Clive council gave its cat bylaw second reading at its regular meeting on July 18. Coun. Luci Henry said community feedback shows that the majority of Clive residents are in favour of a cat bylaw but added “it wasn’t overwhelming.” Second reading passed in a split 3 - 2 vote.

“No” to street dance

Clive council denied Clive Hotel’s request to block a street Aug. 13 for a second street dance this summer.

Mayor Anita Gillard said she was “struggling” with approving the road blockage. She said it was supposed to be a family dance and not a beer garden. Likewise Coun. Marvin Wieler said he too was struggling with approving a second street dance. Coun. Luci Henri suggested council could approve it if the event doesn’t conflict with any other scheduled events, they

coordinate with the fire department for access to the area and remind the hotel that liquor must be kept inside and the music has to be turned down. The motion to approve the road blockage was defeated in a split 3 2 vote. Mayor Anita Gillard, Councillors Marvin Wieler and Bev Krochak voted against the motion. Councillors Luci Henry and Dan Graden voted in favour.

BIG VALLEY

Developer wants big boot for Big Valley Debra Johnston

ECA Review reporter Council debated over whether a subdivision application would be a good or bad development for Big Valley at their July 28 regular meeting. An individual would like to purchase property north of the train station and roughly across from White Owl Gas Station but east of the railroad tracks. The developer’s proposal is to construct the ‘world’s largest boot’, according to CAO Michelle White. The boot may also house a gift shop. Mayor Lois Miller stated that a development in that area might need approval from Alberta Heritage due to the close proximity to the train station. “I’m a little concerned about the height and [being] that close to the station.” According to White, council and the public will have opportunity to discuss merits of the development once the application has been processed.

Bills need to be paid

Households could have their water shut off if their unpaid bill rolls over to the tax account three months in a row. Given that a household has 90 days to pay the arrears once it has gone over to the tax account, that allows for six months leeway to catch up. Council passed Bylaw 881 to authorize the move.

Talks begin with county

CAO White estimated a new intermunicipal development plan (IDP) with the County of Stettler could be on the table for 2017. One of the new mandatory requirements of the updated Municipal Government Act is for bordering municipalities to have agreements in place on things like development. Big Valley had requested that the County begin talks to put an IDP in place earlier this year.

Root of the problem

Council passed a motion to increase the sewer repair budget to $84,000 from $58,000 to deal with an extreme root problem throughout the Main Street sewer lines. Roots growing through sewer lines and causing backups has been an ongoing problem for Big Valley. The additional repair costs will be covered from MSI funding.

Bylaw passed

Bylaw 821 to amend Bylaw 810 Animal Control received third reading and was passed by council. Council also entered into an agreement with Out of the Cold Companion Animal Rescue from Morrin to provide animal control services for Big Valley.

Village encourages applications

Council set September 14 as the application deadline for community groups to apply for this year’s grant from the Big Valley Community Foundation. The grant of $280 can be used for any activity that is for the betterment of Big Valley.

Association of Paranormal Investigations. The group contacted the village to

Meeting cancelled

Unless an emergency crops up, there will be no August council meeting.

CORONATION COUNCIL

Spike in property crime Dena Clark

ECA Review reporter Coronation and area has seen a spike in property crimes during the second quarter reported Sgt. Darcy McGunigal to council at their last regular meeting on July 18. The primary reason for this spike, McGunigal continued, was in large part due to three individuals from Lloydminister who have since been arrested. The month of April saw 26 break and enter and thefts, primarily around the Castor area. The month of May saw three. A positive ticket campaign has been implemented by local RCMP in the towns of Castor and Coronation. The campaign is designed to

recognize, reward and encourage good behaviour in the local youth. The “tickets”, which have been generously donated by local businesses allow the recipients to cash in the coupons for various items such as treats and food. Cst. Corey Hall will be transferring to the Consort RCMP detachment come the end of August. Cst. Brittany Hasty has joined the Coronation team from Chilliwack, BC. Her spouse, who is also an RCMP officer will work out of the Consort detachment. Both will reside in Consort.

