Successful hockey camp includes skills training, team building and barbeque

PHOTO PROVIDED BY TOWN OF VIKING Patricia Harcourt Editor Reports are in that this year’s Viking Hockey Camp was another successful event for players, coaches and organizers. The camp ran from July 14-19 at the Viking Carena Complex and is defined as an all-skills camp stressing “age-appropriate fundamental training.” On-ice skills included skating, puck handling, passing, shooting, and team play. Off the ice, there were other activities like dryland training, yoga,

mindset and team building. The camp helped every hockey student starting from any skill level to increase his or her knowledge base and confidence while enjoying themselves on the ice. It has also been described as an “action packed week of drills, games and unforgettable memories.” Players from U7 to U18 were accepted to this camp led by professional coaches who provided personalized instruction in a fun and positive environment. Duane, Darryl, and Chris Sutter were on hand to help the coaches on the ice. Then off the ice, a bar-

beque was held for the Viking Hockey Camp family courtesy of the Viking Elks Club. There, the hockey legends shared stories and showed the awe struck young players their NHL rings. During the camp, the Viking Golf and Country Club became the venue for team building games. And all week there were many volunteers and Carena staff helping out behind the scenes. Organizers are already planning for next year’s camp in the hopes it can continue to grow in popularity. See more photos on Page 2

Blue-green algae advisory issued for Clear Lake Patricia Harcourt Editor

With the intense heat of late, it is not surprising that a bluegreen algae advisory has been issued for a lake in the region. Alberta Health Services (AHS) warns there is algae in the waters of Clear Lake located southeast of Irma. Formally called Cyanobacteria, AHS is telling local residents of the area and visitors to take precautions and avoid coming into contact with this algae. This means avoiding the algae’s blooms in the water. If contact does happen, wash the algae off as soon as possible with tap water. Neither people nor pets can swim or wade in the water in any place where the algae is visible. And pets must also not eat any whole fish or fish trimmings that come out of the lake. As for human consumption of such fish, AHS asks that you consider limiting this intake as “fish may store toxins in their liver.” It was also noted, however, that “people

can safely consume fish fillets from this lake.” Visitors and residents are also being reminded that generally it is recommended that they never cook or drink untreated water taken directly from any recreational body of water, including Clear Lake, at any time. “Boiling of this water will not remove the toxins produced by cyanobacteria,” states

AHS. “An alternative source of drinking water should be provided for pets and livestock, while this advisory is active.” The algae commonly appears where there is calm waters and looks like scum, grass clippings, fuzz or globs on the surface of the water. It can be several varieties of algae including bluegreen, greenish brown, brown and/or pinkish

red. It often can have a musty or grassy smell. Symptoms that can develop after coming into contact with or ingesting the algae are skin irritation, rash, sore throat, sore red eyes, swollen lips, fever, nausea and vomiting, as well as diarrhea.

The symptoms manifest themselves within one to three hours and will resolve in one or two days. Children’s symptoms can be more pronounced. Note that the algae can be fatal for pets. The advisory for Clear Lake will remain

in effect until further notice. AHS notes that the algae is capable of moving around the lake due to weather and wind conditions. However, recreational use of areas of the lake where there are no algae blooms visible is still possible.

Viking moves to delay three Town of Viking to initiate policy decisions - cites time community recognition awards needed to go through large number of documents Patricia Harcourt Editor

Patricia Harcourt Editor

Viking Mayor James Buttner requested a delay in passing three policy updates citing lack of time to go through all the documents prior to the meeting. Buttner stated he had just returned from holidays prior to the July 15 council meeting, and needed time to go through the documents. Three policies were on the agenda for adoption by council. The policies had been reviewed by consultant Nolan Crouse who provided a list of recommended changes to each of them. “The update made to the policies are meant to modernize and bring them to industry

standard,” explained the report to council. Buttner, in asking for a delay, explained, “I haven’t had time to go through the policies,” asking what the other councillors wanted to do. The policies include the town’s administrative, financial and human resources policies. The mayor felt they were fairly lengthy in nature and he required more time to peruse before decisions were made. All three policies carried the recommendation that council supports by motion the reviewed changes proposed by administration and consultant Nolan Crouse for them. Council was informed that administration was set to start working on

three more policy reviews, which will follow the three presented to them that night. “These are ready to go,” said Tammy Voltner on behalf of administration. But Buttner stated his preference for council to deal with one policy at a time, which would mean dealing with each in turn and followed up on with questions or comments from council. “I am trying to be courteous to administration,” he said. “As elected officials it’s our duty to do our best and this in my opinion is our best option.” His motion to put the matter of the three policies over to the regular meeting in August was carried. “It’s a big task,” agreed CAO Doug Lefsrud.

