It was the Progressive Conservatives
against the Wildrose party one last time
as the Strathmore & District Chamber of
Commerce hosted an all-candidates fo-
rum April 10 at the Civic Centre.
Only the two high profle candidates
took part in the event, answering ques-
tions on political issues.
It has been my privilege to be your
MLA for the last four years and it has
been an exciting and dynamic time for
our province, said Progressive Conser-
vative MLA Arno Doerksen.
Jason Hale of the Wildrose party ex-
pressed his appreciation for the oppor-
tunity to speak to area residents.
Several topics were given to the can-
didates and they were given equal time
to respond.
On the question of property rights,
Doerksen advocated the current govern-
ments considered Albertans rights. The
existing bills implement provisions for
adequate consultation, a property rights
advocate, full compensation for all loss-
es and inconveniences and access to the
court system. He feels a lot of work has
gone into the process and to rescind the
bills would be a backward step.
Hale countered that no government or
court offcial should have the opportuni-
ty to trample individual and landowner
rights and the bills need repealed. Prop-
erty rights must be frst and foremost.
To address healthcare, the PCs would
continue to fund seniors accommoda-
tion initiatives, implement family care
clinics, complement existing services
and provide extended hours. There
would be support bringing young doc-
tors to rural areas by granting tuition
reductions over 10 years. Upgrades to
the Strathmore hospital however, would
not happen for at least two years. The
introduction of nurse practitioners and
expanded pharmacist duties with in-
creased training encouragements will
also make improvements.
Hale pointed out those were good
ideas. However, money should be used
to fully staff existing hospitals and fx
the current infrastructure before more
money is wasted by throwing dollars at
a broken system.

The hardworking ladies of the Carse-
land Public Beneft Club celebrated 100
years at an event held last weekend.
Alberta Lieutenant Governor Colonel
(Retd) Donald Ethell, and local MP Kev-
in Sorenson were among the dignitaries
who attended the event at the Carseland
Community Hall on April 14 to recog-
nize the efforts of the longtime service
club.
Formed in 1912 by 32 women, the
Carseland Public Beneft Club has acted
as a service group in various capacities
focused on Carseland and area.
The club began with many efforts re-
lated to WWI, such as collecting money
to send supplies to prisoners of war and
knitting socks, slings and bandages for
the Canadian Red Cross.
In the 1920s the club fundraised for
the frst playground at the local school
and lobbied for the school grounds to
be supervised at lunch hour. The play-
ground cost $123.45 and was installed
in 1924.
They continued wartime support ef-
forts during WWII, such as writing letters
to soldiers overseas and sending care
packages. They also cancelled lunch at
meetings and donated the tea and sugar,
which was rationed at the time.
This is what Alberta is all about, said
Lt. Gov. Ethell, who spoke at the event.
Theres nothing more special or heart-
warming than getting a package from
home.
The club was approached by various
service groups over the years, such as
the Red Cross and the Womens Insti-
tute, asking if the club would become a
local branch for their activities.
The Public Beneft Club always chose
to remain independent and keep a focus
on Carseland and area, said Teri McKin-
non, an organizer for the event, noting
that the club has always been fercely
independent of large service organiza-
tions but still aided important causes.
They were not bound by any other
authority than themselves, she said.
The club also lobbied government and
the rail service to ensure safer practices,
such as more road signage and safer
railway crossings.
Meanwhile, the club actively fund-
raised for local projects over the years,
such as numerous renovations for the
Carseland Community Hall. The club ca-
tered many events and held bingos to
raise funds.
Much of the history of the organiza-
tion can be found in Trails to the Bow
and More Trails to the Bow, two Carse-
land-area history books published by
the Public Beneft Club.
The planning for the centennial cel-
ebration began a year ago, according
to McKinnon. The club chose a military
theme to recognize the early efforts of
the club toward WWI and WWII.
Though men were allowed to join af-
ter a vote to open membership to any-
one in 1998, no man has joined the club
to date.
The Public Beneft Club is made up of
21 ladies from Carseland and area and
continues to donate thousands of dollars
to local causes, such as $8,000 toward a
new fre truck in 2002 and $40,000 to-
ward new playground equipment at the
Carseland School in 2008.

