A small collection of onlookers gathered at Coronation Airport on Friday, September 6 to witness the debut of STARS new donorfunded AW139 helicopter. The craft landed at the airport at approximately 1:45 p.m. to engage in outreach training in advance of becoming fully operational by the end of September. According to a STARS press release, the new BK139 incorporates faster response times, a twin engine for greater lifting capacity and a de-icing system to enable prompt responses in unfavourable weather conditions. Another feature of the new helicopter is a roomier medical interior space and side loading capacities, which Flight Nurse Lucille De Baudrap said

is an asset for patients. “In the [previous model] BK, the area they would load patients into was quite a bit narrower and we would load from the back,” De Baudrap said, noting that the patient would be against a side wall, making uniform access to injury at times a difficult task. “Here you can access the patient from both sides, and easily,” she says, “So apart from it being faster and doing all these other things, I have better access to the patient.” The tracks in the interior loading panel are multidimensional, meaning the patient can be loaded at a vertical, horizontal, or slanted motion. STARS responded 1, 539 times to emergencies in 2012, so the new helicopters are a welcome addition to ensuring safety across the region.

STETTLER COUNCIL

Short-term inconvenience for Stettler Recreation Centre users Brenda Schimke News Journalist Users of the Stettler Recreation Centre will be inconvenienced as the paving of the entire parking lot is underway. “It’s a big project and with hockey started it will be awkward,” said Greg Switensky, Assistant CAO at the regular Stettler Town Council meeting on September 3, 2013.

Replacements Keith’s Refrigeration Ltd., the lowest bidder, was awarded the contract to replace the air conditioning roof top units at the A.E. Kennedy Building for $57, 100 plus tax. Council also learned that the roof-top heating unit for the red hockey rink wasn’t working and will need to be replaced before winter. Administration was directed to bring back a recommendation for its replacement and to assess whether it would make economic sense to replace the heating unit on the blue rink at the same time. Although still working, it is undersized according to the new code.

Parking lot Grading private gravel parking lots was inadvertently missed when approval was given to revise procedures for sweeping private, paved parking lots. Unanimous approval was received to change the procedures to include both sweeping and grading of private parking lots.

Specifically, the town will endeavour to provide, on a discretionary annual basis, one free parking lot sweeping and/or gravel parking lot grading as a service for not-for-profits, including government-run facilities such as schools and health care facilities.

Upcoming election

Everyone was feeling the heat as businesses participated in the first ever Stettler Steel Wheel Rib Cook-off. Winning coveted title of Best Ribs was Sears of Stettler, who also won Best Overall Rib Experience. Best Sauce went to Brennen Funeral Home & Cremation Services.

Next meeting The next meeting is Tuesday, September 17, 2013 at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Town of Stettler offices.

Skateboard park Council received copies of the final design of the skateboard park which they said looks great. The Skateboard Committee has enough funds to do the first phase of the project, and will bite off the other phases as funds are raised.

Whether it’s a small model m rocket or a giant rocket to Mars, the science behind how rockets work is the same.

UFA

A rocket needs a propellant – fuel to push it up into the air. NASA rockets use fuels such as liquid hydrogen. But to launch a soda bottle rocket, air pressure does the trick!

UFA is awarding five - $50,000 community awards as a way of giving back to the communities where they serve. Because the deadline is tight, and it is a province-wide program that will likely generate much interest, Council agreed to send the information to both the Ag Society and the Skateboard Committee to see if either is able to put together an application on short notice.

Forestburg Council fights to fix issues before election Logan Taylor

ECA Review News Reporter An eventful meeting for the Forestburg Town Council took place on the September 5, 2013 that may herald some changes for the municipality, who are seeking to clean up several issues before the election this year.

Upcoming energy plans

Eshpeter said he would be able to see council ‘after harvest.’ Council discussed that this issue is increasingly important after Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM)’s recent meeting in Montréal decided that “municipalities need to know what dangerous goods are being transported through their

communities” and “railways and federal agencies cannot plan for emergencies alone.”

