Fildebrandt’s second emergency town hall
meeting quickly veered from its original topic
of pipeline cancellation to cutting the rope that
ties the province’s hands – for some that meant
Alberta separatism.
More than 30 people attended the meeting at
Strathmore Royal Canadian Legion on Monday
to discuss pipeline cancellation and Alberta’s
options moving forward. While the one-and-
a-half-hour meeting covered ground on top-
ics such as interprovincial transfers of goods,
property rights, Bill 12 and Fildebrandt’s inten-
tions on running for re-election – on which he
remained tight-lipped – much of the meeting
was hijacked by the subject of Alberta’s auton-
omy.
Despite disagreeing with some of the opin-
ions in the room to seek independence from
Canada, Fildebrandt spoke of a constitutional
referendum.
“Most of this country has bent over back-
wards to accommodate Quebec to have more
autonomy within their border for their peo-
ple without having to actually pay for it them-
selves,” he said. “Albertans I think should ask
for those same rights or the ability to pay for it
ourselves but to keep more of it here at home
and I don’t think that’s an unreasonable ask.
“We’re not just talking about economic policy
or resource stewardship anymore, we’re talking
about the fundamentals of the constitutional
basis of this country. It’s been a bad few years
for those of us who believe in the constitution.
We’re not asking for special status, we’re ask-
ing for the original constitution to be applied
fairly and to keep a little bit more money at
home. That’s a pretty reasonable ask.”
Some of the discussion stemmed from the
Supreme Court of Canada’s recent ruling that
provinces and territories have the constitution-
al right to restrict importations of goods across
provincial and territorial borders, quashing the
hopes of those seeking easier access to cheaper
and in-demand products from neighbouring re-
gions. While the ruling also states the primary The King is back!
aim of the restriction can’t be to impede trade, Strathmore’s Royal Canadian Legion No. 10 presented Steve Hillis impersonating various

Continued from Page 1

According to Fildebrandt, the restric-
tions placed on provinces continue to
limit and interfere with Alberta’s ability to
prosper.
“For a very long time we’ve had many
laws inhibiting the movement of goods
between provinces,” he said. “Just a few
days ago the Supreme Court ruled that
you can’t even move beer across borders;
we can’t move our oil across provincial
borders, (or) milk and cheese across pro-
vincial borders without their permission.
“Alberta being blocked from producing
and exporting our resources is like the
mom of a 35-year-old kid who won’t move
out of the basement, who’s been mooch-
ing off of us forever, who then won’t even
let us get a job to pay to keep him in the
basement. We’re being stopped of produc-
ing the wealth that’s supporting others.”
Although Fildebrandt’s intention was for
Alberta to voice their anger to the rest of
the country and seek a referendum to re-
assert the Constitution, some folks at Mon-
day’s event were looking to something
more extreme.
Larry Smith founded the Alberta Inde-
pendence Movement, which has an on-
line presence on Facebook of over 5,000
members, although he said support reach-
es close to 40,000. Smith and other mem-
bers of the movement were present at the
meeting, and said they are in support of
Alberta separating from Canada.
“I just don’t see any other option. I know
from the time I spent on the Harper team
what happens if something comes out of
Alberta or Western Canada and goes to Ot-
tawa. If it doesn’t favour Ontario in some
way the best response you’ll get is ‘nah’ or
you’ll get the ‘no’ and if we get the no it
dies, that’s it,” he said.
“If you’re in a position of strength and
you’re negotiating with someone and
you’re 38 per cent stronger, are you going
to say, well hang on a second let me give
you 15 per cent of my peoples’ fair argu-
ment? You’re not going to do it.”
But not everyone in the room attended
the meeting to discuss Alberta’s autono-
my. Markus Lehmann is interested in what
is happening politically and he said he
strives to be an active citizen in the rights
and obligations as an Albertan. While he
enjoyed the meeting, he was hoping to get
more information on generating more rev-
enue using Alberta’s resources.
“It strayed somewhat from the original
topic, I think – about the pipeline, the ac-
cess to tide water for our resources – and
it sort of morphed into a constitutional
question which perhaps is a different type
of discussion, and it has its place for Al-
bertans and for any Canadian who feels
disenfranchised,” said Lehmann, president
of Navigatio Capital.
“But I think the discussion that Alberta
needs right now is how to generate more
revenue with the resources that it has – be
that hydrocarbon, be that human resourc-
es, be that natural resources – which are

With the flooding reported near Taber
and on Siksika Nation, some people
are turning their eyes to the mountain
snowpack and wondering if melt condi-
tions will cause major floods this year.
Mark Bennett, executive director of
the Bow River Basin Council, said he
didn’t think major flood conditions
were anticipated at this time.
“You can only predict with the infor-
mation that you have,” said Bennett.
“Conditions for the mountain snow-
pack are fundamentally different than
the ones in Taber and Siksika.”
He said he suspects the localized
ground flooding has more to do with
the soil saturation levels and water not
having anywhere to drain. With the
cooler temperatures, frost hasn’t yet
melted and, combined with soil types
that don’t absorb water well, the con-
ditions don’t allow drainage. He said
once the available space in the soil be-
lowground is filled, the water would
collect in one place or move. As for
the mountain snowpack, Bennett said
unique conditions have to be in place
for flooding like the one that led to the
2013 Calgary-area flooding.
“There is always a danger if you have
a rapid melt and freeze/thaw condi-
tions concentrated over a week or two,”
said Bennett.
Measures have been taken in the
province to address flooding and moni-
toring systems are watched carefully.
Alberta Environment and Parks has
awarded over $160 million to various
municipalities for storm water and
wastewater improvement. One proj-
ect developed by TransAlta is a water
systems software program that moni-
tors inflow/outflow to the various in-
frastructure systems. Through collected
data, areas under water stress can now
be pinpointed for alleviation through
water level adjustments at dams, spills
Many roads in Gleichen fell victim to overland flooding on April 21. Siksika Nation, Carseland, Drum-
heller, and the community of Wayne near Drumheller are also dealing with overland flooding.
and floodgates.
Infrastructure work has also been
done by various municipalities, improv-
ing things like new riverbank support,
diking and water walls to protect low
lying areas such as the Calgary Stam-
pede grounds and the Calgary Zoo.
Wheatland County crews have been
working to help farmers clear some
of the ice from culverts and have seen
some roadways with water build-up.
“As of right now, there is some stand-
ing water and water over roads in some
areas, but we have no roads that are
deemed impassable,” said Mike Ziehr,
general manager infrastructure and
transportation with Wheatland County.
“Our crews are keeping an eye on all
areas and we continue to encourage
Wheatland County residents to let us
know of any problem areas.”

