CORONATION

Carbon Levy implications

Deputy Mayor Jackie Brigley presented a Canadian Volunteer Fire & Safety Association long-service medal at their town council meeting on Mon. Feb. 27 to Gordon Twa of Coronation who has served on the Coronation Volunteer Fire Department for over 35 years. ECA Review/J.Webster

Volunteer firefighter, Gordon Twa was presented with a long-service medal and accolades from Deputy Mayor Jackie Brigley, County of Paintearth Reeve, George Glazier and Fire Chief, Keith Rindal at the regular meeting of Coronation Town council on Mon. Feb. 27. Twa has been involved over 35 years with the Coronation Volunteer Fire Department and was a training officer for many of those years. He was actively involved in obtaining the first fire department along Highway 12 to

have a hydraulic rescue tool known as ‘Jaws of Life’, a pump for the back of the fire truck to fight prairie fires, and the first rescue unit, a converted ice cream truck. The medal from the Canadian Volunteer Fire & Safety Association is to honour volunteer firefighters or firefighters that provide service to their communities without payment of regular wages or as non-career firefighters. The individual must have completed at least 30 years of service in the performance of their duties involving potential risks.

The town of Coronation participated in a survey conducted in 2016 by the Alberta Urban Muncipalities Association (AUMA) regarding the expected impact of the new carbon levy at their regular meeting Mon. March 6. A summary of the results showed that fuel usage in 2015 was: gasoline $12,678, diesel $17,854; and propane $384 for a total of $30,916 with the estimated Operating Expenses Budget impacts of the carbon levy for 2017 up an additional $1,536.31, a 0.13 per cent tax increase and $2,304.73 in 2018, a tax levy per cent increase of 0.19 per cent on the Operating Budget. Overall survey results showed the estimated average cost of the carbon levy in 2017 at $43,737 and in 2018 at $65,625.

Cont’d from Pg 1 The policy establishes who the official spokesperson is, what should be said and what shouldn’t be said, stated Kulyk, so the press would know who they should speak to if they want more information.

Hiring policy

Recruitment, Selection and Hiring Policy was passed unanimously to provide council and staff direction for the recruitment and hiring of employees for the town. The policy sets out who does the hiring, when the hiring needs to go up a level due to conflict of interest as well as guidelines for advertising, short-listing, interviewing, candidate selection and offers of employment. The policy provides structure and direction and who does the hiring. “If there is a problem, then there is accountability,” said CAO Kulyk. For example, the policy states that senior managers under the direction of the CAO are responsible for hiring the part time and temporary staff, however, if there is a conflict of interest, then the hiring moves up a level to the CAO. “I think that is totally fair,” said Coun. Liz Adams. The council is only responsible for hiring the CAO.

Recreation facility rental

Inequities were discussed in the rental costs of the bowling alley, onehour rentals of $50 versus renting the bowling alley for $180. Council approved the amended rental policy to a two hour minimun rental of the bowling alley. Regarding the Curling Rink rentals during the summer season when the town takes over, it was decided that rental of the entire facility should be $300, down from $350; the downstairs and ice area only $200; and the upstairs $150. The Lions Rec Centre hall rentals has two rental options, one with cleaning included and one where the

Broadband preparedness

Council reviewed the presentation from the Regional Broadband Preparedness meeting Feb. 15 in Coronation. The intent is to provide a common understanding of broadband at both the regional and municipal level, identify where each community is at relating to broadband, provide an understading of the potential options available and to see which approach might best meet Coronation’s needs. A strategy will be developed with which the municipalites or the region can move foreward as a whole. Four options presented including maintaining status quo, incremential implemention by looking at fibre network requirements in planning/development processes, and develop a Broadband Service Strategic Plan; negotiate for broadband services from current provideers (Shaw, Telus, Axia, CCI, etc.) or develop a utility communiyt-owned fibre network either individually or regionally.

“Unfortunately because Coronation is too small to run a sustainable operation, the assumed cost structure would run an ongoing deficit. To be sustainable, Coronation would have to reduce costs of putting in the fibre optics, obtain grant funding or utilize a tax levy and/or reduce operational costs by partnering with other communicities or outsourcing operations. Telus is provided fibre to the curb in Drumheller, Stettler and Wainwright said CAO Kulyk, adding it is estmiated at $2,000 per household or $5,000 if they go underground.

