They didn’t like my religion.” Over the course of six years, more than six million Jews were murdered by the Nazi’s. Olsson begged the students never to use the word hate. “This is Canada, where we need to love each other.” Olsson asked the students what they would do if they were bullied, and encouraged them to speak out against bullying and tell their parents and teachers. “When I was bullied I didn’t have anyone to tell.” The Germans came for Olsson and her family in the spring of 1944 when they invaded Hungary. “They marched us to the train station seven miles away.” Between 100 and 110 people were crammed into a single box car. “It was standing room only.” There they stood for four days and four nights. “On May 19, 1944 we arrived in Germany,” Auschwitz-Birkenan. “We came to the gate where PHOTO COURTESY OF ANDREW SCHOOL the doctor of death, Dr. Holocaust survivor Eva Olsson, middle, poses for a photo with Medow, left, and Josef Mengele, stood. “He Tammy Evans following an emotional presentation to Andrew and Lamont stu- didn’t talk.

I wanted to give her a hug, to tell her I loved her, to tell her I was sorry I disobeyed her.” Olsson never had the chance to say those words. Her mother was killed. “She was 48.” Olsson saw other prisoners waiting in line walking to the gas chambers. There were many mass executions. Even though her father was not executed; he was starved to death, and only lived six months after becoming a slave labourer. She believes it was the spirit of her mother that kept her alive during the darkest days, and she would not give up hope. She did whatever she could to make sure her younger sister did not die. “Her spirit was always there,” pointing to her heart, “and it still is there today.” “No amount of money can ever buy another family...I’m asking you please to never take your family for granted.” That is also why she believes that the only thing that matters in life is “when we love.” She also urged students to be compassionate. “When you feel for another person it makes you a stronger person when you grow up.” While Olsson cannot change the past, she is doing what she can to change the future, and asked the students to be cognizant of what they say and do, and think about what kind of legacy they want to leave behind. “We all learn and teach by example.”

There have, and will continue to be changes on the firefighting front, in both the communities of Andrew and Chipman. Randy Siemens, Fire Chief and Emergency Services Co-ordinator with Lamont County, says he will not be filling the fire chief positions for both those department for about a year. “I will oversee both stations for issue that come up and are out of the scope for the station officers. During this next year, the officers will be given a chance to develop by taking courses and gaining experience,” stated Siemens. “When the candidates feel confident and have shown skill improvement and a willingness to work as a team, I will assist them in moving up into the position.” Following the Village of Andrew’s

decision to restructure and reorganize its fire department under the umbrella of Lamont County; it created a vacancy in the fire chief’s position. Back in December of 2014, village council decided to “unappoint” Barry Goertz as its fire chief. In the case of the Village of Chipman, in late December, council decided not to renew its fire services agreement with Lamont County, and to establish its own, independent fire department to serve only village residents. In the new year, Fire Chief Steve Rasmussen announced he would be moving on to the new rural fire department, and had accepted the position of fire chief after the offer was made to him by Siemens. Unfortunately, and unexpectedly, Rasmussen died suddenly on March 8, 2015.

Lamont County to spend estimated $30,000 to develop road allowance Michelle Pinon Editor
After months of research, photos and videos, as well as on-site visits by agricultural and public works employees, county council recently voted in favour of developing a road allowance on the far northeastern tip of the municipality. On March 10th, all but one member of Lamont County council voted in favour of proceeding with construction on Range Road 160 on the undeveloped portion of the road based on the non-engineering standards, as was the recommended action of Chief Administrative Officer Al Harvey. The lone voice of dissent came from Division 3 Councillor Roy Bryks. “I don’t agree with anything you guys said,” commented Bryks during discussion. Despite his objection, council went ahead and voted on the motion. Bryks asked for a recorded vote, and then council voted 4-1 in favour of proceeding with the project. Back on Feb. 10th, council made a motion to “direct administration to send a letter to the land owner, Mr. Marianicz outlining the scope of work and costs for the upgrading of the undeveloped road allowance of Range Road 160 at SW 31-58-15 W4.” The motion went on to state, “That Lamont County Council postpone their decision on the undeveloped road allowance subject to receiving a letter from Mr. Marianicz in which he agrees with the maximum scope of work that the county is prepared to offer.” That motion carried. Then on Feb. 18th, George Marianicz stated in writing on an email that was directed to CAO Harvey, “Re: Motion 14-490 Undeveloped Road Allowance. I accept your proposal. Yours truly, George Marianicz.” Originally Harvey estimated the scope of work to cost just over $15,000. However, during discus-
sion at the March 10th meeting, it was disclosed that the brush work alone would be around $12,700. “Then this figure isn’t the right figure,” commented Warawa, who received confirmation that the cost would be somewhere between $27,000 and $30,000. Public Works Director Harold Hamilton told council that when the proposal was being put together, they didn’t have the numbers for dirt and mowing. CAO Harvey said that the oversight was his mistake. “I apologize; it was my fault.” Harvey said they would be taking the roadway and widening it out to be more useful. However, it was pointed out earlier in the discussion that this road is not being currently used. Council was also informed during initial discussions many months ago that the reason for Marianicz’s request was to be able to access 60 acres of his land to access his fields along the North Saskatchewan River. According to the scope of work that was outlined in an email from public works to CAO Harvey: “Proposed program will be to cut the slopes of the road that was moved under the ASB program with grader(s) to allow wide enough access that up to 25 ft. farm equipment will have the availability to travel between the ditch lines which will allow access to the fields.” The email went on to state: “Shane Eleniak and I did an assessment on Range Road 160 north of Township 584 for improving the road width to approximately 25 feet. Starting at the top, there is minimal work to clean up after brusher. At first hair pin turn, with it being approximately 12 feet wide. A D6 CAT and track hoe will need to remove extra brush to access clay to widen the existing road and construct at least two foot high berm along the side

