Commons will make
parks and pathways
more accessible
CHRISTINE FOSHAUG
Times Contributor
Work is underway on a new pedestrian
bridge along Thomas Drive, the first step in the
Strathmore Commons project.
The $230,000 bridge, which was allocated in
the capital budget, will cross the Western Irriga-
tion District (WID) canal across from Centennial
Drive, giving residents of Thorncliffe and Brent-
wood easier access to the town’s 50-kilometre
pathway system.
The Strathmore Commons project was ap-
proved at the same time as the new municipal
building. By linking Gray’s Park, Lambert Park
and Kinsmen Park, and expanding existing park
spaces, it will connect communities to the town’s
park system and provide a framework for future
expansion.
“Results of the Citizen Satisfaction Survey
showed how important parks and pathways
are to residents, with accessibility being a key
issue,” said Town of Strathmore communica-
tions strategist Geoff Person. “The goal of the
Strathmore Commons project is to unify the
town’s green spaces, making them more accessi-
ble. Strathmore is like a town inside a park, and
the green space is valuable to both residents and
visitors.”
PCL Construction has begun the building
process, and all efforts will be made to cause
minimal impact to local residents. For the next
few months, there will be a slight detour of the
Thomas Drive pedestrian pathway. Abutments
will be completed in January, and the bridge
will be fabricated off-site in February. In March,
the bridge will be placed, with finishing touches
being completed in the spring.
Since announcing the Strathmore Commons Crashing the net
project on the Town of Strathmore website and Wheatland Braves forward Phoenix Flett crashes the Taber Golden Suns net looking for a
Facebook page, Person said there has been some goal during SCAHL peewee action on Jan. 11 at the Strathmore Family Centre. The local

“The pedestrian bridge will have a lifespan of Black the following day. The Braves will now hit the road on Jan. 18 to take on the Foothills
50 years,” he noted, “so it’s a legacy project for Bisons, before returning home on Jan. 19 (1:30 p.m.) to take on the Bow Valley Timber-

After a second successful election for the MP of Bow River, MAILING ADDRESS:
Martin Shields has been keeping an eye on Strathmore and PO Box 2527,
Wheatland County for a few years now. While there are still

some issues being faced in the area, there’s also some good
news.

“We had a bit of a mixed outcome for the agricultural sec- Tuesday-Thursday

around exports to China and India. Between 2014 and 2018, Chestermere.Strathmore@
exports of Alberta canola more than doubled – from $1.3 bil- assembly.ab.ca
lion to $2.6 billion. Canadian producers, though, have been
caught in the crosshairs of political disputes between China
and the U.S., and Canada’s role between them.
“China also has an issue with pork and swine fever, and
we have so much pork available here so that is a crucial op-
portunity for us as well,” he said.
India still has tariffs on Canadian pulses but in the first
nine months of 2019 the country imported just over a half
million tonnes of Canadian lentils and almost as much in
yellow peas. Shields said it’s an area of major importance for
producers in Wheatland County and he is hopeful there is
some movement on reducing those barriers.
The Trans Mountain pipeline expansion received the go-
ahead in December and Shields is hopeful that its construc-
tion is a sign of things to come for all constituencies in the
province. “It’s a great advantage to Albertans if we can get
our product to tidewater,” he said.
One of the issues Shields had identified prior to the Octo-
ber election was keeping abreast of the reports and potential
plans to deal with invasive species in the shared water sys-
tems between Alberta and the United States.
“I have met with the Western Irrigation District and I will
be attending the conference at the end of February. The WID
is concerned about the costs associated with monitoring, of
course. I’ve talked with local UCP MLAs about the impor-
tance of our irrigation system and taking a strong stance on
access at border points,” he said.
Cooperation will be required between multiple jurisdic-
tions on monitoring, testing and, potentially, removal. Pre-
vention is much less expensive but still has a cost require-
ment that would be borne by each jurisdiction. He said the Strathmore RCMP are reminding