Other news There was discussion of the repairs of multiple small potholes and minor problems with drainage within the town. Motion was passed for Public Works to review all of

A delegate from the company 8760 Energy attended the meeting and spoke to council about their energy pricing plans. The town’s current energy provider, AMSC offers five year contracts; 8760 Energy said they offer a variety of contracts from one to three years. The town’s current contract with AMSC ends December 31, 2013. “We will inform AMSC of the possibility of a new provider, and give them the invitation to also present new contract terms to us before we make a final decision,” Mayor Robert Frizzell said. Debra Moffat, CAO, said there was discernible variance in customer service between the two companies. “I find the difference between AMSC and 8760 Energy is they will speak plain English,” she said, “They will actually sit down and explain things to you, rather than assume you understand their technical terminology.”

CNIB

Heartland Hearing

Emergency plan update Mayor Frizzell said he had made slight progress with contacting the Battle River Railway (BRR) on the issue of their lack of an emergency plan during an accidental encounter with Ken Eshpeter of BRR. Frizzell said he encouraged Eshpeter to attend a council meeting as soon as possible, and that Eshpeter said he had a busy schedule and felt that risk of a railway disaster was very low in the area.

Enjoy the taste of B.C.

In relation to all the issues that came up at this meeting, Mayor Frizzell said “With the upcoming election we should be insuring that everything is dealt with and secure, if we are still here next term or not.” Nomination day for the election is September 23rd.

Water treatment plant issues It was discussed that to date council still had not heard back from the engineer assigned to plan the new Town Water Treatment Plant. “I am getting very frustrated,” Moffat said, “I write to him, email him, call him and there is no flow of information. We are of the opinion that these delays could cause increases in the cost of the project and could also put us at risk of the province pulling our funding due to such a delay in construction.” In March of 2012 council received approval for the funding of a new Water Treatment Plant, and alerted their engineer immediately to begin crafting plans. Earlier this year, the province said that due to budget cuts the Plant would no longer get funding, but their grant would still be honoured. However, the engineer discontinued work on the project due to his misunderstanding of the cut, believing that reduced funds meant the project was cancelled. Council passed a motion to hold a special meeting on September 10 to speak with the engineer in person on the issue. “We should be contacting other engineers and make it very clear to him that we are,” Moffat said.

the trouble areas and make a listing for Council’s approval. Then they will be doing some of these minor repairs next year, depending on the money earned this year. “We take pride in our town and want it looking its best and running smoothly,” Councilor Oberg said about the pothole issue.

ECA Review News Reporter “Not a lot happening in the rec news… I’ve been on the phone a lot,” said Councillor Troy Slemp, at the beginning stages of council on September 9, 2013. He began by speaking to the feedback for minor hockey to date, noting that the numbers were good, and discrepancies in team sizes were remedied by incorporating Coronation players where needed. He said that numbers weren’t strong enough for a girls team this year. The pool report went well generally, with budget and organization both satisfactory to council. No motion was necessary. Discussed in brief were issues with the pumps in the pool, and that due to issues of size and turnover, it may be something council had to consider in future. It was noted that, as the floors were recently fixed at the pool, the idea of returning for a second round of construction seemed illogical. The possibility of installing a booster pump was offered as a temporary option for the pump issues, but safety concerns overshadowed this course of action.

Draft plan The documentation of the Shirley McClellan Regional Water Services Commission (SMRWSC) Business plan update was provided to council. A new draft for pump lines was drawn up and referenced in the document, that was briefly summerized by CAO Sandy Jackson to be more easily understood. It was discussed that some of the aspects of the plan were outdated and some were problematic in that it was difficult to calculate volumes and fill lines. Mayor Garry DeVloo noted that the beginning stages of planning were accounting for developments that never materialized, but it was noted that if they ever did develop land, a bigger line or another reservoir would be necessary.

Proposed fundraiser A fundraiser at the Castor Golf Club was proposed as a Christmas party venue on November 22. The fee would be $50 per councillor and all prep, food and a hypnotist show would be organized by the club. Mayor DeVloo said that in years past a Christmas party would take place upon the conclusion of an election. Sandi Jackson noted that she didn’t foresee having a lot of money to fund such a venture this year, and it was generally agreed that this was the case. Motion to file was thus carried.

Sewer bill The Castor golf club was looking to council for assistance in paying a sewer bill of $783.25. It was discussed that due to a break-in earlier in the year that resulted in over $1000 stolen, the course was at a disadvantage in paying. Mayor DeVloo, standing as part of the Golf club board, asked if he should declare a conflict of interest. He ultimately decided to abstain from comment. It was discussed that the course has an outstanding balance owing to the town of $19, 228.78 plus utilities for the month of August. Proceeding this was some discussion of concern for the mounting loan. It was noted that the course did well financially this year, and have plans to hook up a waterline for next year. It was also discussed that a letter was being drafted to inquire for the loan at present. Ultimately, it was decided that this loan should be tacked on to what is currently owed. Motion to pay Castor Sheet Metal for the amount owing and add the balance to the total owed to the town, was carried.

