Collision claims life of man near Lamont

This scene, about 500 metres east of the intersection of Secondary Highway 831 and Highway 15 by Lamont, was the site of a fatal collision which claimed the life of a 25-year-old Edmonton man early Saturday mornMichelle Pinon Editor

When Miles Mackow arrived at work early Saturday morning he didn’t expect to be greeted by the horrific sight of a fatal collision between a car and a combine.

Mackow, general manager of Webb’s Machinery in Lamont, pulled into the parking lot around 7:15 a.m. to discover police, and emergency services personnel on the premises.

Mackow was very concerned and wondered if

anyone had been hurt in the accident. That’s when he learned the driver of the vehicle had passed away.

According to Fort Saskatchewan RCMP, “The initial investigation reveals a vehicle was traveling westbound on Highway 15 when it went off the edge of the north shoulder, then veered back onto the highway, crossed the eastbound lane of traffic, entered the south ditch, rolled a number of times, and then collided with a stationary combine.”

The report went onto state: “The driver and lone occupant was ejected from the vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene. The driver was a 25-year-old male from Edmonton, his name is not being released pend-

ing notification of family members.”

The cause of the collision is still under investigation. Police have not rule out speed, alcohol, drug or fatigue.

Fort Saskatchewan RCMP are looking for any witnesses to this collision and are asking them to contact the detachment.

It was around 5:20 a.m. when RCMP, members of the Lamont Fire Department and Prairie EMS responded to a complaint of a single vehicle collision on Highway 15, approximately 500 metres east of Secondary Highway 831.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at: 780-992-6100.

Lamont County grappling with outstanding taxes More than $789,000 currently owing to municipality; council willing to adopt collections policy Michelle Pinon Editor

Lamont County council is expected to discuss the issue of outstanding taxes during its upcoming June 11 meeting.

In fact, council has been grappling with the issue since January when members requested administration to provide information outlining the outstanding taxes and determine assessment categories as of Dec. 31, 2012, and to provide a report on other communities’ methods of dealing with outstanding taxes.

A summary of outstanding taxes by classification was provided to council. The summary

was as follows: residential, $165,917.69; farm, $161,811.25; industrial, $336,070.81; commercial, $36,812.68; and linear, $161,068.10.

Debbie Hackman, director of corporate services, also supplied council with information as to what other municipalities do in regards to outstanding taxes.

For example, Sturgeon County has utilized a collections agency with a high success rate. Smoky Lake County has also utilized a collections company for outstanding accounts receivable.

For machinery and equipment, several reminder notices are sent out and warnings are provided that a judgement may be sought to

Since that report was presented, coun. Dennis McCartney has requested administration follow up with Municipal Affairs and its legal advisors in reference to collection of outstanding taxes for linear property.

Hackman provided a brief summary which included authorizing seizure and related challenges as well as legal opinion from Brownlee.

In a letter issued by the company on April 5, it stated that Lamont County may recover taxes and tax arrears owing to the county with respect to linear property.

“We understand that currently the county has at least eight files in which a corporation is in

seize the property.

Beaver County performs customary phone call and sends out reminder letters. So does Minburn County, which applies a 12 per cent penalty rate on outstanding accounts. “They also have their solicitor draft and send out registered letters requesting payment or will proceed with legal action. They have met with success in collecting taxes, utilizing this method with the exception of one for which they have seized equipment and are proceeding to sell,” added Hackman.

Similar methods were also used by Yellowhead County and Westlock County with varied success.

arrears for taxes related to linear property in the county and that the county wishes to take action to collect against these corporations.”

The letter went onto state: “One of the key differences between the recovery of taxes in respect of linear property from the recovery of taxes in respect of land is that with respect to land, a municipality seizes and sells the property to which the tax relates, the land. In the recovery of taxes not relating to lands, such as linear property, a municipality seizes and sells any goods belonging to the person or corporation in arrears.”

Coun.

McCartney made a motion to direct

administraiton to develop a policy regarding outstanding taxation and accounts receivable to include a process of using a notice followed by a letter from a lawyer, the possible use of an agreement and the use of distress warrants or collections.

The motion was passed unanimously, and McCartney was expecting that policy to be prepared for council’s May 2nd meeting.