Viking Council is moving forward with an administrative initiative to further recognize the important contribution of volunteers in the community. A motion by Councillor Judy Acres to support administration in creating Town of Viking Community Awards “to recognize outstanding volunteers in our community” was passed at council’s July 15 regular meeting. The report to council explained the reasoning behind the move: “The Town of Viking has seen the need to better recognize the many amazing volunteers in our community,” states Morgan Lawes, administrative summer student. The recent strategic planning session by council and administra-

tion resulted in the idea of creating a recognition program “to show our appreciation of the many volunteers and community groups that keep our community vibrant,” said the report. Nominations would come from individuals and groups, who could pick members of their group to put forward for recognition. “There would be a yearly opportunity to submit nominations and to partner with community groups and organizations to present these awards to their members,” she said. Council and administration would, along with local businesses and community groups, would choose the recipients of this recognition based on the nominees submitted. Award presentations would be tailored to suite the needs of the recipient.

Council was also presented with several ideas for what type of recognition could take place. This could include dinner presentations such as at the Christmas luncheon in December or a separate event that would be open to the public. Social media could feature a story, framed portraits could be placed in the town office, or a. day declared by the mayor for each recipient. “There are people in the community who deserve recognition as well as some groups,” said town CAO Doug Lefsrud, noting Viking/Beaver FCSS also puts on a very good volunteer appreciation luncheon every year for all volunteers. Council’s motion to support the initiative directed administration to begin planning for the community recognition awards program.

WORD ON THE STREET

RCMP deal with fake jewellery scam On July 16, police responded to a complaint of a male standing on the highway, in the middle lanes. Members located a 31year-old-male who was provided a courtesy ride. On July 17, police received a complaint of theft. The complainant advised he stopped to help a motorist on Highway 14; the motorist advised he was out of gas and was trying to sell jewellery to the complainant for cash. The complainant did not purchase any jewellery and called police. Members located the vehicle and the subject had changed his story saying he was looking for directions to Calgary. Police had the male turn his key on and found the vehicle had a half tank of gas. Police are aware of fake jewellery scams and the male was warned and asked to leave the area. There was not enough evidence to proceed with any charges; the complainant was updated. That evening, police responded to a suspicious vehicle parked in the middle of the roadway. Police located the vehicle and spoke with the driver who advised he worked for a Chrysler dealership in Edmonton and had run out of gas. Members waited with

the male until he received gas; he was issued a violation ticket under the Traffic Safety Act for operating a motor vehicle without licence in possession. That same evening, police responded to a structure fire in Bruce. When members arrived fire and EMS were on scene and the fire department had the fire contained. No one was injured, and the fire investigator determined there was nothing suspicious found. There was no further evidence for police, and the complainant was updated. Later that evening, police responded to an alarm in Bruce. It was determined to be a false alarm. That same evening, police received a complaint of a male walking on the train tracks. The male was located and refused to identify himself. He was given a ride to Viking. The complainant was updated. On July 18, police responded to a complaint of a dog in a crate located in the box of a truck. The complainant was concerned for the animal due to the high temperatures. Members made patrols and were unable to locate the vehicle. On July 19, police received a complaint of an alarm in Kinsella. The key holder was spoken to and it was

learned that the property was currently being cleaned which triggered the alarm. That same morning, police received a complaint of a theft of diesel from a business in Viking. The complainant provided photos of a truck that indicated the syphoning of diesel from a tractor in their parking lot. This matter is still under investigation. That afternoon, police received a complaint of an erratic driver. The complainant advised they saw a Peterbilt truck that was unable to maintain its lane of traffic. The complainant provided the company name on the side of the truck. Police are continuing to follow up with the truck company. That same afternoon, police were advised of a Fedex van that had broken down on the roadway and was having trouble finding a tow company to assist them. The vehicle was moved off of the roadway and the driver was picked up by another Fedex employee. Later that afternoon, police received a complaint of a break and enter at a rural property. The complainant advised that his out-

