Federal election is officially launched in Crowfoot By Murray Green

Every voter in Canada has the right to cast a ballet and make a choice who they want to represent them in Ottawa. The 43rd Canadian federal election has officially been called and Canadians will be able to vote on Oct. 21. “As the Conservative Party candidate for Battle River-Crowfoot, I have been working hard connecting with folks and sharing our positive conservative vision to help Canadians get ahead,” said Damien C. Kurek of Camrose. The region has been represented over the last two decades by Kevin Sorenson and Kurek is the new Conservative Party candidate. “I am thrilled to be part of Andrew Scheer’s team of Conservatives from coast to coast who are ready to make life more affordable by cutting taxes like the Carbon Tax and GST on home heating. We are ready to bring accountability back to Ottawa, and to ensure that government respects your tax dollars and spends within its means. We have a plan to ensure that Canada stands up for what’s right around the world. We are going

to respect provinces and make sure that projects in the national interest, like pipelines, are built,” Kurek added.

Damien Kurek

“We are ready for a change, ready for a leader and a government that empowers Canadians, not one that holds them back. I hear it everyday, Canadians are ready to show the scandal plagued (Justin) Trudeau Liberals the door. We are faced with an important choice on Oct. 21. During the course of this election, it is important to ask the tough questions, and elect a government that will help Canadians get ahead,” said Kurek. As of Sept. 12, Geordie Nelson will be the Green Party candidate and David Michaud let his name stand for the People’s Party of Canada, as well as Kurek.

Nelson spent his earliest days in Ottawa before his family moved to Wainwright when he was 14, when his father was posted in the military. He is a recent graduate of the University of Alberta Augustana Campus in Camrose, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in environmental science. He currently works at Augustana as the conference services coordinator. Geordie believes we can have a strong economy and a healthy environment. This will require creativity, thinking differently and a strong grassroots democracy where citizens can enact meaningful change. Michaud has lived in Beaver County since 2014 and formerly was in the communications branch in the Canadian Armed Forces. He never thought of entering politics before, but in the latter part of 2016 and into 2017, his cousin and himself were working on starting a party, and were going to call it The People’s Party of Canada. When he heard Maxime Bernier had actually started the PPC, and had the same feeling on things, he had to join with him.

The 500 million year perspective

I know I’m in trouble when I’m furious and even in the midst of righteous fury, I know the intensity of my fury is way out of scope for the incident that touched it off. Sigh. I thought I’d be more mature by now. As an operating principle, I make a point of finding things to be grateful for, people and circumstances to appreciate; tiny moments and entire hours to be delighted by. Mood lifters. But lately I’ve noticed myself slip into fretting about the state of our world and the state of our country and the state of our province. I’ve read that there’s a lot of it going around–more people more concerned than usual about things happening in the world. The federal election campaign isn’t helping. I’m currently disenchanted with all the options. I found myself asking, “In our entire astonishingly beautiful fortunate country, among all our 37.4 million people, is this the best we can do?” The ballot will have no option called, “None of the above.” Grump, grump, grump. And I cannot not vote because the ghosts of my ancestors would rise up and strike me with lightning. Sigh again. I could use a little perspective. So. Perspective. Two things helped. One was watching the spectacular harvest moon several evenings last week. Think of it. This cold lifeless rock, suspended in space 384,400 kilometres away, orbiting around our earth. The moon gives us a larger perspective. Fifty years ago when the first astronauts stood on the moon, we saw images of what the earth looks like –a beautiful blue orb with swirling white clouds. Plus, every year we get at least one or two nights of the glorious golden harvest moon reflecting the sun back to us in the night sky. We don’t have to do anything. It just shows up to enchant us, should we choose to be enchanted. A bit of perspective. It’s impossible to feel grumpy and enchanted at the same time. The second thing that gave me more perspective? A smallish news item about finding the fossil of an ancient spider–five hundred million years ancient. Five hundred million years is beyond what I can imagine. Paleontologist Jean-Bernard Caron found the spider fossil in the Burgess Shale in southeastern British Columbia and reported the discovery in the journal Nature. He said, “I was sitting there along the quarry and I turned my head to the right and I see this glowing light coming from the rock. Two eyes, almost staring at me.” The eyes belonged to the fossil of a thumb-sized creature that hundreds of millions of years ago scurried along sea bottoms on long limbs that could sense, grasp, crush and chew. The tiny pincers at the front of the creature’s mouth really excited the paleontology team. Those same pincers are on all members of a family that includes 115,000 different species. “These fossils tell us about the origin of key innovations in animal evolution,” Caron said. Right. Plant and animal species evolve and adapt. Useful characteristics might continue for hundreds of millions of years. Not-useful characteristics die out. So. I wanted a little perspective. I got space perspective and time perspective. And almost certainly, it will not be important or even exist 500 million years from now–unless it turns out to be useful. That perspective might help take the sting out of whatever is our personal or public news of the day. And how useful–space and time perspective are always available.

