Fentanyl a concern in every community, say RCMP Michelle Pinon Editor

While there are no indications the use of the highly toxic drug fentanyl is on the increase in Fort Saskatchewan and surrounding area, Cst. Sean Morris feels it remains a concern in all communities.

“Investigations into all drug use will continue to be a priority for not only the General Investigation Unit, but for all members.” Cst. Morris went on to say that criminal investigation is only one avenue in which members of the Fort Saskatchewan RCMP

Detachment combat drugs and drug use within local communities.

“Education and awareness are key in the prevention of drug use.

Programs such are D.A.R.E. assist our youths in making mature and responsible decisions and forces the youths to look at the consequences of their actions.” He added that the school resource officer also assists by providing specific presentations and awareness to targeted groups.

“Officer awareness and education is also necessary. Front line

members need to be aware of what is happening within our community,” pointed out Cst. Morris. RCMP officers also have to be aware of the risks of fentanyl that can be absorbed through the skin or inhaled when it is in the powder form.

RCMP also must know first aid procedures if they are exposed, and always take precautionary measures when dealing with any substance suspected to contain fentanyl.

Health Canada estimates that a lethal dose of pure fentanyl for a typical adult is as little as two milligrams, which

visually, is approximately the size of a few grains of table salt. Even smalller amounts of fentanyl can be dangerous, and any quantity needs to be handled with extreme care. To date, there have been no reported incidents of accidental exposure to fentanyl by law enforcement members, including RCMP. At the present time there are no presumptive test kits that can be used to positively identify the presence of fentanyl versus other opioid drugs such as heroin. The only way to determine whether or not a substance is fentanyl is

through lab analysis.

According to the Canadian Community Epidemiology Network on Drug Use, between 2009 and 2014 there were 655 Canadian deaths directly linked to fentanyl, representing one death every three days.

There have been a total of 1,019 drug poisoning deaths where postmortem toxicological screening indicated the presence of fentanyl, representing an average of two deaths every three days, more than half of which occurred in 2013 and 2014.

Fentanyl can be found in a patch form, in a

powder form, liquid form, and pressed into tablets mimicking the appearance of known pharmaceuticals such as OxyContin.

Illicit fentanyl related seizures and a high incidence rate of user overdoses and deaths are occurring in Canada, and Provincial Government recently announced that proceeds of crime grants will be available to police and their community partners to raise drug awareness and prevention. Cst. Morris confirmed that the Fort Saskatchewan RCMP is currently looking into details about the grant.

Man charged in Hillinger murder near Mundare

PHOTO COURTESY OF ALICE RADKE

Albert Engman celebrated his 90th birthday at the United Church Recreation Centre on Sunday, Jan. 10th along with approximately 80 family members and friends. Engman, who currently resides at Beaverhill Pioneer Lodge, has eight children, 20 grandchildren, 32 great grandchildren, and one great great grandchild. “Iʼve had a wonderful life,” stated Engman, on his special day. He spoke fondly of his late wife June.

The couple were married 65 years, and lived in the communities of Boyle and Star.

Nearly five years after the murder of Ronald Hillinger near Mundare, RCMP have arrested and charged a suspect in the case.

On Monday, Janurary 11th, the RCMP Historical Homicide Unit (HHU) arrested 31year-old Riley Matthew Pearson of Edmonton. Pearson has been charged with one count of First Degree Murder in relation to the homicide of Hillinger.

According to RCMP, “Police are not able to release many details about the investigation as the matter now is before the provincial court, however, it is confirmed that Pearson and Mr. Hillinger knew one another. The date on which Pearson is to

Recent tragedy sparks posting of safety notice Michelle Pinon Editor

In the wake of a recent farm tragedy, Lamont County’s emergency services department posted an educational article on its website.

On Jan. 3rd, a 63-year-old Consort area man died when a propane tank exploded on his rural property. Randy Siemens, Lamont County Fire Chief and Emergency Services Coordinator, knows first hand the dangers of steel drums, and was on scene when St.