building was broken into and several hand tools were stolen. Due to the time delay and lack of evidence left at the scene, police were unable to further their investigation. On July 20, police received a panic alarm at a rural residence. The property owner was spoken to and police were advised everything was okay; she was struggling with the password. On July 21, police received a complaint of a vehicle with flashing lights at a rural property. The complainant advised there are bees on the property and was concerned they may be stealing the bees. A patrol to the location was made and no vehicles were found. That afternoon, police received a panic alarm at a business in Viking. The key holder was contacted and it was determined that the cleaners had set off the alarm. During this time period, police also dealt with several motor vehicle collisions involving deer. They also issued violation tickets and warnings for various traffic offences. The Viking RCMP is warning the public about a group of con Continued on Page 16

OPINION

Want to have your say? Write a Letter: vikingweeklyreview@gmail.com (all opinions must be signed to be published)

JOHN’S RANT Canadians still divided and upset 30 years after study our artists - who, outside Quebec, tend to be eloquent, but often voluptuously anxious about Canada; and inside Quebec studiedly indifferent . “Let’s be honest: we’re all a bit guilty of running down Canada. Dumping on this sprawling, fragile nation without nationality is our homegrown idea of flag- waving. The only exceptions? Recent immigrants who haven't yet got the hang of it.” During the course of its open houses, the Commission received an additional 7,056 letters, and another 3,000 individuals used kits designed by the commissioners for individual responses to the commission. Additionally the commission reached out not only to include a youth consultation comment, but also ventured to the level of elementary school students seeking their input. Within a year it had received reports from 4,575 classrooms and that included participation by 106,393 students. “But in its own way, the Forum worked,” the report states. “It was an honest process. It worked because citizens themselves wanted it to work. Except among French-speaking Quebeckers and aboriginal peoples, the people took ownership of the process.” But there was discontent in the nation The report continues, ”Early in April, in Drayton Valley, Alberta, a man came to the Forum to return his war medals, which he had brought with him. Why? Because he was now ashamed of being a Canadian, watching people tear apart the country – he had fought for.”

I’m catching up on some reading and one of the books I’m currently reading is a biography by renowned Canadian journalist Roy McGregor. The book was a birthday gift from my sister. The tome starts off slowly, but then McGregor gets into his travels through sports and politics in this country from the mid-1970s to the past ten years. In one section he discusses his reporting on the Keith Spicer commission set up by the Mulroney government in the early 1990s entitled the ‘Citizen’s Forum on Canada’s Future.’ The commissioners on this committee travelled Canada from coast to coast hosting open houses to listen to ordinary Canadians tell what they thought of our beautiful country. The commission lasted from Nov. 1990 to June 1991. In his final report, Spicer in his Chairman’s forward states, “Seen from abroad by both foreigners and Canadians, Canada looks like paradise. Long queues of immigrants seeking freedom, tolerance and prosperity - say so. “So does the United Nations: apart from calling on us routinely as a trusted peacekeeper, it estimates that we enjoy the second highest level of "human development" on earth (after Japan, based on literacy, schooling, life expectancy, national wealth) . “Yet seen from within, Canada looks to Canadians like a pessimist’s nightmare of Hell. That's the message we get from almost all our elites politicians, bureaucrats, media, business and unions, even, sometimes,

So let’s fast forward 30 years to today. This country is still fragmented. Our standing in the world order has plummeted in recent years. The west is totally alienated from the mob ruling the country from Ottawa. While the Spicer Commissioner, as the CFCF was also called, targeted a strong dislike for Prime Minister Brian Mulroney at the time, would a similar inquiry if it were to held today show any different results other than a nation-wide strong dislike of Justin Trudeau and his surrogate Jagmeet Singh. Trudeau and his Liberals, with the help of the NDP, have divided this nation calling ordinary Canadians systematic racists all the while dropping our status on the international scene. The woke policies of the government are killing our industries - not only the energy industry in Alberta and the west, but other industries in Ontario and Quebec. In the US as the now resigned from contention Joe Biden fades into irrelevance and Donald Trump, following the Republican Convention, seems to be rising like a shooting star, Canada

