Alberta’s Energy Minister Diana McQueen showed her enthusiasm and expressed her excitement about Shell’s Carbon Capture Storage (CSS) project during a tour at the Scotford site on Thursday, April 17. Both McQueen and Mike Lake, MP for Edmonton-MillwoodsBeaumont, were on hand for the tour and to hear an update from company officials. One of those officials to give them, and the media an update on the $1.3 billion project that is nearly half-way complete, was Tim Wiwchar, business opportunity manager for Quest. “It’s really exciting times,” said Wiwchar, who is looking forward to getting the project up and running early in 2015. The project will capture and store underground more than one million tonnes of CO2 per year from the Scotford Upgrader, which began receiving bitumen from the Athabasca Oil Sands Project and converting it into synthetic crude which can in turn be refined into gas, jet fuel, crude oil and diesel since
2003. “Using Shell’s patented amine capture technology, the proposed Quest CCS Project will capture up to 35 per cent of the direct CO2 emissions produced during the upgrading process. The amount of CO2 that will be captured and stored is the equivalent to taking 175,000 vehicles off the road,” stated Wiwchar. Wiwchar explained that the CO2 will be compressed and transported in liquid form by approximately 60 km pipeline to three injection wells north of the upgrader near Thorhild. “One of the things we really focused on was involving stakeholders along the way,” pointed out Wiwchar, who said they plan to be commercially operational next year. “It’s a small, but important step in reducing CO2 emissions,” added Wiwchar. John Rhind, vice-president responsible for mineable oilsands with Shell, talked about the importance of Quest to the company and how it would enable them to increase production to 250,000 barrels per day. “It’s about growing capacity and opportunity...It (Quest) will also reduce our environmen-
tal impact.” Rhind added that it will enable Shell to continue to grow the upgrader into the future. “We’re looking to deploy technology that will require major investment decisions and how they fit in to our overall vision.” McQueen was quite impressed at the rate of development on the projject since it was first introduced four years ago, and was very excited that CCS project will join a handful of other similar projects operating throughout the world. McQueen and Lake both stressed the importance of the project here and abroad, and how the provincial and federal governments are working to meet energy challenges while reducing the overall environmental footprint. Both levels of government have committed $865 million in funding for the project. Once injection begins, the upgrader will be the first oil sands operation to implement CCS, and all parties are in agreement about its importance and value to the economy and the environment here in Alberta, throughout Canada and around the world.

Local residents to benefit from federal funds

Three communities in Lamont County will soon reap the rewards and benefits of federal government funding. Vegreville-Wainwright MP Leon Benoit was kept busy April 14, handing out cheques to two seniors organizations and one local municipality for their proposed projects. Benoit announced that seniors in Bruderheim will soon receive financial support for renovations to their social centre replacing the roof furnace and air conditioning unit to allow them to continue to play cards, pool, floor curling and have social gatherings. The Bruderheim Seniors Club is receiving $19,000 for their project under the New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP). Under the same program, seniors in Andrew will soon have a new dishwasher, sink, water pump and mixer to allow them to continue their cooking programs. The Andrew Rainbow Club will receive $8,177 under NHSP. The Town of Mundare will receive $5,025 from the Enabling Accessibility Fund to install automated door openers that will improve accessibility for Canadians with disabilities. Virginia Differenz, President of the Bruderheim Seniors Club, stated that members are grateful for the generous support and look forward to having a reliable, up-to-date system in the facility. “New Horizons for Seniors is a very worthwhile program which enables us to maintain our building to a high standard.” Elke Carr, program director for Andrew FCSS, stated, “On behalf of the Andrew Rainbow Club and all our senior volunteers, I would like to thank MP Benoit and the Government of Canada for the grant from the NHSP. We are a small aging community, but with the help of extra funds, we will now be able to wash our dishes safely and make the dough for our famous pyrogies more efficiently. “ Carr added that, “It is the volunteer spirit of these seniors that is so important in all communities, to keep traditions alive and teach next generations the skills of old cooking methods requires great kitchen facilities. Thank you once again.” Mundare Mayor Charlie Gargus also expressed his gratitude for the funding of automated door openers at the town office. “Seniors and disabled adults appreciate the assistance being provided for them through federal governments such as this one. All of us can empathize with the challenges someone faces when they live their life from a wheelchair. The grant provided by the Government of Canada certainly will assist the Town of Mundare in helping to work at enabiling those that are disabled.” Benoit stated, “The Government of Canada is creating opportunities for Canadians with disabilities by supporting the Town of Mundare’s project.”