I read with sadness and disbelief “City Swan Program Under Debate.” Thank you to those who attended the council meeting and spoke up in favour of keeping the swan program. (I was out of the country and unable to attend, nor did I know that this was even under consideration.) We have signs posted, “Swans Are Wild Creatures and As Such Are Unpredictable” posted in prominent places. Swans may look tame, but they’re not, just as the deer roaming the streets of Camrose are not tame. Therefore, we need to act responsibly and not blame wild animals for being what they are. I regularly have redwinged blackbirds bombing me in the spring as I walk around Mirror Lake. They are behaving naturally, and I wouldn’t want them removed. As to the swans scaring away other wildfowl or acting aggressively towards them, I see plenty of ducks and geese on the lakes, and they are smart enough to stay away from the bigger stronger swans. Nature is amazing. As to humane treatment of the swans, they have freedom to roam the lakes all summer, are fed well, and are treated well during the winter–actually better than they would be out in the wild where they fend for themselves. To be able to observe wildlife up close is a gift that enables us to cherish them even more. As to breeding cygnets,

I was very disappointed when that was discontinued. It was incredible to watch the growth of those little cygnets throughout the summer and to watch the “family” swim across the lake with a parent at either end with the little ones in between. Further research needs to be done as to allowing the release of the cygnets into the wild. This is being done all the time with zoos and their breeding programs. As to access to recreational activities on Mirror Lake, why did we discontinue canoeing and paddle boats in the first place? There is plenty of room for both birds and people. And finally, what is the price of joy, because I wonder if the price of keeping the swans isn’t the real issue. To hear the swans’ clarion call across the air, to see their regal movement reflected in the water–these bring joy and even a certain amount of peace. And frankly, we need all the joy and peace we can get. Carolyn Olson, Camrose Bridge construction

Here I thought that all construction and expenses were done with the overpriced bridge on 48th Avenue. But what have I seen the past week? We are removing the grass that was planted so late last October in the snow between the posts that support the guard rail. It is being removed at who knows what exuberant cost to put back shale, gravel, or dirt so the summer stu-

RETURN VISIT

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster University of Alberta Augustana Campus 2019 graduate Sabrina Fernette deboards the luxury version of the Camrose Connector on Aug. 25 during move-in day at Augustana. She returned for a visit from the north campus where she will be continuing her schooling in the field of education. The regular Camrose Connector bus was in for servicing.

dents not have to whipper snip the grass between the posts to save money. Probably what we are spending on the removal of grass, we could have paid the summer students for the next 20 years to whipper snip the little bit of grass. While I’m on a rant, what about the Camrose Community Centre having to be torn down? Reports have shown the floor joists were wrapped with plastic where the joists are attached to the wall joints to rot. Now who should be held accountable? The contractors, building inspector or the engineers? Why couldn’t our engineers have had the foresight to realize that the metal support pillars and the wood studs would rust and rot being contained in a sealed building? The old swimming pool should have been demolished and started new. Also the building should have been built with a peaked roof running east and west and, with the way our previous premier was handing out money for green projects, the new building could have had 50 or more solar panels to help reduce operating costs, to keep the water heaters for the pool or even to help heat or light the new building at certain times of the year. My final rant is the swan issue. First of all, if the City employees are concerned about the health of the swans, then let’s house them on the empty top floor of the new City Hall that is not currently being used. We could also have some of the City workers utilize some of this empty space that require office space, then the City could store some of the town mowers and weed eaters in the swan building. As far as swans attacking different people on the sidewalk, let’s put a snow fence up about three or four feet back from the water’s edge, which would contain the swans away from the sidewalks and from swans trying to cross 48th Avenue. I have spoken with some of the concerned citizens of Camrose and they voice the same concerns. I firmly believe that our engineers, City aldermen, building inspectors have to be accountable for the misuse of millions of taxpayers’ dollars. Louis Hagel, Camrose

Camrose and area members of the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees (AUPE) protested the proposed changes within Bill 9 in front of Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose on Sept. 13. Bill 9 includes the Public Sector Wage Arbitration Deferral Act, which will delay wage arbitration with thousands of unionized employees. The bill became law in the spring session.

