    Glenbow Archives, Anglican Missionary Slide Show (M 3520) Lantern slide 1 –The Appeal of the Archbishops. Before us we have the Appeal that was issued in February 1910 by the archbishops of Canterbury and York on behalf of Western Canada. The Archbishops say that their Appeal is made in an unusual way and with unusual emphasis. But this is the case they say because the occasion is unprecedented. At no time in the history of the Empire has any development taken place so rapidly as that which is taking place in the western part of Canada to-day. The appeal was published in all the leading papers, both Church and secular throughout the country; it has been sent to every incumbent in the British Isles and it has been conspicuously displayed in many of our Churches. You will see that the Appeal is addressed not only to the Church but also to the people of England. It is a call from the Heads of our Church, our two great Fathers in God, to expert ourselves to win a great victory for Christ. So strongly do the Archbishops feel with regard to the situation in Western Canada, that in 1913 they reiterated their Appeal and once again called on the Church and people of England to help forward the work. The Archbishop of Canterbury [no slide available] At a service of Dismissal of Clergy for Canada the Archbishop stated in the course of his address:- “This opportunity stands literally by itself in the history of Christendom.” The Archbishop has preached and spoken several times on behalf of the Fund and has Glenbow Archives, Anglican Missionary Slide Show (M 3520) expressed his hope that the Church and people of England will rise to this great opportunity.
  • The Town of Onoway

    The Town of Onoway

    Welcome to The Town of Onoway Situated in the scenic Sturgeon River valley, the Town of Onoway, Alberta with a population of 1,029, is located on gently rolling farmland in the southeast corner of Lac Ste. Anne County. Onoway provides a small-town country lifestyle, along with easy access to major urban centres. The town is well positioned at the junction of Highways 43 and 37 and is approximately 50 km directly northwest of Edmonton and 35 km northwest of Spruce Grove. Being in the proximity of the outer commuter zone for the greater Edmonton metro region allows people to live in Onoway and enjoy the more affordable and quieter country lifestyle while working elsewhere. Likewise, the Town’s proximity to the two highways also allows people to live elsewhere while being employed in Onoway. The greater connectivity of Onoway with Stony Plain, Spruce Grove, St. Albert and Edmonton has been good for the Town. It gives residents more options for work and recreation, and businesses have a greater potential market. The community has deep roots as an agricultural community going back at least 100 years. The Town of Onoway, benefits from a local trading area of more than 16,000 with a large number of country residential subdivisions and summer villages in the area supporting its retail businesses and professional service sectors. Onoway has become a small hub for the East Lac Ste. Anne region, providing vital education, health, retail, recreational and social services to residents of the town and surrounding rural areas. Topography Onoway is surrounded by an interesting landscape which is characterized by moderately rolling, hilly topography and big bodies of water.

    39 You Hit Gravel Country About Half an Hour South of Onoway, West Of

    You hit gravel country about half an hour south of Onoway, west of Edmonton. Smooth-sided hills of rock, sand, and silt rise out of the prairie landscape, interspersed with the gaping pits they came from. Up close, the man-made mounds tower at least three stories above your head; the bulldozers on top of them look like Tonka toys in comparison. These hills are but a small chip off the global crushed rock block, an industry that produces about 19 billion tonnes of sand and gravel worth $76 billion U.S. a year.1 B.J. Vickery drives his truck into the Onoway Wash Plant wearing the requisite safety helmet and vest. As director of Lafarge North America’s environmental and regulatory affairs in western Canada, he knows a lot about how gravel affects the watershed. Vickery walks up to an edifice of steel girders and conveyor belts. This gravel washing machine, about the height and length of a small warehouse, cleans hundreds of tonnes of gravel a day trucked in from five local pits, he says. Excess wash-water drips into a pool beneath its first conveyor belt. “It’s a simple business,” Vickery says of the gravel industry. “We take big rocks and make small rocks and then wash them.” 39 Simple, but also controversial. Gravel extraction is widely perceived as one of the bad-boys of water use in the Sturgeon, and also has the largest amount of water licensed to it in the region.2 People complain about the dust, the noise, the traffic, and, most controversially, the effect the mines have on local water supplies.