Graham and Julie have moved to an acreage near Entwhisle. Chad grew up in Melville SK on a farm where his folks still live. Donald and Lorraine Smeby have purchased the two lots next to the hall. Donald and Lorriane have done a lot of traveling around the US and Canada. Tom Voros is the new neighbour to the west in the former Alphonse Perreault farm. He came from Sedgewick and is excited to have a piece of property to develop for his horses and roping pastime. The museum signs along the highway have a cute doll standing beside them and a protective fence around. The Alliance Trading Post (old hardware store) has a new front. Richard St. Louis and Jerry Grant have installed vinyl siding over the old windows. At the Women’s Institute (WI) meeting the topic for program was health, with focus on Dementia and an emphasis on Alzheimer’s. Mention was made of the need for the care giver to take care of her/ himself and then many pointers given as how that could be accomplished. As Lilas says, “ I never go to a WI meeting that I don’t learn something.” So true. Ross and Karin McCracken and Brad Stoner attended a family reunion at Chilliwack in August. The reunion was on Brad’s grandmothers’ side, the Johnsons. It is time for the civic elections soon. I have always said that the reason Alliance is still an active village is because we have had great leadership from the mayors and councilors that we have had the fortune to have over the years. Intended for last week. Lorraine Schofield, daughter Kathryn, granddaughter Sarah and sister Genny all went to Antigonish, NS for a family reunion. There were 13 siblings in the Brosha family and all 13 were in attendance at the reunion. Congratulations to Brittany Newby and Derek Eberle on the birth of a son on August 15 at Daysland. William Charles is a brother to Steven, who starts school this year. William Charles arrived weighing seven pounds, six ounces. Happy Grandmas are Yvonne Newby and Sandra Eberle of Killam.

OPINION

Consider this the nudge Brenda Schimke

ECA Review Journalist The nomination deadline for municipal elections in Alberta is Monday, September 23, 2013. Voters go to the polls on Monday, October 21, 2013 to elect those officials that will guide school boards, town/village councils and counties/special areas for the next four years. Many dedicated local officials are planning to let their names stand for re-election. Others have chosen to step down believing that they have contributed and now it’s time for fresh, new ideas. Others have said they may run again but would be very happy to step away should other citizens come forward to run. Local governments and school boards need good leaders. They need representation from all walks of life and from a variety of age groups to best represent their constituents. Too often in rural Alberta candidates get elected by acclaThe best mation. Yet, it’s when multiple candidates candidates listen run, that voters truly get an opportunity to and value other vote for what is important to them. people’s ideas and If you’ve been considering running, but don’t always have just need a little to get their nudge, consider this the nudge. own way. The best candidates don’t have any particular agenda besides making their municipality/school district the best it can be for its constituents. The best candidates listen and value other people’s ideas and don’t always have to get their own way. The best candidates have a vision and opinions and clearly articulate them. Different ideas and debate make for strong local representation. The best candidates understand compromise is the name of the game. Budgets are limited and competing interests are many. The best candidates respect others and are team players. Elected local government and school board positions can be very interesting and rewarding. It can also be scary, time-consuming, frustrating and you’re certainly not going to get rich (no Senate perks here). Yet it’s a great opportunity for giving back and growing as an individual and a citizen. Take the plunge, sign the nomination papers and file them before the September 23 deadline. Don’t miss your opportunity to shape the future!

AHS committed to working with Consort Dear Editor, Ensuring that we continue to have sustainable health care services in rural Alberta is a discussion that will involve everyone – residents, businesses and health care providers. In the Village of Consort, Alberta Health Services (AHS) has been facilitating this discussion with the local community in a variety of ways, including a small working group made of local physicians, community leaders and the Consort and District Medical Board. The focus of much of these discussions is the Consort Hospital and Care Centre, which offers 15 long-term care beds, lab, x-ray and outpatient care as well as the future of the five acute care beds and emergency department services which had to be temporarily closed in 2011 due to a shortage of