Cuba trip ‘a truly amazing experience’ Linda Stillinger,

ECA Review Reporter A delegation representing Stettler’s Wm. E. Hay Senior Girls Basketball team presented an update on the trip they took to Cuba in Dec. 2016. Students Tori Brower, Sadie Diegel and Reesa Garez along with their teacher and coach, Kim Poapst were on hand to show off their pictures and

video and speak about their experiences. According to coach Poapst, both the hospitality and the basketball in Cuba were awesome. This trip involved the “least amount of organizing” because everything they needed was taken care of. The schedule was rearranged to play basketball in the mornings and allow for a bit of sightseeing in the afternoons.

The level of basketball was superior and the girls learned a lot from the Cuban players; pushing each other to do better, communicating on the court with words and hand language and developing teamwork skills. Ressa Gareez said she learned “many new things” and was “excited to bring it back to Canada.” All the girls agreed that it was a truly amazing experience.

Before leaving, the Stettler team presented their Cuban hosts with gifts including T-shirts and basketballs featuring the “Camp Teckla - Celebrating 20 Years” logo.

CAO Jenkins, during council’s regular meeting March 2, read an email correspondence from a Municipal Affairs representative stating that Municipal Affairs has not appointed an investigator to investigate a petition by

a group of Alix residents. The email read: “Once the minister appoints an inspector, written notification will be provided to both the village and the petition representative. Subsequently, the inspectors will make residents aware of how they can be contacted to schedule interviews.” The email from Municipal Affairs to the Village of Alix, dated Feb. 27, also stated that: “Municipal Affairs has no jurisdiction over a resident’s Facebook page or content.

New elementary report card

Cont’d from Pg 3 According to the information presented, brains are built in stages and early positive or negative experiences can change the structure and function of our brains. Coppock emphasized the importance of literacy enriched programs to help furnish children with the foundational skills needed for success later in school. Currently every Clearview school offering kindergarten has an early learning Start Right program with access to Alberta Health Services speech, language and occupational therapy resources. Across the division there are 162 children enrolled in Clearview kindergarten programs and 188 children enrolled in Clearview Start Right programs. Given that physical space is maxed out in Stettler and Coronation, they have begun to explore how to handle the increased load as programs become more popular. Coppock hopes to continue to positively impact the lives of preschool children by ensuring that “developmentally appropriate strategies and instructions are provided for all children in these programs”.

MacDonald explained the new Communication Student Learning (CSL) Elementary Report Card which was implemented by Clearview this past fall. This new outcomes-based report card reveals information about student learning attributes separately from academic achievement. CSL allows teachers to offer personalized comments and post artifacts of students’ work which will remain accessible throughout a student’s career, providing a unique collection of educational accomplishments. Parents will be able to clearly see what their children need to know at each grade level and view their progress over time, while administrators will be able to track student progress across the division and pinpoint where additional supports may be needed. It is anticipated that this new reporting system will improve communication from classroom to home concerning student progress and achievement. Initial staff response indicates that CLS is easy to use, cutting down on the time needed to complete and review report cards. There will be continued opportunities for feedback from both teachers and parents as the CLS report card moves towards full functionality.

Notice is hereby given in accordance with the provisions of Section 311 of the Municipal Government Act, Statutes of Alberta, 2000, Chapter M-26. The County of Paintearth No. 18 has mailed Assessment Notices to all persons appearing on the Assessment Roll as of February 28, 2017.

ON THE OTHER HAND

Wow! Property Rights restored? by Brenda Schimke When and how did we, the ordinary working-class citizen, adopt the belief system that government regulations are bad for us? We didn’t believe it in the 1970s when middle class prosperity was growing. Yet by the dawn of the 21st century most people identifying themselves as conservatives have become believers of this corporatesponsored myth.

Fair and appropriate regulations ensure a functioning market economy which supports free enterprise as it protects people, living things, property rights and the environment from corporate abuses.