Curfew bylaw

In response to the question about the curfew bylaw that arose out of the sixth grade student visit to council on

April 25, Sgt. McGunigal received a reminder copy of the bylaw. Curfew bylaw 11 states that no child should be in a public place within the limits of Coronation after 11 p.m. and before the hour of 6 a.m. without a guardian present. The bylaw goes on to state that any parent or guardian who permits his/ her child or child into his/her care to contravene this bylaw is guilty of an offence

Backhoe repairs

Public Works Manager Allan Smith, has advised council that the radiator in the backhoe has ruptured and will require replacement. The estimated cost of repairs is $8,000. This was accepted as information by council.

PROTECTING ALBERTANS AGAINST UNFAIR POWER BILLS The Government of Alberta is going to court to protect Albertans from being forced to pay for the business losses of five power companies. The companies are trying to offload their losses onto Albertans because of a deal made between the former government and Enron, a discredited and now-bankrupt U.S. electricity operator. Albertans shouldn’t have to pay for the losses of electricity companies. 16075DE0 This ‘Enron clause’ was never raised during months of public hearings that were supposed to ensure Albertans got a fair deal as their electricity system was deregulated. And, there is evidence the Enron clause was enacted unlawfully by the previous government and then deliberately withheld from the public. The Government is asking the court to overturn the Enron clause and protect Albertans against an estimated $2 billion in business losses over the next four years. If successful, any additional electricity fees charged to the public due to the Enron clause will be refunded back to Albertans. Albertans shouldn’t be on the hook for a backroom deal that allows companies to collect the profits when power prices are high and hand consumers the losses when prices are low. That’s why the Government of Alberta is taking legal action – to protect Albertans. Learn more at powerpurchase.alberta.ca

Consultant selected for impact study The Hanna Climate Change Strategy Taskforce is pleased to announce Urban Systems Ltd. has been selected to conduct the impact study and the asset mapping and opportunities study for the region. The Taskforce received several quality submissions in response to the request for proposals for consulting services for both studies and were pleased by the level of expertise presented to them.

The Taskforce is confident that the expertise of the Urban Systems team will lead to high-quality outcomes for both studies. The purpose of the impact study is to begin the long-term planning process, so impacts from the Alberta Climate Leadership Plan on Hanna and area can be identified early, in order for mitigation processes to be put in place. The purpose of the asset mapping and opportunities study is to gather

information on all regional assets, including human capital and identify economic opportunities for the area that are not already being pursued. Work on the impact study and the asset mapping and opportunities study will begin immediately with final reporting to take place by Oct. 31, 2016. The Urban Systems team will be in contact with various members of the community in order to gather input for both studies.

Stettler County issues weed notices to Minister of Transportation

Landowners are desperate to keep noxious weeds along highways from spreading onto farmland. Agricultural Services for the County of Stettler has issued weed notices to the Minister of Transportation for control of noxious weeds alongside all two digit and three digit highways within the county’s borders, following a motion made by council to do so on July 13, 2016. “We have been controlling weeds on county controlled roadsides since spring,” said Director of Agricultural Services Quinton Beaumont. “But we have been noticing problems developing along the highways, especially with the great growing season we are having here. Agricultural Services cannot control foliage along numbered highways which fall under the jurisdiction of the

Alberta Government,” he added. However at the July 13 council meeting, many council members echoed concerns from landowners in their divisions. “We need to control noxious weeds along these highways. We cannot expect our landowners to control noxious weeds on their properties and then not expect the same diligence from our provincial government,” said Reeve Nixon. Weeds classified as noxious in the County of Stettler include: Canadian Thistle, Absinthe Wormwood, Perennial Sow Thistle, White Cockle, Oxeye Daisy, Scentless Chamomile and Yellow Toadflax. Alberta Transportation, through their contract sprayer, now has two weeks to control noxious weeds along highways in the County of Stettler.