Doing the math on provincial deficit Canadian Taxpayers Federation At the end of August, Finance Minister Doug Horner released the province’s first quarter Fiscal and Economic Update. The minister boasted that Alberta’s books might end up between a $247 million deficit and a $250 million surplus when the year is finished. The headlines of the minister’s press release tried to spin these numbers to the media and voters, but the charts stapled to the back of it told a very different story. In fact, the numbers show that even though the province had a welcomed bump in revenues during the first three months of

Discussions in Consort have resembled discussions in many parts of rural Canada – availability of doctors, the types of services that should be available in a rural community, and how the health authorities should plan for the future in an age of ever increasing budgetary considerations. Sustainable and appropriate service delivery includes an understanding that to run a service 24 hours per day, every day, takes a team and cannot rely on unsustainable demands put on individual service providers. The quality and safety of care to patients is directly linked to the state of health of the care providers. No one can sustain being on duty 24 hours per day every day or every other day.

Communities of practice need to be established between communities to ensure we don’t burn out our physicians, hence perpetuating the cycle of physician loss and the need to recruit. It should be clear that while there are no easy answers to international issues such as doctor shortages, AHS remains committed to reaching solutions with the local community in the form of a long-term plan that meets their demonstrated needs now and into the future. Together we’ll build a sustainable plan for health services in the area; one that ensures we are able to provide reliable services that are less susceptible to current, and future, physician and staff shortages.

the fiscal year, it is still on track to post a consolidated deficit of $4.9 billion; not including any flood related spending. So why is there a $4.6 billion difference between what the government says the deficit is, and what the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) says it is? Last year, the province repealed the Government Accountability Actas well as radically changed its accounting practices. Both lead to sharp criticism from Alberta’s übber polite Auditor-General Merwan Saher. The changes effectively took $5.2 billion in annual capital spending

off the main set of books so that it wouldn’t count when tallying up the surplus or deficit. This is because Mr. Horner believes that the deficit should only account for the day-to-day spending of the government, and not total revenue versus total expenditures. Of the $5.2 billion being spent on capital in fiscal year 2013-14, $4.6 billion (89 per cent) is borrowed. That is capital spending that the province has to raise either through public-private-partnerships (P3s) or through old-fashioned debt. Turn to No Estimate, Pg 8

LEGISLATURE

Yet another reason to protect our property rights Rick Strankman MLA Drumheller Stettler Property rights are the most important fundamental rights anyone possesses in a democratic society. These rights must come complete with protections from unreasonable search and seizure under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or you actually have no property rights. Section 8 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms provides everyone in Canada with protection against unreasonable search and seizure. This right provides Canadians with their primary source of constitutionally enforced privacy rights against unreasonable intrusion from the state. On Thursday, September 5 in a high school gymnasium, approximately 350 residents of High River gathered to make some sense of what took place

immediately following the June flood that devastated their town. They wanted to know why their property rights had been removed arbitrarily and who ordered this to be done. The questions being asked by the residents were very simple and clear. Who gave the order to violate their homes and seize their property? Who will be paying for the damage done to their property and when will those funds be paid? RCMP Staff Sergeant Ian Shardlow, who only assumed command of the High River detachment in mid July, bravely faced the crowd and gave what little information he could to the residents in attendance, but his answers were unsatisfactory to the crowd. Other guests invited to the event, hosted by the Wildrose Official Opposition Leader Danielle Smith, included the Premier and the Municipal Affairs Minister, both of whom chose not to attend.

One resident explained that his â&#x20AC;&#x153;steel door was bent, creased and beat to blazes. It came off the hinges and broke my wall as well, causing over $1,600 dollars damage to the home, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still not fixed.â&#x20AC;? The resident also pointed out in a letter handed out at the meeting from the RCMP to Lee Cutforth, Albertaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Property Rights advocate, the RCMP claimed this was done to protect property - the irony was not lost on the crowd. With the passing of Bills 19, 24, 36, and 50 in 2009, property rights in Alberta have been on shaky ground. Bill 36 goes so far as to removing your right to seek legal action if land is confiscated under the Bill. Now it appears the Alberta government has found a new way to violate this basic right that all Albertans should have entrenched and out of the reach of government. At some point in the near future the people of High River may get the answers

theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be satisfied with that. By passing the Alberta Property Rights Preservation Act, it will entrench basic property rights in the Alberta Bill of Rights and spearhead a national initiative to add property rights to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. As a member of the Wildrose caucus, I will strive to have your property rights protected. If you have any questions concerning this article please contact my office.