AUPE indicates the legislation violates their bargaining agreements, which included third-year wage arbitrations. The union has held information pickets across the province asking members to participate on their own time to stand against the legislation. AUPE also claims the bill is a violation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Joint operation by police take down wanted suspects By Lori Larsen

On Sept. 6, the Camrose Police Service received a complaint of a truck driving erratically at an estimated speed of 160 km/h, while entering the City of Camrose. The Ford F350 was quickly located and a traffic stop was attempted and the truck fled from police. Later in the day police attended a local business for a complaint of a stolen license plate. While investigating the complaint, the same truck was seen being operated in the area. Police attempted to stop the operator of the truck again, as it was being driven on the wrong side of the road towards a tow truck at a high rate of speed. Again, police had to terminate the traffic stop due to public safety. Two individuals from Edmonton were identified as possible suspects in the investigation. The Edmonton Police Service were also investigating the same two individuals regarding a collection of criminal files that included Theft

of motor vehicles, Criminal Flight from police, Possession of Stolen Property and Break and Enter. On Sept. 9, the Camrose Police Service responded to a complaint of a stolen Purolator delivery vehicle. Police determined the Purolator driver had been physically thrown to the ground by two unknown males who entered the vehicle and fled the area. On Sept. 10, members of the Camrose Police Service Major Crimes Unit with assistance from the RCMP Central Alberta District Crime Reduction Unit executed a warrant at a downtown address. Through various investigative techniques it was determined one of the individuals involved in the criminal flight occurrences was inside the residence. Police entered the residence and arrested three subjects on the upstairs floor. Police were aware of a hidden entrance into the basement and it was accessed. Three subjects were located hiding in the crawl space of the house and were subsequently arrested.

Found in the house were the male and female suspects from the criminal flight investigations as well as the Purolator robbery. Found inside the residence was property that was stolen from the Purolator van during the robbery. A 23-year-old male of Edmonton was arrested and charged with the following: Robbery, Possession of Stolen Property over $5,000 (two counts), Criminal Flight (two counts), Dangerous Operation of a Motor Vehicle two counts, Possession of Stolen Property less than $5,000 (three counts), Operate Uninsured Motor Vehicle and Breach of Recognizance (six counts.) A 35-year-old female suspect of Cold Lake was arrested and charged with the following: Criminal Flight (two counts), Dangerous Driving (two counts), Breach of Recognizance (two counts). When she was arrested there were five stolen cheques and five stolen pieces of personal identification found in her purse. She was subsequent-

ly charged with a collection of Possession of Stolen Property charges and two counts of breaching her recognizance. Both are currently in custody awaiting their next court appearance. The Edmonton Police Service and RCMP also have additional charges pending for the two subjects. Both of these subjects were involved in a criminal spree that stretched across central Alberta. Also arrested in the residence were two other males; one who had outstanding warrants and one who was in possession of cocaine and methamphetamine. These two males were released on their own recognizance. Camrose Police Service noted the success of this file was the result of the three policing agencies, Camrose Police Service, Edmonton Police Service and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police working alongside of each other to successfully bring these subjects into custody.

Alzheimer’s Awareness Month By Murray Green

If you can remember that September is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month then you are doing better than some people. September marks Alzheimer’s Awareness month, a time designated to raise awareness of the effects and signs of Alzheimer’s disease in our loved ones and what we can do to support them. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia, a syndrome that affects memory, thinking, orientation, judgement and ability to carry out everyday tasks. It is estimated that by 2038, about one in 10 Albertans over the age of 65 and nearly half over the age of 90 will be living with some form of dementia. Dementia has certain warning signs. Contact your doctor if you notice a loved one having increased difficulty with any of the following. Learning and retaining new information; handling complex tasks, like balancing a cheque book; knowing what to do when problems come up; finding his or her way around familiar places, driving to and from places he or she knows well; finding the right words to say what he or she wants to say; understanding and responding to what he or she sees and hears; acting more irritable or suspicious than

usual, or withdrawing from conversation and activity. Here are some tips in communicating with anyone who may have dementia. First, make sure the person does not have a hearing or vision problem. Sometimes a person may not respond to you because he or she cannot hear you. Not being able to see well may make the person more confused, agitated, or withdrawn. If you suspect a problem, have a health professional evaluate the person’s hearing and vision. Don’t argue. Offer reassurance and try to distract the person or focus his or her attention on something else. Use short, simple, familiar words and sentences. Present only one idea at a time. And avoid talking about abstract concepts. Explain your actions. Break tasks and instructions into clear, simple steps, offered one step at a time. Pay attention to your tone of voice. Be calm and supportive. A person with dementia is still aware of emotions and may become upset upon sensing anger or irritation in your voice. Maintain eye contact and use touch to reassure and show that you are listening. Touch may be better understood than words. Holding the person’s hand or putting an arm around his or her shoulder may get

through when nothing else can. Pay attention to the person’s tone of voice and gestures for clues as to what the person is feeling. Sometimes the emotion is more important than what is said. Do not confront the person about his or her denial of the disease. Arguments will not help either of you. Continue to treat the person with dignity and respect. Allow choices in daily activities. Let the person select his or her clothing, activities and foods. But too many choices can be overwhelming. Offer a choice of two to three options, not the whole range of possibilities. In Alberta, services are readily available for both those suffering from any form of dementia and their caregivers. The Alzheimer Society of Alberta and the Northwest Territories provide education and ongoing support. Albertans can also call Health Link at 811 for advice. Health Link will assess the needs of the person and provide immediate advice for their concerns, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When needed, callers can be referred to Dementia Advice, which is staffed by specialized dementia nurses.

