and at Providence Place in Daysland on Friday, Sept. 14.

Following the assessment, the eight sessions –including three exercise classes and five discus-

sions–will run September through early December.

For more information, including times, and to register, please call Susan McDougall at 780-374-3815 Alberta Health Services is the provincial health authority responsible for planning and delivering health supports and services for more than four million adults and children living in Alberta.

Responding to New Norway and area emergencies

By Lori Larsen

Providing some peace of mind for the residents of New Norway and surrounding area is one of the many reasons volunteers give of their time, energy and risk their own safety as firefighters, for the New Norway Fire Services (NNFS).

The New Norway Fire Services has 20 dedicated volunteer members from Chief Ross Penner to the newest recruit, that respond out of New Norway Fire Hall # 2, located in the heart of New Norway.

Volunteers come from a variety of backgrounds and ages (18 and up) some living in New Norway while others come from surrounding areas, such as Len Raymond who lives in the City of Camrose.

As a certified fire investigator, Len is able to bring his expertise to the New Norway FS all the while giving back through volunteering. “New Norway has a lighter call volume and I still wanted to give back,” noted Len as to why he chose to volunteer with NNFS. In a year, the New Norway FS averages 20 to 30 calls including fire, medical and motor vehicle collisions.

“The medical and motor vehicle collisions (MVC) tend to be more than the fire calls and that seems to be the trend throughout the province,” said Raymond, adding that MVC incidents tend to increase in the summer and spring

Sue Nelson, Camrose Booster The New Norway volunteer firefighters are ready to respond to the needs of residents within their service area.

because people actually drive slower in the winter.

“Fire calls average about one or two annually.

Consisting of grass fires and very few structure fires although we have had a couple barn fires recently. One related to a lightening strike and one related to light refraction off a pet bowl which then ignited straw.”

Training for the members is usually done twice a month, every second Monday from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. “We also have a third night where we do more equipment type checks to ensure everything is ready.

That is on top of our postincident inspections.”

Training for the most part is done in-house and in conjunction with Cam-

rose Fire Department, but members also attend courses away. “The formalized training is set out by the National Fire Protection Association,” said Raymond Funding for the New Norway Fire Services comes from Camrose County tax base, which includes that of New Norway.

“The County sets out a budget for us,” said New Norway Fire Services Deputy Chief Klayton Krangnes. “We have a training and equipment budget and we have to make sure we stay within our set budget. The County works really hard to try to help us become a better department.”

Fundraising and donations also play an impor-

tant part of updating and maintaining equipment for the New Norway FS. “Over the past several years we have been doing quite a bit of fundraising to update and improve our equipment,” said Krangnes.

“Our biggest goal now is to get a new set of Jaws of Life; we do respond to quite a few MVCs so having the newest and best equipment is really important to us.”

A new Jaws of Life could easily run $40,000, but Krangnes indicated the newer technology are better equipped to deal with new vehicles and the stronger metals.

The New Norway FS operates with a pumper truck and bush truck (three-quarter ton truck specifically equipped for

quick response to grass fires). Donations from generous corporations and local businesses not only assisted with the purchase of the bush truck but also equipping both the pumper and bush truck, with emergency and scene lighting.

“We are grateful to the County for their continual support and appreciate anything we get to better serve our community,” said Krangnes.

The New Norway Fire Service continues to encourage and is always looking for new members to join. Because the service is based wholly on volunteers who have work and personal obligations as well, it is necessary to maintain at least double the amount of members required for a call out.

“Our group of men and women that we have are dedicated and respond at the drop of the hat – any time of the day or night,” remarked Krangnes.

Fire departments are a necessary service for any community and while the New Norway Fire Services may not be a high volume call service, residents in the service area can rest assured, knowing that fellow residents, neighbours, friends and family–volunteer firefighters–will be called into action to come to their aid.

Helping fight crime one tip at a time

By Lori Larsen

Law enforcement agencies rely heavily on citizens to be the eyes and ears of their communities, especially in rural areas where resources are limited.

The Camrose and Bashaw RCMP, Camrose and District Fish and Wildlife Enforcement Branch and Camrose County Protective Services remind citizens the importance of reporting any suspicious activity, person or vehicle they observe either in their own neighbourhood or while travelling back country roads.