really faces an uncertain future. Trump says he will automatically kill electric vehicle production mandates if elected. Meanwhile Trudeau has spent billions of our dollars subsidizing battery plants in Ontario and Quebec which will die a lonely death if this happens. Ford, the company, not Ontario premier, has announced they are halting production of EVs at the Oakville assembly plant in favour of pick up trucks, diesel and gas powered. The car makers know their markets so what does this tell us about EVs? I couldn’t find a final cost of the Spicer report 30 years ago, but undoubtedly it cost millions of dollars. And our governments have learned nothing. NOTHING! Thirty years on there is discontent because the Federal government won’t listen to the people who vote. Ordinary Canadians like you and me. It’s not Canadians who are the problem. It’s the government. And that has to change.

Viking Council deals with housekeeping issues Patricia Harcourt Editor

Viking Council passed a motion by Councillor Julianna Merta to support administration in giving certain employees and councillors the necessary signing authority regarding a local financial institution. The names included Mayor James Buttner, Deputy Mayor Cindy Lefsrud, CAO Doug Lefsrud and employee Tammy Voltner.

An update was also made for Town of Viking staff to have access to Canada Post for mail and parcel pickup. A motion by Deputy Mayor Lefsrud was passed for council to acknowledge and support the listed 11 members of town staff as having the authority to pick up mail and parcels on behalf of the town. Council also passed a motion by Councillor Dana Ewashko changing the wording of a previous motion appointing persons to the Viking

Municipal Library Board. The request was made by Ken Allan, library legislative advisor for the Public Library Services Branch at the Government of Alberta. In her report to council, Administrative Summer Student Morgan Lawes said Allan “noted that it was very important that the names of those appointed to the board are specifically named in the appointment motion.” As well, council and CAO Lefsrud

received an invitation to the Claystone Waste Ltd. Shareholder Dinner on Thursday, Aug. 22. The event will be held at the Coal Creek Golf Resort. The invitation from Lavonne Svensen, Claystone corporate secretary, stated that “…this will be an excellent opportunity to network and strengthen connections with you.” Council agreed to direct the CAO by motion to RSVP for himself and those members of council who would be available to attend the dinner.

Province announces sheriff surveillance squads to help combat rural crime John Mather Staff Reporter

The provincial government announced last week it will spend $4.3 million to provide tow plainclothes squads of Alberta sheriffs to conduct surveillance in rural areas supporting local RCMP in battling rural crime. Making the announcement in Carstairs, July 18, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Services Mike Ellis said, “Criminals and organized crime are not welcome in Alberta. Full stop. “The addition of two new surveillance teams will further support our law enforcement partners in stamping out criminal activity in

Alberta’s rural areas. The two eight man team will be stationed with one in Calgary and a second unit in Edmonton. When asked if the teams will patrol rural areas in smaller teams, Ministerial staff wouldn’t answer directly. “This is about supporting local investigations to address local crime in our smaller communities. “Together, both teams will form another key component of Alberta’s efforts to combat crime and ensure Albertans feel safe at home and in their communities, regardless of where they live,” said Arthur Green, press secretary for the Minister. “Details on deployment, includ-

ing staffing, resources, and length of time, are determined on a caseby-case basis in close collaboration with the police agency of jurisdiction.” The teams will be made up of one staff sergeant and seven sheriff members. Both teams are now fully staffed and operational, ready to fight crime in rural areas across Alberta. RCMP detachments and local

police services identifying problem areas can put in a request to the teams, which are then assigned on a case-by-case basis. Alberta Sheriff Superintendent Mike Letourneau noted that as the teams get more engaged and the request queue gets longer, the priority will shift focus to surveilling repeat offenders and, hopefully, begin catching them in the act of committing crime.