St. Mary’s Hospital celebrates facility’s 30 years By Murray Green

What the community calls the new hospital is now 30 years old. Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose will be celebrating both 95 years of community service and 30 years at the current facility on Friday, Sept. 27 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. It opened on June 23, 1989 beside the old hospital that featured wings built in 1924, 1949 and 1969. “It has been really exciting to see the changes to the services and programs that we are able to provide. Our early support discharge, cancer care and out-patient programs have grown by leaps and bounds. Our new CT scanner, all of these things come with the support of health services, Covenant Health and the community. Community members are extremely supportive of us at St. Mary’s Hospital,” said Cherylyn Antymniuk, St. Mary’s site administrator for the past 14 years. “People often make suggestions and I have seen a lot of growth and collaboration with both staff and community leaders. We are proud of the service we can provide.” St. Mary’s has about 30 employees that experienced the move from the old facility to the current one. “How many people stay in one job and place for that long? The commitment and dedication the staff shows is amazing. That is why it is so easy to go to work each day,” said Cherylyn. The community is invited for a barbecue in front of the building. “We have invited STARS and the stroke ambulance to allow tours that day. Hopefully, they are able to set up that day,” she said. A table with archives of information on the history of the hospital from its start until present day will be on display. “I’m proud to have helped the hospital include a chapel, which was funded by the board. That was huge, especially for our patients and family members,” Cherylyn said. “Another one (great addition) was our early support stroke discharge rehab team, which covers a 100-mile radius from Camrose, that provides care for stroke patients in their home. It is tailored to the patient, it’s what they what to do. I can see patients following along on computers

and that will be the wave of the future,” said Cherylyn. She listed the chemotherapy in Camrose and the replacement of hips and knees as important programs for a rural hospital such as St. Mary’s. “All of our programs have expanded. The hospitalists’ program has ensured patients receive

timely care in the hospital, while doctors can continue with their clinics. Before about one-third of our patients didn’t have a family physician, now pretty much everyone has a family physician and that is key to staying healthy.” The changes are endless to make health care

better for people in Camrose and Alberta. “When we originally opened we had 117 beds. Now we have 76. Outpatients has expanded. Before when you had a baby, you were here three or four days. Now it is about 24 hours. With hip and knee surgeries you used to be here four or five days,

now it’s one or two days. We have less beds, but see way more patients. Staff have to work three times as hard because patients are not here that long. Then they are referred to home care or other services. The beds are filled in the 91 to 93 per cent range every day.”

Elvis artist Dean Z will be in Camrose to perform his One Night With You concert filled with hits from the past. His concert will be at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 3. “I’m excited to play in Camrose and Edmonton because I’ve never played their before and I’m a hockey fan as well. I followed Jari Kurri and Wayne Gretzky when they played in Edmonton and then became a huge Kings fan when they played in Los Angeles,” he said, who grew up in southern California. “Elvis did a short one week tour across Canada in 1957. It was his only international concerts outside of the United States. Elvis wanted to tour more outside of the US. Now I get to do that representing him. His music reached around the world, so coming to Canada means a lot to me,” said Dean. When Dean was three, the documentary This Is Elvis was being broadcast on television. He immediately cleared the coffee table, jumped on top of it and started trying to imitate Presley’s every move. Not long after, Dean’s mother made his first Elvis jump suit and he was on his way. “This is something I saw on television and what I wanted to do. I have never lost my passion for his music,” Dean said. After performing in several shows of his own, Dean took off for the bright light city that would set his soul on fire, Las Vegas, at age 17. Throughout the next 12 years, Dean performed in Vegas and has sang tribute to The Memphis Flash in Japan, Australia, Norway, Denmark, England, across Canada and the United States. Dean soon earned a spot with the World’s Greatest Live Tribute Show, Legends in Concert, then in 2007, moved to headlining the show in Branson, Missouri. In 2008, Dean, his 22-year-old guitarist