Are you adding a spoiler,
enhanced your engine or
raised the suspension? Your
ride is looking rather good and
sounding fne but youre not
done. When changing your
vehicle with after-market add-
ons you may no longer have the
right coverage.
An after-market anti-theft
device can reduce your
premiums. If you have spent
money on improving your
sound system then you could
see an increase because now
you have gone over the $1500
limit.
Be aware that certain
modifcations can put you into
a higher-risk position and some
will cost you more money on
your policy. Why?
* Youve now joined the theft
wish-list because your vehicle
looks so good.
* You can go a lot faster now which increases
the chance of having an accident.
* Youve increased the value of your vehicle.
As always we recommend that you take control
of your insurance. Before you start your project,
call your broker and fnd out what will be the
impact on your insurance. This will help prevent
an unpleasant surprise.
Last year at this time, Chris Geeraert may have
been using his shovel on snow. Last week, he
levelled a load of canola near Rockyford for
transport to an elevator in near-by Carseland.

is one of many frefghters who battled a
large grass fre in Wheatland County east
of Strathmore last month, which took three
departments to get it under control. Despite
continued advancements in frefghting tech-
nology, a simple broom is still one of the
most useful tools to extinguish small fres on
the perimeter.

Both Doerksen and Hale agreed on the quality of Al-
bertas education system and continued support for educa-
tion programs, but Hale encouraged that we allow parents
to make decisions and that the money follow the student.
Doerksen pointed out that the opportunities for expan-
sion in business, gas, electric and water-based industries
are increasing. With proper planning, Albertans need to
support industry and business initiatives, so they can com-
pete globally and attract investment. He stated that the
planning for electric was done and rates monitored. It
was determined that the east-west transmission lines were
needed and were given the go ahead. There are renewed
initiatives to store water. This will have a bearing on who
gets water and how. The PCs started this initiative prior to
the election and it will be a future issue.
Hale cautioned that the stakeholders want better consul-
tation and their rights protected. Hale indicated that gas
and electric price regulation would beneft all Albertans,
not just industry providers. There should be some benefts
to Albertans from shared resources.
Hale emphasized that water is our most important natu-
ral resource. The Wildrose party wants to make sure indi-
viduals and farmers have clean affordable water. Dams and
reservoirs will ensure that will happen. Communities will
work together to meet those needs.
As far as fnancing election promises, Doerksen expected
that oil and gas revenues and oil sand royalties combined
with tax revenues would provide funds. Encouraging in-
creased business investment and increasing population mi-
gration will all go to increasing revenue. He said that using
budget cuts to provide this fnancing was nave.
Hale suggested that programs can be fnanced through
broad-based tax incentives and balancing the budget with a
focus on public services. He offered a list of misspent fund-
ing that could change to balance the budget, such as two
billion dollar carbon capture fund, 30 per cent MLA wage
increases, AHS executive bonuses, oil sands documentary
and international travel expenses.
Both candidates ended the discussion with a summary
and encouraged people to get out and vote on April 23.
I look forward to that kind of leadership, Doerksen said
about Premier Alison Redford and the PC team. I think
that is what we need in this province. Its about having an
experienced team to continue to work with Albertans.
It makes sense that MLAs should fght for the issues
and concerns of their constituents. The major theme of this
election is accountability. Doing what is right is to rule,
not the exception. Ending the culture of entitlement, pro-
moting democracy and demanding ethical and accountable
governance, that is the Alberta way, said Hale about the
Wildrose directives.