Prospect aims to serve job seekers
and employers in Strathmore
MIRIAM OSTERMANN
Times Associate Editor
A new organization is moving into
Strathmore next month, offering career
and employment information services.
Prospect Human Services (Prospect)
is a private not-for-profit charitable or-
ganization that’s served communities
across Alberta for over 20 years.
Having acquired Strathmore, Pros-
pect now operates out of seven loca-
tions that offer seven job placement
services and 12 employment focused
programs with emphasis on communi-
ty engagement, building relationships
with surrounding communities – such
as Standard and Siksika Nation – and
working with persons with disabilities.
The organization, which has been
providing career and employment in-
formation services since 1997, works
with over 12,000 Albertans annually.
“We know that McBride (Career
Group) provided quality support and
we really want to recognize that. We’re
excited to bring our quality services
out to Strathmore as well,” said Alexi
Davis, director of employment services
with Prospect. “I think a huge focus is
on building relationships and there’s a
lot of different stakeholders there that
are important to the economy. We’re
certainly going to be reaching out and
doing a lot of community outreach,
participating on different councils and
committees where it makes sense, and
doing a lot of employer relationship
building.”
Prospect will provide Strathmore
with an employment resource centre
along with information on the labour
market, job search, employment stan-
dards, resumé writing and interview
questions. Access to short-term courses,
career planning and programs targeted
at employers will also be available.
According to Davis, Strathmore’s
growing community with its wide range
of demographics, local businesses and
educational providers proved attractive
to the organization.
“A strong economy and a strong
workforce is an economy that everyone

The Strathmore Theatre Players’ Guild performed one-act plays to a large crowd at Origin Malting & Brewing Company on April

Three levels of response are awareness, opera-
tion and technican response, with their respec-
tive definitions set in the document. Types of re-
sponse include basic exterior with offense and
defense attack and parameters for non-structural
fires, grass wildfire, medical response with first
aid, basic life support and emergency medical
responder service, motor vehicle and rescue re-
sponse.
Anyone covered under the fire services cannot
be held liable for loss or damages due to anything
said, done or omitted, while acting under the pa-
rameters of the bylaw or legislative authority and
performing functions of their duty in good faith.
The various fire associations are given author-
ity to provide protection within their district ar-
eas and for assistance calls, as long as they have
an active status under the Societies Act. The dis-
trict association fire chiefs have equal respon-
sibility and authority over their fire services, as
any other district fire chief in the county, with
similar training required under fire policies and
procedures. The fire associations must adhere to
the provisions of the bylaw and the service levels
and policies.
The county emergency services manager will
negotiate fire agreements with the various fire as-
sociations, and those contracts allow for county
liability protection for those responding to fire
calls. Fire protection agreements will be updated
with mandatory requirements covered in the new
update.
Klauer emphasized how important accurate
record keeping is for all departments, and that
responsibility lands on all the district fire chiefs’
desks.
Details of funding and reporting requirements
by the fire services are also outlined in the bylaw.
Appointment of fire guardians, their responsi-
bilities and authorization, permit, processes, pro-
hibited fires and fire bans are described in the
bylaw. The regional fire chief will set fire bans,
and any permits granted prior to the ban will
be suspended until the ban is lifted. The bylaw
prohibits the use and sale of fireworks without
a valid permit authorized under the bylaw. All
fire chiefs have the authority to determine fire
hazards and direct property owners to remedy
the problem in a set amount of time. If the direc-
tive is not heeded, they may order cleanup proce-
dures with all fees payable by the owner.
Wheatland County council has final approval of
the submitted fire department capital and opera-
tion budgets.
“The buck really stops with Wheatland Coun-
ty council, literally,” said Klauer. “These are all
taxpayer dollars that are being utilized and allo-
cated to fire protection services, and it is a ques-
tion of how much accountability does Wheatland
County council want to have vis-a-vis the fire
associations, in respect to the fire protection as-
sociations and the amount of money Wheatland
County gives to the associations.”
She added that purchases and equipment deals
from the past stay intact, and any association
could fundraise to purchase and own their own
equipment.

REMEMBERING OUR ROOTS ~ Rene and Ona Trudel
JOHN GODSMAN
Times Contributor
There is a village in northern France called Par-
fondeval, where the original Trudel family lived
as far back as the 1600’s. The original building is
still standing and being lived in by descendants
of this family. In 1655, Jean Trudel with his wife
Marguerite (nee Thomas) came to Quebec and
became farmers and fishermen in this new land.
To this day, a plaque commemorates the loca-
tion of the Trudel homestead near Montmorency
Falls, just east of Quebec City
on the St Lawrence River. Little
is known of the family during
the following years, until a Ge-
rard Trudel arrived in Lancer,
Sask. (N.W. of Swift Current) in
1926. Gerard met and married
Rachel Bly, who was of Norwe-
gian descent, in 1933 and they
had four children. Rene, the
second born, arrived on March
6, 1936 and lived and went to
school in Lancer until Grade 12, when he en-
rolled at the University of Saskatchewan graduat-
ing with a B.E. Mechanical Engineering in 1958.
Of note - despite the fact that ‘Jean’ was the
only brother who came to Canada in 1655, over
22,000 Trudels attended the family’s 300th Anni-
versary held in Quebec in 1955!
Ona (Leona) Zimmer’s family originates from
Alsace Lorraine, in Northern Germany. Members
of her family moved to North America in the
1800’s, and her grandfather Ben Zimmer moved
to Landis, Sask. in 1905, where he became a farm-
er.
Ona attended a country school at Needwood,
a one room school, where she took Grades 1
Pipeline in jeopardy
MARTIN SHIELDS
Member of Parliament Bow River Riding
What happened to social license? Will this coun-
try ever build a pipeline to tidewater again?
Unfortunately, these are questions that need to
be asked now that the Trans Mountain Pipeline
project has been thrown into jeopardy.
As I’m sure you’ve heard, Kinder Morgan an-
nounced it is suspending work on the project.
They are worried the pipeline will be tied up in-
definitely, and who can blame them? The Prime
Minister failed to take immediate action to address
the situation with the BC Government. The Liber-
als already vetoed the Northern Gateway pipeline,
which was a political decision that had nothing to
do with science. Then they killed Energy East with
last minute regulatory changes.
What kind of signal is this sending to anyone
wanting to invest in Canadian energy? It’s no sur-
prise that the Liberals have now presided over the
biggest decline in Canadian energy investment in
70 years – a loss of $80 billion dollars.
On April 14, the Prime Minister finally an-
nounced that he may be working on a plan for
the Trans Mountain project. But he needs taxpayer
dollars to do it. Kinder Morgan didn’t ask for tax
dollars – they want to get to work on the pipeline,
and they just need a guarantee it will go ahead.
Whether you agree with this course of action
or not, I think it is an indictment of this govern-
ment’s policies that the private sector might now
need tax dollars to be convinced to build some-
thing in this country (and the verdict is still out on
whether even that will be enough). Furthermore, a
government stake in the project won’t do anything