We’ve been sold a false bill of goods. Corporations and the powerful lobby groups representing the richest of the rich had the money and resources to bombard us with this myth until we embraced it as our value. I have attended Alberta Surface Rights Association meetings where much time is spent discussing abandoned toxic well sites, pushy land agents, polluted drinking and surface water, corporation’s expropriation rights, the industry-bias Alberta Surface Rights Board, inadequate compensation, private property rights, and water wells being damaged by fracking. Yet those attending these meetings are often the same ones who support

right-wing political parties that demonize government regulations. Karen Johnson, Acting Property Rights Advocate, said in her annual report that the current land use legislation is geared towards facilitating oil and gas development. She would be the first Advocate not to lose her appointment by making such a public statement. She goes on to suggest that Alberta property rights framework (i.e. regulations) needs to be modernized. “Often a landowner has no choice but to tolerate the activities of an operator even when rent has not been paid for years”, wrote Johnson in her annual report. “A landowner should be able to impose meaningful penalties such as eviction for noncompliant operators.” Wow, property rights restored! Lax regulations on any corporatedominated industry are simply another tax-funded corporate handout. When all is said and done, private citizens always turn to the government to bail them out when corporations stop paying the bills and leave environmental messes on private property. Freedom and democracy requires the government to play the vital role of providing a level playing field. Fair and appropriate regulations ensure a functioning market economy which supports free enterprise as it protects people, living things, property rights and the environment from corporate abuses. Next time a politician carte blanche says regulations are bad, ask which ones he/she is specifically referring to and why? Surely most landowners would wholeheartedly agree with Advocate Karen Johnson and applaud any changes made to strengthen regulations protecting our property rights.

Totally disgusted Dear Editor I am responding to a letter in your paper from last week. I am totally disgusted with the Clearview School Boards reaction to a child with Autism. Why are they not willing to work with this student and his parents, instead of banning him from getting an education. They have known since he started school that he has had this disability. Now all of a sudden, because he was banned from taking an exit from a situation to which he was not able to

handle, he is banned from going to school. Thus causing him more frustration and feeling discouraged. I am a grandparent of a child of Aspergers. During his school year, at times, it was very confusing for him but AT LEAST he had teachers and school staff that supported him . He has now graduated, finished cadets and is a working member of society. Maybe the board should take a lesson from him. Reinstate this child so he also can get an education. Turn to Rise, Pg 7

PRAIRIEVIEW

Wealth creation by Herman Schwenk Socialists just don’t get it! They seem to think if it weren’t for the billionaires of this world, we would all be enjoying a better and equal standard of living. Their theory is that every dollar that a billionaire has accumulated and squirreled away is a dollar that was taken away from some poor soul living below the poverty line. They are convinced that if billionaires had less money the rest of us would have more. I will agree that corporate executives can be greedy. There is no way that anyone needs that kind of wealth. However, I don’t think the economy would be any different if they had far less wealth. The big problem for the rest of us, and especially the socialists, is the optics of their wealth. It just doesn’t seem fair. The simple fact is what makes the economy work in a country is the wealth creation ability of that nation. Socialists think that all a government has to do for a sound economy is to create jobs. Well, it is a futile exercise if a large number of those jobs don’t create wealth one way or another. Governments are not wealth creators, rather the services provided by government are wealth consumers. The money to provide those services has to come from somewhere. Both our federal and our provincial governments are spending large sums of money on jobs that do not create wealth . A government has to have a bureaucracy and the country has to provide infrastructure, as those are necessary services, however the money must be spent wisely. So where does the money come from to pay for these services? The majority of it does not come from the pay cheques of an overpaid bureaucracy or from implementing a new tax that will make industry even more unproductive. For a period of over 70 years the Soviet Union provided a job for every one in the Federation but in the end

every one was living in poverty except the people that were running the government. In my opinion, it takes investorowned corporations and private industry to create the environment that will produce real wealth. Industries that develop resources and industries that manufacture goods for public consumption and export are examples of industries that produce real wealth. It is the efficiency in the production from these industries that creates the wealth for governments to derive the revenue they need to pay for government services. Competition among industries creates the efficiency for wealth creation. The reason that government-run business is inefficient is because there is no competition, so the incentive to be efficient is lacking. Governments that spend money

It takes investorowned corporations and private industry to create the environment that will produce real wealth.

faster than the country can generate it, end up with deficit budgets and a stagnate economy. A good example is the Government of Ontario with its “Green Energy Act”. It has invested in an industry that has consumed wealth to the point where many of its citizens can no longer afford to pay for electricity. As a result, the province now has the highest sub-sovereign debt in the developed world. Say what you want, had the Ontario Government let the billionaire executives run the economy instead of focusing on the impossible goal of reducing C02 emissions to control climate change it would still be a “have province”.