Beaver County gives $5,000 for ag-related mental heath funding Patricia Harcourt Editor

Beaver County Council considered a request for $2,000 to help agricultural producers with their mental health. Instead, council upped the ante and agreed to give $5,000 as suggested by Deputy Reeve Gene Hrabec (Division 3). The funds were requested by the organization AgKnow, which recently made a presentation at Beaver County’s Agricultural Service Board (ASB) meeting. The ASB passed the request along to Beaver County as a recommendation for an unspecified amount of funding to be given. Mental health on farms and ranches in the province was recognized as becoming an issue of concern in 2018 when the provin-

cial ASB and Rural Municipalities of Alberta (RMA) passed resolutions on the subject. AgKnow developed from this initiative. Agriculture Fieldman Jonathan Culbert put the request to county council July 15 explaining the request arose due to lack of funding. “AgKnow provides access to critical mental health services for farmers and their families but faces challenges in securing long-term stable funding support,” he said. Funding ended in April of this year when the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership program grants provided through the province and federal governments expired. These were one-year grants only. With the last grant having run

out, the organization is seeking long-term funding from the province in order to keep going. “But (it) needs bridge funding until an agreement is reached,” he said. “Although AgKnow has received some bridge funding support from industry partners and other municipalities, they do not have adequate funds to cover their operating expenses for August 2024. “As a result of these struggles, AgKnow is requesting a one-time contribution of $2,000 from Beaver County.” Linda Hunt, program director for AgKnow,

which stands for Alberta Farm Mental Health Network, also made a plea for funding support. “Your support will enable us to continue to invest in programs that prioritize the mental health and well being of farming communities,” she said, “while we negotiate longer-term agreements with the Ministry of Mental Health and Addiction and the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation. “Together we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of Alberta’s farmers, and the rural communities

they support.” Hrabec said the county should contribute $5,000 instead of the requested $2,000. “The program itself has caught on,” he said. “People didn’t know the services are done pro bono. The need is growing.” “I beleive it’s a very good cause,” said Councillor Dale Pederson (Division 5), calling it “a reason for (county budget) reserves to be there.” The motion that was passed stated the funds would be derived equally between the county’s Community Support Request pro-

gram and the Ag Service Board appreciation budget. Reeve Kevin Smook (Division 1) called the contribution “a great example of a real need being answered.” In a survey provided by AgKnow, 67 per cent of those responding stated it was important to have a counsellor who was informed about agriculture to see a person in the farming community. Also, 60 per cent of these farm respondents stated they had received counselling themselves or have had a family member who received counselling.

Beaver County responds to Town of Viking’s decision on culvert project Submitted After two and a half years of inter-municipal discussion, Beaver County received a letter from the Town of Viking regarding the culvert replacement project, advising of their decision to “shelve” the initiative for the time being. The culvert replacement project was initially requested by the Town of Viking following the receipt of their Stormwater Management Plan in 2021. This plan recommended drainage upgrades on Range Road 130 to ensure proper water flow through the town and to potentially reduce the risk of flooding. However, during discussions, the town requested the installation of

water flow control gates on the new culverts to withhold water for the Viking Golf and Country Club’s irrigation. The county raised concerns, as withholding water is not supported or recommended in the Stormwater Management Plan. In an effort to reach a compromise and demonstrate goodwill, Beaver County agreed to cover the entire cost of the culverts. However, the county could not agree to fund the water flow control gates, as these are required under the water diversion license held by the Viking Golf and Country Club, which is legally responsible for diverting and controlling the water. It is the county’s standard prac-

tice to use written construction agreements for all joint projects to protect both parties and clearly assign responsibilities. This helps prevent confusion and ensures clarity, especially regarding any impact on county or town infrastructure. After consulting with legal representatives, the county drafted an agreement that would allow the town to install, maintain, and operate the water flow control gates while protecting the county from any potential liabilities. However, the town chose to not to sign the agreement. For these reasons, Beaver County Council regrets to announce that the replacement of the culvert on Range Road 130 will not proceed.