Also present for the official presentation were fellow council members: Mary Greening, left, Irene Talaga, Jaime Burghardt and Frank Rosypal.

Opinion Spring rituals Talk about wet, wild and wonderful. This past Easter long weekend had it all snow, sleet, sunshine. The weather was a good reminder at how quickly things can change. I went from shoveling snow to riding my bike, all in the span of four days. I enjoyed a snowball fight to basking in the warm sunshine. It was quite a transformation as large snowflakes melted into water and then seeped into the thirsty ground. Folks were so hungry to get out of the house, and Sunday brought with it mild temperatures and radiant rays of brilliant sunshine that continued throughout Monday. I saw people skateboarding, cycling, walking, cleaning their yards, working outside on their vehicles, and practicing their golf shots. It was time to let in some of the spring air through the windows, and enjoy the freshness that comes along with it. It was also time to enjoy fresh bread, ham, potatoes, and other yummy Easter time favourites including chocolate! It was also a time to enjoy the company of my sister and her family and our Dad. We had a good time catching up on “our news”, and reminiscing during the leisure hours. For many other people I know as well, sharing faith, family and friends are the essential ingredients in their lives, and it was a great opportunity to incorporate all of them together. Although the landscape remains brown, I know that in a matter of weeks, it will start to green up and show new signs of life. It is a time of renewal and I hope all of you take as much pleasure out of this new season, and all of the wonderful possibilities that await us all. Michelle Pinon - Editor

Letter to the Editor Infrastructure investment tops $70 billion mark Dear Editor, Our Conservative Government knows that investing in public infrastructure helps create jobs and economic growth while also helping create a higher quality of life for families. That’s why we’re delivering more than $70 billion in support over the next 10 years as a part of the largest sustained investment in infrastructure in Canadian history.
Kerry Anderson Publisher
Michelle Pinon Editor
We’ve made infrastructure spending one of our top priorities, but unfortunately not everyone agrees with us. Justin Trudeau’s Liberals have voted against all of our measures to boost infrastructure spending while hypocritically calling in the media for more infrastructure support. With over one million net new jobs created since the depths of the recession—the strongest record in the G7—now is the perfect time to

seize Canada’s moment and invest in our communities. While Justin and the Liberals talk about supporting communities, our Conservative Government will continue delivering results that help our communities grow and prosper. Sincerely, Leon Benoit, MP

Town of Lamont maintains same tax mill rate By Michelle Pinon Editor
While the Town of Lamont was able retain the same mill rate as last year, property taxes for business and home owners may increase, decrease or remain the same depending on the market value assessment of each property. That was the news handed down at the April 8 council meeting. “The mill rate hasn’t changed, but some of the assessments have changed,” pointed out coun. Gail Hrehorets. Members of council wanted to give residents a feel for the overall impact and disclosed their own property values. Coun. Wayne Field’s assessment increased by $4,000 from the previous year, so he will have to pay $50 more in taxes this year. Coun. Dave Taylor’s assessment went down by $700. Therefore, his taxes will be decreased by $8. A lot of homes sold in the Campbell subdivision this past summer, and so Bill Skinner’s assessment went up by $18,000 and he will have to pay $223 more in taxes this year, stated chief administrative officer Sandi Maschmeyer. Coun. Doug Pewarchuk’s assessment went down $6,000 and his taxes lowered by $83, and coun. Hrehorets will also see a reduction of
$36 on her tax bill; while coun. Steve Sharun’s taxes will go down by $25. Coun. Taylor said a lot of people ask him what the assessment is based on, and Maschmeyer said it is based 100 per cent on pure market value. Each year a portion of the community is reassessed. “That’s why you may see swings,” added Mayor Skinner. Maschmeyer said assessments are done on a regular cycle, but that sales are a factor in assessments. Property owners do have the right to appeal their assessment. Maschmeyer said if they chose to do so an assessor would come out and evaluate the house. Coun. Hrehorets said that assessors also do
other comparisons if there is no activity in a certain area. Coun. Sharun recommended they put some information regarding the mill rate and assessment values in the water bill. Skinner said the only things we (council) can control is the mill rate and said other surrounding communities
have had to increase their mill rates, while Lamont’s has remained the same. “We should have our communications officer let people know that,” said coun. Taylor. Tax notices will be mailed out in mid-May and are due on June 30.

