2023 Dummy Downhill shreds the slopes Pass Powderkeg saw crowds come to enjoy the sun and view the annual dummy downhill on Saturday. DEVIN BRADY Pass Herald Community Reporter On Saturday, March 18 the annual Dummy Downhill took place at Pass Powderkeg. An event that is not uncommon among many ski hills, it involves a “dummy”, skis or snowboard(s) and no shortage of creativity. The designs are carted up to the top of the track, once up they are released one by one while the spectators cheer on the racers and wait in anticipation for a crash or a great jump. Crowds of family, friends and other skiers form at the bottom of the run to take in the excitement. Throughout the event there were crashes, flying debris, gentle flops and sleds plummeting down the slope leaving the air thick with excitement. The results were announced later that afternoon at the chalet. There were four categories that were scored: longest jump, best jump, best crash and best design. The winner for longest jump was Stripey Monkey, and best jump was won by Franken Binderborgen. Best crash was won by Fuh-rarri which saw total annihilation of the vehicle and a wheel fly off on course to take out the front row of spectators, leaving the crowd in an enthusiastic frenzy. The final category was for best design which was won by Pirate Penguin Canoe, it graced the slope dawning a masted flag which bore the origin story of the ship and its captain. Future events at Pass Powderkeg can be found at www.passpowderkeg.com under The Mountain then Special Events tab.

Council hears about outdoor rink NICK ALLEN Pass Herald Reporter An outdoor rink delegation spoke at the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass regular council meeting on March 14. Along with several requests for decision, council listened to a delegation of citizens advocating for the
development of an outdoor ice rink. Stacey Kozak was there as part of a delegation to speak on the development of an outdoor rink for the community, and why the Crowsnest Pass should have an outdoor ice rink. She started by introducing herself and explained how she is new to the area. “I’m a fairly new resident to the Pass. I’ve been here full time for just over a year so I don’t profess to know everything. In fact, I know next to nothing, but I do have a group of people who are hopefully going to be committed to helping this project move forward with me,” said Kozak. They hope the outdoor rink can benefit the community and bring some “vibrancy” to the community. “If you put it in a place like Gazebo Park, it could hopefully make downtown [Blairmore] more vibrant and exciting. By doing that, maybe the Pass becomes

more of a draw for visitors and it’s a great, great thing for residents,” explained Kozak. Outdoor skating is something that is accessible and “quite affordable” according to Kozak, even with the free ice time available at the Sportsplex. “Because we know lots of communities around us do have outdoor rinks, I’ve spoken to the people who operate them in Sparwood and Fernie, and a place called Philipsburg, Montana. So they exist in places of similar size, [with] similar climates,” said Kozak. She said the rink could cost anywhere from $5000 to $500,000 depending on the type of rink installed. “If we take the example of our neighbours in Sparwood, there’s probably a cost of about $7500,” she said. The skating path is something people have expressed an interest in according to Kozak, as she was told they got one in Sparwood, and they told her it is not easy to maintain. “At the end of the range, the $500,000, we look at Philipsburg, Montana. They have had an outdoor rink for years, but recently won a large grant where they were able to purchase cooling coils and put [them] in the ground so the quality of [the] ice is just a lot better. The ability to fight the weather is a lot better, but that was 200,000 US and it costs $3000 a month to operate the electricity. So not something that is possible here,” added Kozak. Currently, they are looking for input on a location because “that’s critically important” to its development. They don’t want to put it somewhere where it’s not very accessible to community members and never going to be seen by tourists. Council thanked the delegation but mentioned these types of things typically “go through our recreation board.” The recreation board then sees if the interest from the community is valid and would then send a recommendation to the council.