The policy was not ready for review at the meeting, and McCartney requested Hackman to have it ready for the next meeting as he is anxious for the municipality to “get moving” on the issue and appropriate action underway.

On May 22, 2013 at approximately 3:34 p.m. police responded to a call of a pedestrian being hit by a vehicle at the intersection of 51 Ave and 49 St in Lamont.

According to Cst. Ston of the Fort Saskatchewan RCMP Detachment, an investigation revealed that an 11-year-old boy was struck by a pick up truck.

The boy crossed the street at the intersection and the driver of the truck never had time to stop before hitting the boy on his bike.

The driver of the truck was traveling at a safe speed, and as a result, no charges are being laid.

Police would like to remind bikers to walk their bikes across the streets as this gives driver’s time to stop.

Two Lamont County residents nominated for minister’s seniors service awards Michelle Pinon Editor

Two Lamont County volunteers have been nominated for the 2013 Minister’s Seniors Service Awards.

Virginia Differenz from the Bruderheim area and Neil Lesoway from the Mundare area are two of 89 individuals and organizations who have been nominated for their outstanding work in their communities.

“These annual awards celebrate the dedication and commitment of Albertans who volunteer their time and energy in support of seniors,” said Fred Horne, Minister of Health. “Their efforts have a great impact on our communities and our province; and they make a difference in the lives of seniors.”

Nominees are evaluated based on their impact on seniors and the community, the need for the service they provide, and the measure of diversity, quality and originality in their service. Out of the group of outstanding nominees, five individuals and three organizations will be selected recipients and will be honoured during a special celebration on June 5 in Edmonton during Seniors Week.

Differenz has been with the seniors centre in Bruderheim for the better part of 15 years, and Lesoway has been a member with the Mundare Fire Department for 24 years. During the winter Lesoway drives seniors to various floor curling tournaments throughout the region. Differenz is a dedicated leader who is committed to the welfare of seniors and the social centre in her community.

The Bruderheim Seniors Social Centre has been at its present location for more than 20 years. “Like any building you own, it constantly needs upkeep,” stat-

ed Differenz, who is the driving force behind the people and facility it represents. “I have heard there is no “I” in team, but as everyone knows, each team needs a captain to keep it on track. That is the role I see of myself. Without the team we would not operate as efficiently as we do. It definitely is a team effort. I wish to thank the government for sponsoring these awards and my community for nominating me,” added Differenz.

Neil Lesoway is the kind of guy who is always available to help everyone. Those are the words of his nominee, Glenda Dales, chief of the Mundare Fire Department. “It doesn’t matter what it is or where it is or even what time it is Neil is always willing to help.

He volunteers with the fire department and is always available for calls as well as fundraising events.”

Lesoway is willing to pick up and drop off seniors at the centre when they can’t make it there on their own, added Dales. “Neil cuts neighbours’ grass and shovels snow.

When the ladies are making perogies, etc at the seniors centre if

they run out of something, Neil runs to the grocery store for them. Neil is our pancake man for the Agri Daze and he keeps the batter flowing and mixed to perfection. If you want to tighten something so that it will never come loose, go see Neil, guaranteed it will never come loose.”

Dales said Lesoway is very deserving of the nomination because he is always helping someone and rarely ever asks for help himself. “Neil is a very special person, and all that work with him are proud to call him our friend.”

Close call My heart started to beat faster when a colleague of mine asked: Did you hear about that little boy who was hit in the crosswalk?

Instantly, feelings of shock and dismay washed over me. Who? What? Where? When? Why? How? In a blink of an eye life can take a sudden and unexpected turn, and I couldn’t imagine being the parents of that child hearing the news for the first time.

Yet I know it can happen to anyone at anytime, whether they are walking or biking across the street.

It’s so easy to write off a close call or incident because the pedestrian may not have been paying attention, but that won’t alter the consequences.

What may hold the key to prevention is education.

There certainly is no down side to it, and I was glad when I got the call to take pictures at a bike safety course this past weekend in Bruderheim. To know that concerned parents and volunteers felt strongly enough about bike safety to donate their time was a very encouraging sign indeed. I just hope more people and places can do the same in the future.