Keeping the
community
connected
Shannon LeCLair
Time Reporter
A common complaint among youth
in smaller communities is that there
is nothing for them to do. Two years
ago the Strathmore-Wheatland Ad-
dictions Team (SWAT) discussed the
complaints, and brainstormed on how
to show the youth there is plenty to
do in town.
From there we thought about the
value of putting a pamphlet together
that would consist of various orga-
nizations that deal with youth, said
SWAT member Bob Sobol.
Basically we divided it into three
separate sections, one that dealt with
sports, one with clubs and associa-
tions and one with church-sponsored
activities, focusing only on the youth
of ages 12 to 17.
SWAT has decided to do a second
edition, an updated reprint of the
pamphlet.
The plan is to spend the next couple
of months updating the information
and inviting anyone who feels their
group may be relevant to youth be-
tween the ages 12 to 17.
Things consistently change in
Strathmore, we know theres new or-
ganizations out there that we want to
include, and we just feel its time for
an update, said Sobol.
The philosophy of course of this
is, one, we want to show the youth
and their parents there is actually a
bunch of things to do in Strathmore
you just have to be a little interested,
and two, the more activities that we
have for youth pushes them towards
things other than illegal activities. We
want to focus on the positive on this
as well.
SWAT wants to see the pamphlet as
a resource, something people think-
ing of moving to Strathmore can look
at and see what is available to offer
their children.
Organizations listed in the previous
pamphlet will be contacted to make
sure their information is still correct.
Group and organizations that ca-
ter to teens ages 12 to 17 who were
not in the previous pamphlet are en-
couraged to contact Crystal Wahl at
cwahl@redeemer.ab.ca.

Busy times for local 4-H club
ShayLene Magwood
Crowfoot Multi 4-H
As our 4-H season starts to wrap-
up, our members are getting busier
and busier. We had our last general
meeting preparing for the end of
our 4-H year. Our speakers who
moved on to Regionals had a great
showing with some of our mem-
bers placing and all speaking very
well. Unfortunately none of our
participants made it on to provin-
cials but there is always next year!
Archery has been a busy place con-
stantly working on their shooting
and making their very own quivers,
stamping, dying and sewing them
together.
The dog agility group met again
during the month reviewing ev-
erything they learned in the year
such as the tunnels, jumps, hoops,
pause box, and of course walking
and sitting. They also created their
very own projects; personalized
dog collars. Each member of the
group stamped, punched and dyed
a collar for their furry friend. The
dog agility members would like to
thank the Biskups especially John
and Marshall for their use of their
shop, and Mike Comstock for his
help as well.
All the dogs and owners are very
pleased with their new collars. Our
regional Fun day at the Atlas coal
mine is planned on April 21, I know
we are all very excited because it
is sure to be a great time. Our ex-
change group is also having an
M&M barbeque fundraiser on April
28, so stop by at the local M&M to
pick up a burger and support our
exchange group.
A reminder to all our members
that Achievement day is fast ap-
proaching so be prepared with a
completed record book and board
for the date. Our Achievement day
will be on May 12 at the Ag Grounds
in Strathmore. We will also be hav-
ing our annual Highway clean up
on May 5, this is a mandatory event
so all members be sure to be there.
We will be participating in this
event with clubs across the prov-
ince along with many other groups.
And that is what has happened in
our Crowfoot Multi 4-H club.
Show your 4-H spirit!
Sydney Berreth &
BiLLi CoMStoCk
Crowfoot Multi 4-H
The Crowfoot 4-H multi is hosting
an M&M Meat shops BBQ in the park-
ing lot just outside the M&M meats
store. The BBQ will begin on April 28
around 10 a.m. and will wrap up at 4
p.m. We will be selling freshly grilled
burgers, hotdogs and juice.
This fundraiser will help give our
group the chance to take part in the
Canadian Youth Exchange Program.
This program allows 4-H kids to go
other places in the world to experi-
ence fun activities. We wish to obtain
many new experiences and inherit the
culture of many other provinces.
This money will help aid the fnanc-
es of this trip and help to make the
experience worthwhile for our group
and those who will come visit our
province.
We hope you show your support
by stopping by and purchasing our
mouth watering burgers, juicy hotdogs
and washing it down with a glass of
cool fruity juice.
Thank you for your generosity and
participation of this local event. We
hope to see you there!