The Simple Raven’s Post BY AVNER PERL
Can we see into the future? Twenty-two years ago, a few men, mostly from Saudi Arabia, hijacked passenger planes and flew them into big buildings in the USA, including the Pentagon. They showed the world that might, financial and military, are not absolute. The US, which was the only superpower at the time, retaliated by destroying Afghanistan (with our help) Iraq, and some of Syria. The terrorists used box cutters to hurt the Empire, which hurt Arabs back using the most advanced weapons, losing thousands of soldiers and two trillion dollars. If we avoided this whole scenario, then money and people lost could have changed the lives of the people of the US forever. Every resident of the country could have had proper housing, free health care, education, and food. The great country could have helped poor countries and enjoyed friendships all over the world. Two trillion dollars is a lot of money. It was not to be. Who motivates a country to take action that will lead to big changes in the lives of its people? We may say, obviously the politicians who lead the country. Ask the politicians and they will tell you they are representing the people or public opinion. Who forms public opinion? The leaders make statements and laws, but people see them through the filter of the media. Canada, for example, subsidizes some media insisting that they will show both sides. Other countries have only privately owned media where one can choose to learn only the side they already support. Consequently, the public divides evenly and people hold each other in contempt. Russia is one example. When the Ukraine war started, they ordered the media to show only the government’s side. News outlets that didn’t agree with the “special military operation” ended up escaping the country, trying to broadcast from neighboring countries. The people who did that may never be able to visit their homeland again, never mind living there. In America, Julian Assange exposed some of his country’s war crimes in Iraq. The US is seeking to extradite him, which would result in a hundred and seventy years in prison if successful. They will try him on espionage that he didn’t do. He, as a journalist, printed what was handed to him by

a whistle-blower. There is another kind of news media that people don’t credit for what it does. This is what we call the grassroots voice of the people. Little local newspapers or radio stations from small places like here. The big organizations pay attention, trying to gauge public opinion from small communities but get little. The vulnerable little news organizations can be sued, or shunned by political parties that have marketing budgets to promote themselves. Would be nice if provincial and federal governments would allocate funds to keep the little guys in business even if they are honest, but they don’t. We hear announcements about money for little local newspapers but we don’t see any money. Consequently, the little papers restrict themselves to reporting who won a little league game, but we don’t get a lively exchange of ideas. If some residents have political opinions, they send them to bigger papers and magazines, leaving the local media out of the actual news. Countries are governed by politicians who exist thanks to money invested by rich donors, at times other countries such as China. We can’t prove the case, but we know it’s possible. An Ontario provincial politician has just resigned because of accusations of political interference from outside. The government in power is under pressure to investigate the same kind of accusations. If they give in, we will find out that every government in recent history had some dealings with foreign powers. It will shake our confidence in our political system and reduce our ability to govern ourselves. We may find, for example, evidence that mining companies owned by international investors donated to local politics in our area. What will we do then? Since the late sixties, we have invested a lot of public money in space wars and nuclear deterrence. Again, that money could have improved the lives of people in America and the now-defunct Soviet Union. Why do we invest our working lives to promote political ideologies? I studied writings from thousands of years ago. All the people who over generations became famous for their wisdom have one thing in common. It happened in every civilization. The wise people advocated abandoning the race for who will dominate in favour of working together and taking care of each other. King Thoth, the Egyptian guy with the head of a bird who is credited with building the pyramids in Egypt, produced the Emerald Tablets that guided human civilizations. He lived many thousands of years before Christianity, Abraham, and any existing religions. In his writings, he talks about a future in which humankind loses connection with the spiritual side. The description is much like what we see today. There is much destruction and suffering until God returns to stop the great suffering and restore the earth to its original form. We called it the Garden of Eden. We wrote the story; we can change it.

Training for suicide intervention coming to the Crowsnest Pass NICK ALLEN Pass Herald Reporter Organizers for Darcy’s Nature Walk (DNW) for Mental Wellness and the Municipality of the Crowsnest Pass are working together to bring the Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) workshop to the area on April 15 and 16. The two-day workshop around suicide intervention skills “needs more people” to participate. They feel this workshop would be of great value to you or someone you know. According to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) any given year, one in five Canadians experiences a mental illness. By the time Canadians