brother Daniel, stand up bass player Rob Edwards and crew produced an amazing musical documentary and CD album collaboration filmed and recorded at the legendary Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. Sun Studio is universally considered the birthplace of rock and roll, launching the careers of Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison and Carl Perkins. This album-documentary chronicles Elvis’ entire musical catalog from early Sun Studio sessions. The sessions were painstakingly recreated using some of the same equipment that Elvis himself used in that very same studio. Producers also added “snaps,” “pops” and “hisses” during postproduction to match the original recordings. In 2013, Dean decided it was time to go after the title of Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist. It involved hundreds of Elvis tribute artists competing in 29 preliminary events all over the world for an invitation to the semifinals in Memphis during Elvis Week. Dean nailed down a trip by winning the preliminary. He and the 28 other semi-finalists competed for the top 10 spots in the finals coming three days later. “With so many people tributing Elvis, I had to be my best. I honed my skills over several years and this set the bar for me. I want to get better all of the time,” explained Dean. “With so many hits and songs to chose from it is hard to pick songs. I try to span across his entire career and pick some B side songs as well. The first half is early Elvis from the ‘50s to 1966. The second half continues from 1968 and his live stage comeback after making movies,” Dean shared, who is now 36 years old. His show features boundless energy and youthful exuberance as he accompanies the audience on an eclectic musical journey into the bygone eras of soul, rockabilly, rock ‘n’ roll, pop, and rhythm and blues.

Bailey to host Thursday movies this fall

Everything there is to know, do, see, or attend in Camrose and area in the palm of your hand.

FREE

By Murray Green

The Bailey Theatre is continuing with movies on Thursday nights in downtown Camrose this fall and winter. After Thursday evening shopping, theatre fans can stay for a show with evening films beginning at 7 p.m. The Bailey Theatre Society has a partnership with Film Circuit, presented by TIFF to bring the shows to Camrose.

Happening Today AND Coming Events For not-for-profit clubs, groups and associations. Let us know so we can post it!

POMS

Phone 780-673-9213

Film Thursdays start off on Sept. 26. POMS is an uplifting comedy about Martha (played by Diane Keaton), a woman who moves into a retirement community and starts a cheerleading squad with her fellow residents, Sheryl (Jacki Weaver), Olive (Pam Grier) and Alice (Rhea Perlman), proving that it’s never too late to follow your dreams. On fire

Tel Aviv On Fire airs on Oct. 24 at 7 p.m. It is about Salam, an inexperienced young Palestinian man who becomes a writer on a popular soap opera after a chance meeting with an Israeli soldier. His creative career is on the rise until the soldier and the show’s financial backers disagree about how the show should end and Salam is caught in the middle. Battle of Britain

The Camrose Booster and Bailey Theatre present Battle of Britain in memory of those who fought for our peace on Nov. 13 at 7 p.m. This movie (1968, color) portrays British (and Commonwealth) fighter units during the summer of 1940, before the US became involved in the Second World War. Canadian crews played a role in fighting against the significant German attackers. This action-packed movie features Canada’s own Christopher Plummer along with a host of big-name British stars including Susannah York, Lawrence Olivier, Robert Shaw, Michael Caine, Ian McShane and Trevor Howard. The real stars of the picture, as they were in 1940, are the vintage British Hur-

ricane and Spitfire fighters that are flown in the movie. The aircraft you will see are the originals, not computer-generated graphics. The movie was produced by Canadian Harry Saltzman, along with Polish producer Benjamin Fisz. Wild Rose

Wild Rose will be shown on Nov. 28 at 7 p.m. Fresh out of prison, a Scottish woman juggles her job and two children while pursuing her dream of becoming a country music star. She soon gets her chance when she travels to Nashville on a life-changing journey to discover her true voice.

Councillor Johnson steps down

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, September 17, 2019 – Page 23

FEEL GREAT! • • • • •

By Lori Larsen

On Monday, Sept. 9 City of Camrose councillor Cathie Johnson announced her intention to resign. Cathie expressed her deepest regrets in having to step away from her position as councillor and wanted residents to know that it was not an easy decision, as she sincerely enjoyed representing a voice of the community on council. “It has been a pleasure and an honour to serve since I was elected to council,” she remarked. “I embarked on this journey full of ideas and ambition. Thank you for putting your trust in me as your voice.” The decision to resign from council did not come lightly, but was one she had to make as a result of issues concerning her personal health. “Unfortunately, on this journey I have run into some obstacles that have caused me to pause and reassess. My health has, in recent months, taken a downturn. I have done as much as I can to improve the situation, but now must admit that I need to focus solely on wellness and family for the time being.” Cathie stated that the time she did serve on council was a valuable learning experience and she commended everyone on council and those working for the City of Camrose, for the tremendous effort they put in to ensure the City runs as efficiently as it does. “There is so much that goes on behind the scenes to make this city a truly great place to live. I admire and appreciate the efforts of all involved.” She will continue contributing to building the community of Camrose in as much as her limitations will allow and hopes that in the future, when her health is fully restored, she may once again be able to represent residents in the capacity of councillor. “It is with regret that I am stepping away from council, as there are still many things that I had

TIRES. BRAKES. OIL. EVERYTHING.

Moving Forward?