Minister plans to meet with municipalities Debra Johnston ECA Review reporter The Town of Stettler received an email from Minister of Municipal Affairs Danielle Larivee informing municipalities that she will be at the Alberta Urban Municipalities Association Convention in October and requested that anyone wishing to meet with her forward a request to the minister. According to Assistant CAO Steve Gerlitz, council motioned at the July 19 meeting to send in a request for a meeting time.

Updated bylaw

Cemetery Bylaw 2085-16 got an update after remaining unchanged

for several years. Changes include updated definitions of burial permits, markers and monuments, decorations and proper receptacles. The associated costs of plots are also under review. The bylaw received first reading.

Tax recovery

Only two properties have landed on the tax recovery public auction list. Council set the auction date for mid October. One house valued at $143,980 and one manufactured home valued at $16,920 will go to auction to recover outstanding taxes unless the taxes are paid prior to the sale date.

RCMP

Theft of industrial generator Two male suspects, driving a dark coloured F250 or F350 entered the compound of the Stettler Equipment Sales and Rental by breaking the lock off of the gate on July 9 between 11:08 pm and 11:54 pm. The suspects looked around the compound before stealing a trailer hitch from a parked truck, which they then attached to their truck and proceeded to steal a large generator. The generator is a dual axle trailer, Doosan G70, white and black in colour, with decals from “Drumheller Equipment Sales” on it. Any information provided that leads to an arrest, recovery of stolen property and/or seizure of illicit drugs, may be eligible for a cash reward.

Theft of fundraising money

Last fall, Drumheller youth

Brandon Hall was diagnosed with cancer and has been undergoing treatments since. In April, 2016, several local citizens and businesses organized fund raisers with proceeds going back to the Hall family to assist with their expenses incurred from these treatments. These fund raisers including decal sales, a Poker Run, and a Silent Auction. On June 14, 2016, Drumheller RCMP received a complaint that a substantial amount of the Silent Auction cash proceeds were missing and never forwarded to the Hall family. After completing their investigation, RCMP have laid one charge of Theft Under $5000 against 33 year old Ashley Fredrickson of Drumheller. She has been released on a Promise to Appear in Drumheller Provincial Court on August 26, 2016.

Alberta Transportation has also informed the county due to budget constraints they will mow ditches along our highways only once this season. They have scheduled mowing alongside highways within our borders for mid to late August, weather pending. The county has been receiving calls over the past few weeks about tall grass and weeds alongside Alberta highways which are now hindering visibility and causing safety concerns as wildlife is undetectable and visibility at intersections is becoming a concern for motorists. Alberta Transportation is encouraging farmers to take out hay permits for haying the ditches. For more information on getting a hay permit please visit: http://www. transportation.alberta.ca/content/ doctype329/Production/HayPermits. pdf.

In-depth community sessions will also be held in September to engage the community in the conversation, so every citizen has the opportunity to share their feedback on impacts and future opportunities for the region. The community’s cooperation in working with the Urban Systems team would be greatly appreciated by the Climate Change Strategy Taskforce. The Hanna Climate Change Strategy Taskforce includes representation from Town of Hanna, Special Areas Board and Cactus Corridor Economic Development Corporation. submitted

You can’t force ingenuity government, producers are watching their input costs go up and their competitiveness go down. The implementation of technology is something that can only be successful if it has been adapted because it carries some form of benefit for its implementer. The urgency that the NDP government is trying to implement wholesale changes to our energy needs, takes away any possible beneficial ingenuity, by telling Albertans “how to do things” rather than telling them what it is you want them to do. Ingenuity and innovation take time; they simply can not be rushed, even with carbon tax legislation.