reach 40 years of age, one in two have, or have had, a mental illness. Because of this, Randi Rinaldi thinks there is a lot of room for improved outcomes for people experiencing poor mental health. She started by giving some back story to the group and what they aim to do. “I am one of the organizers for Darcy’s Nature Walk for Mental Wellness and that’s an event that’s been going on for about 15 years annually. At the event we raise funds that go back into the community to help educate people about mental health,” explained Rinaldi. The course is something they have offered twice before as part of the DNW event, something that stems from her own personal losses involving suicide. “We lost my mom to suicide in 2007 and then later we lost my brother to suicide in 2013. So this course is near and dear to my heart,” added Rinaldi. She said they did not have the confidence to ask her mother or brother about their struggles and she is hoping to help make people more aware of the risk signs surrounding suicide. “Each year, one in six Albertans will seriously think about suicide. There are an average of 2400 hospital stays and more than six thousand emergency room visits for self-inflicted injuries, the result of suicide attempts, annually. More than four hundred Albertans will die by suicide each year,” according to the University of Alberta’s suicide awareness and prevention page.
Vision Credit Union Announces Community Grant Recipients NICK ALLEN Pass Herald Reporter Three Pincher Creek community groups are looking forward to a cash infusion totalling almost $22,000, after being selected as recipients of Vision Credit Union Helping Hand Grants. The announcement was made this week following the credit union’s annual general meeting. The Pincher Creek recipients included the Beaver Mines Fire Brigade, Pincher Creek and District Community Food Centre and the Southwest Alberta Re-
The session is open to any adult in the community who is interested in learning more about mental health and intervention strategies to help someone at risk of suicide. They admit that suicide is a heavy topic but also a “real one.” “It can happen to anyone you know whether it be a friend, family member, loved one, or someone who you just passed on the Street. Having the knowledge and awareness of what the signs are and exactly how to approach the situation, whether it be crisis mode or to just bring up the topic is a good starting point,” said Rinaldi. There is a $25 charge to register but they are willing to waive this fee if finances are a barrier for those wishing to attend. The course typically costs between $200 and $350. This session will be heavily subsidized by Darcy’s Nature Walk and Municipality of Crowsnest Pass, but they are opening it up to anyone willing to join in the surrounding area. “We really want to fill the seats. The more people that we can have educated in the community, the better it is,” said Rinaldi. The workshop can have up to 30 participants and, after speaking with Rinaldi, there were only five. For anyone interested in attending this course you can email Kim Lewis to register at Kim.lewis@crowsnestpass.com. For full info on this workshop, visit www.suicideinfo.ca.
gional Search and Rescue Society (SARSAR). These recipients were among the 33 groups selected from over 100 applications representing organizations across Alberta. “We were pleased by the interest in this program and impressed by the amazing work being done to further quality of life in our rural Alberta communities,” said Steve Friend, CEO of Vision Credit Union. “We’re honoured to play a part in supporting these efforts.” The Helping Hand Grants program offers up to $10,000 in funding to qualifying organizations for capital projects that benefit communities and the people who live there. Through these grants, Vision Credit Union provides more than $180,000 per year on an ongoing basis to qualifying organizations in Vision Credit Union’s 23 branch communities. Grant applications were evaluated based on the project’s benefit to people and the community. A special grant committee comprised of Vision Credit Union’s CEO and Board adjudicated the applications.

Herald Editorial LISA SYGUTEK
To say that last week’s editorial touched a nerve for some and resonated with others is an understatement. Sometimes I forget that newspapers really are a very effective medium to get out a relevant message that is read by many. I think perhaps it’s been the decimation of our industry by social media that I forget. Then, occasionally, I write something, and it goes viral. A little weekly newspaper in the southern part of Alberta says something and it hit a wider audience in this province. Since I wrote my editorial, it has been picked up by Facebook and read by over 3000 people on our website. There were just under 3000 views views on various Twitter accounts and if you add in our paid subscriptions you are looking at close to 8000 people. I also had countless people walk into the office on Thursday asking me what our options are. They have researched the ‘Take Back Alberta’ faction, and many were not in favour of the group. I had phone calls from retired provincial politicians that told me that they were proud I used my voice. I received phone calls from the members of Livingstone-Macleod Constituency, and I’ve had Global News ask to interview me. What I explained to every one of them is that this section of the paper, the editorial page, is where I give the reader ‘my’ opinion. This section is where I share exactly what I think about my community, my life, our government, or whatever else piques my interest. I reaffirmed to everyone that the rest of the paper is Switzerland. Anyone can write a Letter to the Editor, even if it to oppose my views. I will always print them, unless they are liable (I was sued last year). What I hope from some of my editorials is that they spark conversation. They make you question what you think you know, what you do know, and challenge you to research what you don’t know. The rest of the paper, less this little 250 wordspace, is supposed to present the facts. It is then up to you, the reader, to make an interpretation. I truly try to hold that line. I often do not agree with a brick in the paper or a Letter to the Editor, but I will print it despite that. My skin is thick; you don’t work in this industry without developing a thick skin. I’ve always said that if I’m willing to write about it, I better be able to take the criticism for it. So, it’s St. Patrick’s Day as I write this (my mother’s birthday) and I’m remembering all the things that woman taught me. She taught me to be fierce. She taught me to take care of those less fortunate than me. She taught me to have a voice and to use that voice and she taught me to never back down. That’s the thing about me, I won’t be bullied by any group that wants to silence me. I feel Canadians in general don’t particularly like to make waves, even when we feel that something is fundamentally wrong. So, I encourage you to do your research on topics you are unfamiliar with. I encourage you to question the things you don’t feel are right, and I encourage you to say something. I say something all the time. Does it make me popular? Lots of times it doesn’t. However it does allow me to get up every single morning and look at myself in the mirror and be comfortable with who I am. I always find it funny that people say to me, “well Lisa, people either like you or they don’t, and does that bother you?” I always reply, “nope”. I have a handful of friends that I’d walk through fire for and that is good enough for me. Life isn’t always a popularity contest trying to have everyone like you. To me life is about doing as you say. Having people know they can turn to you for help or guidance and knowing that you will do what you say. I like who I am, and I ask you, do you!