Shauna Wilton, Politics, Augustana Campus, University of Alberta

As the federal election on Oct. 21 approaches, Canadians will soon be inundated by the campaign slogans of the parties. Slogans embody hours of research with focus groups in an attempt to both sum up and focus the entire campaign in a short phrase. While slogans aim to resonate with voters, they don’t really provide much information upon which voters can make decisions. Campaign slogans are often repetitive, echoing one another as well

as the slogans of the past. The Liberal slogan asking us to “choose forward” is very similar to their campaign slogan in 2004 prompting us to “move forward.” The Green Party borrowed its slogan “Not left. Not Right. Forward together” from further afield, drawing on Winston Churchill’s command, “Forward together.” As the campaign ads roll out over the next few weeks, Canadians can also look forward to seeing Justin Trudeau moving forward on various forms of transportation, Andrew Scheer trying his best to remind us of the good old days under Stephen Harper and various politicians shaking the hands and patting the backs of “regular” Canadians in an attempt to show us that they can connect and do care. The images, slogans, and campaigns, however, do little to inform the public about what the parties actually plan to do when elected. In order for us to make a truly informed decision on voting day, we need to decide what matters most to us and look to the platforms of the various parties for information. As of the writing of this column, much of that detailed information is hard to find or has not yet been released. While most of the parties are similar on some issues (no politician ever promises to slash health care), there are some stark differences. The NDP, Greens and Liberals all propose variations of a strong, more progressive plan to deal with Canada’s climate emergency. As expected, the Conservatives are putting forward a much more traditional plan. The People’s Party actually refutes the scientific consensus on climate change and says that there is no real evidence of catastrophic consequences if we continue on our path of carbon emissions. The economy is always a key issue in an election and I can safely predict that the Conservatives will probably advocate for spending restraint and that the Liberals will most likely promote targeted spending to boost the economy. Another key issue is likely to be immigration. The NDP TV ad recently released for Quebec tackles this issue head on through the identity of the party leader, who appears without his turban. While Trudeau, during his time as prime minister, attempted to contrast Canada’s immigration policies with those of Trump’s US, the Conservatives want a return to Harper’s policies, guided by being “fair, orderly and compassionate.” The biggest outlier, again, is the People’s Party, which wants to repeal the Multiculturalism Act (arguably one of the defining features of Canada) and dramatically reduce immigration. According to CBC’s poll tracker, which aggregates and weights the results of all polls based on methodology and reliability, the Liberals and Conservatives are close together at about 34 per cent and the NDP and Greens have 10 to 14 per cent of Canadians voting for each. This election promises to be contested and close, and requires Canadians to get informed and have their say. For more discussion of the federal election, join Augustana’s political scientists, Drs. Lars Hallstrom, Sandra Rein and Shauna Wilton for the Lunch and Learn Seminar, How the West was Won: Ideology, identity and antagonism in the 2019 Canadian Federal Election on Wednesday, Oct. 2 at noon in the Mayer Family Community Hall.

Stang restored his uncle’s 1947 truck By Murray Green

Brent Stang of Camrose drives a 1947 Chevrolet 3100 truck that he restored last spring. “It was the first year of the advanced design after the war. It was built to attract the soldiers coming home with up to date features, a little more modern,” explained Brent. The 1941 to 46 trucks were almost unchanged because of the low sales to consumers during the war. “The original colour was blue and back then trucks only came in a half a dozen colours. I wanted my own colour. It has taken me nine years to re-build this truck. It came from my uncle and it was in a shed. The last time it was driven was in 1972. It still had the plate on it and the registration with it,” shared Brent. The vehicle sat inside the shed from that time waiting to be brought back to life. “If they did use it past 1972 is was to pick rocks, but didn’t leave the property. Originally, it had a nine foot box on it. I put it on an S10 frame and turned it into a short box,” added Brent. “When I finished my first truck, my uncle asked me if I wanted to rebuild another one. He said my father-inlaw has one in the shed, do you want that? So I ended up getting it for nothing. I had to think if I wanted to do another one. I thought well,

it’s a hobby so I took it on. The first truck took me five years and this one took nine years because there were a lot of modifications going to an S10 from a 1947 frame.” Brent added some modern features to make the truck more drivable. “I have a 1984 S10 drive train and all

FUN FACTS

Advance-Design was a pickup truck series by Chevrolet, their first major redesign after the Second World War. Its GMC counterpart was the GMC New Design. It was billed as a larger, stronger and sleeker design in comparison to the earlier AK Series. First available on Saturday June 28, 1947, these trucks were sold with various minor changes over the years until March 25, 1955. The same basic design family was used for all of its trucks including the Suburban, panel trucks, canopy express and cab overs. The unique cab over fenders and hood required a custom cowl area, which makes the cab over engine cabs and normal truck cabs incompatible with one another, while all truck cabs of all weights interchange. While General Motors used this front end sheet metal, and to a slightly lesser extent the cab, on all of its trucks except for the cab overs. In 1947, changes were gasoline tank filler neck on passenger side of bed. No vent windows in doors. Hood side emblems read Chevrolet with Thriftmaster or Loadmaster underneath. Serial numbers started with EP for half tons, ER for three quarter tons, and ES for one tons. Radios were first available in Chevrolet trucks as an in-dash option on the Advance-Design body style.