Michael area farmer Markus Wendorff was seriously burned when a steel drum he had been welding on caught fire and exploded on Aug. 7, 2013.

Wendorff was badly burned in the explosion that damaged 75 per cent of his body. Miraculously, Wendorff survived, but Siemens can’t emphasize enough that there is no fail-safe method of purging vapors from containers.

The article went on to say, “Never cut drums that have contained flammable liquids or flammable gases,

even drums that have been empty for a flammable liquid or gas, if it was a long time. Rinsing drums with water is chemical, or if there was a hazard dianot a fail-safe method of purging mond on the label, not to heat the drum. vapors from containers.�

Opinion Letter to the Editor, Where did the money go?

In late 2005 some former students of the Beaver Lake School District 222 in Lamont County formed the Beaver Lake Cairn Society (BLCHS) with a Board of Directors (BOD) and Executive (EXC) for the purpose of erecting a school marker (cairn) recognizing the location where a one room school once existed in a rural area of the county.

The society received a very large government grant as well as raised an enormous amount of money from many generous donors and fundraising programs / activities for the purpose

Letter to the Editor

of building the cairn, completing the project in September 2006.

After completion of the cairn project, and having unveiling ceremonies no other work or activity took place on the project or site. After financial issues had been taken care of, the society became inactive. A large sum of money remained in the society bank account. Occasionally some funds were used for expenses such as flags, audit fees, and other insignificant incidentals. Sometime after the project was completed, an additional large grant, but for a lesser amount than the first grant, was received by the BLCHS. Funds from

the society bank account were used for the purpose of erecting a fence at a nearby cemetery, which had no relationship/association with Beaver Lake S.D. 222 and the BLHS. As per the 2014 year end, (October), audited statement, $8,878 remained in the society bank account.

During the inactive period from 2007 to 2015, the members of the BOD and EXC remained the same with little change.

These board and executive members called a dissolution meeting in Oct. 2014 with only a select few being notified.

It was a society requirement and the responsibility of the BOD and the EXC to notify all the

members of the society of the meeting. This was not done. I was notified and I did not attend the meeting. A motion was passed to dissolve the society. The selected few who attended the meeting were a mix of members, (those donating financially to the society), and non-members, (those not donating financially to the society). Non-members were not entitled to vote on the motion (financial issues) although they did.

It was the President’s responsibility to prevent the nonmembers from voting.

Another meeting was held later to proceed with the dissolution. I did not attend, but

became aware of those who did attend. Once again members were NOT notified, only the select few members and non-members, who, no doubt voted on financial issues.

Sometime in late 2014 or early 2015, the Beaver Lake Cairn Historical Society was dissolved.

The members of the society were not notified. I and other members are concerned as to what has happened to the money?

The members of the society have a right to know.

The BOD and the EXC are responsible for notifying all members on financial matters relating to the society dissolvent.

I, along with other members urge the last

serving President and Treasurer to cooperate by showing loyalty, respect and honesty to the members of the now dissolved Beaver Lake Cairn Historical Society by disclosing and informing us as to what happened to the money.

This can be done with a documented report to each member or publication in the local newspaper. I look forward to seeing this happening.

Dave S. Frebrowski, Member and resigned treasurer Beaver Lake Cairn Historical Society

Watch your p’s and q’s So far so good. 2016 I mean. I managed, (with a little help from Sylvia McDonald) to create new account on Facebook the other day. Getting that good intention out of the way so quickly felt very good indeed.

I, along with other Facebook users should tread cautiously when it comes to comments, especially if they are being made at the office.

According to the worldwide company Office Team, that recently surveyed 300 human resource managers, the most common social media mistakes that take job seekers out of the running for a position, (62 per cent) cited writing negative or inappropriate comments.

Other faux pas included: *Not posting regularly, and having incomplete, dated or no social media profiles. *Posting or being tagged in inappropriate or risque photos.

“Anyone currently working in a professional environment or looking to become employed in the near future should pay close attention to how they represent themselves on

social media,” pointed out Koula Vasilopoulos, a District President with Office Team. “In addition to eliminating inappropriate content from their digital accounts, workers should keep their profiles updated and relevant, and make the most of the opportunity to candidly demonstrate their interests and contributions in relation to their chosen field.”