to the lack of accommodation
people were sleeping in ditch-
es and culverts, but one Sep-
tember it rained for the whole
month, and five more days into
October! Rene and Ona lived in
Drayton Valley for eight years
until 1966, and their four chil-
dren were born there. They now have two grand-
children and one great-grandchild. That year, they
moved to Calgary where they found the build-
ing boom was just as intense. Rene remembers
watching five or six cranes putting up high rises
in the downtown core.
In 1980, they moved to Lloydminster, where the
main street runs north/south and constitutes the
Alberta/ Saskatchewan border. An often-quoted
phrase was “that Main Street was part of the lon-
gest surveyed straight line, in all of North Amer-
ica!”
Education and hospital services were operated
by the Saskatchewan Government, regardless of
whether they were on the Alberta or Saskatch-
to placate those holding up the project with their
opposition.
As recently as last week (while on a trip to
France), the Prime Minister said he wants to “phase
out” the Canadian energy sector. We now have the
carbon tax, regulatory changes, and inaction on
Trans Mountain as proof that he means what he
said. Despite their promises, this government’s
policies have done nothing to secure the so-called
‘social license’ we were told was needed to build
approved pipelines.
Needless to say, this is bad for Canada – and
especially Alberta. Energy companies don’t just
provide employment - they actively invest in our
communities. Thousands of community centres,
hockey rinks and neighborhood events across our
province are sponsored by energy companies. Not
to mention important services, such as the STARS
Air Ambulance. If the energy companies leave, we
lose an incredibly important community partner.
To all those who have written to members of
parliament, attended rallies, and shown their sup-
port for Canadian energy – thank you. I know
there are so many people who have lost their jobs
and suffered needless hardships because of this
government’s decisions. Please know that we will
keep up the fight in Ottawa. The best way to get
the Canadian energy sector back on track is to re-
place this Liberal government in 2019.

First annual Hike for Hospice

welcomes more participants
MIRIAM OSTERMANN
Times Associate Editor
In chorus with the National Hospice
Palliative Care Week, the Wheatland
and Area Hospice Society (WAHS) is
launching the first annual Hike for
Hospice to raise awareness and funds
for programs surrounding palliative
care.
The aim of the fundraiser will further
propel the vision of a hospice facility
for end-of-life care and services within
Strathmore and Wheatland County.
The society is hosting a 5 km walk
around Gray’s Park and a 1 km walk
around Kinsmen Lake to help educate
and raise awareness of the issue as
well as raise funds to support local ter-
minally ill patients and their families.
“Our communities form a huge part
of our lives and experiences,” said
Dr. Joni McNeely, president of WAHS
board of directors. “When we are faced
with a critical illness or must make
decisions surrounding the end of life,
our communities are the ones who can
step in to support us and ensure that
our wishes are honoured. The Wheat-
land and Area Hospice Society strives
to facilitate a compassionate commu-
nity that can meet the diverse needs of
the families in Wheatland County and
area.”
Thus far, the society has already
obtained approximately $650,000 to-
wards the collaborative project, yet re-
mains shy of the necessary $3 million
to $5 million required for obtaining
a building and to cover operational
costs. In addition, the society expects
yearly salaries and operations will cost
at least another $500,000. While oth-
er fundraisers proved successful over
the past two-and-a-half years – since Grassland Wildfire Operations Course
fundraising efforts began – the Hike
for Hospice is a collaborative effort
with the Canadian Hospice Palliative Are you a Municipal Firefighter or area farmer?

“This happens across Canada in sev-
eral cities and it is more of an aware-
ness this time; there’s a fundraising
aspect to it, but it’s more of an aware-

Arts on 817 prepares for final concert in series

Not a bad hair day

When Chris Morrison auditioned for the University of Al-
berta many years ago, he was told the competition was fierce,
that he would be up against hopefuls who’d been playing for
at least 10 years. He was advised not to try out when he had
only had steady trumpet lessons for one year.
Fortunately for Strathmore, Morrison didn’t listen to the
advice. He ended up attending the university, then later re-
ceived his Bachelor of Music Performance from the Univer-
sity of Toronto. He landed a job with the Thunder Bay Sym-
phony Orchestra before branching off and co-creating the
Foothills Brass with his wife Rosalee in 1980.
The Foothills Brass quintet will be performing in the fi-
nal concert for Strathmore’s Arts on 817 concert series next
week.
“When you’re studying music they often put you into
smaller groups as a training thing and I found that was fun,
and when I got a job in a symphony orchestra part of what
I wanted to do was create a strong brass quintet within that
orchestra,” said Morrison. “
“We always love to play for a new audience and support a
new concert series. It’s just great that they’re doing that there
and we just want to make sure that everybody has a good
time so they’ll come back.”
Morrison was born in Trail, B.C., and a dozen or so years
later, moved with his family to the Northwest Territories. By
then, he’d had a few music lessons and a year of band under
his belt. But in the Territories, one of only two students in
Grade 8, music opportunities were scarce.
Yet Morrison was always surrounded by music. His father
sang in choirs, his mother played piano and his musically
skilled brother became his role model. Then, as a Grade 9
student, his parents enrolled him in the Okanagan Summer
School of the Arts that sparked the fire once again.
Since the creation of Foothills Brass, the quintet has at-
tracted musicians from all over Canada, and has a total of
28 members on its roster – although only nine are currently
active. While the band always performs with five members,
other members are able to jump in when needed.
Morrison reminisced that 15 years ago the band would take
part in 200 concerts a year across Canada, the United States,
England and Jerusalem. While that number has declined

