First Nations protestors made their voices heard at the Hardisty pipeline terminal on Saturday, January 5. The protest was in support of the ‘Idle No More’ movement.

Hardisty terminal faces pipeline protest Bryan Passifiume
ECA Review Reporter What was touted by organizers as a ‘blockade’ of the Hardisty pipeline terminal ended up as a small roadside picket as the Idle No More movement arrived in east central Alberta on Saturday, January 5. The protest was organized to call attention to what organizers call the ‘exploitation’ of natural resources extracted from First Nations land in Alberta. According to a press release, the aim of the demonstration was to disrupt operations at the terminal by blocking traffic entering and exiting the facility. While the full scale blockade envisioned by the organizers never transpired, demonstrators did attempt to stop the four trucks that entered the terminal during the 30 minute picket. The trucks merely steered around the protestors. While the turnout was small, organizer Dana Falcon of the Red Pheasant First Nation in Saskatchewan was pleased with the outcome. Falcon told The Review that any benefits gained by those who live between
Hardisty and Provost from the oil terminal are short lived. “It’s all short term gain,” he said. “They don’t see a lot from the big terminals.” Falcon said that the financial gains that come out of major energy projects in Alberta don’t outweigh their environmental impact. First Nations activists also are concerned that energy companies don’t fairly share revenues from resources taken from their land. “We’ve been sitting back for too many years letting the government run everything,” he told The Review. “We’re not going to be pushed around anymore.” Falcon claimed that operations within the terminal were scaled back as a result of the protest. Spokespersons at Gibson Energy and Enbridge told The Review that operations at their Hardisty plants were not affected. Messages left with other operators were not returned by press time. While turnout by protestors was indeed light, the event was well attended by police. At least 20 RCMP members and Canadian Pacific Railway police patrolled the area around the terminal, pulling over at least one car containing three protestors from Calgary. According to Sgt. Lee

Czar teenager gets ‘trip of lifetime’ Bryan Passifiume
ECA Review Reporter
A five-person delegation including (L-R) Czar’s Miles Butt and Iain Sander of Lethbridge represented Alberta at the 64th annual Oddfellows Youth Pilgrimage. The event brought youth from around the world to various spots in United States and Canada, including the Prime Minister’s residence at 24 Sussex Drive in Ottawa. ECA Review/Submitted
A Czar youth’s speechwriting skills earned him a top spot at a speechwriting competition in New York City. Seventeen-year-old Myles Butt had a summer that most his age would envy. Butt was chosen by the Alberta Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of Oddfellows to take part in the organization’s United Nations Pilgrimage for Youth, an annual international summit for high school youth to interact and share ideas on world issues. Butt’s journey began early last year, when he was approached by the Czar Oddfellows club to participate in the program due to his invovlement his local 4-H club’s communications and speechwriting program. Butt was asked to write an essay and a speech on a pressing world issue in order to take part. In early July, Butt travelled to Calgary to meet up with the other five Alberta delegates. After a short meeting the group departed to Philadelphia to meet up with the rest of the group. The Alberta delegation was part of 148 students from around the world. After visiting historical sites such as the Liberty Bell and
Gettysberg the group travelled to New York City to see the sights and visit the headquarters of the United Nations. It was there that the delegates took part in a speechwriting competition. Two of the Alberta delegates finished in the top three with Lethbridge’s Iain Sanders winning the top spot and Butt taking third. “This trip was an ultimate life changer,” Butt told The Review. “There were delegates from everywhere. I made many friends, and realized that the world is bigger than just my little district.” Butt added that the trip was a “real eye opener.” Before departing for home, the delegates travelled to Niagara Falls, Ottawa and Washington, D.C. Butt credits his personal development to a life-long commitment to his local 4-H club. “4-H has been a big part of my life,” he said. “It’s allowed me to get out and take part in the activities that I’ve been doing.” Richard Charlton of the Czar Oddfellows lodge said that the trip is a “once in a lifetime” experience for those who attend. Charlton said that the Pilgrimage is important to today’s youth, helping to not only build communications and speechwriting skills, but

to meet and interact with other youth from around the world. Butt says that the trip helped him put his future into perspective. He plans to travel after graduating high school, perhaps working in Australia before studying finance or business at university. His long term goals are homespun, however, as his ambition is to take over the family farm.