This gravel pit, which is owned by Lamont County, is located on Range Road 160 north of Township Road 584. Further north along the same road is another gravel pit, as well as the undeveloped portion of the road that leads to farmland adjacent to the North Saskatchewan River.
Undeveloped Road Allowances POLICY 5139 Approved in 2010. Policy Statement: “It is the responsibility of Lamont County to manage, direct and control the use of undeveloped road allowances and road plans within its boundaries by ensuring the most appropriate use and best utilization of them. Lamont County is under no obligation to develop of lease undeveloped road allowances on behalf of landowners or industry. Lamont County is under no obligation to hydro axe an undeveloped road allowance on behalf of landowners or industry. Applications or requests to lease undeveloped road allowances will not be considered.” for safety. The next hair pin will also need D6 CAT and track hoe to remove brush. Push clay across existing road to widen to 25 feet and construct a two foot berm for safety also constructing a drainage ditch as water flows from the fields at this point. Approximately 250 tonne of 4-40m gravel will be required to regravel the road.” Reeve Wayne Woldanski asked, “If council does approve it (developing the road allowance), is there a possibility of tying it into gravel exploration and have it tested because there are adjacent gravel sources on the banks of the North Saskatchewan?” Hamilton asked coun-
cil if testing of the gravel would be included in the motion? Wo l d a n s k i responded that they should make a separate motion. In that m o t i o n Woldanski specified that only the tax roll number, and not the legal land description, be included in the motion. “We don’t need to publicize that we’re doing the exploration,” s t a t e d Woldanski. The motion was made by coun. Dan Warawa and This a view of the undeveloped road allowance that leads to was carried. the river. Recent evidence of brush clearing was found along the left embankment.
4 - The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), Tuesday, March 31, 2015
Opinion GUEST EDITORIAL: Bill 20 Transparent - Like A Brick Albertans had high hopes that things would operate differently under savior Prentice who campaigned for the job of Tory leader with promises of “transparency” and “accountability”. Now, only six months into his reign, the facade is crumbling and these apparently empty promises are being exposed. In just the first few days of the new premier’s first session in the Alberta Legislature, the Tory team, including Municipal Affairs Minister Diana McQueen, has proudly tabled the first round of amendments to the Municipal Government Act (MGA). This includes lessening the burden of accountability and also removes the requirement for municipal councils to be effectively transparent in their business. In fact, what is being proposed all but eliminates oversight of municipal governments by the provincial body, and to a large extent by the public. Presented by PC MLA Greg Weadick, Bill 20 seems like a huge step backwards for a government trying to promote a new era of openness and accountability. The sketchy legislation, which was quickly given First and Second reading last week, will essentially allow
local municipal governments to hide public business from residents. Currently, the MGA requires that residents be notified of certain municipal matters, and specifies that the information is transmitted to the public via direct mailing, or through newspaper advertising. The responsibility is put on municipal governments to transmit pertinent information they have out to residents before a decision is made. Several sweeping changes are proposed, including giving much authority to municipalities to determine what information they share and the methods they will use to notify the public, which could be a poster hung up in the washroom of the local gas station, or a notice obscurely hidden away on a page of the municipality’s website... or some other option that negates the responsibility of a local government to push information out to the residents - acting transparent and accountable. The biggest drawback to the growing trend of relying on websites to transmit important information is that people don’t know it is there... so how are they going to find something
she must mean, “not free”, because both traditional methods are highly effective in reaching people. What the PCs are really saying through Bill 20 is that they don’t care if the public is informed of initiatives that they have a right to now about; saving money is what matters. The punchline is that it isn’t their money, or the municipality’s money, it is the resident’s money and it is there to be used for the good of the public. Like for informing them of important changes that may impact their lives or business. Allowing local governments to not only decide what business the public has a right to know about, but also choosing the method of transmitting that information, is a huge blow to democracy and to the principles of transparency and accountability that Prentice says are important. Apparently not as important as saving a few bucks... which is the entire premise of Bill 20 - saving some money, not informing the public.
they aren’t looking for??? Are Albertans supposed to check their local municipal website every day and randomly seek out information that may or not be there, pertaining to a subject they have no knowledge of? It’s stupid! And just as ridiculous is the explanation given by Municipal Affairs Minister Diana McQueen to rationalize this idiotic legislation: “Albertans have observed that traditional notification methods may no longer be effective in communicating with the public due to increasing costs and limited accessibility in smaller communities...” Both of the reasons she offers are false. Every community in Alberta that is large enough to have a municipal government, has a post office. And the cost of mailing, compared to the rate of inflation for other services, has not dramatically increased. There is also the option of directly emailing information to residents, which isn’t even considered in the legislation. The cost of newspaper advertising a medium which reaches over 80% of adults in rural Alberta (where most municipalities are) - has also not substantially increased in many years. By “may no longer be effective”,