of the wiring was upgraded from six volt to 12 volt. All of the lights had to be changed to 12 volt. I did everything on this truck, except I had another guy help me paint it. I wasn’t the lead, but I did help paint,” Brent said. “It always upsets me when you spend so much time restoring a truck for many years and a guy paints over a week and gets all of the credit for it. I wanted to say I helped paint it as well. I wanted to make sure I had a hand in it,” laughed Brent. “I always liked the fiver windows and the style of it. You get the looks when you drive down the road. It looks so cool. I have a 2.8 litre engine, that was in the S10, and the frame is from 1984. The body is original from 1947. I wanted the modern running gear and better suspension. It actually rides very nice. I was surprised when I first took it out, that it rode so nice. It took extra time to build using the S10, than it would have just restoring it as original. The modifications take longer. Originally, you had to have a load of rocks on it for it to drive smoothly,” he laughed.

“I made a few tweaks here and there. I want to drive this truck. My other one was special because it was my first truck; this one I want to drive more, even though it does have some special memories as well. I put in bucket seats with a console, updated the gauges,

but still the same interior design.” The thing Brent is most proud of is the fact he did everything. “I can say I restored it by myself. I had help with the engine, but it was fun to do and it makes a guy proud when you drive down the road in a vehicle that you restored.”

Council approves Curling club washroom renos By Lori Larsen

During the City of Camrose committee of whole meeting held on Aug. 20, council heard on a proposal by the Rose City Curling Club to proceed with renovations of both the men’s and women’s washrooms on the main level of the facility. A quote received from Align Builders for the renovations of the washrooms came in at $65,496 (not including the floors at an additional cost of approximately $2,500.) The recommendation of the Curling Club was to allocate the equivalent dollar amount of the curling club’s rent for the 201920 curling season, to the cost of this renovation with the City covering any outstanding amount. During the regular council meeting held on Aug. 20, council approved a motion to fund the Rose City Curling Club renovations of the club washrooms with funds provided from the General Capital Reserve, with the Club’s rental payments being transferred to capital until the full amount is returned to the General Capital Reserve. Councillor Kevin Hycha commented, “This curling rink has been in dire need of some facelifts for many years, to allow them to try to expand the membership by making it a more viable place to come. They have a brand new board, full of energy, that is ready to move into next season, so I think this is a great step to not only give them a helping hand, but a lift-up to expand the club.” Hycha also made reference to the fact that the curling club has brought millions of dollars into the community by hosting different events. “Going forward in 2022, they have reached out and are holding the Pinty’s tournament. So this enhancement will not only help the club through memberships, but through tournaments and different events.” Mayor Norm Mayer added, “It is a City facility, so we are basically enhancing a building the City owns.”

Labour changes on straight-time banked and overtime By Lori Larsen

Full line of Westeel Fuel Tanks

D&D Vehicle Sales & Service

Changes to general holiday pay and banked overtime of the Employment Labour Standard took effect on Sept. 1. In the spring of this year the Government of Alberta passed the Open for Business Act, which included changes to employment standards rules that are intended to reduce burdens on employers. Effective as of Sept. 1, employers and employees will be able to settle on straight-time banked overtime hours agreements. Flexible Averaging Agreements are being repealed, as straight-time overtime agreements mean they are no longer needed. As well the legislation includes changes to general holiday pay, including a return to a qualifying period of 30 days in the last 12 months before a general holiday, and a return to regular and irregular workday distinctions when calculating general holiday pay. For those interested in learning more about the changes, including the job creation student wage which took effect on

June 26, Alberta’s Employment Standards teams will be offering webinars in September. The webinars will cover what happens to existing banked overtime agreements and Flexible Averaging Agreements. A Webinar focused on the job creation student wage and the new rules for banked overtime and general holiday pay, will occur on Tuesday, Sept. 24. The Alberta’s Employment Standards teams will also offer webinar training on a broad overview of Alberta’s employment standards rules, including overtime and general holiday pay, on the following Wednesday, Sept. 18. Each webinar includes a live question and answer session to give participants a chance to discuss their own situations with the group. For more information on the Alberta Employment Standards or to register for any of the webinar sessions, visit the website a www.alberta.ca/labourand-immigration.

Let me play out this scenario for you…

You get into an accident. Your insurance company says, “Take your vehicle to so and so.” But you say, “I want to take it to The Auto Shoppe – I know Jackie Rae is the celebrity apprentice there, and she wouldn’t lead me astray!” All joking aside, where you take your vehicle after an accident is the most important decision you can make. Two reasons: Number 1: You need to take it to a shop certified by the world’s leading auto manufacturers. Number 2: You need someone you can trust, and that’s The Auto Shoppe in Camrose.