Local input for Budget 2013 Kevin Sorenson, M.P., Crowfoot Happy New Year to everyone and may 2013 be a prosperous one for you and your family. The good news so far this year is that Canada’s largest trading partner, the United States, has avoided the so-called ‘fiscal-cliff’ of tax increases and program spending cuts. This is an early hopeful economic sign for all of us in 2013. In our province and our Crowfoot riding, we have strong and informed political views. Canadians know of our political reputation and our historically formidable policy positions. We tend to be more fiscally conservative – we want to pay as we go – and avoid deficit financing when possible. We know what needs to be done and we are always willing to do our share of the heavy lifting. Recently, we are known for the wealth of much needed energy resources in our oilsands. Years ago, Albertans shuddered to think of the amount of hard work it would be if the world ever came calling for these energy reserves. The world is calling on us to sell them our oil and natural gas. While we have traditionally needed only one customer – the United States, today, the offers
from other prospective customers are very attractive. I will add that many economists say that agriculture is and will increasingly be the next great wealth generator for jurisdictions that can serve this strong market. As we know, agriculture is Alberta’s second strongest industry! This sketch of the kind of strong economic leadership that our province is providing Canada in our generation – and for the foreseeable future, is my lead-up to asking you to make your voices heard in advance of the federal government’s upcoming budget. As your Member of Parliament, I have always had the benefit of my constituents sharing with me – in generous and sometimes certain terms – what we want the Government of Canada doing with our hard-earned tax dollars. I am inviting all of my constituents to provide our local input for the upcoming Federal Budget in 2013 to the federal Finance Department website’s online pre-budget consultation at www.fin. gc.ca. Our Conservative government is focused on the economy. Budget 2012 is helping to grow Canada’s economy and create jobs. Nearly 900,000 net new jobs
have been created in Canada since July 2009 (90 per cent full-time and 75 per cent private sector) and Canada has the best economic growth record among all G-7 countries. Canadians across the country are sending in their views on the best ways to strengthen Canada’s economy with pro-growth ideas as part of the next federal budget. In the Conservative National Caucus in Ottawa, as your MP for Crowfoot, I have been very outspoken calling for our return to a balanced budget. I hope my constituents ‘back me up’ and participate in the prebudget consultation. I invite you to provide your responses to the following questions: Are there measures we can take to strengthen our economy in the face of global economic threats? Are there any cost-neutral or low-cost measures to further solidify our economic recovery and position Canada to prosper over the long-term? In what areas should we look for more efficient and effective spending? How can the Government further encourage private sector growth and leadership in the economy?

New Years thefts land two in jail Bryan Passifiume
ECA Review Reporter A wild holiday crime spree had two men ringing in the new year behind bars facing multiple charges after leading RCMP and Lacombe Police on a two-day chase across central Alberta. The two males allegedly began their spree on New Year’s Eve by stealing a pickup truck from a rural residence outside of Ponoka and driving it to an address in Daysland. The next morning the two males stole two snowmobiles from residences in Daysland and Bawlf, abandoning them a short time later and stealing a Toyota Camry from a locked building. The duo allegedly drove the stolen car to Fort Saskatchewan where an RCMP member on patrol attempted to pull the
pair over under suspicion of impaired driving, prompting the culprits to flee. The pair were not pursued. Later that day, Ponoka RCMP received a dangerous driving complaint on what was determined to be the suspect vehicle. The two managed to roll the vehicle near the intersection of Highway 604 and Highway 2A, coming to rest on the Canadian Pacific railway line. A witness to the rollover managed to flag down an Alberta Sheriff who was advised that both males had once again fled the scene. Witnesses to the crash reported that the two males had managed to hitch a ride from a passerby, who drove the pair to a residence in Lacombe. Ponoka RCMP, Lacombe Police and RCMP Police Dog Services arrested the two males without incident. The accused are 21 year old Derek

OPINION
Redistribution gone amuck Brenda Schimke ECA Review Journalist
There are a lot of us who have come to believe that taxes are bad and income re-distribution is very bad. Yet our arguments usually focus on tax-dollar-funded support to the poor and sickly, the unemployed, our First Nations, or those on welfare. But to be fair we should also look at the income redistribution schemes that move money from the poor to the rich. Wildrose Party Leader, Danielle Smith presented a classic example of bottom-up income redistribution last week. She suggested a lottery be used to raise money for new arenas in Edmonton and Calgary. It is an indisputable fact that the poor spend disproportionately more money on gambling than the rich. It is also an indisputable fact that few low income people have the resources to attend a professional hockey game. Let’s consider who actually purchases expensive corporate boxes or season’s tickets. It’s generally the well-heeled or a corporation. The average guy who loves hockey, at best, shares a season’s ticket with his buddies. These arenas are primarily being built for billionaire owners and millionaire players. Yet it can be argued NHL teams do provide both economic and social value so some taxpayer support to build new arenas isn’t out in left field. Professional hockey teams produce good economic spinoff and generate community spirit and togetherness. Professional hockey players and their wives support charities and many make themselves available for good community causes. But why tax the poor to support a rich man’s game? We have become a people that blindly accept that money spent by private individuals (even on gambling) is better than spending money entrusted to our government through taxes. It’s already a sorry state of affairs that Alberta counts on collecting more than $2 billion dollars a year in gambling revenues to support general expenditures. Government policy that moves money from the bottom to the top has a negative effect on the economy. Higher-income individuals consume a smaller proportion of their income so less money circulates and less growth occurs. Poorer people spend all their income. They can’t afford to sit on it, send their money out of the country or invest overseas. They use it and the money crawls back up to the top. Market economics at its best! A much fairer and more effective way to fund the arenas would be to put a surcharge on corporate taxes and individuals earning, say over $150,000 per year, until the arenas are paid off. A radical idea! No, a common sense idea. The people and corporations who are the primary benefactors of the facilities or have the financial ability to become a primary benefactor pay for it. Unless you’re a socialist and think everyone should be treated the same, what could be fairer than that?