What does “Take Back Alberta” want to take back? PATRICK LANNON - RETIRED LAWYER Dear Editor; There is an undercurrent in the current political scene identified as “Take Back Alberta” (TBA). David Parker, son of a preacher from Central Alberta founded the movement in 2022 with his own seed money. His involvement in politics started in his early teens. He was an advisor to former Prime Minister Stephen Harper, short-lived Conservative leader Erin O’Toole as well as interim leader Rona Ambrose. Mr. Parker is the Executive Director of Take Back Alberta (TBA) an organization that was integral in removing Jason Kenney from office and helping elect “freedom supporter” Premier Danielle Smith as leader of the UCP and ultimately Alberta’s Premier. A search of the TBA web site does not provide any mention of a board of directors or executive membership committee. TBA purports to be a grassroots movement built to advance freedom and transfer power from the ruling elite to the people of our province. But this appears to be an oxymoronic statement. TBA, at least its Executive Director, Mr. David Parker, appears to be a member of the ruling elite but without an elected office. It
appears that the TBA wants to influence or insert itself into the foundation of the UCP, which by definition is an elite group. In addition TBA is financially supported by Lululemon founder and billionaire Chip Wilson. So much for grass roots. TBA smacks of Populism. Populism being a political approach that strives to appeal to ordinary people; folks who feel their concerns are disregarded by established government. The method to gain support of the people is to identify the government as elitist. Simply put if TBA does not agree with certain laws or directives and asserts that this is not representing the people (electorate) TBA uses that to stir discontent. Traditionally, a method to raise support is to seize on an issue; in this case, the vaccination mandates which morphed into a Freedom Fighter movement. The TBA organization is rallying the electorate by making the argument that the Covid 19 mandates were restricting freedom. All restrictions have been lifted. The TBA has completed its announced mandate. Why does TBA still exist? TBA is trying to change the leadership and the culture of all elected officials by influencing and supporting provincial candidates as well as candidates in municipal and school elections. This potentially opens the door for pushing forward the Take Back Alberta movement and influencing the UCP agenda. TBA backed the election of one-half of the UCP board this past fall and are intent on taking over the UCP board as well as various local constituency associations. Would ultimate control of these boards and associations then make them elitists? The mission of the movement seems certain to cause chaos if it gains ground. What is their end game? Time will tell.

