The Strathmore RCMP have added a new tool in its arsenal in the war against drugs. Thanks to an initiative by Const. Michael C. Fulton of the detachments Crime Reduction Unit, the Strathmore RCMP now has a Drug Tip Line. Launched on April 24, the Drug Tip Line is an anonymous service for callers to leave voice messages with any information they have about drugs and drugrelated crimes. Its like Crime Stoppers but the tips go straight to the investigators, said Fulton. We want to be proactive, not reactive, in the war against drugs. Const. Fulton hopes the new Drug Tip Line will make people more comfortable about helping the RCMP in the fight against drugs and drug trafficking. All tips to the Drug Line will be investigated, and the information will be used for both current and future drug related cases. Airdrie is the only other city in the RCMP Calgary hub that has such a Crime Reduction Unit. Airdrie RCMP Const. Robert Frizzell said the Airdrie Drug Tip Line, which launched six months ago, has had great success. Drug traffic information has a short shelf life. With the Drug Tip Line, we can expedite our response. We can get search warrants and do surveillance a lot quicker, said Frizzell. The number of tips to the Airdrie Drug Tip Line is difficult to estimate as some tips come from repeat callers. While some callers are repeat anonymous informants, said Frizzell, a significant number of others volunteer to form partnerships with the RCMP. In that case, they provide multiple pieces of information over a longer period of time. Strathmore is on a drug pipeline that probably originates in Calgary, said Const. Fulton. The major suppliers of drugs are usually from the big towns. Continued on Page 2

Do you rent out your cottage?
If you have a cottage then you already know you have special insurance needs. Did you know that renting out your cottage needs to be Heather Roberts discussed with your broker? CAIB, CPIB, CSP The insurance for a H Home cottage is not like the house you have in town. Cottages H FARm are used for certain periods H AuTo of the year. There are H GRouP requirements on how often PRoGRAmS you need to go to the cottage and check that all is okay. H CommeRCIAl Pricing is different than H ReCReATIon a homeowners and there will be restrictions on what H lIFe claims will be paid. Most of H TRAvel the insurance companies Take ACTION will not pay a claim for damage done by a renter.

Your cottage is important to you. Do you know what type of coverage you have? Talk to your broker and be sure you know what will happen when something does go wrong.

rest of the damage. Help and support have been coming in from all over, and here in Strathmore people are encouraged to help out as well. The news hit a little close to home for former teacher Treena Wade. Wade has a number of friends who are teachers that have worked at the school, including one who is a former principal of the school. Ive worked in the education field for a number of years, so obviously I know how much of a need there is and what is required in the daily operation of a classroom. It was a relatively simple thing that a person could do in order to help out, said Wade. Wade has spoken to the King Eddy and Strathmore Pawn and Collectables to be locations where people can donate items for the school. Beagle said some of the specific items the schools are looking for now are bookshelves and mini filing cabinets. They are also looking for chairs for the reading centres, and area rugs in good condition, which can be used for Grades 1-4 students. Educational games and mini white boards, like the ones that can be bought at the dollar store are other items needed, and of course books.
Always books, trying to fill up a whole library again in a school on top of classroom libraries that most teachers had anywhere up to 500 different books in their classrooms for kids to pull from, because we have quite an extensive reading program, said Beagle. Honestly the private ECS is one that could really use donations as well of gently used toys, little play centres and things like that. They could sure use that because they have lost everything inside their kindergarten. People have been amazing, all the way from Regina to Calgary to Medicine Hat kinds of three points and everything in the middle. Weve gotten lots of binders and pens and pencils for the kids. Theyre established again which is wonderful. The Calgary Catholic School Board donated six portable trailers to Arrowwood, with the first one arriving May 1. Within the next three weeks the students should be moving into the portable classrooms. Its expected that it may take until Nov. 1 before the students can more into the new building. A 20-year-old Siksika man has been arrested and is accused of setting a number of fires in the Village of Arrowwood.