Off-putting remarks and superfluous selfies were also not recommended. Being selective about what you talk about and who you connect with were important considerations to take into account.

For me, Facebook is just another means of communication, and in this day and age, it is beneficial to stay in the loop in any way, shape or form you can. I just hope I don’t get too wrapped up; otherwise I may not be able to extricate myself from the modern day medium.

In the meantime, I guess I’ll try and find a few friends.

Christmas Card campaign cause for grateful celebration Michelle Pinon Editor

Instead of cursing bah humbug, several motorists in Lamont County were rejoicing with a hallelujah, thanks to Peace Officer Steve Crosby.

Crosby, who was out patrolling between Mundare and Andrew on Secondary Highway 855 on Dec. 21 and 22, pulled over 14 motorists for speeding and were issued Christmas Cards instead of tickets.

Inside the Christmas Card it said, “In light of

the season, no ticket for you. We do wish you would slow down, take an extra minute or two.”

Officer Crosby said he received many handshakes, and thank yous during the two day campaign. One lady, who normally would have received a $267 ticket for

From Where I Sit: First

By Hazel Anaka Have your spending or saving habits changed at all with the current economic climate? Is the ‘sky is falling’ rhetoric from economists; federal and provincial finance ministers; business owners; chambers of commerce; financial advisors; credit counselors; the nightly news recap of markets and the dollar; and of course, your buddies getting to you? Is the news, globally and locally, scary enough to stop you in your tracks?

Does it make you anxious? Are you seeking

liquid relief or gambling more than usual in the hope of ‘the big win?’

Apparently Canadians are buying online Powerball tickets for the nearly one billion dollar US lottery prize in unprecedented numbers despite the one in 300 million odds of winning and the hefty tax bite.

All indicators show that life has gotten harder for most of us in Alberta. The ripple effect of low oil prices that led to 60,000 job losses is having a trickle down effect on the rest of the economy. The increase in minimum wage and tinkering with the tax system isn’t helping matters. Food bank usage, crime, and domestic violence are all up. As people curb their spending out of prudence or necessity businesses are hurt and a vicious cycle begins. Less business means fewer jobs, which means more un- or under-employed people.

Those businesses hanging on by a thread close often leaving landlords and creditors holding the

bag. Fewer taxes are collected.

Most of us have lived through this or similar scenarios. Investment portfolios have been beaten to a pulp before.

Think 2008 or the 1980s.

The elderly remember the Great Depression and what behaviours got them through it.

The preceding has been a recitation of all the gloom and doom. I’m no economist but do we not have to maintain some sort of hope, some reasoned spending to keep things going? It’s never wise to spend money we don’t have but maybe we need to try to live through this…..prudently, consciously, pragmatically.

Knowing that this too shall pass; that life and economies and world events are cyclical.

Of course, some of us because of age, circumstance, experience, personality, mental toughness, resourcefulness, are better able to cope. If we never went loco when the prosperity pendulum swung that way, we have

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND ENHANCEMENT ACT NOTICE OF APPLICATION In accordance with the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act, Pembina Marketing Ltd. has applied to Alberta Environment and Parks for a renewal of an existing approval for the former Fort Saskatchewan spent catalyst processing facility. The renewal approval will also amend the existing approval from an operating approval to a decommissioning approval.

less of a rebound to recover from. If we always paid our bills, if we always made our stuff (cars, vacations, clothes, everything) last longer, if we always set aside money for rainy days and our future we need only make adjustments to those already smart behaviours. If, like the grasshopper, we lived just for today, things indeed look grim.

Adjusting our attitude, lowering expectations, bearing down and toughening up are skills we can all hone.

Accepting help from others including social programs can bridge the gap. Resetting our priorities is critical. Learning the required lessons will prepare us for the next cycle, the next pendulum swing. But expressing gratitude for what we do have is first, from where I sit.