Pat Fule
Fule for Thought
When Deb and I were engaged, we had to go to a
Marriage Workshop in Calgary. It was supposed to
be a way for us to get to know each other. The prob-
lem was that wed known each other for four years,
so some of the tasks we had to do were pretty lame.
This workshop cost us $50, and part of the way
through it, I begged Debbie to let us leave I even
offered to pay another $50 to her, if we COULD bail!
However, in this workshop, no one ever talked
about a HUGE problem in new marriages: learning
to actually sleep with someone else in the same bed.
I have never been a good sleeper, it has (until Doc
medicated me) always taken me a long time to fall
asleep. Not so much for Sleeping Beauty, as she
can fall asleep easily. Early on, I would lie there, lis-
tening to her sleep, while I tried to count backwards
think happy thoughts but often to no avail.
I also drove Deb crazy whenever I moved to re-
position (now THAT sounded dirty). She would re-
mind me after a Hard Days Night (favourite band
reference), that I HAVE to move slowly when I turn
over, because, or she gets scared every time! No one
at the Marriage Workshop dealt with sleep, yet thats
where we all spend about 1/3 of our lives. I tried to
remind her she didnt marry a mime, but at 7 a.m.,
she didnt fnd that so funny.
A few days after we were married, we stayed at
Debs parents place in Canmore. That night, after
toasting with the new in-laws, everyone shuffed off
to bed. This was to be MY frst experience with an-
other partners sleeping. In the middle of the night,
Deb sat up and began thanking various guests for
coming to our wedding! She went on for a few dif-
ferent couples, then quietly woke herself giggling. I
told her that I thought she got to everyone, and now
she could go back to sleep. Im sure you all have
your own stories about sleep-talking, but this was
my frst experience. In the morning, I passed her
in the hall, and said youre welcome again my
FIRST experience with her not appreciating early
morning humour!
Late one night in our frst apartment, I mustve
been infuenced by that classic TV show Miami
Vice. In MY dream, I was saving Debbie on a cab-
in cruiser, pushing off bad guys into the ocean.
The fnal guy was relentless still trying to get on
board, so I had to take drastic action. I awoke, pull-
ing back my fst from between Debbies eyes, and
realized I had just smoked her! I apologized, and se-
cretly hoped there would be no marks when she left
for school! A few years later, poor Deb was again
awakened in the night by me pounding on her legs!
In THIS dream, there was literally a river of rats
spilling over each other, fooding over our bed and
down again. I was, of course, protecting her by at-
tacking the rodents, but she didnt sound convinced.
So over time, our sleep-talking/attacking came to
an end. With time, I had even learned to move slow-
ly if I had to turn over, and not to bump her. That
was until one late night after a night of pub crawl-
ing. The Cambridge sub-division was new, so our
house was near the East farm felds. I dont know
why, but I decided after lying in bed AGAIN not
able to sleep, that I would try to do a coyote howl.
I slowly sat up, threw back my head, and howled as
loudly and as long as I could. Now, in my defence,
it WAS a pretty good howl, and we HAD been out
on the town.
I looked over at Debbie and said: that was pretty
good, eh?
She was (I thought) shaking with laughter. Sadly,
I discovered that she was not shaking with laughter,
but with fear, as I had scared the crap out of her. In
between tremors and sobs, she asked, why?
I didnt have an answer then, and I dont have one
now, but it was a good howl.
In the past few years, I developed a snoring prob-
lem. Now part of that problem was that I got ban-
ished on various nights to other rooms or couches.
In California for a school basketball trip, I even re-
sorted to sleeping in the bathroom. ANYONE can
sleep in a tub, but I found couch cushions, a com-
forter and pillow, and made a bed under the bath-
room sink! It was actually not as bad as it sounds
very dark and quiet, AND a cool temperature
as well. The only problem was having to move my
home whenever someone had to use the room!
Nowadays, my new sleep machine/mask now stop
me from snoring. Oh sure, theres the odd time
when the mask is over my ear, and the mist wakes
me, but its been pretty good. The only trouble is I
cant speak well with the mask on, and I dont get to
howl anymore. Maybe thats a good thing

Parliamentary Report
As your federally-elected representative, I have
some reservations about writing a news column
while our province is immersed in a provincial
election. Voters will want to be careful not to mix
federal issues with provincial ones while deciding
which way to cast their ballot. We can congratulate
and thank all the candidates for agreeing to stand
for election. That is not an easy decision for any-
one, and everyone who puts their name forward
should be commended.
As well, I encourage all of the citizens of our
great province to cast your vote! It is our demo-
cratic duty to exercise this political freedom for
which previous generations of Canadians fought
and died. Canadian citizens are privileged to have