LEGISLATURE

by Rick Strankman MLA, Drumheller Stettler The ingenuity of Albertans has always been one of the most valuable assets in the building of the province. The annual Starland County Summer Farm Tour took place recently and once again it featured more Alberta innovations and ingenuity that has become an economic trademark of Alberta. This year’s Strankman tour included solutions both diverse and straightforward, such as a solar livestock watering system that simplifies ensuring adequate water and lower input costs for producers. United States General, George S. Patton was quoted as saying “Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.” Patton’s quote describes the very thing that has allowed the province of Alberta to thrive in an environment that can be a lot less than ideal or hospitable. The ingenuity and innovation in Alberta’s agriculture industry has resulted in the province being one of the highest agricultural per capita yield jurisdictions in the world. The presentation of ideas through tours such as Starland’s solar initiatives has allowed farmers to stabilize their electricity costs. With ingenuity that makes sense, they have allowed a much more natural transition into the renewable energy field, offering cost-effective alternatives. As we see power prices escalating with no end in sight, producers are searching for stability when it comes to their input costs. Uncertainty has created unstable markets in energy-consuming businesses that can and has crippled businesses, by making them less competitive throughout the province of Ontario. While the Albertan NDP government follows the path of Ontario’s

Schimke If it wasn’t the “most powerful nation in the world”, or our largest trading partner, or a country we shared more than 4,000 miles of a poorly defended border, the whole presidential election campaign and Donald Trump could be just seen as highly entertaining political comedy. But when you consider that it was legal for protestors in Cleveland at the Republican convention to carry loaded shotguns, long guns, handguns and assault rifles yet coolers, whole fruit, tennis balls, non-plastic beverage containers, pad locks and light bulbs, were banned is there any wonder that mass murders are so easy to commit. How ironic, Americans now need the National Fruit Association (NFA) to fight for the right to carry open or concealed fruit. Contrary to the Trump truism that crime skyrocketed during Barak Obama’s presidency, the 2014 census data showed murder, violent crime rates, assaults and rape rates have all reduced significantly in the last quarter century, especially among African-American youth. The one exception in the 2014 data was the stark increase in mass-casualty shootings. Today we have the disturbing trend of white police shooting blacks and now blacks shooting white police. Then there’s the Trump truism that he’s a great business tycoon and a great deal maker who will single-handedly make America great again. When “The Apprentice” was announced over 10 years ago one of my cousins said, “You’ll probably really like that reality show because it’s all about business.” My response was “I won’t turn it on”. I knew much of Trump’s past business dealings. By the time he was a regular staple on TV, Trump had already bankrupted many of his businesses, six in total, stiffing hundreds or thousands of suppliers, contractors, small business owners and employees. He over extended himself, always proudly admitting that the key to suc-

cess was risking other people’s money. In my mind, he was just another Peter Pocklington who stiffed many individuals and businesses in Edmonton as well as the taxpayers of Alberta with his “get-me-rich” schemes. I also knew the Trump history of using illegal Polish workers to demolish the building where the now famous Trump Tower stands in Manhattan. How ironic that he has the “hate on” for immigrants, legal and illegal, today.

“

He’s a political

agitator who appeals to the prejudice and passions of the mob through crude oratory appeals.

“

The contractor he hired didn’t pay those workers what they were promised—the advantages of using illegals because they have no legal rights—the work gets done and Trump’s wealth grows. Trump argued then and continued to argue in court that it was his underlings and contractors who were at fault which sounds very much like the politicians we have come to despise! Another little known fact is that he had those same illegal workers pull down the façade of the existing building in the middle of the night and smash it to pieces. His development permit required that the historical façade was to be saved and re-used, but to Trump that would cost him money. What about Trump’s truism that he’s a family man. A family man in my books doesn’t go through two divorces and sire children from three different women, two of which were young enough to be his