Concrete action needed in order to prove environmental stewardship in Alberta’s oilsands Earlier this month, Albertans and Canadians witnessed what some consider an unprecedented degree of public relations and lobbying from the federal government in effort to drum up support for the Keystone XL pipeline, as Prime Minister Stephen Harper traveled to New York City on a junket to sell Americans on Alberta’s oilsands.

Meantime, Ottawa launched a new feelgood advertising campaign profiling Canada’s stewardship on climate and environmental matters and encouraging energy customers outside our borders to “Go with Canada.”

The tactics aren’t new here in Alberta we’ve

seen a similar increase in efforts over the past year from our own premier, with the placement of paid opinion pieces and ads in U.S. newspapers and regular lobbying tours to Washington.

Rather than allaying concerns about Alberta and Canada’s environmental performance, however, such high-profile public relations and lobbying campaigns have some asking for the evidence that would back up claims of leadership and progress in reducing the negative impacts of energy development.

That’s where the Pembina Institute’s analysis comes in: two years ago, we released a road map toward

responsible oilsands development that identified 19 key areas where environmental rules and management practices need to be strengthened, and earlier this month we released a status report showing progress that has been made, and areas where challenges remain.

Many of the recommendations in the report, Solving the Puzzle: Environmental responsibility in oilsands development, mirror existing Government of Alberta commitments to improve on oilsands management, so we were encouraged last year when Premier Redford promised to deliver world-class natural resource manage-

ment.

However, our 2013 progress update showed that much work remains to live up to that promise and deliver the leadership Albertans expect.

A recent poll by Leger Marketing, for instance, shows just four in 10 Albertans are satisfied with how the government is handling environmental issues. This indicates that taking a tougher line on environmental standards for oilsands producers would also be popular here at home.

As the debate over market access for oilsands products continues to play out, our provincial and federal leaders would be wise to invest more energy in

Michelle Pinon Editor

these key opportunities for environmental improvements, such as putting strict limits on industrial water use, strengthening carbon dioxide pollution controls, and putting a limit on how much disturbance can occur in the small patch of intact woodland caribou habitat that remains.

After all, the best way to sell our customers on the image of Alberta as an environmental steward is to truthfully acknowledge the challenges we face, and demonstrate our intentions to improve by making tangible progress.

And while Pembina’s analysis shows there’s a lot of ground to cover on the way to responsible

oilsands development, our road map also points industry and governments in the right direction, and outlines the steps that can get us there.

We’ve seen progress on biodiversity monitoring and the establishment of new conservation areas for wildlife, but the facts show that much more must be done in order to substantiate any public relations efforts.

Securing the social license to operate and market access for the oilsands industry depends on it.

Prairie grain elevators shining piece of our past and passion for one Alberta man Michelle Pinon Editor

Fascination with grain elevators has evolved into a passion for one Alberta man who has spent the better part of his adult life documenting the history of these vanishing sentinels.

In fact, Jim Pearson was more than willing to gather some information from his archives on the Mundare Elevator that was recently demolished. The Alberta Wheat Pool No. 2 started operating in 1984 and changed ownership in 1998 to Agricore and was closed in 2001.

In fact there were several different grain companies that owned elevators in the community since 1914, including: Alberta Grain Co. Alberta Pacific Grain Co. Federal Grain Ltd. British America Elevator Co. National Grain Co. Cargill Grain Co. Fraser Grain Co. Home Grain Co. Searle Grain Co. Alberta Pool Elevators, United Grain Growers and the N. Bawlf Grain Co. Ltd. Pearson has written two books on grain elevators in recent years, and likes to go beyond the statistics and behind the facade of the iconic landmarks.

Growing up on a farm in east central Alberta, Pearson has his own memories and perspective on the sentinels. “We’d truck our harvested grain into our local Alberta Wheat Pool in Delia (about 30 minutes northeast of Drumheller on Highway 9 or eight miles from the farm), and send it off to market.�

Pearson went onto say he was far more interested in the building, its design and how it worked, more than shipping the grain. “So while Dad and the local agent were unloading the truck, I’d be wandering around, looking at the building and marvelling at all the machinery and stuff that was in it.�

A lot of pieces of history have been lost, but Ryan Steblyk a craftsman and artisan, is trying to preserve some of those pieces by reclaiming them and transforming them into frames, end tables, etc. “It’s nice to hold onto the past and pay tribute to those pioneers who settled the area.� Besides helping with greening efforts he is creating beautiful and useful ways of reimaging weathered boards whether it be from an elevator or barn, and fashioning them into practical pieces of art.