ficult for the board. He reminded members why they decided to be involved with firefighting and asked that they retain that focus. Personality problems are not new to any workplace. Where there are different people there are always differing opinions and conflicts to deal with. In a study done by Josephine Pizzino (2002), she showed that 69 per cent of Canadians had experienced verbal aggression in the workplace. It is aggravated by high stress levels, feelings of unfair treatment, financial pressures and budget cuts, downsizing and pressures for greater productivity. It leads to low morale and a disorganized viability. A report by Coombs and Halladay done in 2004 found that unaddressed aggressive communication in the workplace often leads to more serious forms of aggression. Delgado said it was time to deal with the problem. The third problem was getting board members out to meetings. Hanson suggested that in his opinion, the service had become too big for the association to run. The board members are also volunteers and have to be rural ratepayers;

Early childhood development is everyones business, and Strathmore and area took its first steps to make use of the findings of an Alberta Educationfunded program tracking the development of children aged 0-5 years. Approximately 20 parents, community members, childhood service providers and teachers met for a presentation by Donna Cushman, the southern Alberta Community Development Coordinator for the Early Child Development Mapping Project Alberta (ECMap) at the Civic Centre Tuesday, April 24.
ECMap collected the results of Early Development Instrument (EDI) assessments done by Golden Hills and Christ the Redeemer School Division Kindergarten teachers of their students, as well as socio-economic information from census data and inventories of resources for services, programs and facilities available for families with young children. According to the findings across the province, 25 per cent of the children assessed have great difficulty in at least one developmental area, said Cushman. The five developmental areas assessed include physical health and wellbeing, social competence, emo-
tional maturity, language and thinking skills, and communication skills and general knowledge. The goal of the project is to identify what areas children are having difficulty in and then find ways to address and if possible alleviate those challenges for the children and their families. In addition to explaining the program, the meeting established a coalition, which can then access the data compiled by the ECMap. The coalition will be divided into two sub-communities: one made up of Strathmore, Carseland, Gleichen and Cluny, and the other comprising Rockyford, Standard, and Hussar.

On February 16, 2012, our Conservative Government introduced Bill C-31, the Protecting Canadas Immigration System Act. Bill C-31 will restore integrity to our asylum system by making Canadas refugee determination process faster and fairer, resulting in faster protection for legitimate refugees and faster removal for bogus claimants. Canada has a well-deserved international reputation for having the most generous and fair immigration system in the world. Canada provides protection to more than one in 10 refugees
resettled each year worldwide, more than any other developed country in the world. But, the fact is that Canadas asylum system is vulnerable to abuse. There are countless stories in the media on an almost daily basis of bogus refugees, serious criminals, and those who have committed crimes against humanity trying to take advantage of Canadas generous asylum system. This abuse wastes limited resources on bogus claims while legitimate refugees have to wait in the queue behind them. It also undermines public confidence in our immigration system. Canadians are generous and welcoming, but we have no tolerance for
those who refuse to play by the rules and abuse our generosity. The current flawed refugee system has made Canada a target for those who are all too happy to take advantage of us. As a result, too many taxpayer dollars are being spent on people who are not fleeing genuine persecution, but seek to exploit Canadas generous asylum system to receive lucrative taxpayer-funded health care, welfare, and other social benefits. The facts speak for themselves. For example, in 2011, Canada received more refugee claims from the democratic and human rights-respecting countries of the European Union, than from Africa or Asia. In fact, last year alone, a quar-
ter of all refugee claims were made by European Union nationals. Once these bogus claimants land in Canada, most of them are eligible for a generous range of taxpayer-funded social services and benefits within days of arrival. They can then receive benefits for years as they wait for their refugee claims to be heard under the current slow system. Virtually all of the refugee claims by Europeans are eventually withdrawn, abandoned or rejected. In fact, in many cases, the refugee claimants themselves eventually decide to return to their country of alleged persecution. Continued on Page 9
Canadians are living longer and costs for the Old Age Security (OAS) are rising. On April 1, 2023 the Government of Canada plans to start raising the age of eligibility for OAS and the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) from 65 to 67.*
Starting in July 2013, Canadians who are eligible for, but not yet receiving OAS will have the flexibility to delay receiving it in exchange for a higher monthly amount at a later date.
The number of working-age Canadians per senior is decreasing, placing additional pressure on the OAS program.