Strathmore next week to perform their salute to spring with
the concert Strawberry Fields, which features Chris Morrison
on trumpet, Rosalee Morrison on French horn, Jean-François
Cotnoir on tuba, Jay Michalak on trumpet, and Carsten Ru-
beling on trombone. Those in attendance will hear a range of
music from the classics such as Vivaldi and the Four Seasons,
to the Beatles’ Here Comes the Sun.
Yet, it won’t be the quintets’ first appearance in Strathmore,
having held concerts at Strathmore schools for many years.
Morrison estimates a total of over one million school chil-
dren have seen the band perform, including those at École
Brentwood Elementary School.
“I approached them for our first season because I knew
Chris and his wife Rosalee personally,” said Carolyn Steeves,
artistic director and member of the Arts on 817 committee.
“Rosalee and I did our Masters of music degrees at the Uni-
versity of Calgary together and I had Foothills Brass do a
concert at École Brentwood Elementary School many years
ago. For our first season we were looking for talent from Cal-
gary and southern Alberta area and they were a perfect fit.”
The Foothills Brass will be performing on May 4 at the
Strathmore United Church at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 for
adults, and $10 for students. For tickets call Linda at 403-

Firefighters object to updated fire bylaw
SHARON MCLEAY
Times Contributor
Community fire service personnel are not happy
with the updated fire bylaw brought to Wheatland
County council on April 17.
Firefighter Craig Nelson spoke on behalf of the
Dalum, Rockyford, Rosebud and Standard fire de-
partments and rural fire associations. He pointed
out some of the deficiencies in the document.
“We very strongly feel there are numerous is-
sues, errors and items needing discussion before
this bylaw moves forward,” said Nelson.
He said the group could not see where new pro-
vincial changes were a catalyst to create the new
bylaw and asked if those requirements could be
more directly indicated. They also would like a
definition section, breaking down the various po-
sitions listed in the bylaw, worded with more clar-
ity on how they relate to the present fire services
hierarchy. The fire personnel said the format was
confusing.
He stated services were told the February 2007
mutual aid agreements between services were no
longer valid and that many services never had
written mutual aid agreements.
“Section four ... part of this section is overbear-
ing and redundant, and put the regional fire chief
and deputy fire chief in total control of all fire
scenes and fire departments, and this will not
work,” said Nelson.
He said they disagreed with removal of autono-
my for budgets and purchases.
“Micromanagement seems to be the big issue
here,” said Nelson. “Instead of a view to control
costs and save for the future … we will have to
budget high and spend all the money.”
He compared the bylaw to the one developed
in Rocky View County, which he said now has a
budget of $14 million.
He felt the process for developing the bylaw
does not set up a partnership situation and will
have an impact on whether volunteers will put
themselves forward.
“We have issues and we must ask ourselves …
where the partnership is?” said Nelson.
“We present this to plead to have full input on
this bylaw and to show true respect and partner-
ship on this bylaw.”
Nelson said it would be more productive to
form a committee that includes community fire
members, to go through the bylaw piece by piece.
“I hope that Wheatland County council is open
to some negotiation on this process,” said Rocky-
ford Mayor Darcy Burke.
He referenced the FireWise consultation that
was done prior to developing the fire service
agreement. He commended the process and

Plant Protein offers opportunities
SHARON MCLEAY
Times Contributor
By 2050, forecasters say global population growth will reach
nine billion people, which requires that protein production in-
crease by at least 50 to 98 per cent to feed world populations.
Canada already plays a major role in producing food for the
world, but with new markets opening up, new opportunities
present themselves for Canadian producers.
Wheatland County CAO Alan Parkin said a presentation from
the Plant Protein Association (PPA) of Alberta, www.ppaa.ca ,
opened his eyes to the economic possibilities for aquaculture
and plant based agriculture producers.
“A lot of these countries don’t want to consume meat, they
want to consume protein from other sources,” said Parkin.
“There is some pretty good potential there. They believe there
will be a pretty big market developing.”
The Protein Industries Canada (PIC) supercluster, in western
Canada, will share with other provincial superclusters, a $150
million dollar federal grant to develop plant protein opportu-
nities within a five year deadline; that money will be aimed at
crop breeding and production, export development and value-
added processing.
“Companies, non-profits crop associations in a wide associa-
tion of members, came together in an informal way and we

submitted proposal to the federal government,” said PIC Act-
ing President Roy Styles.
The government expects this to be a major boost for agri-
culture, creating more than 4,500 new jobs and adding $4.5
billion to Canada’s economy over 10 years.
Traditionally, Western Canada’s crops centre on whole
grains or minimally processed grains like wheat, oats, canola,
flax and forage grasses. Styles said that new protein crops are
beginning to find their way into western Canada. He said it is
similar to the early days of canola’s introduction to producers.
With spring planting coming up, producers might want to con-
sider diversifying their farm plans to cash in on new markets,
by getting information on pulse crops like dry peas, lentils,
beans, chickpea, quinoa and hemp.
“We want to create an ecosystem, a network and system in
western Canada, to take advantage of the strengths we have
when it comes to crop protein. This isn’t just about spending
money; it’s about creating a system, an economic cluster that
hopefully will continue long after PIC is gone. We are looking
for a change in directions,” said Styles. “We are hopeful that
over time it will attract other funding from government entities
and agencies. After the five years we hope we will be a self-
sustaining entity. Our focus is really on this first two or three
years is making sure we get things organized to build the suc-
cess necessary to see the growth in jobs and the GDP (gross
domestic product) that is necessary to ensure the farmers and
processors are successful as possible.”
He said they are beginning to define the terms of member-
ship for PIC and members. Only members of PIC will be able

nate conflict of interest for money allo-
cated, and once organizational details,
research and strategic goals are defined,
opportunities will posted on the website
and advertised.
“The information will be broadly dis-
tributed and people interested can get
involved,” said Styles.
He said the efforts would build frame-
works leading to benefits for secondary
processing industries as well. He an-
ticipates 50 per cent of the money will
target processing and processing tech-
nology. The group will help businesses
develop business plans and help estab-
lish secondary facilities. Once the pro-
tein crops are grown, they need to be re-
fined through milling, fractionalization,
blending and repackaging. This leads to
opportunity chains for the refined prod-
ucts in the manufacture of baked goods,
snacks, pasta, soups and sauces, health
foods and pet and animal feed.
“The end result is going to be jobs
and economic growth, just as it was with
canola as a crop,” said Styles.
Several large secondary companies
have already established themselves in
southern Alberta.
LA Grain near Lethbridge has seen
success through grading and bagging
pulse crops, and a fractionalization plant
near Bowden also expects business to be
profitable.
Wheatland County is looking to ad-
vance their economic development.
There may be opportunities for second-
ary businesses to set up shop close to
where these types of crops are produced,
developing businesses that would grow
and sustain some of our smaller rural
communities.
Styles said western Canada is not get-
ting the maximum benefits from the
crops we produce. He said there are so
many other proteins and higher concen-
trations that can be used. As an example,
he said plant protein used by aquacul-
ture processes is giving farmers $80 a
ton and he thinks that can be increased
to $800 to $1,000 a ton in the coming
years.
“That goes right into the pockets of the
farmers,” said Styles.
As to whether this initiative will detract
buyers from meat producers, Styles said
there will definitely be markets for both.
“People always think it as a zero sum
game, it’s not,” said Styles. “At a six per
cent anticipated demand for protein, ev-
erything from chicken to crickets will be
needed. We don’t think it is an either/or
situation.”