National security, the reason for the uproar Dear Editor, I’m surprised at writer’s perpetuation of the confusion surrounding this whole immigration question in the column titled: Immigrants, refugees not the enemy, pg. 6, Mar. 7, 2017. She opens against what she terms “those who subscribe to a radical right-wing ideology”, and then proceeds to further muddy the waters. What is the main point of this editorial? She unloads on “baby boomers” as being a financial burden to our country. Then, she goes on to an immigration policy and racial tension. These are two separate matters. The connection Schimke tries to make between the two is weak and I think somewhat self-serving. First of all, I have no disagreement with the fact that end of life care for baby boomers is a huge expense that is unsupported by the number of babies we’ve had. No contest. Secondly, I am in full agreement

that a responsible immigration policy will help to offset the childbirth deficit. I’m fully in favour of a responsible immigration policy. Third, racism is a fact. It has always been a fact. What is being called racism in this discussion, is not necessarily so. The immigration problem that has resulted in labelling people as xenophobic, Islamophobic, redneck, hateful and as subscribing to

a radical right-wing ideology, is the irresponsible immigration policy introduced during the federal election campaign, and continuing today.

It is the irresponsibility of our new Liberal government that has people so worked up. Turn to Open, Pg 8

42ND ANNUAL

Child misdiagnosed with head lice Dear Editor, Recently my child had won an online bid for the Cystic Fibrosis of Canada’s yearly annual event known as the Stettler Princess Ball . The package that my child won included a limo ride, hair and nails done, as well as entry for two to the ball. When it was time to do her hair, the hairdresser at a local shop in central Alberta refused based on a diagnosis of head lice. Her information and misdiagnosis was then passed on to the organizers of the event who basically refused her entry based on this misdiagnosis. I was offered a partial payment back but the question as to why remains unanswered. Was it based on race ? Was it based on income ? I immediately took my child to

Open doors

Cont’d from Pg 7 The open doors policy, that favours inadequately vetted refugees has caused the anger. It is not uncompassionate to say that, nor is it racist, or any of those other derogatory names. All nations have borders. All nations have immigration policies. Sovereign Nations have a right to perform due diligence before allowing unknown people to enter their country. Their citizens expect that. Our citizens expect that. Justin Trudeau has unilaterally decided that these matters of national security are unimportant. That is why we are in an uproar. That is the point of the discussion. Let’s not muddy the waters by labelling one another. Rather, let’s have a rational discussion about national security in the context of immigration policy. Mike Bertin Big Valley, Alberta

emergency to check for possible head lice, because a person certainly does not want to spread lice. However, the doctor, who has the credentials, stated no head lice was in her hair, leaving me to believe my child was discriminated against.

As a result of that discrimination, she was denied access because of a hairdresser that had basically no credentials to properly diagnosis a case of head lice. Crystal Day Chief Big Valley, Ab.

BASHAW COUNCIL

Pay for pet licenses on time or pay more later Lisa Joy

ECA Review reporter

animal licenses in Bashaw are bought after Jan. 31. “This creates a delay in providing an updated list to Animal Bylaw Enforcement.” Mayor Penny Shantz suggested this year council make the deadline June 1. Coun. Bryan Gust said 2017 will be a transition year for residents and in 2018 they could make the deadline Jan. 31 to pay for animal licenses before owners are faced with an increase for late payment. Turn to Health, Pg 14

Anyone who hasn’t paid for their pet’s license fees by June 1 will have to pay more. Council, during its regular meeting March 2, agreed that residents have until June 1 to renew their licenses for cats and dogs. After that the fee is increased by $10 for spayed/neutered pets and $20 for unaltered pets. The town’s current animal control bylaw sets out an $18 licensing fee for spayed/neutered pet and $36 ph. 780-879-3927 • allianc@wildroseinternet.ca for an unaltered pet.