New reporter at ECA Review The ECA Review would like to introduce Katie Davis as our new reporter/ photographer. Katie comes from Caledon, Ontario, a small town northwest of Toronto (and two-time winner of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Safest Town in Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by Macleans Magazine). Katie went to Mayfield Secondary School for Visual Arts and participated on their Maverick Hockey Team, which won the provincial title in 2000. She decided not to pursue art after high-school, instead opting to go to Western University for Davis Media, Information and Technoculture. It was here she learned about new media technology in all itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manifestations, both positive and negative, and became enamoured with journalism. After a few years of travel and living/ working in Scotland, England, Whistler,

BC and Collingwood, Ontario, Katie returned to school for a diploma in New Media Journalism at Sheridan College and did her internship in Videography at CBC Toronto. It was then she applied for the ECA Review and was plucked up by Publisher Joyce Webster. She looks forward to covering all events and issues that are in the public interest to know, as well as improving her golf game, getting involved in local sports, snowboarding in wintertime and spending time perfecting her guitar playing and painting skills. If anyone has a story to tell, knows of an event that should be covered, or has a tip off on an issue of importance, Katie would love you to email her at news1@ecareview.com. She looks forward to being a part of East Central Alberta.

REVIEW East Central Alberta

No estimate was provided on flooding spending Cont’d from Pg 6 Taken together with the operating shortfall of $247 million, Alberta has a consolidated deficit of $4.9 billion. However, the CTF’s calculation of a $4.9 billion deficit doesn’t take into account flood related spending. While Premier Redford has stated that the flood’s price tag will be “well over” $5 billion, Finance Minister Horner opted not to include any estimate of what portion Alberta would be on the hook for after insurance and federal aid. Further, no estimate was provided as to what fiscal years flood spending was expected to fall into. In the absence of official

government estimates, we can expect that Alberta’s share will fall between $1 billion and $3 billion. Now tack that onto our deficit of $4.9 billion and Alberta could come up $7 billion short on the high end. Recently, Premier Redford responded in writing to the CTF’s earlier calls for a budget revamp. In the letter, Premier Redford directly opened the door to borrowing for the flood, but said that it may not be necessary because the government had $3.3 billion left in the Sustainability Fund (now called the Contingency Account). This is technically true, but fails to take into account that Alberta is already borrowing $4.6 billion for

its Capital Plan deficit, and will draw down the Sustainability Fund by approximately $226 million for the Operating Plan. In short, Alberta was already borrowing against the entire Sustainability Fund (and more) for the Capital Plan, and was planning on spending some of it directly. Or put another way, it’s like keeping a small amount of cash in the bank while you take out a large line of credit. Long story short: grab a bailer Alberta, this flood isn’t over yet.

County of Paintearth - Planning ahead for gravel purchase Katie Davis

ECA Review News Reporter Ed Manz, Superintendent of Public Works for the County of Paintearth began the meeting on September 4, 2013 by proposing options for the next gravel purchase and haul. Although the anticipated funds for this transport would be coming out of the 2014 budget, Manz brought it up ahead of time so that the wording and intent of the Request for proposal (RFP) could be sorted. After some discussion, it was determined that the RFP should specify prices for both regular and modified gravel, in quantities of minimum 20-thousand tonnes seeking acquisition of up to 30-thousand tonnes. County Administrator Tarolyn Peach noted that the decision to purchase would be something that would have long-term benefits, rather than immediate. She noted that the County has “a road development budget of 2.2 million [dollars]; nothing specifically for gravel.” “What will happen is you won’t decrease the quantity until it goes on the road,” Peach said, “You purchase it, you assets go up, but you’re cash poor.” Motion to put out tender was ultimately carried.

areas - such as culverts-versus low risk areas, and cleaning frequency during seasonal changes. Discussed was the possibility of building portable pressure washers to mount on the trailers. Jeff Manz said this could be done for likely under $2000 per trailer and would eliminate travelling to the yard every time cleaning was needed. Cosens expressed that this was more of a work procedure than policy issue, as procedural obligations are easier to change and enforce, and if cleaning was a daily endeavour it was a procedural change. Council accepted the washing between sites as a procedural guideline to minimize risk of transfer of weeds and diseases, and motion to accept as a procedural guideline was carried.