Lawful firearm owners always to blame Dear Editor The killing of innocent children and adults always make us angry. Rightly so. Who in his or her right mind could do such a horrible deed. Most agree that a person mentally deranged would kill their own parent and other innocent children.

Whenever a mass murder takes place anywhere in the world, the first thing we hear from the media is that we need to outlaw more firearms. Our laws in Canada differ than those in the USA. In Canada

we have no property rights so the government of the day can by law confiscate anything that we own. Fortunately 99.9 per cent of the gun owners in Canada are law abiding citizens. We are not criminals, not insane, and don’t go around shooting innocent bystanders. We don’t need to apologize to anyone because we own a firearm. But the media tends to lump all lawful and peaceful firearm owners into the same pot. Somehow owning a gun makes one a potential criminal in this country. We need to register the criminals and the insane and not lawful firearm owners. Some

Let’s bring out the goodness every day, not just when something bad happens. Let’s practice random acts of kindness. Little things can mean more than we think they do. I have a friend who is handicapped and she tells me that we have no idea how much something as simple as holding the door open for her means to her. A sincere compliment can turn someone’s bad day into a good day. An hour visit can brighten a lonely person’s life for days. These are all small things but they can make a person feel that someone cares about them and then they can start to care about others. Small acts of kindness can be like grains of sand filling empty spaces of the heart. In 2013 let’s tell the bullies and evil ones that there is no room for them here. Our empty spaces are all filled with kindness. We can make 2013 a better year simply by being kind to each other.

Feel they are entitled to live off of government benefits provided by the taxpayers Here we go again. Last year it was the “Wall Street Protest” and now it is the “Idle No More”. If only these people would take those words to heart. They have far too much idle time on their hands. I think the majority of these people don’t really want to work and think they are entitled to benefits made possible by those of us that do work. I have been watching these protests that are taking place on television and have learned that many of the same Schwenk suspects that were involved in last winter’s protests are the ones demonstrating in this one. These are a bunch of useless lazy lefties that have nothing to do with the aboriginal situation. They won’t work but feel they are entitled to live off of government benefits provided by the taxpayers that do work! But what has really got my goat is the attitude of a segment of the aboriginal community. Many of them fit into the same category as the ones I referred to in the previous paragraph. I think it is pretty rich of Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence to be putting on a so called hunger strike to protest aboriginal poverty when she is personally scamming her own reserve to the tune of more than $270,000. That reserve has about 1800 people, about 300 people less than Castor and Coronation combined. I don’t know for sure but I would guess that the total annual pay received by those mayors and councils would not exceed $50,000. Out of pocket expenses would be extra. Last year the Chiefs and council of Attawapiskat paid themselves over $600,000. Travel expenses were extra. They have a stock portfolio of about nine million dollars. That reserve has received 90 million dollars from the Federal government since 2006. They have received many more millions of dollars from a mine that
is operating right next to the reserve, in fact 100 of their residents have jobs at the mine. Now tell me where the hell is all that money going when the majority of their people are living in abject poverty? Just think what Coronation and Castor could do with that kind of money. These statistics were released by Sun Media and they are available on some government web site. I would like to know why the ‘consensus’ media and the government are not publishing this information. The aboriginal communities receive about 9 billion dollars in direct annual compensation from the Federal government. In addition they receive several more billion dollars in indirect compensation such as welfare payments
and the like. I believe it is fairly obvious that the Chiefs of these communities have been lining their pockets with much of this money, living in luxury, while allowing the people they are supposed to represent to live in squalor. The ordinary people in these communities are intimidated and bullied to the extent that they are afraid to complain, so this graft and extortion does not get exposed. The protesters do not really know what they want. They say they are opposed to Bill C-45. They have taken this bill out of context. It was designed to make it easier for economic development to take place on the reserves. The government has also passed legislation that will require the reserves to publish their financial statements. I think this whole protest thing is a smoke screen by the Chiefs to stop

legislative change. They know if this becomes effective their gravy train will be over. The meeting that is scheduled for January 11 will be a waste of time unless the real issue of accountability is addressed. You can be sure that the Chiefs will fight that tooth and nail. The old treaty system simply is not working in this day and age. The fact is it never did work. It needs to be restructured so those people can take responsibility for themselves. If they had property rights there might be some incentive for them to help themselves.

You are also feeding the soil organisms and making soil with key species like arbuscular mycorrhizae transporting carbon products into the soil in symbiotic exchange for nutrients and water going back to the plants” Winter time is an exciting window for forage planning in taking a wise ‘systems approach’ to the new upcoming 365-day grazing year. Remember, as it takes grass to grow grass, it takes photosynthesis fueled plant processes to make soil.

Take advantage of the winter for getting more information from grazing events put on by Forage and Applied Research Associations, and government or industry extension efforts. Annual AgriProfit$ business analysis done by senior livestock economist Dale Kaliel of Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development, shows that a 365-day grazing mentality of management is a leading edge method being applied by most cow/calf managers to cost effectively create a profitable cow/ calf business. But it is crucial that this be done with a systems approach that is wisely planned, carefully monitored, and dynamically carried out.