Letter to the Editor Blairmore Creek water discolouration DAVID MCINTYRE Dear Editor; The attached image was taken Thursday morning, March 16 as I walked along the Crowsnest Pass Community Trail overlooking the Crowsnest River near Integra Tire Auto Centre. The pictured view looks north at the confluence of
Blairmore Creek (rusty in colour) and the Crowsnest River (snow-covered and white in the foreground) at a time when I could see rusty-looking Blairmore Creek water entering the Crowsnest River. Following the discoloured water upstream, I, look-
Casting call comes to the Pass
so producers are seeking extras for multiple scenes and are encouraging people from all demographics, ages 16 to 90 to apply for various main and extra roles in these productions. The first casting call will be for a “cutting edge” new series revolving around the world of sports entertainment. This “modern, coming-of-age series” will apparently pay homage to the world of sports entertainment with a “quirky” cast of characters. The second will be for a movie based on the series and is going to be shot at exactly the same time the series is being filmed. There will be a lot of opportunities, not only for people, but businesses as well if they want to be featured in the background. According to the production team, the communities stand to benefit economically from the impact of filming in their respected communities.
KMUK PRODUCTIONS Press Release A Southern Alberta production company is currently looking for main actors, and background actors to feature in two upcoming productions. They are set to be shot entirely in Pincher Creek and the surrounding communities which covers a lot of territory. Southwestern Alberta provides a unique and very vibrant and energetic backdrop for filming these productions,
ing for the source of the problem, walked north on Blairmore Creek for an estimated 500 meters, and was able to observe, at that upstream point, that the free-flowing creek, below a covering of ice, was also similarly discoloured, thus mirroring the downstream discolouration. Where is the issue-defining source of the discolouration? Local conjecture suggests the discoloured water originates from the portal of the old Boisjoli Mine— pronounced “Boze-Lee” by most Crowsnest Pass miners—on the southern flanks of Grassy Mountain, but does it, and if it does, what is the cause, and is there a health concern? I’m hopeful the source of the discoloured water and a rock-solid analysis of the Blairmore Creek’s water can be made available to the public in order alleviate concern, or definitively identify and serve to correct the problem. Photo by David McIntyre They claim vendors will gain new opportunities from the exposure and will also gain new opportunities for growth of their businesses, providing a lasting economic impact in the local community. To apply, the casting company requests that you email them directly with the requested information: Name, height, age and phone number, if you’re a business, a photo of your business, availability over the next few months and a current unedited photo of yourself. KMUK Productions said no experience is needed to be an extra and those interested must apply online at kmukproductions@gmail.com. Due to privacy and security of the filming, only those who are booked will get the location information.

Nick’s Notes Shingles

403-563-0771 Royal LePage South Country Real Estate Services Ltd.
BLAIRMORE
HILLCREST
No, not the shingles on your roof, but the debilitating illness that stems from a bout of chickenpox. I first got shingles in the summer of 2020. It was a brutal experience, with the doctors only medicating for the pain. The kicker is, had I gone into the emergency room within the first 72 hours, I could have been saved those two weeks of agony by simply getting the vaccine. It was kind of ironic that my first time isolating because of illness was from shingles during a global pandemic. I don’t blame myself for not recognizing the signs sooner as I had no experience apart from the commercials on TV telling people over 50 to get vaccinated for Shingles. I had no idea it could happen to me at the age of 22, but working on service rigs was the catalyst it needed. So, I wanted to use my experience with the virus to help others who may one day find themselves faced with the very same complications I did. Firstly, you cannot contract shingles if you have never had chickenpox. It is the same virus, called varicella zoster, lying dormant in your brain stem until periods of increased stress and/or a weakened immune system. Second, it will only appear on one side of your body as a rash. Note that this rash is responsible for spreading chickenpox and why I had to isolate myself. This rash can appear on the face and that is when serious complications can occur. Luckily I had it on my ribs, though it may have led to the late diagnosis as, at the time, we thought it was a chemical burn. Now I have one of the common problems that can arise after a battle with the virus and its called postherpetic neuralgia. The pain has lasted long after the rash and blisters of shingles went away. The risk of postherpetic neuralgia rises with age and mainly effects people over 60. There’s no cure, but treatments can help ease the symptoms. For most people, postherpetic neuralgia gets better over time. I’m still hoping that happens. It can be a struggle, especially with the sudden temperature changes affecting my hip and hand quite severely some days. Most of all, I look forward to the warm weather and being able to stay outside more. I hope this was informative for some, and I really hope anyone unlucky enough to contract it like I did is able to spot the rash and recognize it before it is too late to treat.