The weeks of April 8 and 15 were Constituency
Offce weeks in the Parliamentary calendar and
the House of Commons was not sitting. As your
Member of Parliament, I meet with many of you
in our Constituency offce and in Satellite Offces
throughout our large geographic riding.
So far, Budget 2012, Canadas Economic Action
Plan unveiled in Ottawa last week seems to be re-
ceiving favourable reviews. For the most part, I
am hearing that we understand the austerity mea-
sures our government is taking to equip our na-
tion to pursue opportunities and remain prosper-
ous now and for the long term. We are keeping
taxes low and cutting government spending. In
the continuing uncertain global economy we are
focused on keeping Canadians working, creating
jobs, and growing the Canadian economy. Budget
2012 provides a $1.1 billion tool box of measures
to stimulate and encourage entrepreneurship, in-
novation, and research. We want federal funding to
be aimed at industrial research that will lead to the
promotion of commercial innovation and thereby
be more capable of growing Canadas economy. I
hope everyone will visit www.Budget2012.gc.ca to
read about these efforts.
The best news that Budget 2012 brings for Al-
berta is the improvement to the conditions for businesses
with investments in responsible resource development. These
frms and their workers will now have a streamlined one
project, one review system. While we all want the respon-
sible development of our provinces natural resource wealth,
we want these reviews to be fair and based on scientifc evi-
dence. The time-frame for reviews of these projects will be
shortened to facilitate making decisions earlier so as to ac-
celerate development. More projects can be considered if the
failed ones can be dispensed with more quickly. Some of
these reviews will be up to the provinces themselves to con-
duct and this is good news for Alberta.

On the eastern Canada trip
with Crowther Memorial Ju-
nior High School, I got to see
a little piece of my family his-
tory that otherwise I would
not have had the opportunity.
In St.Catharines, Ont., stands
a museum that was built in
honour of my great-great
uncle Jack Haney, who made
the frst Canadian transconti-
nental trip by automobile.
Without the chance to visit
eastern Canada, I wouldnt
have been able to witness an
accomplishment of not only a
relative, but a courageous in-
dividual who will forever be a
part of Canadian history.
Canadian adventure
Haney was paired up with
a man named Thomas Wilby
for this expedition. Wilby was
the frst to propose the trip to
the REO Motor Car Company,
and was sent to document
the journey. Haney, who had
been working for REO for
some time, was chosen be-
cause he was the most capa-
ble mechanic in the company.
Haney was just 23 years old
at the time, nearly 20 years
Wilbys junior. This did not
make the older gentleman
very pleased, and when he
described the adventure he
wrote it as if Haney had nev-
er been there.
They left Halifax on Aug.
27, 1912. This trip would lit-
erally take them from sea to
sea, Halifax N.S. to Vancouver
B.C.
The trip took 52 days, over
6,720 kilometres of mostly
gravel roads and dirt terrain.
They encountered about 960
kilometres of detours, and
had to make a lot of the trip
in reverse. This was because
there was a lower gear ratio
in reverse, making it easier to
climb steep hills. Going back-
wards was better than not go-
ing at all.
On Sept. 2, 1912, six days
into the trip, Haney wrote in
his personal diary, Had trou-
ble getting up a hill about 20
miles out of Quebec. It was
too steep for the gas to feed
with full tank so I tried back-
ing in, but when about 100 ft.
from top could not get trac-
tion.
Four French-Canadians
happended to be nearby and
sat in the rear seat to give the
car some weight, and Haney
was able to back up over the
hill.
Haneys baCkground
Born Fonce Val Haney, in
1889, he later became known
by his nickname Jack. His
parents had been school
teachers. However, when his
mother died of typhoid fe-
ver when he was just 2-1/2
years old, his father left his
teaching position to work as
a cooper. A coopers work in-
cludes, but is not limited to
making barrels, casks, buck-
ets, tubs, and pipes. Haneys
father travelled up and down
the Mississippi River, making
barrel staves at sawmills and
picking up whatever work
he could. During this time,
Haney and his sister Hazel
stayed with various aunts and
uncles who lived in the area.
During his childhood,
Haney loved the outdoors.
Spending many summers
with his uncle Jack, at a cabin
in Clarksville, Mo., along the
Mississippi, he tinkered with
motorboats, and ran them up
and down the river. It was
in his teenage years though,
Eastern Canada trip more than just educational
Jack and Annie Haney in 1914.