daughters. That together with his ownership of ‘Miss America’ clearly highlights his true opinion of women … sex objects or show pieces. Another Trump truism, that he hates Hillary Clinton and she ought to be jailed is a joke. Would it surprise you that Bill and Hillary Clinton were invited guests to Trump’s third wedding! It shouldn’t. Trump has always hung out with important people. I would argue the only reason he’s supposedly speaking for the little guy at this moment is because he sees it as his potential ticket to becoming America’s really big guy—the President. When asked about his beliefs in God, Trump responded, “I’m a religious person because the evangelicals are supporting me.” Does that also mean he’s a white supremist because the Ku Klux Klan is supporting him? The entire Republican convention was about fear, hate and god-like worship of Donald Trump. The media uses two words to describe Trump – a narcissist and a demagogue. On the Mayo Clinic website, a narcissist is described as a

person with a mental disorder in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others. Behind this mask of ultra-confidence lies a fragile self-esteem that’s vulnerable to the slightest criticism. The dictionary definition of demagogue is one who preaches doctrines he knows to be untrue. He’s a political agitator who appeals to the prejudice and passions of the mob through crude oratory appeals. Canadians and the world need to be afraid of a potential Donald Trump presidency. Russia already has in place their narcissist and demagogue, Vladimir Putin, who has made Europe and the Middle East much more unstable because of his need to be important and hero worshipped. Canada would not be in a safe position if Trump is elected, smack in the middle of two extreme narcissists and demagogues. Let’s hope and pray that the better nature of Americans will prevail when they go to the polls in November, for the sake of themselves, Canada and the whole world.

Rotting rail cars in Alliance update Dear Editor: Oh wait – there is no update! Nothing has changed. Same ugly picture – different season. What has been done to date: 1) Letters to the editors February and March 2016 and picture of decrepit rail cars bordering Alliance (also met with Village Council to air concerns in February) 2) April 2016 village council met with Battle River Rail (BRR) members, Ken Eshpeter and Matt Enright, to address issues of rail cars stored in Alliance however Dale and I were not invited to attend!

Published by Coronation Review Limited

They assured council the revenue was valuable and the cars were safe! (We always supported the revenue generated – but out of town. We knew they were safe that was never our concern) They mentioned they have cars stored in most of the other communities. Not in front of any houses that we could see. They hadn’t been contacted directly by complainants (I guess letters to the editor of their local paper carry no authority). Council seems delighted (in their newsletter) to say they have no authority over the cars on the line

within their corporate limits. At one time one of the councillors even told us that they live on the other end of town so they don’t bother them – wow and they represent the Alliance citizens!? Council’s resulting question: “Would you as a business owner or farmer be receptive to a municipality giving them orders as to how to run their business?” My answer; “You damned right I would if my business was negatively impacting the citizens within the community.” 3) April 2016 we sent out a notification to the residents of Alliance and

community as council seemed to think we were the only ones wanting the cars out of the village. We had over 20 written responses, only one of which stated we got what we deserved for living close to a railroad, and many verbal responses agreeing with our request. We are certainly not being envied by anyone wishing they had our view! 4) May 2016 I wrote a letter to each of the board members of the BRR outlining our disgust of their discourtesy of storing such hideous rail cars in our village.

Kneehill County invests in Horseshoe Canyon tourism

At the May 10 regular meeting, council moved forward on purchasing the privately owned area icon and tourism draw, Horseshoe Canyon. The land is located at SW 27-28-21W4M in the southeast part of Kneehill County. The land title was transferred at the beginning of July, making the purchase official. Council discussed the Horseshoe Canyon action plan at the July 26 regular council meeting. Immediate plans consist of making the observation area safer for visitors, as drainage has caused washouts in many areas. The Kneehill County Agriculture and Parks Department continues to work on developing a long term plan to

present to Council, including recreation areas, hiking trails and other developments that will support long term economic goals of our area. Reeve Bob Long is excited to have the area under their wing, “Horseshoe Canyon is a gem in our prairie profile, a part of the Canadian Badlands. It’s an important attraction to maintain for our many visitors and residents to enjoy.” Horseshoe Canyon parking area was originally under Kneehill County control through a long-term lease until the management of the property was turned over to Alberta Parks and Recreation in 1986. When the Province made plans to privatize or close the parking lot area in 1998, Kneehill