Trans Mountain Corporation provides update Expansion project to be completed this year, operational in early 2024 GLOBE NEWSWIRE Press Release On March 10, Trans Mountain Corporation announced an update for the Trans Mountain Expansion Project (the Project). Construction of the Project is close to 80 percent complete, with mechanical completion expected to occur at the end of 2023, and the pipeline will be in-service in the first quarter of 2024. Once completed, the pipeline system will have nearly tripled its capacity, representing an increase of 590,000 barrels per day to a total of 890,000 barrels per day. The expanded pipeline will be a key piece of Canada’s energy infrastructure that provides a much-needed route to west coast tidewater for direct access to international markets, including the United States and Asia. Such access will achieve global market pricing for Canadian crude oil, which is periodically sold at a discount, while supporting Canada’s energy security. The total Project cost is now estimated to be approximately $30.9 billion. Trans Mountain is in the process of securing external financing to fund the re-
maining cost of the Project. The Project capacity is primarily committed to 11 shippers representing a mix of Canadian and international producers and refiners who are contracted for 80 per cent of the available capacity under long-term, take-or-pay transportation contracts for 15 and 20 years. The remaining 20 per cent of the capacity on the expanded system will be available through market mechanisms. Estimated costs are attributed to several factors including Trans Mountain’s commitment to ensuring Project and community safety, protection of culturally significant sites for Indigenous Peoples, environmental preservation, and completing a quality long-term pipeline. Specific factors for cost increases include high global inflation and global supply chain challenges; unprecedented floods in British Columbia; unexpected major archaeological discoveries; challenging terrain between Merritt and Hope; earthquake standards in the Burnaby Mountain tunnel; unexpected water disposal costs in the Sumas Prairie; and issues regarding densely populated areas between Sumas and Burnaby. “Canada has among the world’s highest standards for the protection of people, the environment, and Indigenous participation when building major infrastructure projects. By including these commitments into the Project design and development from the beginning, we have ensured the Project will provide economic benefits to Canadians well into the future,” said Dawn Farrell, President and CEO of Trans Mountain Corporation. An independent economic impact assessment for the Project was conducted by Ernst & Young LLP (EY) in March 2023. The assessment stated that during construction between 2018-2023, the Project is estimated to contribute $52.8 billion in gross output, $26.3 billion in gross domestic product (GDP), including $11 billion in wages and more than 67,423 full-time equivalents (FTEs), and $2.9 billion in tax revenue. After completion, EY expects that Trans Mountain’s
23034ra0
expanded operations will contribute $17.3 billion in gross output, $9.2 billion in GDP, including $3.7 billion in wages and more than 36,066 FTEs, and $2.8 billion in tax revenue over the next 20 years. Trans Mountain has generated more than $4.8 billion in contracts with Indigenous businesses, which is 25 per cent of total contracts awarded to date and has employed over 3,000 Indigenous workers. “I am particularly proud that throughout development and construction, Trans Mountain has maintained unprecedented levels of Indigenous collaboration and partnership. Over 140 Indigenous groups have been engaged to ensure we protect the land, the water, the wildlife, and significant archaeological sites. Trans Mountain has gone far beyond simple engagement by creating economic partners for generations to come,” continued Farrell. Project Construction Background: The Project consists of installing approximately 992 kilometres of 36-inch and 42-inch diameter pipe, reactivating 193 kilometres of pipe, and constructing 12 new pump stations, 19 new storage tanks at existing terminals in Burnaby, Sumas, and Edmonton, and three new berths at Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby, B.C. Once completed, the capacity of the pipeline system will increase by 590,000 barrels per day to a total of 890,000 barrels per day. Trans Mountain plans to deliver oil to its Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby during the first quarter of 2024. The Alberta portion of the Project is complete. All pump stations across both provinces are complete. Berth 1 at the Westridge Marine Terminal is scheduled to be commissioned in May 2023. The revised cost estimate is a result of several factors: Increased global inflationary pressures and global supply chain challenges over the period. Cost escalations associated with required construction solutions for the Burnaby Mountain Tunnel. Significant cost increases associated with building major infrastructure in densely populated areas from Sumas to Burnaby. Cultural preservation activities following significant archaeological discoveries through sacred spaces in the Lower Mainland resulted in over 83,000 artifacts rightfully being returned to Indigenous communities for cultural protection. The expanded Project scope and construction schedule adjustments ultimately required as a result of the catastrophic flooding in B.C. were extensive and included redeployment of resources into urgent civil recovery operations. Challenging terrain and geography from Merritt to Hope that required significant geotechnical engineering and innovation in construction practices to ensure Project completion in 2023. Significantly increased water disposal costs associated with the high-water table in the Sumas Prairie. Lower than expected contractor productivity resulting from: Demanding geography and challenging weather conditions. Unavoidable external factors such as wildfires and catastrophic floods in B.C., high water tables, and additional archaeological finds. Labour shortages and an increase in “green-hand” labourers as markets tightened for skilled workers. As with all projects of this size, risks to the final costs and schedule will remain as work is completed through 2023. The current cost estimate does not include reserves for extraordinary risks that can impact projects of this nature. Trans Mountain Corporation (TMC) operates Canada’s only pipeline system transporting oil products to the West Coast. TMC delivers approximately 300,000 barrels of petroleum products each day through 1,150 kilometres of pipeline in Alberta and British Columbia, and 111 kilometres of pipeline in Washington state. In 2023, Trans Mountain will celebrate a significant milestone of 70 years delivering operational and safety excellence through its pipeline system.