Online auction for Bruderheim School’s Hot Lunch Program raises more than $5,000 and visit from Edmonton Eskimos Michelle Pinon Editor
An online auction for Bruderheim School’s Hot Lunch program not only produced financial dividends, but profited students in an unexpected and wonderful way. Laura Pryatel, Hot Lunch Program volunteer and member of the Bruderheim Parent Advisory Council (BPAC), contacted many local businesses, sports leagues and large corporations in an attempt to try and raise enough funds for a new stove and operating expenses for the complementary program. One of the organizations she contacted was the Edmonton Eskimos. While the Eskimos were not able to contribute anything financially to the cause, they did offer to send out two of their football players to speak to the students on anti-bullying and nutrition. “On behalf of the school I gladly accepted this offer and arranged to have them out,” stated Pryatel.
On Friday, March 13, Grant Shaw and Ryan King, made their presentation on nutrition, antibullying, personal sharing experiences and a question and answer period. Pryatel said the Q & A were entertaining and well received by students, parents and school staff. “They (Eskimo players) personally handed out mini footballs to each of the children, as well as taking pictures and signing jerseys, shirts, and whatever else the kids wished to have signed. They were true superstars and on behalf of everyone in attendance we can sincerely say their presentation was fun and will be remembered I am sure for years to come.” Pryatel not only organized and collected donations, but she uploaded and maintained the Facebook events page during the 10 day online auction. “With the help from a few other moms: Steph Harrold, Stacey Nice, Nena Short and Sherri Strickland who also collected donation items, together we raised

Literary Rock ‘N Roll Show takes two local schools by storm Submitted by Nora Wisselink “Good stories.” “Awesome rocking music.” “Funny.” Are just some of the words Lamont Elementary School students used to describe children’s author, Sigmund Brouwer’s Rock and Roll Literacy Presentation. On Thursday afternoon, March 19 students and teachers were rock and rolling in the gym and learning about why stories matter and how to “daydream” and then “deliver” their own stories. Sigmund Brouwer is the best-selling author of nearly thirty children and young adult novels, with close to 4 million books in print. In his presentation he used music and story to give fun and practical advice on how to make sure that reading and writing become the foundation to future success and winning our own “Stanley Cups.” To everyone’s surprise he opened his presentation by saying that he doesn’t like to write.

Student Zachary Kuzio poses for a photograph with award winning Canadian author Sigmund Brouwer. “I’ve written lots of books, but I don’t like to write,” but he admitted, “I love to daydream”. He likes to tell people he had the worst grade in his English class, and that it took him ten years to get his first book published.
He impressed upon students that stories need problems and the bigger the problem the better the book.He talked about how music speaks to the emotions of listeners and how a good story does the same. Students were thrilled when he announced that students in Grades 3-6 would receive one of his books. This generous gift was made possible by his sponsor.

