Viking councillors celebrate lighting of the Carena sign
Viking town councillors hold their hands up in the air as they stand in front of the new LED illuminated Carena Complex sign that was recently installed on the arena roof. They are, from left: Deputy Mayor Gary Hafso, councillor Debbie O'Toole-Balaban, Mayor Jason Ritchie, councillor Laurel Weisgerber, councillor Dana Ewashko and councillor Judy Acres. Missing from the photo: Councillor Clint Nearing. PATRICIA HARCOURT PHOTO Viking Town Council bravely took a ladder up to the roof of the Carena Complex to be part of an official lighting up ceremony for the recently installed new Carena sign. The sign is a life size replica of the original one on the old Carena building before it burned in 2005. The six-ft. high red lettering is internally illuminated by LED lights that light up at night.
Holden extends nomination deadline Moush John Staff Reporter

The deadline for nominations for the Village of Holden’s byelection was Monday, Oct. 7. But with no nominations filed yet, Returning Officer Christine Mackay has had to extend the deadline. “We are currently in Day 2 of nominations because we have received no submissions yet,” Mackay said. “Residents can still hand in nominations from 10 a.m. to noon today, and if we don’t receive any then we will have to keep it open
till Tuesday, Oct. 15.” According to the Alberta Municipal Affairs, if no nominations are received by the deadline set at the outset, the Returning Officer has to keep them going for six days before contacting the Alberta Municipal Affairs. Mackay who has worked with the Village of Holden for 28 years, and has been the Returning Officer another time said, “I’ve seen this happen before and by Day 2 someone had filed a nomination.” At the time of going to press, the Village of Holden had not received any nomination.

Flu season upon us and clinics starting up Patricia Harcourt Editor
Flu season is at hand and, according to Alberta Health Services (AHS) recent reports, the viral illness is already making inroads in Western Canada, including Alberta. AHS website indicates maps where sporadic flu outbreaks are taking place in this and other areas of the province, except for the southwest, as well as Saskatchewan, BC, and the Yukon. There have been rumours that experts fear the potential of a worse than usual flu outbreak this season, pointing to the severe flu season just concluding in Australia. The way flu manifests "down under" in win-
ter, which takes place during our summer, is one of the indicators used when trying to predict what types of flu we will experience up here in Canada. The ability to predict the flu strains that will come our way each flu season is critical to formulating a flu shot that is effective, at least in part, in order to immunize people against flu strains and their complications. Indeed, some health professionals are suggesting that getting a flu shot earlier rather than later this fall and winter is a wise strategy. Flu vaccination clinics are starting up in the area as the flu season begins for the fall and winter of 2019-2010.

Fire Prevention Week kicked off
The Weekly Review, Wednesday, October 9, 2019 - Page 3
Viking Fire Department kicked off Fire Prevention Week Oct. 6 to 12th with a hearty Pancake Breakfast at the Firehall on Sunday morning. On the sign outside the station, the public was reminded to check their smoke and other detectors to ensure they are in working order as part of a fire prevention plan. The breakfast included some pancake flipping and rides for the children in a firetruck with sirens on! Watch for the Fire Prevention and Salute to Firefighters in the next edition of The Weekly Review.
What is a municipally controlled corporation?
Why is this change necessary?
Municipally controlled corporations are a for-profit entity that is owned by a municipality or group of municipalities designed to provide dividends back to member communities.
Beaver Municipal Solutions is a regional services commission, but it has outgrown that organizational model. We think there’s a better way to operate while still ensuring that we have local oversight and accountability.
Municipally controlled corporations are common in Alberta. EPCOR owned by the City of Edmonton, ENMAX owned by the City of Calgary, and Aquaterra owned by the City of Grande Prairie, County of Grand Prairie, Town of Sexsmith and Town of Wembley are all examples of municipally controlled corporations.