To support the educational aspect of its activities, the organization

County entered a partnership with the Town of Drumheller to further promote tourism in the region. On Sept. 6, 2002, the Horseshoe Canyon conservation area was opened by the Nature Conservancy of Canada. Kneehill County re-assumed ownership of the parking lot of the popular tourism stop in 2008, and pavement and bathrooms were added to upgrade the area. With the full quarter now under ownership and operation of Kneehill County, they will be able to develop the recreation area while working with neighbours, the Alberta Nature Conservatory to the west of the parking area.

supposed to care! My question is if they do it for others why not Alliance. How rude! 6) June 2016 I replied to Ken Eshpeter stating I was totally aware of all their arguments and their logistics of the whys and wherefores – aware and totally frustrated with the lack of courtesy - so in desperation I asked if they would at least consider a three rail car break in front of our home so that we can see something other than scrap metal on wheels. Apparently that too was an unreasonable request as nothing has been done.

established the Communities in Bloom Foundation, a registered charity dedicated to funding, developing, and disseminating education and awareness on the value, improvement, importance and sustainable development of green spaces and natural environment in Canada. Within the context of climate change and environmental concerns, all those involved in the Communities in Bloom program can be proud of their efforts which provide real and meaningful environmental solutions and benefit all of society.

I am grateful for the many who have asked Dale and me if the situation has been resolved – many from neighbouring communities, and several councillors from neighbouring communities who say they would certainly work hard to get such a mess out of their town sites and totally agree with our mission. And well you may ask, “Why doesn’t she just get over it and leave it alone?” My answer is because it would take such little effort to right the wrong. Sylvia Wold, Alliance, Ab .

Cont’d from Pg 6 5) June 2016 I received a response from Ken Eshpeter, Chairman of BRR. Some of his key points being: A lot about main lines and storage tracks which are of absolutely no concern of mine. (Not convenient for them – sure as hell not convenient for me. They manage the inconvenience all up and down the line in other areas!) Opportunity to store cars and get good revenue (we have already stated on many occasions we are pleased with the grain terminal in our community and the efforts of the BRR to keep the track in great condition – we have always only asked to get the rotting rail cars the hell out of our town!)

EAST CENTRAL OUTDOORS

Fast growing popularity of pontoon boats by Bob Chapman Probably one of the fastest growing popularity in boats over the past few years is for pontoon boats. When pontoon boats first entered the market they were quite small, plain and were powered by small motors in the 20-30 hp range. The lower power I believe deterred many buyers from considering them for their families, or water sports, especially if you did most of your boating on big water. I don’t remember exactly when Pontoons began coming out with larger motors but believe it was about ten years ago. The increased power and the addition of more elegant seats, couches and roomy floor plans have increased their popularity by as much as 10 times according to some dealers. In 2011 we purchased a pontoon boat, with the ability to fish with it being a big consideration. We also had grand kids and we wanted something we could take my mother and father out on as well. Their mobility was quite limited and the dock level entrance and lots of roomy seating made the pontoon a good choice. We choose a 20’ fishing model with a 60HP motor. The fishing model comes with a combination of lounger, pedestal seats, livewell, rod holders, cup holders and a popup change/bathroom (porta potty).

Most pontoons come with a bimini top and although they don’t protect you a lot from the rain, they work great for supplying some much needed shade on those hot days. We liked to take a small table and barbecue with us and hot lunches and fish fries on the boat are very popular. The majority of our use is going to be for fishing and a bit of cruising, so this model works well for us. I installed a 70lb. bow mount (with remote) trolling motor on the front and a sonar at the helm. This boat handled very well, and after adding a few more rod holders around the boat, and getting a long handle net, it was a great “fishing machine”. If you are thinking on buying a pontoon but can’t seem to decide on the length or style, consider some advice I was given many years ago. When considering the style of boat you are going to buy, select the style that you are going to be using it for 80 per cent of the time. The only thing that I would add is that if you are going to be fishing with it even half of the time, consider a model with pedestal seats. On the cruising models, almost if not all the seats face to the middle of the boat which is great for visiting, but very awkward for fishing. I have been asked many times, “What is a pontoon like to load?”.