Corporal Isaac Verbaas Camrose RCMP

Several resources are available for citizens to provide these agencies with tips that may not only aid in an officer’s investigation but provide vital information in affecting charges, arrests and subsequent court dispositions.

“Public tips comprise about 90 per cent of my investigations,” said Fish and Wildlife Enforcement Branch district officer, Lorne Rinkel. “My success in this position is heavily reliant on such information” Rinkel explained that tips helped lead to one of his investigations that recently concluded in a successful disposition in Wetaksiwin Court. “There was almost $100,000 in fines and 20 years of license suspensions and judicial orders handed out to a tight knit group of several poachers.”

This particular file resulted in 12 accused with 147 charges laid. “Public tips do work,” reminded Rinkel.

government, gives citizens two ways to report any suspicious or illegal hunting, fishing, serious public lands abuse or dangerous wildlife encounters, by either calling the Report A Poacher line at 1-800642-3800 or going online at www.alberta.ca/reportpoacher.aspx#toc-3.

Battle River Rural Crime Watch Society website (brrcws.com/) and Facebook page (https:// www.facebook.com/BattleRiver-Rural-Crime-WatchSociety-707824772657843/)

are sources often used

by Camrose and Bashaw RCMP and Camrose County Protective Services, to assist in reducing crime in rural communities.

Residents can also submit anonymous tips through the Crime Watch tip page or contact the RCMP complaint line, for Camrose at 780672-3341 or Bashaw at 780372-3593. Camrose County Protective Services can be contacted directly by telephoning 780-672-4449.

Information provided

to law enforcement agencies remains strictly confidential, however providing personal information could assist officers further in the investigation.

The information you provide could be the lead into an investigation or the missing piece an officer requires in an ongoing investigation.

Making that call is another way citizens can assist in protecting natural resources, property and lives.

Tie-ins for New Norway

By Murray Green

Two water tie-ins outside of the Hamlet of New Norway will be allowed in the near future.

Councillor Cindy Trautman moved that “Camrose County council approve connections for the landowners of roll numbers 796200 and 343200 to the New Norway water distribution system, subject to any and all terms and conditions as specified by the County Utilities Department with all expenses to be at the participating landowners’ cost.”

Public works administration was approached by the landowners in July when discussion ensued about how a service could be run, conditions that might be applied, and some rough costs associated with that service. The desire for a service had been expressed, but nothing formal had ever been applied for.

“There currently exists a three inch HDPE waterline that runs under the CN rail tracks directly east of the Hamlet of New Norway. It currently services two properties east of the railway tracks. From a logistical perspective, the most reasonable tie-in for the proposed services would be to utilize this existing line, rather than attempt to route another waterline under the railway tracks as this process is very cost prohibitive,” said Zach Mazure, assistant manager of public works. “One thing to note is that in order for the connection to be made to allow these landowners to tie-in, a utility easement must be obtained from the landowner to permit a municipal waterline to cross their property to get to the requested locations.”

A water service may be constructed only to those properties, which abut directly on roads/streets where water and sewer mains exist, unless site-specific approval is granted by the County. This site-specific approval will require execution of an agreement to define responsibility for cost of main extension, liability, limitations on water use, use of right of way, service connection fee or any matter deemed appropriate by the County. Each landowner would also be responsible for a $5,000 connection fee.

All construction of water infrastructure on public lands and through the easement area will be managed by municipal staff. All work to complete these connections on private land will be the responsibility of the landowners. All costs associated with the installation of the supply line and private land service connections will be at the landowners expense.

County takes restrictions approach to cannabis in parks

By Murray Green

Camrose County will be approaching the legalization of cannabis, similar to the way council feels about alcohol.

Councillor Trevor Miller moved “That Camrose County direct administration to amend Parks Control Bylaw 1018 to include definition of “nuisance” is revised, by replacing the word ‘drunkenness’ with the word ‘intoxication.”

Nuisance means [drunkenness] intoxication; swearing, use of obscene, offensive or insulting language, fighting or disorderly conduct and by adding Clause 4.8 under Section 4 prohibitions 4.8 - No person shall consume any intoxicating substance, including but not limited to, alcohol or cannabis, except within a camping stall and in compliance with all provincial and federal regulations.

Council moved towards the option of treating recreational cannabis consumption similar to alcohol at the Aug. 14 council meeting. Cannabis will be legal in Canada on Oct. 17.