Ruppe in
tourney
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
It went down just how he would have
liked it.
The third annual Kyle Ruppe Memo-
rial Hockey three-on-three tournament
went off without a hitch last weekend
at the Strathmore Family Centre.
All of Ruppe’s former teammates,
friends and competitors suited up for
another weekend of hockey and hang-
ing out with the boys.
“This tournament isn’t about win-
ning or losing, it’s just about getting the
boys together for a weekend of hockey.
That’s the way Kyle would have wanted
it,” said one of Ruppe’s oldest friends,
Kyle Sheen.
A smaller turnout than last year, this
year’s tournament featured eight teams
– including one female squad – split up
into two divisions, in another attempt
to raise money for the charities that
mattered most to Ruppe.
Puck drop took place in the morning
of April 21, as the round robin schedule
went on throughout the day, featuring
players from around Wheatland County
and Calgary region who knew of Rup-
pe or played with him in the past.
“We wanted to put together a tour-
nament in honour of Kyle,” said Chad
Krushelnicki, one of the tournament
organizers. “We wanted to get everyone
around the rink to do something for
him and share the memory of him with
everyone that he was involved with.”
Born and raised in Strathmore, Rup-
pe was a hockey player who starred in
the local scene, playing for the UFA Bi-
sons before moving on to the Okotoks
Bisons of the Heritage Junior Hockey
League, and completed his playing ca-
reer in 2007 as a member of the Mount
Royal Cougars. He was diagnosed with
ALS in 2011 and passed away Nov. 21,
2015. He was 33.

more Civic Centre. Beef on a bun and drinks were served, as
players bid on a live and silent auction, with all proceeds go-
ing to charity. In the two prior years, the tourney raised over
$20,000. This year, the tourney was able to bring together
$15,000. Like every year, the money is donated to organiza-
tions that meant the most to Ruppe, including KidSport, ALS
and new this year, a donation to the Humboldt Broncos.
The Wheatland Athletic Association continues to make sure
Ruppe’s story and significance will not be forgotten anytime
soon by continuing to hand out the Kyle Ruppe Memorial
Scholarship to two players from the midget Chiefs team.
This year’s winners of the $1,500 award are Jared Kirk-
patrick and Riley Stovka. In 39 games, Kirkpatrick supplied
four goals and 14 assists, while Stovka went 9-7-3 between
the pipes with a 3.44 goals-against average and a .880 save
percentage.
“I know a little bit about him. I know he was really in-
volved with the community and hockey, but I never met him;
I’ve only heard good things about him,” said Stovka, who will
attend the University of Calgary next fall to pursue a political
science degree. “It meant a lot to me to win the scholarship.
University is expensive and every little bit helps. I’m glad I
was given the scholarship in Kyle’s name.”
Stovka was a member of the Gunners in the tournament
and went 1-1-1 in the round robin before losing out in the
semis. Last year, he was one of the refs who helped out.
“This is a great tournament. I’m happy to be a part of it,”
said Stovka. “It’s great to see the community continue to sup-
port him they way they did this weekend.”
By the time the final buzzer sounded, the Zambronis – a
team of local players featuring Shane Fraser, Ty Tarvyd and
Cole Busslinger, who were all much younger than Ruppe –
ended up winning the tournament in the end on the competi-
tive side, with the Flyers out of High River taking the title in
the non-competitive division.
But none of it even mattered. Everyone was happy to spend
a weekend together, playing hockey and raising money for a
friend who left far too soon.

Just-4-Fun scores
successful season
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
Strathmore is a hockey town, no doubt about that.
Further proof took place this spring when one parent
of a future hockey star started up her own league just
to get her kid some extra ice time after the end of his
season.
“My son and the kids from his team were just peaking
at the end of the season, it was a shame they had to hang
their skates up so soon,” said Ninette Maga. “Unless we
were willing to fork over hundreds of dollars to go skate
in Calgary or Chestermere all spring, there really wasn’t
anything for us.”
After making a couple of phone calls to inquire about
ice time, Maga found some openings in April for her son
and his friends to use.
Mitch, who just turned seven, played this season with
the Timbits Firestorm team. They typically skated twice
a week, from mid-October up until the end of February.
“We just started asking around to see who was inter-
ested,” said Maga. “Once we started booking ice times,
more people contacted us and wanted in.”
The Just-4-Fun hockey program kicked off at the begin-
ning of March and wrapped up this weekend. Altogether,
14 kids signed up for permanent status while another six
joined towards the end as drop-in players.
Maga and her husband were two of the six coaches
who ran the program, which was headed by Adri Solway,
who coaches at WinSport Arena and with Maximum Per-
formance Hockey.
In the Just-4-Fun’s eight ice times, the coaching staff
spent 50 minutes working on skill development, while
the final 10 minutes were slated for a game of shinny.
Even though the players were novice and Timbit age,
the program used up every inch of the ice at the Strath-
more Family Centre, and didn’t play with the sideways
rinks.
With the program wrapping up shortly, Maga is blown
away at the interest that continues to roll in.
“So many people keep asking me if we have anything
planned for July or August,” said Maga. “Just about ev-
eryone wants to come back in the summer time, but we
haven’t even begun to think that far in advance.”
As a result of the interest, Maga was able to raise
enough money to cover the ice times, supply each kid
with matching jerseys and socks and a water bottle, and
will send the kids off to the summer season with a medal
and a gift bag to remember their time with the program.
Hopefully that is enough to tie them over for a few
months while the Maga family ponders another hockey
camp.
“The support we got from the community was amazing
and the kids loved the program. I would love to do an-
other one of these in the future, but there is a lot we have
to figure out,” said Maga. “If we do want to hold another
one, I’m sure it wouldn’t be hard to find enough people
interested in getting some ice time.”