Wow, now that’s a body shop. Gord, Jenn and Ryan

READING SUPPORT

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Central Agencies co-owner James Mayer, left, watches Intact Insurance business development director Julie Lewis and Intact Insurance business development manager Kris Spence present $7,000 for the Reading University program to Battle River Community Foundation ambassador, Blain Fowler. By Murray Green

Representatives from the Intact Insurance Company were recently in Camrose to deliver a cheque in the amount of $7,000, in favour of the Battle River Community Foundation, to support its f lagship initiative, Reading University. The project, just completing its tenth year, is a monthlong remedial reading initiative targeting students in Grades 2 and 3, who are reading below grade level. It is an example of a true community partnership which consists of the Battle River School Division, the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta with financial support from the Battle River Community Foundation. A lthough Intact Financial Corporation has a Foundation of its own that supports various charities on a national scale, it has decided to extend their philanthropy to the grass roots level through their newly cre-

ated “Better Communities Program.” Brokerages representing Intact in the four western provinces were invited to submit applications for grants for projects benefitting their own communities. James Mayer, of Central Agencies, one of several local brokerages who represent Intact in this market, thought that Reading University would be a worthwhile recipient and submitted an application for funding on behalf of the Battle River Community Foundation. Two of Intact’s executives for their Western Division, Kris Spence, Manager of Business Development, and Julie Lewis, Director of Business Development, were on hand for the cheque presentation. “Through our Better Communities Program, we have the opportunity to work with our partners, such as James, to better understand each community and the charitable organizations within that

Impact of Reading University

Research shows that in their first three years of education, children learn to read. After that, and for the rest of their lives, they read to learn. It is well-documented that children who are not reading at grade level by the end of Grade 3, fall farther behind their cohorts and by Grade 5, they are so far behind that they never will catch up. Young people who struggle at school are also at higher risk of drug and alcohol abuse, as well as delinquency. The farther they go down that path, the more it costs them personally, their families and society in general. Assessments indicate that students who participate in the Reading University program, improve their reading skills by an average of two levels over the course of the four-week program. Teachers report that students continue to demonstrate increased enthusiasm and engagement after attending Reading University, benefitting from their improved literacy skills.

community,” explained Mr. Spence. “We wanted to address needs such as child leadership skills, poverty and education. We thought that by supporting projects at this level, we would be able to influence matters for the good, far into the future.” Mr. Spence had the privilege of serving on Intact’s Grant Review Committee and stated that James’ words really resonated with both him and the other members of the western Canadian committee. “James spoke passionately about the Reading University program and I realized how important it was to the community. That line about improving literacy skills really hit me. ‘For their first three years of education, children learn to read. After that, and for the rest of their lives, they read to learn.’ If you don’t know how to read, it can be a struggle for life. I certainly understand how important it is to have our children prepared to continue learning. At that point, we knew that Intact needed to be a part of the Reading University Program!” Mr. Spence concluded by saying, “We are thankful to have a small impact on this community!” For more information on Reading University, visit brcf.ca/reading_university.html.

Joyce Eleanor Chant November 11, 1926 ~ September 11, 2019 The family of Joyce Eleanor Chant announces her passing on September 11, 2019 at the age of 92 years. Joyce was born on November 11, 1926 to Cora and Abel Lyseng, the third child of eight. She spent her childhood on a farm in the Armena area. Joyce met and married Austin Chant in 1945. They spent most of their married life on the family farm just outside of Camrose with their four children. After Austin passed away, Joyce stayed on the farm for about three years and then decided to move into a mobile home in Camrose. She began to find it more difficult to live on her own, so in 2009, Joyce moved into Bethany Meadows where she remained until her passing. Joyce always enjoyed singing and was a loyal choir member in her church for most of her adult life. She was also an active member of the Camrose Sweet Adelines chapter for several years. Joyce also loved her gardens. She took great pride in the proliferation of flowers and plants that she grew. For many years, Joyce was a very active and involved member of the Ladies of The Loyal Order of the Moose reaching the position of Regent. As time marched on, Joyce faced both declining physical health and advancing dementia with strength and determination. She was always a fighter and never gave up until she just couldn’t fight anymore. Joyce was predeceased by her husband Austin and her daughter Linda. She is survived by her daughters Judy Voshell (Jeff) and Deanna Bragg (Lorne); son Gregory Chant; son-in-law George Jason; numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren; and a great-great-granddaughter. A Funeral Service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, September 19, 2019 from the Burgar Memorial Chapel, with Rev. David Ericksson officiating. If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Joyce’s memory may be made to the Bailey Theatre. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! Be Thorough

Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and colour are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.
