  • From River Lots to Suburb: the Morris Family Farm and the Founding of Fulton Place
    From River Lots to Suburb: The Morris Family Farm and the Founding of Fulton Place Fulton Place Community League (Heritage Committee) 1 From River Lots to Suburb: The Morris Family Farm and the Founding of Fulton Place Preface: Edmonton’s Fulton Place community is typical of many North American residential neighborhoods built during the mid-1950s. From the outset the modestly priced and sized houses attracted young families. Over time, schools, places of worship, sports fields and recreational amenities, retail shops, seniors’ residences and green spaces were added. The population has ebbed and flowed as generations have come and gone, but the area continues to attract families – many staying for decades. Once considered suburban, Fulton Place and the adjacent neighborhoods of the Hardisty district are now referred to as mature. Given this description is applicable to hundreds of neighborhoods in towns and cities across Alberta, what secrets from the past could such a locale possibly harbour? As it turns out, more than one might think. For example, the oldest in-situ structure in Fulton Place is the former Morris family farmhouse believed to have been built during the First World War.1 Just prior to the war, the Morris family attempted to create a housing sub-division on their land. Had this venture succeeded, parts Edmonton’s Hardisty district, including Fulton Place, would be known by the names Ridgeway Park, Crescent View and College Heights. The following narrative traces the emergence of the Fulton Place neighborhood, beginning with the Dominion Land Survey of Edmonton Settlement in 1882-83. This document’s primary purpose is to provide context for several other components of the “River Lots to Suburb” arts and heritage project that includes oral histories, digitization and reproduction of a heritage mural, and photo-documentation of the Morris (Bishop) farmhouse.

Edmonton, Alberta, Medal of Military Valour. On August 4, 2008 insurgent forces surrounded an Afghan National Army company in a complex ambush in the Panjwayi district of Afghanistan. Warrant Officer Crane and Corporal Myroniuk selflessly remained in the danger zone to extract an Afghan casualty and support another Canadian soldier who was caught in the open. Together, they stood against over 30 insurgents using small arms fire and, when their ammunition was depleted, resorted to hand grenades to hold off the enemy. The courage of Warrant Officer Crane and Corporal Myroniuk saved Canadian and Afghan lives and prevented the company from being outflanked.

ABSTRACT This study deals with the Chancellor's role in policy issues at the University of Alberta. The research examines the hypothesis that the Chancellor's influence on policy issues is non-existent because the University Senate, over which the Chancellor presides, holds no decision-making power under Alberta legislation.

  • Citadel Theatre Mourns the Loss of Founder Sandy Mactaggart
    Artistic Director DARYL CLORAN Executive Director PENNY RITCO 9828 – 101 A Avenue NW Edmonton, Alberta Canada T5J 3C6 www.citadeltheatre.com Tel: (780) 426-4811 Fax: (780) 428-7194 Box Office: (780) 425-1820 MEDIA RELEASE CITADEL THEATRE MOURNS THE LOSS OF FOUNDER SANDY MACTAGGART July 04, 2017 (EDMONTON) Edmonton philanthropist and long-time Citadel patron and benefactor Sandy Mactaggart has passed away in his native Scotland. He was 89 years of age. Mactaggart was a founding member of the Citadel Theatre in 1965 with Joe Shoctor, Ralph B. MacMillan and James L. Martin. The four enterprising city builders contributed their own money to purchase and transform the old Salvation Army Citadel building into a theatre. Mactaggart served on the original Board of Directors of the Citadel and had been a member of the Board of Governors for many years. Over the years, Maclab Enterprises, the property development company he shared with partner Jean de la Bruyere, proved to be a visionary ally and a steadfast financial supporter of the Citadel. The theatre’s thrust stage was named after the company when it was built as part of the second phase of the new theatre complex in 1984. Maclab Enterprises sponsored a production each year on the Maclab stage, and also has supported such important programs as the Maclab Students Club, giving high school students in the greater Edmonton area access to Citadel performances and theatre professionals. Mactaggart also was a founder of the Edmonton Art Gallery. In a 2015 interview for the Citadel Theatre archives, Mactaggart said he loved Edmonton from the start, appreciating the sense of equality, friendliness and helpfulness he found here.