Opinion Why are our governments spending their ad dollars out of the country? The good news is that in the past 15 years, advertising revenue in Canada has gone up 60 percent. The bad news is that most of it is going to internet companies which have no physical location in Canada, don’t hire Canadians, and pay no Canadian taxes. In the early 2000s, internet advertising was only accounting for three percent of all Canadian advertising. Today they are taking half of all advertising spent by Canadians - some $7 billion every year - tax free. Radio, TV, newspapers, and magazines now get a smaller share of gross Canadian advertising than ever, yet pay Canadian employees and contribute taxes while their largest competitors unfairly get a free ride. Some of the largest advertisers in Canada with these foreign internet companies (believe it or not) are Canadian governments. Yes, they take your tax money and send it out of our country where it will never recirculate back to you. Unbelievable. KERRY ANDERSON
With a Rebel yell, no more There is a rumour that has been going around about PM Trudeau this past week. It is some nasty hearsay about the reason he left West Point Grey Academy mid-year in 2001. I question whether it is true, due to the fact that this election isn’t his first foray into politics and it makes me wonder why it was not uncovered four years ago, or more, when he was first attempting to become Prime Minister of Canada. However, there is apparently a court injunction stopping the Globe and Mail from publishing the story. That too could, quite honestly, be a rumour. That’s our world today, where separating information from misinformation is a difficult task for the general public. The national media used to do that for us. Not anymore. Everyone has become tribal including most media. Journalists know what tribe they are joining when they begin working for a national media company. One such group is Rebel Media. When I first got involved with social media, I came upon a couple of interviews they featured exposing people as hypocrites. One such person was David Suzuki. The environmentalist apparently had up to five different homes he was heating and was very shifty when asked direct questions about his apparent hypocrisy. For a person preaching to society about their environmental flaws, these were legitimate questions. It wasn’t long after, however, when I saw a Rebel video they had posted of PM Trudeau being interviewed in the US. It was early in his tenure as PM, and the short video made him look like a complete idiot saying “um” time and time again while failing to even properly know the topic of discussion. When I looked up the full interview on Youtube, I discovered that Rebel had cut the interview several times to purposely make Trudeau look stupid and unsure of himself. In reality he did fine during the interview. I am still looking for a tribe which will abide by the code of journalism ethics and reports without fear or favour. KERRY ANDERSON

Common Sense Articles written by Peter McArthur based on historical knowledge gleaned over many years. Incentives are lacking in today's society, simply because we have been speeding to oversupply everything that might be needed except for common sense. I'm astounded at the amount of landfill piling up as a result of our dealings with Third World countries. When we ourselves have mustered the ability to oversupply foodstuffs for a world the might otherwise be suffering a shortage, we at the same time are accepting oversupply of "junk products" that somehow qualify to pay for our enhanced supply. Shouldn't we be looking for better quality, perhaps something that can be used at least long enough for you to become accustomed to its use, if there is any real use for the item. Of course, these countries that exchange such "junk items" for our crops have been keeping them fed, even to the point of oversupply, so they can tell us they don't want a shipment because of xyz; and we are left wondering about the potential loss of market…really. What is the incentive for them to produce better quality such as "trade goods." That word "goods" has been left out of our trading exchange with some of those countries - simply because we are oversupplying, and have therefore set aside the one incentive that would perhaps work. We no longer have a hungry world and that is great! Yet at the same time, we are unable to consider the payment for our food supply as being made in "trade goods."
Incentives must become an important part of such enterprise. We are able to overproduce everything that is needed for mankind today, thanks to automation and the many inventions of the 19th and 20th Centuries. These inventions came about because there was a world in need that provided many incentives at each stage of the so-called modern world of mankind. Today what is the incentive for the average person to make their mark toward beating global warming? If global warming is a problem, then please set your thermostat down two degrees for the winter and also set it up two degree for the summer. In this way each person can contribute to a potential solution. What is the incentive you ask? I can offer you nothing more than a blanket for the winter and a hand fan for the summer, with a catch, of course. Our laws ought to require that the said blanket and fan must be of a Third World country production. That will provide them with incentive enough to buy our canola that is looking for a market. Of course, they might even take some of our "dirty oil" to fire up plants for production of the many blankets and fans needed in Canada. This article, I'm sure, makes about as much sense as our politicians' promises that fail most common sense tests. Yet, for sure we could use some meaningful incentives, even for our politicians. Good luck on Oct. 21 as that will mark my father's 120th birthday, and he believed in incentives.