Worse off

Cont’d from Pg 12 Countries with billionaires, generally speaking, will have a higher standard of living than countries with socialist governments. People on the left have this idea that the social problems of people living below the poverty line are caused by rich people. Their solution is to redistribute wealth by taxing the rich people who created the wealth. They cannot figure out that this just makes everyone worse off. It may be fair game to dump on the rich and famous but don’t under estimate their value to the economy.

two week teaching job lasted 25 years

Margaret Merchant was born April 27, 1929 at Gadsby, Ab., one of 12 children born to Archie and Martha McKay. She was the first of her siblings born in Canada. The family lived at Westwood’s community until her mother passed away when Margaret was only 13. At that time she went to live with her oldest sister’s family, Mary and Elmer Smith at Castor. She completed her junior and senior high school at Theresetta where Uncle Elmer was a teacher. At the end of her Grade 12, Margaret won a scholarship to further her education and went to University of Alberta Normal School. Her first teaching post was at Lauderdale –a one room school with grades 1 to 8. In conversation one time, she mentioned that some of the grade 8 boys were bigger than her. In 1950 she and her younger sister came to Coronation where she had a teaching Merchant position. A local girl, Sheila Merchant, became friends with them and kept telling her brother Don about the virtues of the new teacher. Curiosity overcame Don. It didn’t take very long to become smitten and they were married on a very rainy July 6, 1951. In 1953, Linda was born followed by Allan in 1954. Unfortunately a farm accident took Allan into God’s hands when he was two. In 1956 Ross became part of the family and in 1962 Neil joined his older brother and sister. Margaret went back to teaching at the beginning of the 1965/66 school year. It was not in her plan at all but a temporary two week teaching job lasted 25 years. In late August, Don Kilback the principal at the school came for coffee. His plight was dire. It was a week till school opened and they did not have a grade seven teacher for the “new” math program. She finally agreed and the rest, they say, is history. She retired in 1987 and her and Don took up travelling and managing the senior’s manors, Kings Court and Windsor Manor for a number of years. After Don passed away in 1995, she kept herself busy with her home, her flowers and watching her birds. She especially enjoyed her kids, grandchildren and great grandchildren and coaching her beloved “Blue Jays” from her chair and cheering on her Oilers. She lived on the farm a mile north and a mile west of Coronation for the past 65 years.

She did it her way

friends and family that helped them get through the difficult time of losing their Mom, Grandma, Aunt and Friend. To all those that helped during the service and all those that sent food, flowers, donations and kept them in their thoughts and prayers. To Parkview Funeral Chapels for their guidance and support with allowing us to have a service of remembrance for Margaret that we will cherish. With heartfelt thanks, Linda and Ray Ross and Sasha Neil and Terri and our families.

Cont’d from Pg 14 This winter Margaret had a brief time of feeling unwell. When the idea of a temporary move for winter months was broached, she told Linda, “I’m not moving anywhere. My next move is to the cemetery.” She won---she did it her way!!!!! Funeral services were held in the Coronation Community Hall on Thurs., March 2, 2017 at 2 p.m. with Rev. Barbara Zimmerman officiating. Brother-in-law, Dale Merchant gave the tribute and her loving grandchildren shared stories of Margaret’s life and adventures, especially the cat. Nephew and niece Doug and Shirley McKay presented their gift of music and song. Margaret was laid to rest in the Coronation Cemetery beside her beloved husband Don at 11 a.m. with her grandchildren: Donald, Dale Krysta, Karen Osetsky and Daneca Leatherdale and Justin Merchant as pallbearers. Family and friends gathered after the service for a time of fellowship and a luncheon by the Coronation Community Lunch Committee. Long time friend Jim Campion gave a loving tribute of his working and personal friendship with the Merchant family. Donations in Margaret’s name may be made to Trinity United Church or the Coronation Cemetery. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.parkviewfuneralchapels.com .