My experience has been that they do catch a bit more wind than a standard boat, but in heavy crosswinds I used the same technique as my 18’ fishing boat. Line up a bit on the windward side of the trailer and as the boat drifts and lines up with the bunks, power on. Most pontoons have large “guide ons” which help a lot. As with standard boats if you back your trailer into the water far enough that the bunks are completely submerged (soaking the

bunks) and then pull out a bit leaving about 2/3 of your bunks still in the water loading is much easier. Pontoon boats today come with motors up to 300hp and the “furniture” and other fixtures on them are not only very elegant, but there has been some great improvements in storage, lighting and lounging options. The larger motors now have also made them popular with families who do a lot of water sports.

There are many pontoon boat manufactures now, and some of the more popular fishing boat companies are now offering pontoons in their line up as well. The options for pontoons have never been better and are increasing every year. With all the models available today there is a style for everyone, and I must say I really enjoyed my time and made some great memories on the pontoon. Have a great summer!

Storing hay for best results - start with feed test Agri-News While hay quality varies across the province, how to store that hay for the best results doesn’t. “We’ve got a mixed bag this year,” says Barry Yaremcio, beef and forage specialist, Alberta Agriculture and Forestry. “Some people cut their hay early, got caught with the rains and had it discolour before it even got into the bales. Other are cutting now and may be looking at plants that are more mature than optimum. In both cases, quality may be down a bit.” Yaremcio says that, no matter what the case, feed test to know what you’re starting with, and work from there. “If the hay was baled tough, and you notice the bales are slumping, have a slight tobacco smell, or a moisture probe reads over 40 degrees Celsius, some of the protein will be tied up with

the fibre and unavailable to the animal. In that case, a secondary analysis of acid detergent insoluble nitrogen (ADIN) needs to be done as well.” Yaremcio says the bales should be left in the field for seven to ten days to cool off and for moisture to equalize throughout the bale before being put in the shed or feed yard. “When the hay does get stacked in the shed, you’ll still need some air movement through the shed to keep the bales cool.” When it comes to stacking bales in the field, there are a number of different methods for stacking. One method is the pyramid style, with three bales on the bottom, two in the middle and one on the top. “That’s actually the poorest way to do it,” says Yaremcio. “If it rains after the stacks are made, or if snow melts during the

Preventing orphan well sites Agri-News Alberta’s energy industry has a regulated system to help prevent orphan well sites. The Liability Management Rating (LMR) was first established in 2013 to help prevent Albertans from bearing the costs for abandonment and reclamation. “What the LMR does is measure a company’s assets against its liabilities,” says Jeana Les, rural engagement and communications specialist with the Farmers’ Advocate Office (FAO). “Companies with a rating below 1.0 must post a security deposit with the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER). If a company becomes insolvent, these funds are used by the Orphan Well Association (OWA) for well site

abandonment and reclamation.” The LMR also has implications for companies hoping to sell or buy assets. “Every time a company asks to transfer a licence, the AER looks at how transfer will affect the rating for both the buyer and the seller. If the sale would cause either company’s rating to dip below 2.0, the requesting company must undertake abandonment and reclamation work, or post a security deposit with the AER,” explains Les. Looking for more information? The FAO has listed Frequently Asked Questions on its website at www.farmersadvocate.gov.ab.ca. For more information, call the FAO through the Ag Info Centre at 310-FARM (3276) or email farmers.advocate@gov.ab.ca.