Former Bison re-ups with the Oilers
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
Ty Rattie has come a long way
from his time running around
the Strathmore Family Centre as
a member of the UFA Bisons.
From playing alongside guys
like Kyle Knelsen, Steven Fernie
and Devin Mitzner during the
2008-09 season, Rattie slightly
upgraded and just wrapped his
fifth NHL season flying down
the wing beside Connor McDa-
vid.
“It’s weird how that works
right?” said Rattie, after his Ed-
monton Oilers shaved the di-
vision-winning Vegas Golden
Knights 4-3 April 5 at Rogers
Place. “Sometimes you have
to pinch yourself when you’re
playing with the best player in
the world. At the same time, you
can’t be in awe or star struck be-
cause there are a million other
guys that want to take your
spot. I’m just trying to play my
best and keep up with that line.”
Rattie wrapped up the season
by finishing off a McDavid steal
in the offensive end and ripped
one from the faceoff dot over
Malcolm Subban for his fifth of
the season.
“I thought we kept the pres-
sure on them most of the night
and didn’t allow them to have
too much zone pressure in our
end. It felt good to get the win
tonight,” said Rattie.
The Airdrie product’s two
points in the Oilers’ penultimate
regular season game capped off
a year that saw him record nine

points in 14 games as part of his
two-way contract with the Oil-
ers.
NHL clubs offer young players
that might not have performed
up to expectations a two-year
deal for a year as a last chance
to show if they can sink or float
in the big leagues.
At 25 years of age, Rattie’s
nine points with the Oilers
and 21 goals, 22 assists and 43
points in 53 games with the Ba-
kersfield Condors of the Ameri-
can Hockey League convinced
the Oilers management group
to renew Rattie’s deal April 14.
Terms and dollar amount of
the new deal were not released
by April 24, but the Oilers will
bring him back for at least one
more year.
It’s been a long and winding
road for the former Bison star.
“Being from Airdrie, the Bi-
sons were always the top team
that you wanted to play for
coming out of bantam. I remem-
ber being nervous at training
camp, wondering if I was going
to make the team. But everyone
welcomed me and the coach-
ing staff was great and I have
nothing but good things to say
about my time in Strathmore,”
said Rattie.
Rattie went on to have an
incredible career in the West-
ern Hockey League, scoring
151 goals, 197 assists and 348
points in 269 games for the
Portland Winterhawks. He won
the Ed Chynoweth Cup for the
2012-13 season and was eventu-
ally selected 32nd overall by the

“Going into my free agent
year (last summer), Edmonton
was one of my top choices.
They have good young guys, a
good organization and I knew
a couple of guys here already,”
said Rattie. “It’s just one of those
things that worked out in the
end and I am happy it did.”
Since turning pro, Rattie has
buried nine goals and 19 points
in 48 games in the NHL over
five seasons with the Carolina
Hurricanes, Blues and Oilers.
Spending most of his time in the
minors, Rattie has compiled 92
goals, 92 assists and 184 points
in 268 AHL games with the Chi-
cago Wolves and Condors.
Even though Rattie has been
well travelled since his time
with the Bisons came to an end,
he still remembers Strathmore.
As an Airdrie native, he is torn
about his feelings with the relo-
cation of the Bisons.
“Obviously, Strathmore had
an awesome program. But being
from Airdrie, it was bitter sweet
to see them leave. I was able
to get involved with the train-
ing camp process this year and
that was cool to broaden my
horizons by helping out with
tryouts,” said Rattie. “Strathmore
did a heck of a job with the
team they had. I’m sure they’ll
get another team to come back.” The day the circus came to town

GIVE LIFE WHAT IT TAKES
Someone once said that “It takes
being fanatic to go beyond an
average”
Who is a fanatic? A fanatic is
someone who is obsessed by or
totally sold out to a course of action.
He does everything and anything
to protect, defend and project
whatever he believes in. He is
that person that goes beyond the
conventional. In the process, he
risks his life, stresses himself; gives
whatever it takes and goes the extra
mile to achieve a goal. Those with
this attitude not only achieve their
goals, they achieve it excellently
well. In addition, a fanatic does
things religiously.
However, to an extent, everybody
is a fanatic. Everyone is fanatical
about something; it only depends
on what is fanatical about. There
are those who are fanatical
about excellence in their career,
excellence in ministry, excellence
in the home affairs (marriage),
excellence in academic, excellence
in business or investment portfolios
management, excellence in fashion
and so on. For example, a student
who is fanatical about his/her
studies will always be in the honors
category. It takes being fanatical to
cross the barrier of an average in
whatever one does. It takes being
fanatical to move from outstanding
performance to become a standard
for others in life. For instance, the

Kent, Trentham crowned AJHL champs
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
The Alberta Junior Hockey League playoffs are
supposed to be grueling; a battle of attrition. But
two former Strathmore-based players made them
look like a piece of cake.
Armed with former CFR Chemicals Bisons cap-
tain Brett Trentham and former Wheatland Athlet-
ic Association goaltender Nolan Kent, the Spruce
Grove Saints capped off a strong second half of
the season where they only dropped three games;
the Saints swept their first two rounds of the AJHL
playoffs.
“It’s pretty surreal. I knew we had the team to
do this, but now that we are actually here is pretty
amazing,” said Kent, a Chestermere product.
Their prize for running the table in the playoffs
was a date with the top-ranked Okotoks Oilers,
along with former Bison Kyle Gordon and Blake
Wells in the Inter Pipeline Cup.
The Saints stunned the Oilers by picking up a
pair of overtime victories in Game 1 and 2 in the
best-of-seven finals at the Pason Centennial Arena
in Okotoks.
Trentham, who blocked a shot in a Game 4 win
in the semis over the Whitecourt Wolverines was
still trying to figure out if he was able or not to
play the series.
“The shot went off my left foot and it hurt pretty
bad. I got X-rays on it and they came back nega-
tive, so I tried to play in Game 1,” said Trentham.
“I also tried to go in Game 3, but it was too pain-
ful. I went and got X-rays again and it turned out
that my fibula was broken.”
The Saints didn’t seem to be slowed down by
the loss of the red-hot Trentham, as they captured
the AJHL trophy with a 3-2 victory in Game 5 back
in Okotoks April 20.
Trentham was on fire in the playoffs. Appearing
in only 10 playoff games, the Three Hills prod-
uct matched his 46 regular season total with three
goals and eight points.
“He was unbelievable for us. He was a guy we
expected to turn it up in the playoffs,” said Saints
Head Coach Bram Stephen. “He has been a cap-
tain in the past and been on winning teams all
his life. We didn’t expect the offensive production,
but we knew he was going to raise his game in
the playoffs.”
The Saints were also without the AJHL MVP
Chris Van Os-Shaw, who went down in Game 3.
Despite running into the injury bug at the most