Residential bReak and enteR
On Monday, April 16, Strathmore RCMP received a
complaint of a break and enter in the Strathcona area
of Strathmore. Some time between the hours of 1 p.m.
and 7:30 p.m., unknown persons entered the residence
through an unlocked door. Once inside suspects took
various electronics and jewellery items.
Police would like to remind everyone to ensure their
residence and vehicles are secured by locking them
when unattended.
If anyone has any information regarding this inci-
dent please call Strathmore RCMP at 403-934-3968 or
Crime stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
RCMP Briefs
that he became interested in horseless
carriages. It was this interest that led
him to becoming a maestro of the au-
tomobile, being able to tear one apart
and put it back together with ease.
Haney worked at a garage in North
Baltimore when he was 14, tinkering
with cars. It was at age 16 that he went
to work for the new Reo Motor Car Com-
pany, a second company started by Ran-
som E. Olds, who sold his frst company
(now known as Oldsmobile) to General
Motors. The Reo Car Company sold its
manufacturing operations in 1954 to the
Bohn Aluminum and Brass Company of
Detroit.
Through his hard work and dedica-
tion to the company, he was given the
chance to take on the exhibition because
of his skills in automobile mechanics.
Aftermath
Following the trip, Haney started a
taxi garage with two other men. This
business would give him the fnancial
means to make another big step in life
marriage.
Haney married Annie Swan, my great-
great aunt, on May 23, 1914.
Annie was the one to accept a plaque
in 1988, from the Canadian Automo-
bile Association, when the organization
named a good driving award in Haneys
honour. It was shortly after her 97th
birthday when she received the plaque,
and my grandparents Ron and Ruth
Swan, my father and my brother Don
and Dinsmore Swan visited her shortly
after this time.
My brother Dinsmore, who spent
some time talking with aunt Annie, said
she was still very sharp in her old age.
He said she was extremely happy that
Jack was fnally getting the credit he de-
served.
In 1989, the museum was constructed
in St. Catharines, Ont., to commemorate
Haneys accomplishment.
My mother, Eileen Swan, and I were
able to see the museum when we went
down east on the school trip. Again,
without this opportunity I would not
have been able to see this family history
for myself.
Haneys Canadian transcontinental
trip beat the Trans-Canada Highway by
over 50 years.

The Strathmore Chamber of Com-
merce hosted Strathmore-Brooks pro-
vincial candidates to address voters
questions on April 10 at the Strathmore
Civic Centre. The Liberal and NDP can-
didates were not available for this en-
gagement.
Moderator Marcy Field took written
questions from attendees prior to the
presentation and presented them to the
candidates by subject area. Field had
just completed a trip to Africa where
young people told her how important
it was for them to be involved in the
political process, because it determined
their future.
On April 23 Albertans vote. The
demographics have changed signif-
cantly since we became a province in
1905, due to the struggles and efforts
of many individuals who believed that
voting was more than a privilege. It was
a right. Exercise your right, it is your fu-
ture that is being decided, said Field.
Each candidate introduced himself
and gave reasons why they felt they
and their party could best serve the
Strathmore Brooks constituent needs.
Hale indicated he supported the Wil-
drose party because democracy and
rights were eroding and the existing
party was distant from things that Al-
bertans value. He wants to move poli-
tics back to a local level. To accomplish
this, he suggested some of the Wildrose
party changes would be:
Restoration of democracy and ac-
countability in government
Protection of property rights by re-
pealing bills 19, 24, 36 and 50
Passing a property preservation
act
Developing public health care ini-
tiatives supporting palliative care, kin-
ship care for family members caring
for loved ones, guaranteeing reduced
emergency room wait times, fxing the
existing hospital system before addi-
tional money is designated and provid-
ing full staffng for hospitals and care
homes
Giving an assisted senior drug pro-
gram, diverted home tax for seniors,
programs to help seniors age in home
Help for municipalities
Listing information like expenses
Addressing the questions
and budgets online
Free votes for MLAs in the legisla-
ture
Introducing recall measures for
voter supported referendums
Setting fxed election dates
Whistleblower protection for em-
ployees and healthcare workers
Incumbent MLA Arno Doerksen
wanted voters to consider Premier Red-
fords record and his personal record
as an MLA.
Those experiences over the past four
years have given me the understanding
of how government works both local,
at the provincial and international lev-
el, said Doerksen.
Doerksen outlined the many things
that he had the privilege of working on
with constituents while being MLA for
Strathmore-Brooks area.
Some of his accomplishments during
his four-year term were:
Serving on various boards and
committees in agriculture
Chair of provincial export boards
Interacting with people locally, pro-
vincially, nationally and internationally
Working with municipal leaders to
place the water line to Strathmore, in-
stallation of lines to take waste water
to the Bow river
Getting funding for the Sagewood
Seniors Apartments and continued ef-
forts on seniors living
Supporting the modernization of
the Aquatic Centre
Helping develop leadership initia-
tives that promotes growth and invest-
ment for the future
Constituents asked questions on
property rights, resource planning and
regulation, health care, water rights
and marketing, education funding, im-
migration, workforce and employment
training, balancing the budget and
funding and governance.
Candidates both agreed and dis-
agreed on several of the issues.
The attendees offered varied opin-
ions on the discussion.
Eric Nelson had not made up his
mind and said that he usually waits un-
til he is standing in the ballot box to
make his decision. Lori Wagenar said
that the meeting was very informative
and would help her make up her mind,
even though her particular question
was not answered, others were.
Archie Hall, on the other hand, wore
his decision on his jacket. He wore a
PC supporter button.
There is no question who I will vote
for, said Hall, a long-standing PC sup-
porter.