Word on the Street: Bruce senior reports attempted fraud Early on September 30, police received a report of an impaired driver in a rural area northeast of Viking. The complainant advised a male had left the residence after an argument and she believed he was intoxicated. Patrols were made in the area; however, the vehicle in question was not located. Later that morning, police received a complaint of a break and enter at a gravel pit in the Kinsella area. The complainant advised someone had entered the yard and stolen fuel from a loader on site. This matter is still under investigation. On October 1, a citizen attended the detachment to report damage to his vehicle. The complainant advised his work truck had a scratch running down the driver’s side and
the back but he was unsure where or when it had been damaged. Police have no suspects at this time. That evening, police were advised of a person who had called 911 and demanded the operator place a call for him. When the operator explained to the caller that was not her job, the male was rude and belligerent. Police are following up on this matter. Also that night, police received a complaint of a missing person. The complainant advised he hadn’t heard from his friend for a few days and was concerned. Police were able to locate the person in Leduc and updated the complainant. On October 3, police received a call for assistance regarding a custody dispute. Police spoke with both parents; however, neither had a copy of the cus-
tody agreement so they were not able to intervene in any way. That same day, police received a report from a senior in Bruce of an attempted phone scam. The complainant advised she received a phone call from a female claiming to work at Viking Pharmacy. The female said the senior had overpaid for prescriptions and requested her debit card information so they could credit her account. The senior contacted her bank and they cancelled her debit card before any loss was incurred. Later that afternoon, police received a complaint of a suspicious vehicle in the ditch southwest of Bruce. Police attended the location and spoke
with the driver who had been attempting to turn around on the road when he got stuck. He had already called a tow truck for assistance. That evening, police were informed of a workplace incident near Kinsella and there were concerns that things might escalate between the involved parties. Police spoke with all involved and mediated the situation without further incident. On October 4, police received a complaint of a theft of a trailer from a business in Viking. The complainant advised he was out of town and had been contacted by Tofield RCMP advising they had located his trailer. He had been unaware the trailer was
missing. This matter is still under investigation. That same day, police received a complaint of a theft of fuel north of Viking. The complainant advised someone had siphoned fuel from his combine overnight. Police have no suspects at this time. That evening, a citizen called police to report she had seen a Facebook post about a suspicious vehicle driving around the Viking area and recognized the
vehicle as having been in her neighbourhood west of Viking earlier in the day. Police did not locate the vehicle in question. On October 5, police received a call from EMS for assistance with removing a heavily intoxicated male from a local hotel. Police attended and, after the male was examined by doctors, he was transported to Viking Detachment where he was held in cells until sober.

New resident at Vialta Lodge welcomed from Edmonton
Vialta Lodge News Marjorie Hanson Have you heard this one yet? After much convincing talk from her husband, Sally finally agreed to call her old family friend and sing her, "Happy Birthday." It was after she finished singing that the
voice at the other end of the line told her that she had the wrong number. "Oh, I'm so sorry," Sally said. "It's okay," the voice replied. "You can use all the practice you can get." September has come and gone and most of us are looking for a more comfortable October. Francis Starzko from Edmonton has joined us as a resident. We welcome her and hope she will enjoy her new home. We've enjoyed some
variety in our entertainment. "Harmony Entertaining" came one afternoon and we had "Hymn Singing" another day.

Our steer insurance this year will be approximately $40 per animal, our 4-H membership fees will be $125 per member and $30 for Cleavers. Our club also
decided that we would like to insure our panels and floor mats that we have purchased in the past. Weigh in will be held on October 20 at the Albrecht's. Time will soon be determined. We will be using the Beaver District scale. Following our new business we had our elections of club officers.

Campground vision still to be decided pending year-end financials Patricia Harcourt After discussion, Beaver County Council decided to defer a decision on the direction of the vision for the future operations of two campgrounds, Camp Lake and Black Nugget Lake. The council will wait for full financial reports of the 2019 camping season, which recently ended, to look over before determining if the direction is for recreational or profit making. Council revisited the issue at Sept. 18's regular meeting but could not proceed without further information. Council needs a vision to move forward with a strategy that includes a business plan and five-year budget. CAO Bob Beck listed the financial situation currently for the campgrounds, stating in his report: "2019 was a far different year for Black Nugget Lake facility as the contract terms were the same as Camp Lake. The county retains all camping revenue, and pays all expenses. "In prior years, the contract at Black Nugget was structured differently and the contractor retained most of the revenue," stated Beck. "I want to see what these dollars and cents are," said Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3), before deciding about the vision. Hrabec initially called for the campgrounds to change course and become profit oriented in nature, which was the reason for the re-think on campground strategy. The previous council had gone a different direction, stressing the recreational nature of the campgrounds, and the provision of a service to the residents and other users. Hrabec said he personally asked campers about the service provided. "At the end of the day, all of them loved the campground," he said, noting that "Camp Lake was immaculate." Hrabec felt there had been "some give and take" in councillor positions on the issue."We need to listen to what some of these people have to say." He suggested an open house be held as part of the county's communication policy, "and get it back to council." He also said an anonymous survey was needed See CAMPGROUND BCC3