Hockey League final April 20 at

important time of the season, the Saints were able
to play their lock-down system in front of Kent.
“Nolan’s focus and intelligence is unbelievable,”
said Stephen. “We knew we could play a certain
way in front of him because of how comfortable
he is dealing with traffic in front of the net. That
way, we were able to send bodies in front of the
net and block a lot of shots because somehow he
was still able to see the puck.”
Kent never faced more than 26 shots through-
out the finals and looked calm as ever with the
AJHL championship on the line.
“My team really played well in front of me. I
never really had to deal with too many shots. It’s
easy to play behind a team like this,” said Kent,
who played in all three levels with the WAA.
Like Trentham, the Oilers had their own injuries
to deal with. Wells didn’t play one second in the
finals after sustaining an upper-body injury dur-
ing Game 6 of their semifinal win over the Brooks
Bandits.
Gordon was healthy, though, and recorded a
pair of assists in the finals, to give him two goals
and six points in 15 playoff games during his
19-year-old season.
Even though Wells and Gordon are on the other
side of the ice now, Trentham is still friendly with
his former Bisons teammates.
“I still talk to those guys lots. It sucked that
Blake was injured, but Kyle and I would talk all
the time,” said Trentham. “I would tell him stuff
like I hope he scores a hat trick, but his team still
loses 4-3 in the end.”
The Saints now advance to the Doyle Cup to
take on the B.C. Hockey League champion, the
Wenatchee Wild, for the rights to advance to the
RBC Cup.
“Wenatchee is a really good team and we are
going to have our hands full,” said Kent. “But we
are going to enjoy this one tonight and then get
ready for them, whenever the series starts.”
The series gets underway April 27 at the Town
Toyota Center in Wenatchee, Wash., before return-
ing to Grant Fuhr Arena May 1 for Game 3.
Trentham is most likely sidelined to start the se-
ries but isn’t ruling out a comeback at some point
this series.
“Having to watch the past couple of games
sucked. Now I know what my mom went through
during those playoff games in Strathmore,” said
Trentham. “I’m not sure when I’ll be good to go,
but I’m a hockey player, so I’ll do everything I can
to get back out there as soon as possible.”

Former Strathmore players earn KIJHL title
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
Winning a championship in your final year of eligibility,
regardless of the sport or the level, is the hardest thing to do.
For local kid James Farmer and former UFA Bison Cody
Campbell, it was a storybook ending to their junior hockey
career.
Three years ago, Farmer left the Wheatland Athletic As-
sociation midget Chiefs for the Kimberley Dynamiters of the
Kootenay International Junior B Hockey League.
The Dynamiters reached the KIJHL finals but were han-
dled fairly easy by the eventual Keystone Cup champion 100
Mile House Wranglers.
Last season, Farmer was joined by former Bison Matthew
Davies and Campbell for another lengthy playoff drive, but
again came up short.
A younger team at the time, the Dynamiters ran into the
powerhouse Beaver Valley Nitehawks, losing in Game 5 of
the best-of-five KIJHL semifinals.
“We were the underdogs last year. Last year was a difficult
defeat and we thought we should have been in the champi-
onship. We spent all offseason thinking about it and learned
from our mistakes,” said Davies, who registered nine points
in 34 games for the Bisons in the 2015-16 season.
Running away with the regular season title with a 38-7-1-1
record, this time it was the Dynamiters turn as the top dog
in the playoff bracket.
The Dynamiters derailed the competition through the first
two rounds, knocking out the rival Fernie Ghostriders and
Columbia Valley Rockies both in five games.
For the first time in the postseason, adversity struck the
Strathmore crew in the conference final. The Dynamiters bat-
tled back from trailing 2-1 in the series but were locked into
an overtime duel with the Neil Murdoch division-winning
Nelson Leafs.
Campbell, who was fresh off recording his best statistical
season with a 25-7-1-0 record with a 2.17 goals-against aver-
age and a .924 save percentage, was faced with his biggest
test of the season.
“There was about five seconds left in the first overtime and
one of our defencemen fell on the puck in my crease,” said
Campbell. “The ref thought he put his hand over the puck
and awarded the Leafs a penalty shot. Their guy came in,
shot and I was lucky enough to get a piece of it.”
Campbell’s brilliance led the Dynamiters to a Game 6 win
and has also earned him a ticket to University of Central
Oklahoma to play for the Broncos.
Taking on the Doug Birks Division-winning Revelstoke
Grizzlies in the final, the Dynamiters took a 2-0 series lead
after an overtime win and a 5-1 victory on home ice.
The Grizzlies protected their home court with a pair of
wins at the Revelstoke Forum. Returning to the Kimberley
Civic Centre for Game 5 on April 5, the Dynamiters stepped
on the gas and pulled away from the Grizzlies.
Campbell blanked the Grizzlies 5-0 in Game 5 and Farmer
netted the insurance marker in a 5-3 championship-clinching
win with two minutes remaining in regulation.
“Revelstoke was putting the pressure on us pretty good,”
said Farmer. “One of our guys blocked a shot, I leaked out
and my teammate hit me with the pass on a partial break. I
High school badminton season in full swing
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
Both high school badminton programs are off to a great
start following the county meet last weekend at the Strath-
more High School.
The larger of the two schools, the Strathmore High School,
will send a staggering 31 players – three more than last year
– to the 3A South Central zone tourney this weekend in
Brooks.
The number might seem like a lot compared to Holy Cross
Collegiate, but according to Spartans Head Coach Kenton
Zandee, he doesn’t begin to predict anything until he sees
his team attempt to defend their banner.
“A more telling result will be how these players do at
the zone competition,” said Zandee. “I’m pleased with how
many players advanced, but we could have conceivably had
more players advance. We have several players who qualified
for zones with conflicting sport schedules. This hurts (our)
chances of claiming another zone title.”
Some of the key returning names are Julia Vermeeren, who
competed in girls’ junior singles at provincials last year, while
the team of Luka Nizetic and Ryan Edwards look to improve
on their fourth place showing at last year’s provincial meet.
The Spartans will be sending 12 doubles teams across
both genders and in the junior, intermediate and senior age
groups, while sending seven to compete in the singles.