From Where I Sit: No Small Feat
By Hazel Anaka In late January after an absence of about thirty years we found ourselves heading back to the ‘happiest place on earth’ during a recent vacation in southern California. As with many things the impetus for a trip to Disneyland was a fouryear-old grandson. It was déja vu all over again. Our only previous trip was when Greg was about the same age. That time we were naïve enough to go at
Christmas when the lineups for everything from amusement rides to food to washrooms was a mile long. This was technically the slow season so wait times were reasonable. As I recall Greg needed to be carried a fair bit when he powered out. Grady was more of a trooper and didn’t wilt until after the daily parade. So what in the world has changed over the past three decades? Everything and nothing. The same friendliness and cleanliness the park has built its reputation on is still there. Now there is an entirely new complex called Disney’s California Adventure. It seemed to have more restrooms and better signage but I suppose that is to be expected. A oneday adult admission of $137 allowed for park hopping between the old and new. A sixteen-dollar parking fee several blocks away gave us shuttle service to and
from the parks. There were disappointments when some of the most popular rides (Radiator Springs Racers and Splash Mountain) were closed for refurbishment. As someone whose head and gut couldn’t tolerate the Scrambler even when I was a teen, I was shocked that Grady and Aunt Hilary went on the large Ferris wheel and the Matterhorn. I got an instant headache after one round on Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree. But I handled Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train in ‘a bugs land,’ I’m happy to report. Some of the cooler things were on the Adventure side: Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters ride (did that one twice) and a virtual ‘suiting up’ as Ironman. The Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion tours were also geared for those of us likely to vomit on any ride too spinny, bumpy, fast or curvy.
VILLAGE OF ANDREW BY-ELECTION NOTICE OF NOMINATION DAY
I loved seeing the place over-run with tiny princesses. I’d heard about this beforehand: where little girls could get their hair and makeup done and be outfitted in a gown. Precious, precious, precious. Our lunch at Taste Pilots’ Grill was good and the prices comparable to elsewhere: a veggie burger and fries for
ten bucks. Contrary to what their website says, off-site food and beverages were allowed and openly consumed. Having Disney staff become ‘Food Nazis’ would ruin their rep, I guess. The whole place runs like a well-oiled machine, which isn’t surprising I suppose since the original park opened
in 1955. They’ve had a few years to get things right. There were ‘guests’ of every age from a few weeks old to seniors in wheelchairs and motorized chairs. To create something that appeals to all sixteen million annual visitors and has stood the test of time is no small feat from where I sit.

Lamont’s Bull-A-Rama Supreme set to kick-off Agricultural Society organizers ready for another amazing sell-out show Michelle Pinon Editor Organizers are putting together final preparations for the 21st edition of Bull-A-Rama Supreme. One of those organizers, Aaron Wick, has been a part of the 18 of the 21 Bull-A-Ramas, and can hardly wait for what he calls Lamont’s Rite of Spring. Thirty of the top bull riders in the world will be competing for bragging rights and winning purse during this Saturday’s wild show. It is the season’s most highly anticipated shows, and Wick advises not to wait until the April 26 event to purchase tickets because they are always sold out. With a limited capacity of 1,400 people and impeccable track record, Wick knows the seats
will all be filled, and gives full credit to the founding members of the Lamont Agricultural Society for making the event such a success, year after year after year. “It’s the families that keep it (Bull-A-Rama) going,” adds Wick, who has chaired the organizing committee since 1999. While he admits there is a lot of hard work that goes into the annual event; it is also a lot of fun and brings all the farmers in the area out for a good time before work in the field begins. “It’s like the sun brings out the gophers!” chuckles Wick. The event also helps several local clubs and groups raise money for projects and activities. Wick says members of Chipman 4-H Beef Club, Elk Island Light Horse 4H Club, junior members
of the Lamont Fish & Game Association, and members of the graduating class at Lamont High School sell popcorn, hot dogs and hamburgers, and help clean up after the event. In front and behind the scenes there is plenty going on, and Wick, along with an estimated 20 other volunteers; make things happen seamlessly. One of the highlights of the evening is the presentation of two scholarships to deserving recipients as well as a substantial donation to a fellow charitable organization. Lamont is one of only a handful of Bull-A-Ramas in the province, and Wick says it will definitely be a memorable experience for one and all. Tyson Wagner couldn’t agree more. The former professional bull rider turned rodeo clown, says
Lamont was one of his favourite stops on tour. He last performed in Lamont during the ag. society’s summer rodeo, and will bring his own special brand of entertainment to the spring classic. “It’s always a good time. The crowd is electric,” says Wagner, who also incorporates his two young sons into his act. “My job is to fill in the dead spots,” says Wagner, whose vast knowledge of the riders and stock is definitely a plus for him. It will no doubt be an added bonus for the crowd, who will be cheering and chuckling all the way through. It’ll be the hottest show in town come Saturday, and one that will leave you wanting more.