OBITUARIES

Hockey was his passion Lloyd Wayne “Butch” Baynham of Chauvin, Ab. passed away at the Royal Alex Hospital Edmonton on June 24. Butch was born in Chauvin Nov. 16, 1940 to parents, Lloyd and Clarice Baynham. He was the sixth child of eight and grew up on a farm four miles southeast of Chauvin. Butch went to school at Butze and then finished in Chauvin. He started working on the railroad and the farm and from there moved to the rigs which is where he met the love of his life, Viola Genevieve Dewald of Altario, Ab. Butch and Viola were married in January 1965 in Chauvin and began their family with Alyson in October 1965. Their only son, Monty came in January 1968 and then along came the baby, Pamela in July 1975. Butch’s favourite hobbies were visiting family and friends (we all know he had lots of both), gardening with Viola (their greenhouse was filled with prize flowers and vegetables for fairs and bouquets for many special functions) and hunting with family and friends from Taber. He was so proud of what he caught every year. Almost every night they listened to the radio for the horse races and took in many races all over. His love for watching sports volleyball, football, baseball, fastball and slow pitch and even played with his grandchildren at 63 years old. Hockey was his passion. He played and coached many years and enjoyed watching his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren play, especially when he saw his great-grandson get his first goal last winter. He was so proud of all of them

You no longer are spiritually bound to watch a 7-9 team’s annual march to mediocrity.” • Hit king Pete Rose, to the Rochester (N.Y.)

Rio games most expensive ever

SPORT Shorts

by Bruce Penton What we think we know for sure about the Summer Olympics at Rio de Janeiro, currently under way and filling our newspapers, television sets, computer screens, Twitter feeds and Facebook posts until Aug. 21. — This will reportedly be the most expensive Olympics ever, with figures rumoured to be as high as $11 billion in a country whose poverty level is said to be above normal for a middle-income country, where crime is said to be out of control, and whose water quality is, to be generous, questionable. — The television network given the job of bringing the pictures and stories to North America, NBC, will not likely show us any of the unsightly underbelly of Brazil.

• RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “TSN’s CFL analyst Matt Dunnigan said something is missing from the Blue Bombers offence. Quick! Call LaPolice.”

— Dozens of the world’s best athletes made a public display about staying home from Rio because of a threat of coming down with the Zika virus, a mosquitospread scourge that will be at its lowest threat in August, according to health experts. — American swimmer Michael Phelps probably won’t be the star of the Games this year, because he’s, Penton like, 74 years old or something like that, but he’ll get a disproportionate amount of air time because he’s won more gold medals, 18, than anyone in the history of the Games. — If you watch the Games at all, you’ll likely see Usain Bolt of Jamaica. Probably in a blur. — CBC’s coverage will

focus mainly on Canadian athletes, and network estimates are that Canada will win between 15 and 20 medals, with three or four of them of the gold variety. Divers are reportedly Canada’s best hopes, sprinter Andre De Grasse is a world-class athlete and with the world’s four best male golfers staying home for Zika reasons, Canada’s duo of Graham DeLaet and David Hearn could medal, as could the women golfers, world No. 2 Brooke Henderson and Alena Sharp. — Every time a Russian athlete wins a medal, eyebrows will be raised. Here’s a prediction: At least one Russian medal winner will have that silverware taken

away within 12 months of the Games’ closing. — Canadian athletes will have Mom and Dad in Rio to watch, perhaps even Grandma and Grandpa, because the Olympics are a once-in-a-lifetime deal for most athletes. But did you know Mom and Dad’s rental accommodation for a week in Rio might be as high as $26,000? (An Alberta athlete’s folks confirmed that figure.) — Pele will show up in some form during the opening ceremonies, because he is Brazil’s most famous athlete. — Despite all the trepidation and worry, the Games will be deemed a success. Brazil might still be paying for them in 2050, but by then, the world won’t care. In fact the world will quit caring on Aug. 21, shortly after the closing ceremonies.