Twp. Rd. 514's return to gravel raises ire of Division 4 councillor "You have pavement and we have no road" Patricia Harcourt Beaver County resident Sue Stokes spoke to council about problems expressed by local citizens concerning Twp. Rd. 514's recent conversion back to gravel. The county experienced problems with the road surfacing applied in 2018, which didn't take well on that mile and a half of road, even though other parts of that road were good. It was decided to start from scratch by turning the road back to gravel this fall before resurfacing it again in the spring. Stokes brought council a large rock-like substance as an indicator of the shape the road was in for the drivers in her area. For her and others, safety was an issue when navigating a road full of rocks and marble like gravel that made for slippery conditions. After hearing what ratepayers using the road in Division 1 were experiencing, Councillor Barry Bruce said the east end has it much worse. "I drove down your road and I appreciate what you're saying," he said, to Stokes. "However, have you ever been to Division 4? We don't have a lot of terracem (on the roads), it's just clay and gravel." He reminded council that there are "a couple of places (in Division 4) where they have no access to their property," referring to "zero roads" for these two residents. "Councillor Smook has been a very good advocate from your division but you should hear the uproar in divisions to the east when you have pavement and we have no road," Bruce said. "As councillors we try to be equal, we try to be fair," he said. "We have residents asking why everything goes to the west side of the county." The county should "maybe tell (west end residents) they are better off than those living in the east." But Reeve Jim Kallal (Division 2) replied that, "there is a population variation" between the highly populated west end and the sparsely populated east end of the county. He also stated that sacrifices have been made by councillors "to deal with roads in your division." Previous to that, Kallal reassured Stokes: "There is light at the end of the tunnel for you…Bear with it, you're going to have a nice surface." Stokes had told council that people
are picking big rocks, she referred to them as boulders, off the driveways and sides of the road. Smook said the road had to be turned back to gravel because the chip seal applied the previous year didn't adhere to that part of the road and has to be redone. The work was done by a contractor, explained Dan Blackie, Director of Transportation. Two-thirds of the road worked out well while the other third did not. Stokes worried about a "sliding problem" with vehicles as the road has become "slimy, wet" to the point where navigation on the hills was difficult. She was concerned that others going too fast for the conditions could get into trouble. She herself pulls over to the side going 30 km/hr to prevent an accident if there is oncoming traffic. She asked if the hills could be removed on that stretch of the road where there is such a problem. "In my time here, we've never talked about knocking hills down," said Smook. "That's a total rebuild of the road." But Blackie agreed with Stokes that the problem of the 514 was not the top of the road but its base. The hills have no shoulders and with the natural springs in the area, the road started to crumble, he said. Stokes said this is then a safety issue for people who might end up dropping off the road. Blackie explained that the frost was pushing the rocks up causing the problems for drivers. "We've got to work it in," he said, referring to smaller gravel to offset the situation. "The more it works in it will be better," he said, agreeing there will be improvement after freeze up this fall and winter. "Nobody knew the road was going to turn to gravel," Stokes said, admitting the news was in the Chronicle but went unnoticed. "Now it seems a lot more hazardous than it was (before that was done)." She questioned whether the speed limit could be reduced to help with safety concerns, but Smook said all drivers have to reduce their speed on gravel roads. "On a normal gravel road, it's 80 km/hr," said Blackie. "You drive to the conditions…It's like any other road after a shoulder pull…You take your time but I think it will be okay in the long term."

"to get real answers," how campground users think. And he thanked Maynard Huibers "for asking the hard questions." Division 5 Councillor Dale Pederson, in whose area Camp Lake exists, agreed more information was needed in order to decide a direction. "We're getting complaints from the urbane," he said, regarding potential changes at Camp Lake. When Hrabec initially brought up the issue of profits for the campgrounds several months ago, he suggested letting spaces to long-term seasonal users such as workers in the area on a job. Other councillors such as Division 1's Kevin Smook felt this would mean fewer spaces for recre-
ational users. Reeve Jim Kallal (Division 2) suggested leaving the issue for the time being as there are still two years left for the contractor on a three year contract. "I think we need the full financials to decide," added Hrabec. CAO Beck told council that "we could do it with Camp Lake right now because we own that," adding, of the two campgrounds: "They're very well run…At the end of the year we will see more county staff doing work. "The final financials won't be as rosy as they are today," he cautioned. "We will likely be more of a break-even (for the final financials)." Beck said that other jurisdictions were doing about the same as Beaver County with their campgrounds, "but they are local services oriented," referring to
recreation rather than profit oriented. "Our campgrounds are more established than others in the area," said Hrabec, noting that at Black Nugget Campgrounds there is a "world class golf course next door sending business our way." Meanwhile, Kallal said he wants the CAO to investigate the possibility of someone being able to sublease Black Nugget Lake Campground from the county, which is currently leasing the land from the province. At another meeting, Kallal had mentioned the possibility of the county getting out of the business of running campgrounds altogether. A motion by Smook requesting administration "to come back with the full financial picture (on the two county campgrounds) at a future meeting," was passed unanimously.