Future of St. Michael Rec. Centre: water supply, upgrades Michelle Pinon Editor
Tom and Mae Adamyk are worried about the future of the St. Michael Recreation Centre. So are fellow members of the St. Michael Agricultural Society. In fact, 45 members of the ag. society personally signed a letter of concern regarding proposed options for the hamlet’s future water supply that had been outlined previously during a public meeting that was hosted last fall by Lamont County and held in the local community centre. An article that was published in the Jan. 12th edition of The Lamont Leader sparked further discussion amongst ag. society members, and prompted the non-profit organization to write a letter of concern to Lamont County Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Al Harvey, Reeve Wayne Woldanski and fellow members of county council on Jan. 26th. Several options were outlined by CAO Harvey; some of which included: upgrading the existing water treatment plant, replacing the existing plant including a truck fill, and replacing the existing plant with a regional waterline.
Council requested more information regarding the availability of deep wells, and wanted an estimate as to the cost of upgrading the existing facility during its Jan. 12th meeting. Council made a motion to defer the item. As far as the Adamyks and other ag. society members feel, there is no need for another source of water as the current well, that has been in operation for the last 50 years, has no problems in relation to quality and quantity or rate of flow. They also say there is no need for a truck fill, reservoir, or alternate waterline. Both the society, which owns and operates the recreation centre, as well as residents feel the same way. They are concerned about the affordability of water in the community should council proceed with some of the options that are being proposed. They are also concerned about a possible future water levy, increases existing water rates, and perhaps property taxes, as well as future growth in the community. Some of the proposed options range in price from $400,000 upwards to $4 million, which is very disconcerting to them. The St. Michael Recreation Centre is the “lifeblood” of the community, say the Adamyks, who have invested their hearts and souls into the well being of the centre and the people who benefit from its many community based events and activities. For example, recently the ag. society provided the facility free of charge to organizers of the
From Where I Sit: Before It’s Too Late
By Hazel Anaka When a grandson is five you know time is short. Very soon he’ll be joining the ranks of the fulltime student and life will never be the same again. Our boy, Grady is already busy with hockey practices and games, swimming lessons, two days of kindergarten per week, play dates, and parties. No doubt, summer will bring soccer and tee ball practices. Arranging for a sleepover at the farm takes much maneuvering: texts, phone calls, and emails; calendar checking; and picking up and returning plans. So when Roy knew he’d be attending a conference at Fantasyland Hotel in Edmonton, he suggested we try to arrange a sleepover at the hotel. It was
genius considering that the hotel is part of West Edmonton Mall that is home to a huge indoor amusement park called Galaxyland. So after Greg dropped Grady off we headed to the food court for a quick bite. Then because the fifty dollars (twenty-five from dad, twenty-five from us) was burning a hole in his Spiderman wallet we headed to the toy department at Target. You had to know he’d be leaving with a Lego set. He also bought a shield/slingshot/arrow type thing on sale. Before heading back to the room we checked every cage and tank at the pet store near the hotel. His favourite creature was a salamander because they have one living under their deck. The hamsters make my skin crawl but that’s another story. It is a grandparent’s sworn duty to stretch bedtime to the breaking point so we did. He wasn’t about to leave the Lego kit for morning. By ten he was out like a light. In the morning we amused ourselves with a few games of Go Fish. He was thrilled to kick Nana’s butt in each one. He squirmed and gig-
gled as I made him promise he’d never tell a soul so I’m sure everyone knows by now. We made art using the dollar store version of Spirograph. Using a series of cogged circles and rings and different coloured pens we were able to create beautiful mandalas. We played a rousing game of Balloon. Batting it, chasing it, keeping it airborne burnt off his energy and had both of us laughing. Finally it was time. We had to set some ground rules first. He had to clearly understand that my constitution doesn’t allow me to go on rides. I had to explain, more than once, that I couldn’t do it with my kids and I can’t with him. And besides, would he want me to vomit all over the attendant? Hell, I got nauseated going through the haunted house with him. He went on all the rides that his height and lack of adult companion permitted. He rejected the ‘baby’ rides. He played Whack-a-Mole and redeemed his earned coupons for toy soldiers. He had hours of fun and I got the chance to spend a couple of fun days with him before it’s too late, from where I sit.
Kalyna Country Music Festival which saw well over 1,000 people come in and out the doors for an entire week. The ag. society offers the venue free of charge for local 4-H clubs, parenting and senior groups, training courses and classes, etc. The St. Michael Recreation Centre is one of the busiest facilities in all of Lamont County, and hosts thousands of people on an annual basis, people who attend weddings, funerals, fundraisers, church functions, concerts, etc. “We have one of the largest network’s of volunteeers in the area, which not only brings community together, but provides this area and surrounding areas with a place of belonging and self worth,” stated Mae, in her letter of Jan. 26th. “Our St. Michael’s board of directors believes in families, youth and the well being of family growth. We volunteer our time and resources to run all these programs without being a financial burden to the family,” pointed out Adamyk. Tom, an engineer, who also has extensive experience operating a water treatment plant, says that if environmental regulations stipulate the upgrading or replacement of the existing water treatment plant, then so be it, but residents, businesses and members of the ag. society don’t want or need any of the other options right now. He added that if a waterline was deemed necessary in the future to accommodate population growth, to delve into the possibility at that time. For the time being, the Adamyk’s as well as fellow members of the ag. society, are anxiously awaiting the county’s response.

Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