Coronation Gravel haul

Heavy equipment cleaning

A request was made from the Town of Coronation to haul dirt from nearby Cemetery Road - by the dam - into town, and thus they would like a ban relaxed on that road, presently at 75 per cent. It was discussed that due to contaminated soil being hauled to the landfill site in times past, polluted dirt was not an issue. It was decided that the ban would be relaxed to 90 per cent, at a maximum speed of 40 km to reduce possible roadway damage. No motion was necessary.

At approximately 9:30 a.m., Agricultural Fieldman Jeff Cosens brought up a new policy for equipment cleaning. This was in response to concerns that the spreading of weeds, such as chamomile, and possible diseases could occur if back-sloping equipment - Cats, loaders and backhoes for example - did not return to the yard for washing between sites. Possible costs incurred were discussed, such as increased cost of jobs, job reduction due to cleaning times and stricter work schedules. Also discussed was the between cleaning procedures in high risk

Diane Schmidt, community liaison for the Coronation Support Services and representative for ChooseWell, approached council for support of a grant proposal to re-do the walking path to the Coronation campsite. The proposal for $32,000, would see the path paved and six pieces of wooden fitness equipment - such as a balance beam - placed at intervals along the path. It was discussed that the Town would do repairs and equipment maintenance; also discussed was the possibility of

‘selling’ benches for memorial purposes. Walter Webber, from District 5, inquired as to why the path needed paving. Schmidt said that paving would make the path multi-purpose, so that cyclists or people in wheelchairs could use the path with ease. Motion passed to craft a letter of support from the county. Motion to participate in an Alberta Municipal Data Sharing Partnership (AMDSP) mapping project, which would create a local depository of digital data of all southern municipalities, was passed. Motion to keep wages for Elections staff at $20 per hour, with paid training, miles and meals, was passed.

In 2011, the average Alberta gross farm income was $264,518, the farm operating expenses totaled $224, 607 for a net farm income of $39,911. Along with fertilizer and chemicals, family household expenditures are often one of the top three expenses that a farm has. Although it is a top expense, many do not know what their total personal expenses are. “Household demographics, the stage of the family’s life cycle, and family’s living expectations all contributed to different consumption demands,” says Dehod. “Keeping good records of personal expenses is just as important as keeping good records for the farm business. We often talk about efficiency and scale, but needs and wants can affect the long-term viability and success of the farm. Knowing how personal expenses fit into the farm’s strategic plan and the family’s goals and aspirations will help when managing your finances and the ultimate success of your farm operation.” 2011 Census data indicates 98 per cent of Alberta farms are operated by farm families. The ability of the farm to provide the farm family with a reasonable standard of living remains crucial to Alberta’s rural fabric. It’s important to know what your income needs are, knowing what your personal needs are and how you will generate the income to fill those needs. This knowledge will also help manage your wants, as they are what can often get farm families into trouble. “A family farm creates self-employment so managing the income to meet the needs of the farm and the needs of the family is hard to separate but always important to consider and a challenge to manage,” says Dehod.

Agri-News Farm financial specialists often speak about cost of production, return on assets, return on equity and maximizing returns. Agricultural lenders often assessed loan requests on three premises: does the farm create enough gross income to pay its operating costs as they come due? does the farm make all of its debt payments on their due dates? does the farm provide the farm family with a reasonable standard of living? What it really comes down to and the main concern for most farmers’ is whether or not they can make a living farming. “Farm families, today, enjoy the same standard of living as their urban counterparts,” says Rick Dehod, agriculture farm financial specialist with Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development. “The most recent Statistics Canada data shows that the difference between household expenditures of an urban and rural household is relatively small, with the major difference being the cost of shelter. In 2011, total expenditures for an average Alberta household was $87,267, and ‘total current consumption’ was $64,453. (see chart) “These household expenditures may seem high for the average farm family, but most often some expenditures such as shelter, household operation and transportation blur between farm expenses and personal expenses. In the end, there is only one pot of money that both expenses can come out of.” Farm financial specialists often speak about cost of production, return on assets, return on equity and maximizing returns.

ECA REVIEW

Great new appliances for your kitchen The era of washing machines with hand-cranked wringers is long gone. These days, household appliances are totally amazing, especially those dedicated to culinary tasks. Some look like works of art and others can carry out every imaginable function.