More than 1,100 birds spotted Tax incentive program saves during official count day

By Gwynne Hayward Once again, The Friends of Elk Island Society owes a great debt of gratitude to Doug Pewarchuk, for opening up the Elk Island Golf Course Clubhouse for the 116th Annual Christmas Bird Count.

Not only did Fred and Lil Pewarchuk keep the hot drinks flowing all day, but Doug also somehow arranged to have a mule deer pay a visit, and stay long enough for lots of photos!

Because of the mild weather and the posh meeting place, we had 41 participants, and one feeder counter, who saw a total of 1120 birds! We recorded 26 different species, including a White-throated Sparrow, something we haven’t had on our count before, but is spotted in Edmonton occasionally.

Thank you so much to all who participated, especially the Edmonton Nature Club, who teach us so much with every visit, and a big Thanks to Lesley Bishton-Fox, for

her delicious, bottomless Chili. As an added bonus for 2016, Stephen Flemming has offered to lead groups of novice birders, if there is an interest.

We look forward to seeing you all next Boxing Day at the Elk Island Golf Course Clubhouse for the 117th Annual Christmas Bird Count.

The Town of Mundare has found a way to beat the January blues.

No, it’s not an all expense paid trip to a tropical destination; but it is a tempting incentive that will save residents money.

The town will give residents and businesses a five per cent discount on the municipal portion of property taxes if they are paid by Jan. 31st.

Chief Administrative Officer Colin Zyla says the five per cent incentive has been in place for at least 20 years now. “Last year there was approximately 100 people who took advantage of the program.”

For example, if the municipal portion on a tax bill is $2,000; then the resident, and/or business will receive a $100 discount.

The town also offers a monthly installment payment program for accounts in good standing, i.e. all prior years’ taxes have been paid in full.

Shelter in Place survey results SUBMITTED ARTICLE Just 31% of respondents in Life in the Heartland’s recent survey are aware of the safety action to take should a hazardous material be released into the atmosphere. If asked to Shelter in Place, would you know what to do?

A number of products are used in local industrial processes, and are transported by road, rail and pipelines in and through our community every day. “We need to be prepared for all types of emergencies, and hazardous material release is one of them,” says Brenda Gheran, Executive Director with Northeast Region Community Awareness Emergency Response (NRCAER).

“Shelter in Place and staying ‘in’ is equally important as getting out of a burning building.”

Shelter-In-Place means going and remaining safely indoors during the first hours of a release. The steps are: •Remain or go inside •Tune in to local radio/TV/social media •Close and lock all windows and doors •Turn down furnace and shut off fans/vents that draw outdoor air inside

•Stay tuned to local radio/TV/social media for updates from response authorities When you Shelter-In-Place, air exchanges are reduced into and out of a building, providing a ‘bubble’ of good air. This prevents exposure to peak chemical concentrations, until they are dispersed by wind and weather conditions, the hazard has passed, or other appropriate emergency actions can be taken.

You may be asked to Shelter-InPlace when: •there isn’t enough time or warning to safely evacuate •a release is expected to pass over the area quickly •the source and nature of the release has not yet been determined •a safe evacuation route has yet to be verified •evacuation assistance is needed Family members should not be brought home from work or

school, which Gheran says is difficult for parents especially. Schools have Shelter-In-Place plans and it’s safest for everyone to stay put until there is no longer a danger.

“Releases are not always visible, so even if you think it looks ok, it may not be. It’s best to wait until local authorities give the all clear.”

To get up to date information, register for municipal alerting systems, as well as the Alberta Emergency Alert. Links can be found at www.nrcaer.com/notification.

One of the highlights of the New Yearʼs Eve celebration is when the cast parade around the dance floor. Many in the audience were surprised when cast members took off their masks to reveal their true identity.

Many of them were newbie’s to the St. Michael Malanka cast, but there was no shyness when it came time to perform during the Jan. 9th Ukrainian New Year’s Eve celebration.

MC Mae Adamyk told the story of Ukrainian New Years Eve, Malanka which predates Christianity. “As a result, many superstitious beliefs had great significance in the observance of such festivities. Once Christianity arrived, some of these traditions and rituals remained,

while other were discarded. therefore, there existed many variations of such traditions throughout the various regions of Ukraine.