Students learn about political situation in Ukraine Michelle Pinon Editor
Students at Lamont High School got a first hand account of the current crisis in the Ukraine during a special presentation on April 15. Vincent Rees, a Ukrainian dance specialist and folklorist, who has been living in Lviv for the past couple of years, brought a insiders perspective and
and explained what the current situation is between the Ukraine and Russia as well as historical background information to put things into perspective for the Grade 7-12 students. “You hear all kinds of things on the news, on facebook. It’s hard to keep track of what’s going on, but I’ll try and give you a recap,” said Rees. He gave the students the geographical layout as well as the lay of the land in terms of recent events between the people of the Ukraine and Russia, and how the ousting of Ukraine’s president, recent protests, illegal election, propoganda, political rhetoric, economic sanctions, as well as reaction from other countries is affecting things on a larger scale. What has escalated into a major conflict, has the potential of turning into another World War, stated Rees. “The fact is, it (war) could happen at any moment.” With war ships and the army at the ready, in addition to large scale nuclear capabilities at their
disposal, anything can happen. Following the presentation, the floor was open to questions. One of the questions was: If there was a war, how would this affect Canada? Rees replied, “If there is a war, it is looking like our government would send support (monetary and military).” Are we prepared for war?, asked another student. Rees said that if war broke out, it would affect everyone. When asked which side he was on, Rees said he was on the side of doing what’s right, and that it is up to people living in the Ukraine to decide on their own. He encouraged the students to read and learn as much about the situation as possible. “With the snap of a finger, things could change very quickly.” As for Rees and his fiance, they still plan on returning to Lviv in June, and are slated to get married in August. They both have their fingers crossed that the dark heavy clouds will blow over, and life can return to normal for them and others in the Ukraine.

Tax reduction requested Michelle Pinon Editor
While the developer of Heartcreek Lamont Estate wanted a reduction in taxes from the Town of Lamont, councillors wanted some type of commitment to build from the company in return. Zhengren (Joe) Zhou, came before council April 8, and made the request to have the amount of its tax levy on its undeveloped vacant subdivision reduced. According to a letter dated June 19, 2013, and addressed to the mayor and council, Zhou stated that the tax levy increased to $500 per title and the company would have to pay $16,000 in total. So while the value and nature of the properties have had no change, Zhou stated that, “It’s too hard for the property owner to understand, afford, and manage from long term perspective.” Heartcreek Lamont Estate Ltd. owns three parcels of land in the town. There are two big parcels, and one parcel that has 31 subdivided lots of 52.88 acres and another un-subdivided parcel consisting of 22.50 acres. On the flip side, several members of council
pointed out to Zhou that people do not even know there is property available for sale, and wanted him to work with a commercial realtor and put up signage. Coun. Doug Pewarchuk asked Zhou if he envisioned commercial development, because there are no indications of that intention while passing by the parcel of land. “Nothing this year,” replied Zhou. While the company has done some marketing, Zhou estimated the timeline for development to be four to five years down the road. Pewarchuk said he wanted to know what the plan was because the town would have to build a road and supply services if development was going to proceed. While Pewarchuk was looking for something concrete, Zhou did not have any specifics or details to produce. “I see no reason to give you a discount. I just see speculation,” stated Pewarchuk. “Before we sign on, we want to see active selling,” he added. Councillor Gail Hrehorets wanted signage as well as a plan available on the website. “You can’t sell lots if no one know you’re selling lots.” She also suggested contracting Doug
Sullivan, who heads the Lamont County Regional Economic Development Initiative (LCREDI) for assistance. Coun. Dave Taylor wanted Zhou to develop clear deliverables, and present them to the town. He also asked Zhou if he was willing to come back to council with a plan in writing. Zhou said he would like to promote development, but alluded to the timing. He agreed that a sign would be a good idea, and would put “something together” for them. Mayor Bill Skinner also reiterated that council was looking for an indication of expectations in order to approve or not approve the request. Zhou indicated the company wants to work with the town to make the development happen, but wanted to wait and see how industry was developing in the region. “How long will depend on industry.” Zhou also agreed to talk to the partners about the situation. Coun. Pewarchuk said he believed the time to develop is now, and said that if the town makes a commitment to them, then they have to make a commitment to the town.