Letters to the editor
that has the power through legislation to share water in the region. If you need water or expect to discard water within the boundaries of the WID, you better go talk to them first. For my part, Ive watched the WID make far greater strides toward working with the greater regions environmental protection organizations and provincial and federal governments than anyone else in Wheatland County. It is the one organization that focuses on environmental protection and enhancement with large successes realized through multi-stakeholder projects. It is also a generous supporter of environmental initiatives within its boundaries. Dont get me wrong; it is in the best interests of the WID to be a force of environmental protection and enhancement. The only way the WID will survive is if the Bow River survives and the only way that can happen is through making changes to the way humans treat the river. But, as far as Im concerned, why the WID is adamant about protecting our river system is irrelevant as long as they accomplish that goal. Now that I no longer live or work in the region, I can say this, It is a very foolish attitude that exists in the minds of municipal leaders within the boundaries of any irrigation district if they do not have a firm handle on the activities, policies and projects of their irrigation district. You are shooting yourself in the foot. Claudette Lacombe Currently of no fixed address and travelling, but recently of Rockyford

I would like to thank everyone who voted for me and for the Wildrose Party in the recent provincial election. I would also like to recognize the other candidates who ran in this constituency. Win or lose, they represent the essence of our democratic process. My role as your new MLA means that I will work on everyones behalf, whether you voted for me or not. Please feel free to contact me as needed, as I want to get to know you and to understand the message you want me to take to Edmonton. I appreciate it was a good news / bad news story from a Wildrose perspective. There are a number of lessons to be learned and we as a Party will continue to believe in grassroots democracy and that wont change. My success comes from hard work and a sincere desire to be the best MLA the Strathmore-Brooks Constituency has ever had. Without the team of people who worked tirelessly on my/ our behalf, I am sure the outcome could have been different. The major issues, which you told me, are important focus on Health Care, Seniors Care, Education, Property Rights, Energy, Municipal Affairs and Infrastructure. If you feel I have missed what is important to you, please email or phone me. I will be sure to share this with the Wildrose Caucus when we meet in Edmonton. I am excited because the next four years will only make me and the Party stronger, wiser and better able to listen and communicate in the Legislature what is important to you and to all Albertans.

In 1918, Georges father emigrated from England to Verdun, Manitoba. It was there that they purchased land from Soldiers Settlement. George was born in 1939, and went to school in Manitoba. Alices grandfather George Rouse came to Canada by ship from England in 1899, and settled in Bradwardina, Manitoba where Alice was born at the home farm. She says no one went to hospital in those days for childbirth. Her grandfather was well known in the Manchester area of England, as a cabinet and coffin maker. George and Alice met on a blind date, arranged by her cousin. They were
married in 1961, and moved to Calgary in 1966. As you can, see they celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary in 2011. At this time, the pipeline business was just starting, and George got a job with Hunset Pipeline in Verdun. In 1966, the pipeline business was starting in Alberta, so George transferred here, and continued to work for Hunset. In the late 1960s both George and Alice learned to fly, and started Booth Construction Ltd in 1969. George went on to obtain a Commercial Pilots Licence. This permitted them to fly to any location where their employees were working. Their construction company used heavy duty earth moving equipment, for developers, munici-
palities, farming and ranching. A major project was the extension of the long runway at Calgary International Airport, Runway 16/34, and construction of Hwy 1 to Banff, along with many other highways. In 1979, they purchased the old Beck Farm, located between Cluny and Chancellor, just south of Hwy 561. Their original intention was to move their business from Calgary to the farm, but no one had ever heard of running a home-based business at that time. So, they had to keep an office open in Calgary. Their farm land included about 50 years worth of old farm equipment, a very old barn and an 1800s homestead house. When the CPR was selling farmland in the mid-1800s, to prospective immigrants from Denmark,
France and Germany, every quarter section included a house and barn. After moving George and Alice built their house, upgraded the barn and shop, built a runway as well as three hangars to provide shelter for their planes. In the late 1990s they tried their hands at gold mining in the Cariboo, before taking up full residence at their farm. Booth Construction Ltd was sold in 2004, just before George had his stroke in 2006, which ended their travelling days. Looking back over their aviation life, few people realize George and Alice were founding members of Country Club of The Air in Airdrie. This included introducing students of Airdrie Elementary & Junior High Schools to flying. Continued on Page 21