Glenn was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He was a kind, generous, and loving husband, father, and grandfather. Whenever Glenn’s grandson Daxyn was visiting Glenn’s smile would light up the whole room. He believed in family and organized 2 family reunions. Both were well attended. Glenn was able to repair or fix anything and would spend time in his shop with his sons. Glenn enjoyed life and brightened the days of those around him. He will be missed by all his friends and family. In lieu of flowers please donate to Children’s Cancer. https://cancer.ca/en/ ways-to-give/monthly-donation/support-the-childhood-cancer-cause.

Martin was born in the Crowsnest Pass, AB and called it home for the full length of his life. Born on May 25,1964 to Sharon and Thomas Janiga, Martin began his life living in their family home in River Bottom where he enjoyed riding his bike and joined the local Junior Forest Wardens and the Royal Canadian Air Cadets; a passion he would pass along to all three of his children. His mechanical nature began through the fun he had as a member of the high school rocketry club, and flourished as he got many vehicles of his own. Martin was a hard worker and was always busy doing something. His first jobs were working for the town through his summer holidays and pumping gas in Coleman at the Little Chief Texaco. After he graduated from Crowsnest Consolidated High School, he dedicated 23 years to driving loader and lumber prep at Natal Forest Products. When the plant closed, Martin didn’t miss a beat driving equipment and moved his employment to Teck starting at Coal Mountain and then concluding his career at Line Creek Operations. He even took a temporary position at 7-Eleven, Atlas and the occasional garbage truck run while he experienced strikes at the mine. When he was not working, he loved to spend his time camping, working on vehicles, and treasure hunting for second hand bargains. He enjoyed relaxing in his armchair with both his dogs on either side, indulging in pastries and sweets, and finding the newest gadgets he could tinker with. As his children grew, he dedicated many years to volunteering as a leader for the local Boy Scouts of Canada and for the Pass Piranhas Swim Club as the club’s equipment manager, a timer and race starter at weekend swim meets. His care for family was also displayed with his weekly visits to his mom and dad and in helping them regularly with anything they needed. Whether it was long conversations in the grocery store, having coffee, or sharing a meal at Chris’ Restaurant, Martin loved to socialize and found regular comfort and laughter amongst friends.

He will be forever remembered by his wife, Angela; his children, Alisha (Shaun) Reil, Sheldon (Danielle) Janiga and Ryan (Betty) Knight; his grandchildren, Jake, Autumn, Kai, Alexis, Miley, Avery, and Jameson; his parents, Sharon and Thomas Janiga; his siblings, Joni (Clarence) Bohmer, Judy Emslie, Dianne (Darcy) Sorochan; and his puppies, Cosmo and Haley. A Visitation was held at 2:00pm on Monday, March, 20, 2023 at Fantin’s Funeral Chapel (13461 – 20 Ave., Blairmore, AB). A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00pm on Friday, March 24, 2023 at the Bellevue Legion (2401 – 213 St., Bellevue, AB).

Condolences may be registered at www.fantinsfuneralchapel. ca. Special thanks to the staff at the Crowsnest Pass Health Care Centre, notably Kara and Jackie for going above and beyond, to everyone at the Tom Baker Cancer Centre, and to Dr. Johann Maritz for their attentiveness and care through Martin’s journey.