was able to sneak it past their goalie to basically clinch the
championship. It was a pretty amazing feeling.”
Once the final horn sounded, the Dynamiters spent over
an hour on the ice celebrating with the league trophy, as
players hoisted it, and hugged teammates, their coaches and
any family and friends who were in attendance.
But their journey wasn’t done there.
Winning the KIJHL sent the Dynamiters into the Cyclone
Taylor Cup for the second time in franchise history, as they
battled the other Junior B champions from B.C.
“We had high hopes entering provincials,” said Farmer.
“We thought we were the best team there, but it just didn’t
go our way.”
The Dynamiters got blanked 3-0 by the Delta Ice Hawks
in the opener April 12, bounced back with a 6-1 win over
the eventual champion Richmond Sockeyes, but a 9-0 shell-
ing by the Campbell River Storm kept them out of the gold
medal game.
“It’s tough going up against teams you don’t know. There
are no rivalries, so there’s no grit and it’s a little more dif-
ficult to get up for those games compared to our playoff
run,” said Campbell, a De Winton product, who boasted a
1.77 goals-against and a .934 save percentage in 21 playoff
games.
The Strathmore contingent went out in style, though. Led
by Farmer’s hat trick, they cranked the Storm 7-1 April 15 at
Minoru Arena in Richmond, B.C.
“I played with and against both Cody and James at differ-
ent times growing up,” said Davies, a Calgary product, who
scored five goals and added 26 points in 22 playoff games.
“Having all of us play together for two years made it extra
special to win the way we did.”
Davies is eligible to return next year if he chooses. But
Campbell will be off at college and Farmer has aged out of
junior hockey. The Strathmore product has options to weigh
this summer about post-secondary hockey, but for the time
being, he is going to enjoy the glow of going out on top.
Should any Spartan tear it up in zones, they will advance
to the provincial meet in two weeks in Grimshaw.
The HCC Hawks also turned in a great showing at coun-
ties April 18 at the SHS gym. Competing in the 2A level, the
Hawks will be sending six players to Brooks to bring home
the zone banner this weekend.
“We had a very strong group graduate our program last
year, so we weren’t sure how we were going to do in coun-
ties, but it turned out great,” said Hawks Head Coach Dan
Patterson. “There were a couple upsets, but overall, we are
very happy with the results we were able to achieve.”
Kyle Chavante was the only Hawk to pull a gold. He won
the senior boys singles in convincing fashion, with a 2-0 (21-
9, 21-8) decision.
The Hawks received silver medals from three different
teams competing in the intermediate division.
Ryan Orford and Kadin Wilson lost their gold medal match
in three sets 2-1 (17-21, 21-17, 15-21). The mixed team of
Colby Tanton and Bree Cockx also fell 2-1 (21-19, 15-21, 14-
21). In the other boys singles final, Ben Kruse captured silver
after he lost 2-0 (18-21, 12-21).
“Overall, it was a great experience for our kids. Now, hope-
fully we play well at zones and send some kids to provin-
cials,” said Patterson.
The Top 2 in each age and gender division qualify for
provincials. Patterson and the Hawks will be looking to send
their first athletes to the badminton provincials in two years.

Driving Miss Daisy a journey of friendship He was born in Yorkton, Saskatchewan on

LAUREEN F. GUENTHER
Times Contributor
Driving Miss Daisy opened at Rose-
bud Theatre April 6, the inaugural show
of the theatre’s 35th season.
Miss Daisy, played by Judith Buchan,
is an aging Jewish widow who doesn’t
want to admit she’s too old to drive.
And she definitely doesn’t want people
to think she’s rich enough to have a
driver. Over her protests, her son Boo-
lie, played by Paul F. Muir, hires a driver
named Hoke.
This is 1948, and they live in the
southern United States, but it does not
bother Miss Daisy that Hoke, played by
Tom Pickett, is African-American. She
declares she’s never been prejudiced.
She does, however, have clear and nar-
row expectations of “those people.”
Miss Daisy is slow to soften, but Hoke
is wise and patient. And 25 years later,
when Miss Daisy is elderly enough to
need much more than a driver, Hoke is
still there.
Buchan, Muir and Pickett give skilled
performances, and I had to remind my-
self that Miss Daisy, Boolie and Hoke
aren’t real people. Yet maybe they are
– because playwright Alfred Uhry has
conveyed keen observations of how
people relate to each other.
He’s captured in Miss Daisy the vul-
nerability and determined indepen-
dence we often see in those who need
help. In Boolie, we see the love and
frustration that often co-exist in those
who try to give it.
He also conveyed the preciousness
of each human being, including illiter-
ate Hoke, whose society offers him few
rights and little respect, and grouchy
Miss Daisy, who’s long on pride and
short on kindness.
Driving Miss Daisy moved me to tears
more than once, but I also laughed with
the rest of the audience all the way
through the show.
One of the highlights of the produc-
tion is Matthew B. Golden’s Foley sound
design. More than once, I looked for a
barking dog that wasn’t there. And on
each drive Miss Daisy takes with Hoke,
I heard the car door slam and felt the
bump at the end of the driveway.
After the show, I asked Golden about
his process. This production, he said,
has over 100 sound cues. Their design
was “part planning, part creative input
from discovery and part just accident.”
One happy accident was in the open-
ing scene, where Miss Daisy has just
crashed her car.
“The end of that crash has a blink-
er, kind of ba-kum, ba-kum, ba-kum,”
Golden said. “(Director Morris Ertman)
loved that, because he said it sounds
like a clock. I was thinking of putting a
clock in that next scene, so we (could)
just transition the blinker into the clock.
And the clock is a metaphor for the be-
ginning of the end … a metaphor for
life.”
Nov. 23, 1945, but moved to Calgary in the
early 1970’s. He also lived a number of years
in Strathmore, before moving back to Calgary
in the early part of this decade.
Immediate and extended family and friends
attended a memorial that was held on
April 14 at the Local 87 Metis Hall, where
Joseph had been a member and was
active in the association.
He loved his children, beautiful women, cars
and music. He was greatly loved by everyone
he met, for his bright teasing spirit and loving
heart. He will be missed.

Rosebud dance students perform in blacklight

LAUREEN F. GUENTHER
Times Contributor
Rosebud School of the Arts students, under the direction
of Deanne Bertsch, will perform an original blacklight dance
show called Follow the Sun, May 3-5, in Rosebud.
The entire play will be performed in blacklight, highlight-
ing performers’ bodies painted in tribal patterns, along with
their hands, masks, puppet masks and cardboard animals.
“Follow the Sun is about our planet Earth … it’s our take
on the creation story,” said cast member and co-creator Ra-
chel Franson, first-year student at Rosebud School of the Arts
(RSA).
The show centres on Earth Girl, performed by a child guest
wrote stories about Earth and created solo dances based on
Rudd’s music. Each of those solo dances became a part of the
production.
“Rebecca wrote a poem, a really beautiful poem,” Franson
said. “It’s gorgeous imagery.”
Hellekson performs that poem as the show’s narration.
Franson, dancing the part of Europe, relishes her role as
villain.
“I have this whole moment of glory in my solo dance where
I take control of Earth,” Franson said. “Then during Rebecca’s
solo dance, I’m kind of there in the background, hovering
over her with my big mask. We fight over her for quite a