“As discussed with the municipal planning com-

mission, our peace officers favour following the provincial regulations everywhere and adding additional regulations at County parks and campgrounds,” said planning manager Anjah Howard.

Administration does not dispute the dangers relating to substance abuse of any kind. However, the existing provincial rules limit exposure in medium to high risk areas, such as enclosed spaces.

Exposure to second hand smoke would be significantly minimal or non-existent in situations where any smokers (tobacco or cannabis) are in wide open spaces.

While academic studies have shown that THC can be introduced into the bodily fluids of bystanders, these studies were conducted in enclosed environments (i.e. unventilated rooms) and not locations such as the outdoors where cannabis would be legal to consume in an open or moderate model.

“While people may be exposed to second-hand cannabis smoke outside, in parks or in passing on the sidewalk, this type of

exposure may not result in cannabinoid metabolites in bodily fluids, as the exposure may be shorter and less intense than in unventilated areas,” said Anjah referring to Health Effects of Exposure to Second and Third-Hand Marijuana Smoke.

“It is important to note that although the focus of the cannabis discussion seems to predominantly be around the smoking or vaping of it, cannabis can also be consumed in other manners including as an oil, tincture, topical lotion/ balm, edible or infused beverage.

“As considerations for how to address legalization have taken place, there has been a tendency to attempt to align approaches with either alcohol or tobacco. In reality, cannabis has elements that are similar with both. It is similar to alcohol in terms of its effect on cognitive functioning, and it is similar to tobacco in terms of its impacts related to second hand smoke exposure and respiratory issues, as well as odour.”

She did an Internet survey of all cities, towns, special municipalities,

counties and municipal districts; 204 municipalities total. Only 37 had readily available information; about 18 per cent of those surveyed. Only eight of those 37 have finalized their bylaws/policies (20 per cent).

Of the 37 municipalities with data, 46 per cent are treating cannabis like they do smoking, 43 per cent are treating it like alcohol and 11 per cent are following the provincial legislation.

Edmonton has taken the smoking route and has faced lots of criticism for its restrictive setbacks (10 metre) and impact on tobacco smokers and is looking to review their proposal. Their council will be reconsidering their bylaw on Sept. 12. Their initial proposal was to ban tobacco and cannabis smoking within 10 metres of any bus stop, any entrance/exit, window, air intake system, on a patio, in a park that has children’s amenities like playgrounds, outdoor pools, sports fields or off-leash areas reported Anjah.

“Calgary originally took more of an alcohol

approach and banned all forms of cannabis from all public spaces. They also faced significant backlash and have now decided to create designated areas.”

The first option, which limits cannabis consumption only at parks, would require an amendment to the Parks Control Bylaw.

“This is the option that our peace officers prefer. It would simplify the process because we would be following all of the provincial regulations at all places in our community, however, it provides some additional controls at County owned and operated parks. The County is following the provincial government’s legislation, but adding additional restrictions for where cannabis can be used. While an individual could become impaired by cannabis in a public place, it would be no different from an individual consuming alcohol in a licensed premise and then moving outside to a public place.”

County supports Alberta Chamber of Commerce meeting

By Murray Green

Camrose County will be welcoming the Alberta Chambers of Commerce to the area next year.

“I move that Camrose County provide a provincial events sponsorship of $5,000 to the 2019 Alberta Chambers of Commerce AGM, with funding to come from Grants to Organizations in the 2019 budget,” said councillor Doug Lyseng, at the council meeting on Aug. 14.

Administration received a request from the chamber to partner/

sponsor the 2019 Alberta Chambers of Commerce AGM and policy sessions.

The Camrose Chamber of Commerce has been chosen as the host of the provincial event. Representatives from 123 chambers will meet to debate policies for their 24,000 members.

The event is scheduled for May 23 to 25, 2019.

The County will be involved in the event by providing tours including a bus tour of businesses with Camrose County, the Nature Conservation Centre, Biomass System and

any other business or location the County would like to feature,” said Teresa Gratrix, of County corporate services.

The sponsorship includes recognition as the “Taste of Camrose” sponsor featuring locally produced products, logo featured on the “Fun Night” event program, digital signs, verbal recognition by the master of ceremonies, display opportunities, opportunity to speak and four complimentary tickets to the dinner and awards ceremony.

Sponsorship is an

important part of meeting the County’s obligations to support and encourage initiatives which encourage economic development and tourism to the County and the region. This policy is designed to provide an equitable means for community organizations to access County funds, to establish mutually beneficial partnerships between the County and the community events.