area voters wait for

gressive Conservative
candidate (back left)

Party to answers their
pressing questions
about the provincial
election. The forum
was held in the Strath-
more Civic Centre on
April 10.

Times Reporter
The haunting play, She Has A Name, which
brings to light the plight of human traffcking, is
returning for a 12-city tour. Last year the produc-
tion, which was written by Andrew Kooman, sold
out quickly in every city it played.
We felt like we needed to tell this story in as
many different cities across Canada as we could,
said Director Stephen Wald-
schmidt.
The audience response and the
response from news media and
theatre critics was such that we
think the play has something to
offer to Canada, in terms of how
Canada is responding to human
traffcking and maybe moving Ca-
nadians, and our government, and
our culture to address the reality of
traffcking both here and abroad in
a more active way.
The play follows Number 18,
a 15-year-old prostitute who has
been forced into working in a
brothel, and Canadian lawyer Ja-
son. Jason is building a case against
a ring of brothels traffcking young
girls in Bangkok, and Number 18
must risk her life to testify for him.
Andrew Kooman wont be travel-
ing with the tour, said Waldschmidt, though he
will be out to the talkback panel discussions after
the Saturday matinee in every city. Waldschmidt
said the plan is to try to arrange a talkback with
someone who is working locally against traffck-
ing in each city, as well as with someone from a
national perspective. Member of Parliament Joy
Smith is going to be part of the talk back in Win-
nipeg and Ottawa.
Its a powerful piece of theatre. Its a thrilling,
kind of gripping, suspenseful story so if youre
looking for a good night out and kind of an ac-
tion packed theatre experience thats one reason
to come, said Waldschmidt.
Another reason, said Waldschmidt, is if youve
heard of human traffcking and know it concerns
you but you dont really know much about it.
Besides attending a panel discussion after a Sat-
urday matinee, there is also an informative aspect
to the show itself. It will leave people with at
least a little bit better understanding of human
traffcking. Waldschmidt thinks in some sense
patrons may be inspired to take ac-
tion in their own life to be an abo-
litionist.
The play is in Bangkok in Thai-
land and there are, of course, these
places where sex tourism is an in-
dustry. I think as human beings
we have a responsibility to make
ourselves aware about the great
injustices that are occurring in our
generation, and I think this is one
that is growing, yet at the same
time theres a growing movement
to stop it, said Waldschmidt.
Seeing this play I think will help
people engage with the injustice of
human traffcking, not because of
the statistics or that sort of thing
that tends to be kind of paralyzing
but because they will have in some
sense lived vicariously through the
experience of Number 18 and Jason trying to
rescue her. I think their emotional connection to
those characters will evoke more of a human and
individual response from them rather than read-
ing about the issue and signing a petition. I think
its more something that needs to get under our
skin and bug us until we bring an end to it.
The show will be playing on stages in cities
including Lethbridge, Red Deer, Edmonton and
Calgary. Information about show dates and times
can be found at shehasaname.net.