Decorative kitchen fans Nowadays, kitchen extractor fans, or hoods, are not what they used to be. These unattractive pieces of metal have now been transformed into decorative accessories. Today’s hood can be chimney style, built-in, integrated, free-standing, designed to hang over an island, or even come in the form of suspended light fixtures. Amazing!

Steam ovens are hot Using a steam oven is very healthy: fewer vitamins are lost in this form of cooking and there’s no need to use fat, such as butter or oil, to grease the bottom of a

pan. It’s perfect for vegetables, fish and stews. The ideal model is one which combines convection with steam so that it can also be used for grills and gratins.

Ergonomic drawer dishwashers Drawer dishwashers are user-friendly household appliances which can greatly facilitate our lives. These compact appliances make it even easier to load dishes and they can easily accommodate oversize platters and fragile long-stemmed glasses.

The ultimate in trendy kitchens Are you thinking about renovating your kitchen? Would you like to have upto-the-minute furniture in surroundings that are both contemporary and stunning? If so, take note that European trends are the flavour of the day â&#x20AC;&#x201D; think uncluttered kitchens, clean lines, and dynamic colours.

Give me colour! Two-toned furniture is turning heads these days. The trend is towards cabinets that marry white with another colour. For example, white can be accompanied by a naturally polished wood such as walnut or cherry. But an explosion of colour is also possible; two-toned cupboards mixing white doors with emerald green, or firetruck red, or cobalt blue cabinets creates an eye-catching effect. Avoid an overly flashy result by limiting the bright colour to only one section of cabinets.

Prized materials Many different types of materials are popular these days, so there is freedom to choose what meets your needs, budget, and tastes. â&#x20AC;˘ For worktops: quartz, black granite, marble, stainless steel, wood, and even concrete. â&#x20AC;˘ For cupboards: veneer, hardwood, laminate, thermoplastic, and lacquered glass. â&#x20AC;˘ For floors: hardwood, white painted wood, and ceramic. â&#x20AC;˘ For appliances: stainless steel is the enduring trend.

water is cold and red when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot). Professional style faucets with a flexible spout, which imitate the models used in restaurant kitchens, are still very popular.

Easy access shelving Shelves are definitely in. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re perfect for keeping frequently used kitchen articles close at hand, but before installing any, ask yourself if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll use them appropriately. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want your shelves to become overcrowded or a collecting place for junk. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a disorganized type of person, shelves installed underneath a worktop have the advantage of keeping your mess hidden from sight. Lastly, if the idea of planning a new kitchen stresses you out, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hesitate to consult a kitchen designer. This professional will be able to guide you in making the right choices and bring your dream kitchen within your grasp!

Lots of space Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sure to want a big and useful island in your new kitchen. It can be equipped with a sink or even a cooking surface. Think about the practical aspects of the room; extend the cabinets up to the ceiling to increase storage space. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dismiss the possibility of replacing some of the doors under the worktop or in the pantry with drawers, as they are so much more practical. Other gadgets can also make your life easier, such as sliding shelves and hidden recycling bins.

You will be dazzled by your new two-tone kitchen.

Joining me, apparently, was the Ravens’ defence.” • Norman Chad of the Washington Post: “Cowboys coach Jason Garrett has handed the play-calling over to assistant Bill Callahan; this will free him up to take in-game calls and texts from (owner Jerry) Jones, which, in turn, will prevent the ageless monarch from having to bound down onto the ﬁeld late in every game with instructions.” • Greg Cote of the Miami Herald, on Twitter: “NFL opener delayed by weather and lightning threat. ‘That’s what you get for cutting Tebow,’ says God.” • Blogger Bill Littlejohn, on 11-year-old Carson Huey-You starting his freshman year at a Texas university: “He says the fun part so far is tutoring the football team.” • W.C.