Bark of Night David Rosenfelt The last thing defense lawyer Andy Carpenter expects is a tiny, healthy, French bulldog named Truman - who was dropped off at the vets with instructions to be euthanized by a man everyone thought was his owner. But now the owner is nowhere to be found. Thanks to Truman's chip, it's discovered that the man wasn't Truman's owner at all - Truman's real owner was murdered. It's now up to Andy to solve this case.
sets the tone for a successful season.” Although this idea of a combined midget team has been in the pipeline for a while, it didn’t come to fruition until this year. “Since both Tofield and Holden didn’t have enough players to make a team of their own, they came together to form Holden Tofield Titans, which has players from both communities on this team,” said Kari
Cameron, support staff for the County’s minor hockey teams. “At present we have 13 players and two goalies, which is not too far from 17 players the total each team can have.” Cameron said that home games would be played in Tofield, while practice sessions will be hosted at the Holden arena on Tuesday and Thursday nights. “We want to make
use of both the arenas as much as possible,” Cameron explained. “We have until Tuesday, Oct. 15, to finalize the roster so there might be some changes, but we are really happy to have Midget hockey back in Tofield this year and it is nice to see communities across Beaver County supporting minor hockey at all levels.” Dmytriw has been involved with hockey
for a long time even though this is his fourth year being the head coach of a team. “Although this is my first year of coaching the Tofield and Holden players, I have been coaching Viking minor hockey the last three years – two years with their midget program and one with bantam,” Dmytriw noted. “I think like most good teams our strength lies in our goaltending and defense, and as the sea-
son progresses we will have to build on that.” Speaking to how previous rivalries between teams can affect the intercations, Dmytriw was positive and said, “There has been some rivalries in the past when they played one another, but all the guys are putting the team first no matter where they are from, so at the end of the day that’s behind us, and we are now all Titans!”

IRMA NEWS By Marjorie Lawson
Please note that polling hours for the upcoming federal election on Monday, Oct. 21, are 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. This is a change from previous elections. Advance polls run 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on October 11,12, 13, and 14. Giving all Canadians an opportunity to vote is a huge undertaking. Seven hundred temporary workers had to be hired in this constituency alone. The annual flu clinic will be at the New Horizons on November 7. Kealey Archibald sustained serious injuries after a vehicle rollover
last week. STARS transported her to Edmonton and she is recovering from surgery. Family and friends send best wishes for a complete recovery. Get well wishes also go out to Kailynne Hollinger who was injured in a quadding accident and Darren Larson who has serious hand injuries after a farm accident. A good crowd of people attended the bridal shower for Josh Younker and Lauren Ovinge. They will be married in Brooks in a couple of weeks. We extend sympathy to the family of Allan Sauers, who passed away last week at his home at the age of 81. Harvest activities continue slowly and the forecast is for much colder temperatures. But we still have so much to be grateful for in this season of Thanksgiving. May you have a wonderful celebration with family and friends.

Six members of Adrenaline Tae Kwon Do travel to Lethbridge competition Dana Andreson Six members from Adrenaline Tae Kwon Do Club in Viking, along with their instructor Mr. David Andreson, travelled to Lethbridge, Alberta on October 5 to compete in the Alberta Cup. This tournament was hosted by Merritts
Ultimate Tae Kwon Do Ltd in Lethbridge, with hundreds of competitors from all over Alberta taking part. For five members, it was their first time taking part in a Tae Kwon Do tournament but they certainly didn't show their nerves bringing home an impressive 11 medals between the six
of them! Each participant enters the ring to compete their pattern for their belt level and then winning
out in a round robin. Then they suit up to spar other competitors in another round robin. Mr. Andreson was
very happy with the results of the tournament as his students have been working very hard to prepare. Tae Kwon Do
runs every Tuesday and Thursday at the United church and new members are always welcome to start any time.