However, the county will continue to maintain and upgrade infrastructure according to our road maintenance and culvert replacement program criteria. Throughout this process, Beaver County Council has been mindful and respectful of the relationship between the two municipalities. To maintain this positive relationship, all project discussions were held confidentially in council closed sessions and inter-municipal committee meetings. Beaver County will continue to work towards cooperative solutions that benefit all parties involved. Tracey Popick Communications Coordinator Beaver County

4 - Beaver County Chronicle, July 24, 2024

Fire and water restrictions put into effect due to dry conditions Unrelenting heat and little rain has led to both fire and water restrictions put into effect for all areas of Beaver County starting July 22. On that day, the Highway 14 Regional Water Services Commission entered into a Water Demand Management Condition ‘A,’ effectively banning municipal operations that use non-essential potable water. The same day, Beaver Emergency Services Commission (BESC) put a fire restriction into effect, upgrading a previous fire advisory. The ban on nonessential use of potable water covers all of Beaver County, including all municipalities, both urban and rural, within its borders, and Kingman and Round Hill. The same applies to the fire restriction which includes all towns, villages, and hamlets within the county borders, as well as the county itself. “The water use ban is expected to last until we receive sufficient relief in the form of rainfall,” stated the water commission in its notification. As for BESC, it stated: “There is an increased risk of wildfire due to dry conditions and prolonged high temperatures.” The Water Commission has listed the activities that use potable water which municipalities are now restricted from using.

They include hydraulic flushing, street sweeping, irrigation, sewer flushing, fire fighting training, the washing of fleet vehicles including buses, filling pools and any other water use considered non-essential. All water used for non-human consumption is considered nonessential in nature. The water commission also explained that “the restriction will help reduce demand on the water supply and may prevent public water bans,” which would be a Condition ‘B’ restriction. A Condition ‘C’ would mean a water ban that prohibits the general public from all non-essential water use. BESC had previously imposed a water advisory that prevented the burning of wood/log piles of brush. But the dry conditions have forced a further upgrade to the fire restriction. The BESC fire restriction notice states that all existing fire permits are cancelled and open burns must be extinguished. Fire permits will not be issued during the fire restriction. All open air burning, including large and small brush piles consisting of leaves and/or tree prunings used for yard cleanup are prohibited. Also prohibited are fireworks and exploding targets. But fires in

approved fire pits and appliances that don’t require a fire permit are still allowed. Other activities such as welding, grinding and ATVs can be a source of causing a fire and extra caution must be exerted when doing them. Conditions will continue to be monitored and BESC states that if a complete fire ban is required it will be issued without further notice. Updates will be provided at www.besc.ca and www.albertafirebans.ca.

artists running a "fake gold scam" throughout Alberta and British Columbia. Since 2020, there have been reported incidents of this scam every year in Alberta and British Columbia, with the most recent being this week. The scam involves multiple people and an elaborate con, and can change from one scenario to the next. In the most recent incident near Viking, a man, a woman and small child pulled off the highway stating they were out of gas and were trying to sell jewellery to the complainant for cash. In some iterations of this scam, the fraudsters appear to be affluent, sometimes even claiming to be very wealthy foreigners from the Middle East, and state that they are in some kind of trouble (for example, they are unable to access their money through their for-

eign bank accounts) but they offer expensive gold jewellery in return that is later discovered to be fake. They can put on a very compelling show, and unfortunately prey on people’s trust and kindness. We are hoping that by sharing this information with the public, we can help prevent locals from becoming victims, because it does happen in small towns. Examples and tips for recognizing a Fake Gold Scam: - A scammer approaches their victim and offers to sell them gold jewellery; a transaction is completed and the victim later discovers the gold is not real. - The scammer approaches an individual and asks for money, often claiming they have lost their wallet and need money for hospital bills or to escape an abusive domestic relationship. In this scenario, the con artist offers gold jewellery to the victim as collateral. The victim later discovers the gold is not

real and does not hear back from the suspect. - The scammers sometimes gift their victim gold as thanks for giving them directions. When the victim declines, the scammers take their jewellery back along with the victim's jewellery. - The scammers are usually both adult males or adult females, and oftentimes appear South Asian or Middle Eastern, and sometimes claim to be from the Middle East. - The scammers are usually associated to and travelling around in rental vehicles, sometimes with small children. Anyone who is approached by such a group should walk away and immediately call 911. If you have already been approached by a person or group with this type of motive, please call your local police and make a report.

Smoke from wildfires in BC, northern Alberta, and northern Saskatchewan has drifted into Beaver County, creating a haze and bringing with it the smoky smell. This picture taken Monday, July 22, at Shonts, was measured at a 4 on the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) which poses moderate health risk.