RCMP Briefs
Arson chArges relAting to fires in Arrowwood A 20-year-old male is currently in RCMP custody following a series of building and grass fires that occurred in the town of Arrowwood late Friday night. At about 11:30 p.m., on April 20, Gleichen RCMP responded to an intrusion alarm at the Arrowwood School. Upon arrival the responding members were met with smoke and fire coming from the structure. Local volunteer fire department responded along with units from Milo and Siksika Nation to fight the blaze. A short time later another fire was located by RCMP members a few blocks away in a park within the Town of Arrowwood. A few moments after that, another fire was located at the bulk fuel station also located within the Town of Arrowwood. Thanks to the fast response of the responding fire departments, these fires were brought under control quickly. The fires were investigated by Provincial Fire investigators along with Gleichen RCMP. As a result of the investigation, RCMP have charged Thereon Majoras of Siksika Nation with the following offences; five counts of arson to property, two counts of mischief over $5,000, two counts of mischief under $5,000 and three counts of breaching an Undertaking (He was released by a Justice of the Peace with conditions from an incident in November) Damage is estimated in excess of $4 million dollars. No one was injured as a result of the fires. house fire on willowmere wAy On April 28, just before 5 a.m., Chestermere RCMP members along with the Chestermere Fire Department responded to a house fire at a residence located on Willowmere Way in Chestermere. Upon arrival no flames were noted. The Chestermere Fire Department confirmed the residents of the house had already exited the dwelling with no one sustaining injuries. It was learned from the owner of the residence that the occupants were asleep when one resident was woken up by a sound of a rear window cracking. Upon going onto the rear balcony this occupant saw a fire outside of the residence through a reflection from a neighbors window. All occupants of the dwelling were then awoke and exited the residence. This included a man, wife, their two children and his parents. The Chestermere Fire Department was then called by the residents. The occupants put out most of the fire using their garden hose before the arrival of the fire department. The residents found shelter with their neighbors while their house was being aired out of any smoke by the fire department. The fire damage was minimal and limited to the back of the residence. The occupants were able to eventually return and safely occupy their home. The rear of this residence borders a school yard. Upon examining the scene with the fire department it was determined the cause of this fire is arson. If anyone has any information in this crime or any other please contact the Chestermere RCMP at (403) 204-8777 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477 or through the internet at www.tipsubmit.com. Crime stoppers will pay cash rewards up to $2000 for information that leads to an arrest, the recovery of stolen property or seizure of illegal drugs. Crime Stoppers does not subscribe to call display and the identity of the caller will remain anonymous.