Preserving iconic grain elevators a passion for one Alberta author and resident Continued from Page 5 While many people seem to think of a grain elevator as an old decrepit building that serves no purpose and must be demolished, Pearson sees the grain elevator as a shining piece of the past that must be preserved for future generations so they can learn that the fathers, uncles, grand and great grandparents used these buildings not only to help build the western Canadian agricultural industry, but also helped put food on everyone’s table! He goes onto state: “Without these buildings, the Canadian agricultural industry and heritage may have never come into fruition.”

As to what they truly represent, Pearson says: “For myself, they represent an age that is sadly coming to an end. With the larger concrete terminals at so called strategic points (usually 50 to 100 miles from where I

grew up) and the abandonment of many rail lines in Alberta, the era of the wooden elevator is coming to a close.

“For today, the remaining elevators remind you of a time where these use to be the highest building in a community, with the exception of a water tower.

Pilots and travellers on the roads and highway could easily spot a community by looking for the elevators, while pilots could tell where there were by looking for the name of the town on the side of the structure.

“They were an important tax base for the town, and sometimes were the first building built, sometimes after the post office and the rail station. Sometimes they were the only place in the community that had a telephone or telegraph to keep in contact with the distant outside world.”

Pearson’s father used to fashion clocks out of the wood. On grain elevator wood, my Dad used to get wood from the chutes in one of two of Delia’s eleva-

tors when they were changing them because of wear and tear.

Also, a craftsman at heart, Pearson has fashioned around 200 grain elevators from across Western Canada from cardstock. “It was suggested by a friend from Heritage Canada in 2007, and I haven’t stopped making them since.”

This summer is going to be a busy one for Pearson who plans on travelling throughout eastern Saskatchewan as well as the northeast region from Birch Hills to Choicland and Hudson Bay to the east central region from Assiniboia to Fairlight and visit the few remaining elevators north of Regina.

He is also hoping to do a layout of the Esterhazy Flour Mill, which is one of the last standing wooden flour mills left in all of Western Canada.

Pearson has his own website titled: vanishing sentinels and has books available for purchase.

Revised dust control policy passed by county council Michelle Pinon Editor

The value and expenses associated with dust abatement were debated by members of Lamont County council recently.

While dust abatement has been offered in previous years, councillors had to consider its options in relation to products, cost and durability of applications, as well as expectations regarding service levels to members of the public.

For the past couple of months public works director Harold Hamilton and roads maintenance supervisor Gerald Thorowsky have been wrestling with different suppliers and the types of products they offer as well as pricing.

For example with the MC250 product, the applicaiton will only last one year, and the cost of the application for a 400

the program.

“I know we’re looking at providing a service, but it’s becoming a burden on some of our other services,” added Woldanski.

Chief administrative officer Al Harvey also advised councillors to think about resources and if it is economically feasible to continue to offer and perform the service versus allowing private industry to perform the service.

In the end council did revise the residential dust abatement policy to include MC 250 option at a cost of $2,500 and Tiger Inhibited 35 option at a cost of $1,050.

Ratepayers must acknowledge and agree that the application of dust abatement product is intended to last for the current calendar year.

To date, public works has received four applications for residential dust abatement.

metre strip is $6,000. The county has only been charging $2,500 per application, pointed out Hamilton. The actual cost of the oil alone is $2,400.

Reeve Wayne Woldanski also pointed out the expectations in regards to oil control is that it will be hard forever. But if we don’t have the base, it will break up.”

While calcium is another option, the roads have to be dry during application. It is a bladeable product, but during dry years, reapplication is required. It costs $525 per application.

Coun. Dan Warawa said whatever the program, it has to be fair to all ratepayers.

Council also had to take into consideration whether dust abatement is a core or elective service and how much money the municipality should be investing into

Smash ’N Bash event to debut in Bruderheim Ag. society behind new initiative to bolster volunteerism and community spirit Michelle Pinon Editor

The man behind the make up, Zak Yo-Yo aka Cody Schoepp is the face behind a new event this summer in Bruderheim.