In order for the County to sponsor an event, it must have a major provincial component and must take

place within the area of Camrose County.

Events must show a benefit to Camrose County in terms of tourism and market opportunities and target audiences and is subject to budget availability.

Policies passed at the AGM will be recommended to the appropriate level of government. The chamber has been fortunate to play a role in the growth of the diverse and vibrant business sector and to represent the voice of business.

A Farm’s best friend

By Lisa Kaastra We had wanted a farm dog. You know the kind–the gentle creature that tags along as you do the chores, staying by your side as you fill the feed troughs and carry out the milk pails.

Loyal, happy, and possibly even helpful. But what we got was Odin.

A husky-laika mix, “Odie” was a young pup we picked up as a result of a local buy and sell advertisement. I wasn’t completely convinced that the cuteness factor of a husky would override the extra work required for such a social, active dog, but 20 minutes later, we had a yipping fuzz ball sitting by my feet in the front seat.

He spent the first night on the kitchen floor, blocked by chairs and accompanied by this not-yet-mama trying to keep him calm in the night. But from thereafter, he was an Outside Only Dog. At least, in terms of what is Supposed to Happen.

Within the first two years, Odin gave us an “excuse” to replace the septic tank pump, power outlet covers, and a garden hose. He enjoys spreading the garbage contents around the lawn, stealing peas from the garden, rearranging the porch pillows to the lawn, and making friends with the coyotes, howling late into the night. His idea of “fetch” means to run after the ball and hold it captive, and to this day, he thinks the mail is a special treat to show his masters just how quickly he can run away and tear an object apart.

Trucks are for chasing, sheep are for playing tag, and laps by the campfire are the perfect place for him to set his gigantic, leggy body. Odin is also a part of the animals’ circle of life on the farm, giving the calves lots of exercise, providing a target for the squirrels’ pinecones, and teaching the newest kittens how to swat and spit at an oversized opponent.

But he sure is a beautiful-looking creature, especially in his winter fur–an instagram-worthy canine, set against the snow.

“Did you know there’s a giant, mutilated deer leg in the middle of your driveway?” a friend asked, upon arriving for a visit.

I looked over at Odin, who sat, tilted his head, and smiled.

“Ah yes,” I sighed and nodded, scratching under his collar. “I told him he needed to take it off the front porch.”

I’d always said we had wanted a farm dog.

Replacing Tillicum Beach docks

SAVE THOUSANDS on Pre-Built Homes and Receive a FREE $3,000 APPLIANCE PACKAGE

By Murray Green

Tillicum Beach on Driedmeat Lake will be receiving three new docks in the future.

Councillor Jack Lyle moved that “Camrose County council award the supply of three new public use docks at Tillicum Beach park on Driedmeat Lake to Western Boat Lift, Dock and Trailer for the price of $55,509 plus GST with funding to come from taxation.”

Tillicum Beach has five docks, three that need attention. “There are currently five docks at the Tillicum Beach park on Driedmeat Lake. They were constructed out of steel many years ago and have been re-surfaced with new treated lumber decking on more than one occasion. Over time, the condition of the docks has degraded such that they were considered for replacement in the 2018 capital budget,” indicated Zach Mazure, assistant manager of County public works.

Pricing for a total of five docks was requested.

Following review of the submissions, it was concluded that the five docks would not fit within the proposed 2018 budget, so the scope was adjusted to reflect a three dock replacement order be filled.

“The boat launch dock is the priority at this time.

There would be some consideration to complete the remaining dock replacements in 2019 pending future budget discussions,” he added.

There was originally $55,000 allocated to pay for this project.

Following review of the RFP submissions, it was determined there was a number of variable items amongst the proposal including proposed dock sizes, configurations, decking materials, and dock style.

“With that in mind, it was very difficult to provide a completely equal comparison; however, it was felt that the combination of proposed items, as well as the comprehensive proposal provided by Western Boat Lift produced the best overall solution,” Mazure said in his report.

It is expected that the replacement docks will be capable of seasonal removal and installation. It will be required that the docks have the ability for adjustable heights capable of providing six feet of freeboard in water depths varying from five to seven feet.

The docks will have bumper pads to reduce the chance of boats hitting each other while docked in the fishing and boat launch areas.
