  • Media Report 16 August 2019, 1 of 1
    Media Report 16 August 2019, 1 of 1 This weeks media reports will cover and answer great questions veterans are still asking such as Writing your own Will, and local Media Articles. 6 Important Things To Think About When Writing Your Will A will protects your assets and your family. Yet about half of us don’t have a will or a power of attorney. Find out more. They’re called the “accumulation” or the “builder” years. Those are the 20, 30 or 40 years we work and earn money. That’s when we might buy a home, own a business, donate to charities, dabble in stocks, buy life insurance. Whatever the assets we build up, we want to protect them and pass them down to safe hands. One way to do this is to write a will and keep it updated. It’s not the most enjoyable of life’s tasks, but it is one of the most important. Yet more than half of Canadians don’t have a will or a power of attorney document, according to a survey by the Angus Reid Institute. What’s the difference between a will and a power of attorney? A power of attorney (POA) gives another person the legal right to act for you if you become mentally or physically unable act for yourself. There are two types of power of attorney. One is for your property and the other is for your personal care and health-related decisions. A will, on the other hand, sets out what you want to happen to your estate when you die.

  • Cold Lake Men Win Volleyball Gold
    We support ALL Veterans Cold Lake Branch 211 Call 780-639-3579 Volume 51 Number 10 www.couriernews.ca March 13, 2018 Cold Lake men win volleyball gold JEFF GAYE The Cold Lake men’s volleyball team has repeated as CAF Canada West champions. The men’s and women’s regional tournaments were played in Winnipeg last week. Cold Lake made the semi- finals in women’s competition but bowed out to the host team, who went on to take the title. The men’s tournament had six teams – Cold Lake, Winnipeg, Wainwright, Shilo, Comox and Edmonton. Cold Lake finished round robin play with a 3-2 record including losses to Winnipeg and Comox. This gave them fourth place and a berth in the semi-final against first-place Edmonton. The semi-final win set up a rematch against Comox in the final. “They were a really strong team,” said MCpl Gord Lee, Cold Lake’s playing coach. “We came out strong and won the first two sets. Then they fought back for two sets. It was a really close match that came down to the end in the fifth set, and we pulled off the win. “I’m really proud of my guys.” The team lost MCpl Lee to an ankle injury on the second day of competition, but they were able to pick up a “floater” from Esquimalt to cover the setter position. The women’s team finished third overall in their five-team tournament, with a win over Edmonton and losses to Winnipeg, Esquimalt and Comox. They lost to second-place Winnipeg in the semifinal.

  • Media Release
    Media Release Fifty-four new Fellows inducted into the Canadian Academy of Engineering Ottawa – (21 June 2019) – President Eddy Isaacs inducted 49 new Fellows and five new International Fellows into the Canadian Academy of Engineering on 21 June 2019. The ceremony took place in Quebec, in conjunction with the Academy’s 2019 Annual General Meeting and Symposium. Dr. Isaacs commented: “Over our past 32 years, Fellows of Academy have provided insights in the fields of education, infrastructure and innovation, and we are expecting the new Fellows to expand upon these contributions to public policy considerably. They are engineers from widely varying backgrounds, from Industry, Academe and Government, but they all have in common the demonstrated desire and ability to go beyond the normal practice of engineering and serve as role models in their fields and to their communities.” Citations and photographs for each of the new inductees follow. The Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE) is the national institution through which Canada's most distinguished and experienced engineers provide strategic advice on matters of critical importance to Canada. The CAE is an independent, self-governing and non-profit organization established in 1987. Members of the CAE are nominated and elected by their peers to honorary Fellowships, in view of their distinguished achievements and career-long service to the engineering profession. Fellows of the Canadian Academy of Engineering are committed to ensuring that Canada’s engineering expertise is applied to the benefit of all Canadians. The Canadian Academy of Engineering works in close cooperation with other senior academies in Canada and internationally.