While he prefers to work behind the scenes and pass on the credit for the first annual Smash & Bash to his fellow volunteers Schoepp does sheepishly admit it was his idea to host the event which will take place at the agricultural grounds from July 19 to 21.

“The main reason I brought up the idea was to get more people in the community involved,” says Schoepp, who is grateful for his fellow volunteers with the Bruderheim and District Agricultural Society for supporting the plan.

One of the mandates of the ag. society is to offer community based events, and Schoepp is so grateful the board approved the idea. He points out that the Town of Bruderheim has also been very supportive of the new initiative.

Schoepp does admit things have started to snowball, but he, along with other ag. society members who are organizing the event, are getting a great response from fellow volunteers, community members, and businesses alike.

He hopes the Smash & Bash will attract more youth of the community to come out and get involved. “It’s very exciting,” adds Schoepp, who will have to hold onto his hat it he wants to keep up with all the action

that will be taking place over the next month and a half.

Schoepp is also looking forward to the ag. society’s Heartland Ag. Days in late August.

That three day event will feature the racing finals of the Alberta Chariot & Chuckwagon Association. There will be a memorial parade in honour of the late Fred Olsen as well as several horse riding competitions.

Mutton Bustin’, a petting zoo, train rides and bouncy houses will all be part of the fun.

Randy Siemens, emergency fire services coordinator for Lamont County, said Bruderheim members were put to work immediately on the afternoon of May 21, while members from Andrew and Chipman were held in the staging area and returned home a couple hours later when the fire was downgraded from out of control to able to control in house.

“Strathcona chief (Darrell Reid) extended a heart felt thank you to Lamont County, Sturgeon County and

Fort Saskatchewan for their quick response,” added Siemens.

At 1:16 p.m. on May 21, Strathcona County Emergency Services received a 911 call of a fire in the vicinity of Township Road 564 and Range Road 213A. What initially covered approximately 50 acres, ballooned to around 640 acres in a few short days.

Gusty winds and extremely dry conditions made the fire difficult to control, but was well managed, and by late Friday was continuing to be held by firefighters.

Fortunately, cooler weather and rain on Saturday put an end to the fire. Only one family had to evacuate during the fire. No residences or structures were burned due to the fact the fire was contained in an isolated area of the northeast region of Strathcona

Travelling north towards the MEG Energy’s Stonfell Terminal, the smoke was thicker, and barricades were being set up by staff from Strathcona County around 4 p.m. Wednesday afternoon. The fire continued to burn and be held throughout the week.

Official launch of Alberta biochar initiative garners international interest

MICHELLE PINON PHOTOS

A new state-of-the-art biochar initiaitve was the centre of attention Wednesday at the Alberta Innovates Technolgy Futures (AITF) headquarters in Vegreville during its official launch and ribbon cutting ceremony. Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville MLA Jacquie Fenske, centre, and Vegreville Mayor Richard Coleman had the honour of cutting the ribbon in front of the crowd of about 100 people. Photographed from left to right are: Vivian Wilson from Western Economic Diversification Canada, Stan Blade from AITF, Richard Wayken, Fenske, Coleman, Melvin Mathison from Lakeland College and Anthony Anyia from AITF.

Anthony Anyia couldn't help but point out how surprised he was to see that many people come to Vegreville, and in particular come to attend the official launch of the Alberta Biochar Initiative on May 23.

Around 100 people were gathered in the parking lot of the Alberta Innovates Technology Futures (AITF) headquarters in Vegreville to participate in the ribbon cutting ceremony and biochar seminar that day.

A total of 88 delegates participated in the seminar which featured keynote speakers Julie Major of McGill University and Lloyd Helferty of Biochar Consulting Canada.

Anyia pointed out there were participants from Quebec, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and as far away as the United Kingdom and Australia.

Anyia said biochar holds so much potential and opportunity as well as possible applications.

"It's a platform to create value added products."

What began as an idea about a year and a half ago has evolved into a full fledged project which is part of a joint consortium of AITF, Lakeland College, and industry partners with financial assistance from Western Economic Diversification Canada.

The Alberta Biochar Initiative (ABI) has two demonstration scale biochar productions units, both with a capacity of producing one ton of dry biochar per day.

Engineers Dr. James Joyce of Black is Green and Peter Fransham of Abri-Tech, who fabricated the units were on hand to explain the inner workings of the machines to delegates and guests.