RSA student to perform true story of leper priest

LAUREEN F. GUENTHER
Times Contributor
Joel Braun, a graduating student at Rosebud
School of the Arts, will perform Damien, a one-
man play by Aldyth Morris and directed by David
Snider, from Jan. 24 to 26 in Rosebud’s Akokini-
skway Gallery.
Damien is the true story of Father Damien De
Veuster of Belgium, a missionary who went to the
Hawaiian Islands in 1864, just as leprosy (now
called Hansen’s disease) was spreading through-
out the islands.
The Hawaiian government responded to the
outbreak by sending people who contracted the
disease to a remote island, quarantining them
with minimal help and resources.
In 1873, Father Damien offered to live among
them and be their priest.
“He soon realized they needed much more than
a priest and he ended up leading the community
in many ways,” Braun said. Father Damien built
shelters and infrastructure. He acted as a doctor
and instituted civic order. He advocated with gov-
ernment authorities on behalf of the residents.
Eleven years after he began serving his people,
Father Damien contracted leprosy. He died among
them in 1899. In 2009, the Catholic Church de-
clared Father Damien a saint. audience to think about what people or groups they may

Five cousins
set to play
SPORTS
at Alberta
Winter Games
ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter

Five cousins from Strathmore will be debuting their

volleyball skills at the 2020 Alberta Winter Games this
coming February in Airdrie.
Out of the 12 kids from Zone 2 in Alberta chosen
to play on the 15U team, five of them are from Strath-
more.
Joshua Dirks (#3), Matthew Dirks (#6), Isaac Dirks
(#7), Asher Rilling (#5) and Jared Rilling (#8) are
all 13- and 14-year-old siblings/cousins who attend
schools in Strathmore.
The five have all been playing volleyball for many
years with both school teams and the Strathmore Vol-
leyball Club (SVC). They all follow in their parents’
footsteps, all of whom played high school or college
volleyball, or beach volleyball.
“I like playing with my family and my cousins, it’s
super fun,” said Matthew Dirks, who has overcome
some challenges in his volleyball career to date – he
was off his leg for a long time following two surgeries
on his knee after being diagnosed with osteochondri-
tis dissecans.
Although they may have all been raised together
playing the game, each player has developed their
own unique set of skills that they utilize to make a
well-rounded team.
Asher prefers to play setter so he can always be in
the play, Matthew likes to play right side of power so
he can hit the ball, Isaac likes hitting the ball in any

Local NRL player debuts at worlds, coaches youth

ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
After making her debut last year
playing on the Junior National Ringette
team and playing in and winning at
worlds, one local athlete is using her
experience to not only forward her am-
bitions in ringette, but also to coach
younger players.
Nineteen-year-old Ann Sauve grew
up in Strathmore and has played for-
ward in ringette for the past 15 years.
She was scouted by the worlds team at
both the 2019 Canada Winter Games
and the 2019 Canadian Ringette Cham-
pionships. She was then asked to at-
tend main camp held in Ottawa in May
2019 where she tried out and was suc-
cessfully selected to play on the team.
“I love the competition, the speed
and the camaraderie,” said Sauve. “It is
an environment that supports females
and builds confidence at any age. Not
only do I love playing, but it has also
given me great skills to set me up for
success in my life.”
Sauve also plays in the National Rin-
gette League (NRL) for the Calgary Rath
as a first-year player.
During the worlds competition in
Burnaby, B.C. in November 2019,
Sauve and her Team Canada teammates
played one exhibition game and beat
powerhouse Finland in two best-of-
three games.
“Wearing a jersey that represented
my country, while also having my fam-
ily in the stands meant so much; put-
ting in the hard work and knowing that
all of their support is the reason I got to
this moment is something I will never
forget,” said Sauve, who is ageing out of
the junior league this year. She added
she will never forget the opportunity
she had to “play at the highest level of
a sport I love, and it resulting in a gold
medal is very rewarding and unforget-
table.”
The University of Calgary student is
currently training and preparing for
nationals with her NRL team. Nationals Ann Sauve (r) won gold at worlds with the Junior