Quarterbacks always in the NFL spotlight Bruce Penton Pro football is a quarterback’s game. If you’ve got a good one, you have a chance to win. If your QB is a household name only in his own home, chances are you’re not going to the playoffs. In the National Football League, QB is king. Running back Adrian Peterson of the Vikings may have won the most valuable player award last year, but ask a casual fan to name his Penton 10 favourite NFL players and chances are good that nine of them will play quarterback. There are veteran quarterbacks who are unquestioned stars — Peyton Manning of the Broncos; Tom Brady of New England; Aaron Rodgers of Green Bay; Drew Brees of the Saints; and Peyton’s kid brother, Eli Manning of the

Giants, who has two Super Bowl titles to his name. There are younger quarterbacks, many of whom were part of the astounding rookie class of 2012 — Colin Kaepernick of San Francisco, Russell Wilson of Seattle and Robert Griffin III, better known to fans as RG3, of Washington. Between those oldies and the newbies are a batch of familiar names who are the faces of their teams — Joe Flacco of Baltimore, Matt Ryan of Atlanta, Ben Roethlisberger of Pittsburgh, Matthew Stafford of Detroit, Sam Bradford of St. Louis, Jay Cutler of the Bears and Cam Newton of Carolina Panthers. You don’t believe it’s a quarterback’s league? OK sports fans, name another member of the Panthers besides Newton. Quarterbacks are the faces of these

teams, believe it. Even a quarterback who can’t get a job, Tim Tebow, is far more famous than 95 per cent of the starters at other positions around the league. The best of them all might be the cerebral Peyton Manning, who stunned the sports world on opening night with seven touchdown passes, tying a league record. The last time it was done was 1969. Some people thought he was finished when a series of neck surgeries forced him to miss the 2011 season with Indy. He was declared a free agent and signed with Denver, thanks to the wisdom of another QB with a great pedigree, John Elway, who runs the show for the Broncos. The new season is just nicely under way, but you can bet a dozen winning Pro-Line tickets that when two teams convene for Super Bowl 48 next Feb. 2 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, there won’t be a no-name quarterback in sight.

What should be in a hunter’s backpack? One of the most important pieces of equipment for hunters is a well-packed backpack or shoulder bag. Loaded with a few select essentials, it should be taken every time you go scouting or hunting. Be sure to choose a pack that is comfortable, weatherproof, and noiseless (doesn’t make swooshing sounds as you walk). Waterproof camouflage fabric is preferable but not essential. The extras you pack may depend on the distance you have to cover between your vehicle and your camp, but some articles should always stay in the pack. Here is a basic list of the items to be included: • a multi-purpose tool with a

blade and small saw; • a survival blanket; • a reliable source of fire; • a whistle; • a compass with a map of the area; • a GPS with spare batteries; • a flashlight; • a small survival kit (sold in big box stores, the size of a tin of sardines); • a small first-aid kit; • rope; • brass wire (for building a shelter or a snare); • an orange garbage bag; • a water bottle; • trail marking tape. If the weather is cold, bring along a small thermos with a hot drink, and don’t forget a few energy bars or a snack.

Deer - three things to master As deer hunting season approaches, you’re likely beginning to feel the itch. This is a good time to review the secrets to a successful deer hunt. Sure, hunting’s not something you learn by the book, but better to brush up on theory than have to eat your pride with an empty freezer this fall. Taking care of details can make all the difference between returning home empty-handed or with pride written all over your face.

Scent A deer’s first line of defense is its sense of smell, so take every precaution to mask your own scents. A scent eliminator can be used on your clothes to remove any odors except for those present in the surrounding environment. Know how to take advantage of the wind by deciding which way it is blowing and where your game is travelling from before you set up your stand or blind. Pay careful attention to the lubricants that you use on your weapons.

Sound Deer have a very well developed sense of hearing, and any unusual noise can startle them before you have a chance to shoot. Be sure to minimize any abnormal sounds coming from your stand or blind that could give you away. Wear a safety vest made of fabric rather than noisy vinyl or plastic.

This pack should be with you every time you step out into the bush. Think of it not as your suitcase, but as your survival kit; you should always have with you the basics you’d need to stay warm and protected if you ever lost your way

or got injured and couldn’t walk out. Every time you go hunting, tell someone where you are going and when you plan to be back. Ensure that you contact this person in case of delay, either by cell

or satellite phone or with the new satellite messenger technology, called “SPOT”. It is also recommended that hunters complete a first aid and survival course before venturing into the wilderness. Happy hunting!

‘tis the season! “Come see us for all your firearms, ammunition, and hunting accessory needs. We have a large selection of everything you need to have a successful season.”

Movement A deer does not use its vision as much at its sense of smell and hearing, but it is still a factor that should not be neglected. Even though deer cannot clearly discern colours, they can detect the smallest of movements. Always try and blend into the background in your blind; the secret is to avoid any contrasts. Avoid sudden movements when walking the terrain, and move along the flank of a hillside in order to use the background as camouflage.