The six primary themes of focus for ABI include: *Biochar production and quality. *Biochar growth media for greenhouse crops. *Biochar for land reclamation/remediation and waste water treatment. *Biochar as a soil amendment to boost crop yield. *Alberta biochar partner engagement. *Quantification of the carbon sequestration potential of biochar.

One of the main objectives of ABI is to develop or collaborate on at least one partner project every three years.

Anyia told the crowd they want to ensure the project is a good fit for researchers and businesses alike. "We want to make it a commercial success in Alberta."

Vegreville Mayor Richard Coleman was also excited to see the turn out, and acknowleged his council colleagues in attendance as well as other dignitaries and special guests.

Mel Mathison, from Lakeland College, expressed his desire to see project and process lead to its commercialization. "We want to take it out of the lab and into the fields."

MLA Jacquie Fenske said the project was a concrete example of putting technology into action. "It's an exciting example of what can be done with collaboration and co-operation."

Fenske expressed her hope that the project will bridge gaps between research, technology and industry to create partnerships and business opportunities in the province.

Commission drafts new federal electoral boundries The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for Alberta has concluded its work of redrawing the province’s federal electoral map.

The independent commission was created in February 2012 to set boundaries so that each electoral district contains roughly the same number of people while also taking into account communities of interest or identity, historical patterns and geographic size in sparsely populated regions.

After considering the views of the public and objections by members of the House of Commons, the commission submitted its final report to the Chief Electoral Officer for transmission to the Speaker of the House.

The report was tabled in the House today. The Chief Electoral Officer will use this report when drafting the representation order, which is expected to become official in fall 2013.

The new electoral map will be used at the first general election called at least seven months after that date.

The commission’s office in Calgary is now closed.

Requests for information on the next steps in the redistribution process can be directed to Elections Canada’s Media Relations Office.

Pedal Pushers bike safety course a success Michelle Pinon Editor Katy Semeniuk says it’s scary to know there are kids in the community who are riding bikes without knowing what to do.

The longtime Bruderheim resident was so concerned about an incident that occurred last summer that she decided to take the initiaitive to organize a bike safety course for children in the community.

So Semeniuk was happy and excited to see things all come together this past Saturday. A total of 16 participants between the ages of five and 11 years of age participated in the Pedal Pushers Bike Safety Course which is endorsed by the Alberta

Safety Standards Council.

She was very grateful for the participation of the youth and the volunteers who helped run the program as well as the support from the Town of Bruderheim.

Sementiuk would like

the bike safety course become an annual event in Bruderheim because there are many families with young children who can benefit from the skills and education the course offers.

Redford government on the way to multiple countries to sign European investment agreements The Redford government will sign a series of research, innovation and investment agreements with European partners during an upcoming four-country trip.

Deputy Premier and Minister of Enterprise and Advanced Education Thomas Lukaszuk will sign important research and development agreements and launch new commercial partnerships with European governments and businesses during a week-long mission to Switzerland, Germany, France and the United Kingdom.

“Expanding international markets for Alberta innovations is an important part of diversifying our economy,” said Lukaszuk. “Alberta invests millions of dollars each year into

research and innovation and this mission will help Alberta companies access new opportunities, grow their businesses, and create new jobs.”

In Germany, Lukaszuk will announce an Alberta-Germany collaboration agreement supporting joint research and commercialization activities between companies in Alberta and Germany in strategic areas of technology development.

Enterprise and Advanced Education and the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology will help fund joint projects under an International Technology Partnership program managed by the Edmonton-based German-Canadian Centre for Innovation and Research. Under the

program, Alberta companies can leverage expertise, technology and funding resources from German partners to bring products to market faster.

“The partnering program provides Boreal Laser with the means to co-operate closely with a world-leading developer and supplier of lasers based in Germany. This co-operation will develop new lasers that Boreal requires for new gas detection applications which will lead to increased revenues and employment,” said Hamish Adam, CEO of Alberta-based Boreal Laser.

While in Germany, the Deputy Premier will also sign a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Bavarian State

is an important step towards Micralyne embarking on a new strategic direction.