These traditions have been carried on to today, and Malanka will continue to be celebrated in St. Michael for many years to come thanks to the volunteer members of the St. Michael & District Agricultural Society.

In the words of Adamyk, “It is definitely exciting and interesting to study the rich history of our ancestors, their traditions, rituals, folk songs and tales which portrayed their way of life. From the past, we learn for the future.”

Take the pulse pledge Michelle Pinon Editor

D’Arcy Hilgartner has been growing pulse crops since the early 1990’s, and not only encourages Lamont County producers to look at growing the earth friendly crops, but also increasing their intake of peas and lentils in their daily diet.

Hilgartner, a Camrose area producer and zone five director for the Alberta Pulse Growers, (APG), grows yellow and green peas in addition to his regular crops, and says the price for lentils has been at record high levels for the last several years. Dollar for dollar, lentils cost the least to produce and net the most in return as far as crops go.

“Anytime you can introduce a new crop into your rotation, it enhances biodiversity.” Hilgartner also likes the fact that peas fixate their own nitrogen, which eliminates the need of adding nitrogen fertilizer to the soil in the spring. He also likes the fact that he can plant peas earlier in the spring than conventional crops, and take them off earlier in August as well. The key is good germination in the spring, and he advises local producers to start small and get a feel for the crop to begin with.

“Canada is one of the world leaders in pulse production, and Alberta is only second to Saskatchewan when it comes to domestic production. According to APG, this past growing season, Alberta farmers grew pulses on 1.8 million acres.

Besides increasing local production, Hilgartner says APG is also trying to increase pulse consumption by 100 grams per capita per week. The organization, along with the United Nations have announced 2016 as the International Year of Pulses, and last Wednesday, Jan. 6th, launched its Pulse Feast in Toronto that was hosted by celebrity chef Michael Smith of Food Network Canada.

The International Year of Pulses Canada Committee consists of representatives from APG and its counterparts in other provinces, Pulse Canada, and industry representatives. The goal is to leverage the international focus on pulses to build more demand for the pulses that Canadian growers are producing on home soil.

The children of the late Marguerite Burr wish to thank our family and friends for the support we have received since the passing of our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. For the many gestures of sympathy and gifts of kindness, we are truly grateful. We would like to thank everyone who attended the service, and especially those who drove or flew a distance to be here. Our appreciation to Todd and Harry Creech and staff of Creech’s Funeral Home for their guidance and professionalism in helping us plan Mom’s memorial, and to the Village Office and Cemetery staff for their assistance. A huge thanks to our school friends, Diana, Jennifer, and Tara and their families for surprising us with their help setting up the gym. We wish to thank Rev. Ken Flanagan for leading the service and his comforting words, Jackie Darling for the music and the United Church Choral Group for their beautiful song. Our appreciation to Mary Newton and Doug Coubrough for the memories shared in their community tribute. We also wish to thank the Holt Colony ladies for baking the buns and the United Church ladies for preparing and serving the lovely lunch.

Mom loved the Irma community and we are very thankful for the love and support shown to her and all of her family.

Sincerely, Bev and Bruce Munro and family, Patricia Burr, Wendy and Bill Holt and family, Brian Burr and family 01p

20 - The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), Tuesday, January 12, 2016

HELP has just launched its 2016 Tree Shelterbelt campaign for farms, acreage owners, towns and schools in the Prairie Provinces.

100% of the trees HELP produces are now container roots. This means that the 12 to 30 inch seedlings have a solid plug of soil on the root. This innovation allows the seedlings to be shipped and planted while dormant or in full leaf with little to no transplant set back HELP has kept its promise that the tree cost of $1.50 per regular seedling for shelterbelt quantities of 300 or more trees (global order) will not see any increase now nor into the foreseeable future. Fifty Trees or more qualify for this Shelterbelt Program, and are considered a shelterbelt or environmental program.

1st Place - Benhard Wall, Andrew School