Lamont residents voice road concerns Michelle Pinon Editor
When Ron and Doris Enjeneski moved into their home on 55 Street and 51 Avenue they never envisioned the whirlind of problems that would result from what they claim is a lack of maintenance on the road that runs right by their property. “My husband was told they (Town of Lamont) were going to rebuild the road,” stated Doris. She said that promise came last summer from Mayor Bill Skinner to her husband Ron. With this summer on the horizon, the couple want immediate action to have the road rebuilt from the ground up. “We can’t sit outside in the summer. It’s just a continual dust storm.” With the opening of the nearby Heartland Hotel last year, the proximity to the grain eleva-
tor, and increased travel in general, the Enjeneski’s say they’ve had enough. With a substantial increase in commercial traffic, there comes additional safety and noise concerns as well, they add. “It affects the whole neighbourhood.” They want the oiled road replaced as soon as possible. “I want this road permanently fixed,” says Doris emphatically. “Every year they, (the town), talk about doing something, but nothing gets done.” Doris questions aloud, “So where’s all our tax money going?” Doris said they pay $3,600 in taxes every year and want a return on their investment, and points out that they’re not the only shareholders on the block. She says the current situation affects the quality of life for her, her husband, family members, and other local residents.
“Do you know what it feels like, being a hostage in your own home.” She wants the town to be held accountable.” If that does not happen, Doris says that is exactly what she plans to do if no action is taken by the town in the near future. She describes the current situation as extremely frustrating, and wonders why the town doesn’t seem to be addressing their concerns. “I heard there was money in this year’s budget, so why aren’t they doing anything?” questioned Doris. During a telephone interview with town foreman Richard Chernyk last Thursday, he confirmed work would be proceeding this summer on the corner of 50th and 51 Avenue. Over a two block stretch, crews will be pulverizing the surface of the road. Another
layer will be added, new oil applied, and gravel added to the sides of the road. Even though no money has been set aside for the project, Chernyk said funds will have to come out of the streets and roads budget. As far as money is concerned, Chernyk said the amount will depend on the availability of contractors, rates and scheduling of the job. Chernyk said he hopes work will begin to get underway sometime in June.

10 - The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Vegreville accountant co-chair of unification agency Three designations to become one - CPA
Curtis Palinchuk Accountants (CMAs) and Certified General Accountants (CGAs). As co-chair of the unification agency, Curtis will help lead the three accounting designations to a new, unified designation, the Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA). It’s a job that Curtis relishes, knowing that the decisions he and his colleagues make in the next several months will have an impact on Alberta for decades to come. “Having the three designations come together now makes a lot of sense,” says Curtis. “Over the last 10 years or so, the skills and training for all three existing designations have become very comparable to each other. We strongly believe that moving to a single, high standard under the CPA banner will serve communities well, and eliminate the confusion about the differences between the old designations.” Curtis notes that his leadership role on the transition team will ensure that the business needs of smaller communities are a high priority
as unification proceeds. “Ensuring that Albertans outside of our big centres have access to a full range of accounting services, provided by designated professionals who have demonstrated the highest levels of training and competency, will be first and foremost for me as we move toward the CPA designation in Alberta,” he says. “It is vital that Albertans have full confidence in the new accounting designation that they will start seeing, and my colleagues and I who are shaping this new designation in Alberta will do all we can to build that confidence.” A feature of the CPA designation will be the new on-ramps into the profession for Albertans. For example, a new program is being established this year for Albertans who want to earn a nationally-recognized accounting certificate but choose not to pursue the full CPA designation. This certification will be of particular interest to those who hold accounting diplomas rather than bachelor degrees. “Whether you’re an accounting graduate from Portage College, Lakeland College or the University of Alberta, there will be a spot for you within the unified profession,” Curtis notes. “While a bachelor’s degree will be required to earn the CPA designation, the other options available for diploma grads, or those
who bring real-life accounting experience to the table, are options that offer rewarding careers for those who choose them. I think that will be of real benefit to Albertans in all corners of the province.” The first item on Curtis’s task list in 2014 is to help lead the unification agency’s collaborative work with the Government of Alberta to obtain passage of legislation to formalize the establishment of the CPA
designation in Alberta. Curtis and his colleagues at the unification agency expect legislation to be introduced in the Alberta Legislature in the fall of this year. “I really want to hear from people in Vegreville and surrounding communities about what they think about this project,” Curtis notes. “I know that for most people, what happens in the accounting profession is not top-of-mind. But it is still vital that our profes-

“Rat Free� means that there is no resident population of rats in Alberta; they are not allowed to establish themselves in this province. It does not mean that we never have rats in the province; occasionally, small infestations are found. When found, the rats are isolated and eradicated through proven control methods. When we refer to being “rat free,� we mean free of the Norway Rat and the Roof Rat.