“The technology investment attraction efforts and leverage of Sercel’s sensor technology expertise will significantly benefit Alberta’s technology sector to develop micro electro mechanical system products that will enhance the operations of Albertaís energy sector and will minimize its impact on the environment,” said Mike Ciprick, Micralyne Inc.’s Acting President and CEO. In addition, the Deputy Premier will promote Alberta’s interests to the World Economic Forum, an important global network of economic development and trade.

Krisko family from Lamont wins $1 million jack pot Submitted by the Western Canada Lottery Corporation

Rodney and Dusty Krisko recently claimed their $1 million prize.

Dusty Krisko and his father Rodney have had a little luck playing the lottery together in the past, but they were not prepared for a big win on April 20th. Their WESTERN 649 ticket won $1 million!

Rodney bought the ticket at Lamont Value Drug Mart at 5030-50th Avenue in his hometown. As they usually do, the pair waited for a few weeks to check a number of tickets all at once.

So it wasn’t until mid-May that they discovered their shared win.

Their $2 WESTERN 649 ticket exactly matched all six winning numbers

drawn - 2, 6, 27, 38, 41 and 43 - to win $1 Million.

“I thought we were being “Punk’d,” Rodney said with a laugh. “We almost had to go down and check again.”

Rodney said he looks forward to paying off his mortgage, while Dusty said he plans to put his portion of the winnings aside while he considers his options.

A representative from the lottery corporation stated the Krisko’s indicated they did not want to be contacted by media for interviews.

Bruderheim students travel back in time

PHOTOS COURTESY BRUDERHEIM SCHOOL

On May 10 a total of 88 Grade 1 to 6 students and volunteers from Bruderheim Elementary School visited the People’s of the North Saskatchewan Festival at the Fort Saskatchewan Historic Society. It gave the students the opportunity to celebrate the culture and history of the Metis and First Nations.

EVEREST® GBX NOW CONTAINS EVEREST® 2.0. SAFE, RELENTLESS CONTROLTHAT BEST FITSYOUR FIELDS. EVEREST® GBX now contains EVEREST® 2.0 in addition to fluroxypyr, the same ingredient in Attain™, providing exceptional control and economic value for managing troublesome grass and broadleaf weeds.

RELENTLESS CONTROL & CROP SAFETY: BEST OF BOTH WORLDS In University of Saskatchewan field trials over the past two years, researchers found that regardless of conditions, EVEREST 2.0 delivered Flush after flush™ control of wild oats and green foxtail with no risk of injury symptoms. The crop was able to grow without adverse effects, thanks to the super selectivity of EVEREST 2.0 on all varieties of spring and durum wheat.

“We like that EVEREST 2.0 and EVEREST GBX give customers a wide application window that lets you spray at your earliest convenience, regardless of weather conditions,” says Brent Clark of Superior Agri Services. “Spraying early provides the best weed control, and with EVEREST 2.0, young wheat has the best chance to become established and reach its top potential yield. And, at the same time, if the rains come and the crop advances, EVEREST 2.0 and EVEREST GBX are still safe to apply.”

SUPERIOR FORMULATION AND CONVENIENCE “EVEREST 2.0 is an advanced, highly concentrated liquid formulation,” says Craig Brekkas, Herbicide Marketing Manager Western Canada for Arysta LifeScience. “It’s a user-friendly, no-hassle product that wheat growers can rely on, with exceptional convenience and flexibility.” EVEREST GBX contains one 2-litre bottle of EVEREST 2.0 along with two bottles of GBX, and will treat 80 -100 acres.

EVEREST GBX. A herbicide you can count on.

CHOOSE THE BEST SOLUTION FOR YOUR WEED SPECTRUM AND PRESSURE When you add the recent discovery of glyphosate13054TA0 resistant kochia in Southern Alberta to the existing challenges of Group 1 wild oat resistance and Group 2 cleaver, kochia and chickweed resistance, it’s even more important to have choices that can best fit your weed spectrum and don’t break the bank. “EVEREST GBX can be customized in terms of rate and tank-mix partners, based on individual weed spectrum and pressure,” says Brekkas. “EVEREST GBX tank-mixed with MCPA, 2,4-D or DEPLOY® gets more than 50 broadleaf weeds, including the most critical resistant weeds in Western Canada. And all at a better price than tank-mixing EVEREST 2.0 with a comparable broadleaf option.”