Kerry malakoff of Landscape Plus shows off her impressive water feature outside her home. it is just an example of the dynamic work malakoff has in store for potential customers.
www.
StrathmoreTimes.com
I get great satisfaction from completing a yard and handing it over to the homeowner to maintain it, Malakoff said. She finds that it is beneficial for homeowners to make a plan for their yard. I definitely agree with pre-planning and having a landscape plan and knowing about the plant material being used, said Malakoff. Malakoff does consulting work, so if the homeowner just wants to develop a plan, she can help with that as well. Usually plans can be completed in a two week span, depending on the weather. However, sometimes the work needs to be phased over several years. Some of the challenges that gardeners have in this area are the chinook winds and water-related issues. Malakoff said that xeroscaped yards are becoming more popular. She encourages people to amend Strathmore soil, as it is sandy. She says compost or manure can be added to help the soil retain water. Contouring the yard and placing bark-topping can also help keep the water close to the plants. She says anytime she plants trees and plants, it supports a green environment and it is good for our health. She keeps her chemical use to a minimum. My aim is to give them a yard they can enjoy, said Malakoff. She is looking forward to working on new developments and challenges her customers bring her. I want to thank the community for allowing me to beautify the area and thank all of my customers and staff, said Malakoff. If readers want to contact Landscape Plus they can call 403 934-4421 or email landscapeplus1@yahoo.ca to arrange an appointment.

The eight-week inline hockey season started with an exposure camp on April 29.
The Wheatland Wildfire Community Club basketball program is now well into its third year.
The program turnout has been better than expected. We have a great group of kids that show a lot of potential. Its exciting to be part of a program that will go a long way to putting Strathmore on the basketball map and hopefully generate successful teams and players in the near future, said YellowHorn. She continued to say that, basketball is a growing sport with more and more of our Canadian athletes moving on past high school to play at the college/university level as well as receiving scholarships to play in the United States. It is never too late to take up the sport. I have seen kids who have started playing in Grade 11 move on to receive full scholarships to play at the college/university level. For the YellowHorn family, basketball has been a very big part of their lives and they are very happy to have the opportunity to pass on what they have learned through the Wildfire program. Even if basketball is not your end goal, it is a great sport which develops a well-rounded athlete. You develop speed, strength, jumping ability, coordination/ hand eye coordination, said YellowHorn. Their hope is to develop the boys into quality players on the basketball court, but more importantly to provide a positive environment that shows the right attitude and work ethic needed to succeed both on and off the court. There are so many life lessons that can be taught through the game that we love so much. We are happy to pay it forward and hope that we can be a great influence, said YellowHorn. The kids that have signed up for Wildfire have an opportunity to work with amazing coaches and leaders who love the game. For more information about the program please go to their website (www.wildfireathletics.ca).

it was a busy week for Spartan rugby players. Both the boys (top) and girls (left) teams hosted home games on April 24 and 26.
Spartans Spartans split home games Spartans learned how to play the sport Jerry Flaws of Rugby. Girls Rugby Coach kick off
The Strathmore Spartans boys soccer team began their 2012 campaign with a home loss on April 25 at the high school. even though the Spartans were on the wrong end of the scoreboard, they are looking forward to a successful season of football.
Strathmore High had a busy start to their season this week playing two games. The girls played Foothills Composite from Okotoks first, and played well considering the lack of Rugby experience. The girls overcame bad positioning by working hard and hustling around the pitch. Foothills controlled the ball most of the first half but the Spartans were able to hold them off until the 20min. Foothills scored one more time in the first half and lead 12-0 going into half. The Spartans handled the ball way more in the 2nd half and their defense only gave up 10 points in the 2nd half. The Spartans were able to score late in the second half. The Spartans were pinned in the end so they gave it a kick to relieve the pressure. Jade Ballance, the kicker, was able to sprint down the field and steal the ball from Foothills and ran it in for a try. The game ended with a score of 22-5 but the inexperienced
In the second game of the season they played against Canmore, a new team in the Big Sky Rugby League this year. They were short a few players when they showed up so the teams agreed to play 10 a side Rugby which is a much quicker game. The Spartans started slow and could not find a way to bring down the opposition prop so they gave up a quick score, which was converted. After that the Spartans took control of the game. Jade Ballance led the charge with two quick tries. After that Carter Jones took over and scored another two tries. The team really worked hard at gaining possession of the ball and creating space for these players to go for a run. After an injury to the opposition, Strathmore lent them a player so the game could finish. The Spartans scored a few more times winning the game 42-12. The Spartans were able to give the new players plenty of playing time and exposure to the game.
