Soils and Landscapes of the Front Ranges, Foothills, and Great Plains. Field Trip Guide. Canadian Society of Soil Science Annual Meeting, Banff, Alberta May 2014. 18 p. 2 3 Banff Park In the fall of 1883, three Canadian Pacific Railway construction workers stumbled across a cave containing hot springs on the eastern slopes of Alberta's Rocky Mountains. From that humble beginning was born Banff National Park, Canada's first national park and the world's third. Spanning 6,641 square kilometres (2,564 square miles) of valleys, mountains, glaciers, forests, meadows and rivers, Banff National Park is one of the world's premier destination spots. In Banff’s early years, The Canadian Pacific Railway built the Banff Springs Hotel and Chateau Lake Louise, and attracted tourists through extensive advertising. In the early 20th century, roads were built in Banff, at times by war internees, and through Great Depression-era public works projects. Since the 1960s, park accommodations have been open all year, with annual tourism visits to Banff increasing to over 5 million in the 1990s. Millions more pass through the park on the Trans-Canada Highway. As Banff is one of the world's most visited national parks, the health of its ecosystem has been threatened.

  • June 2021 LINKS Newsletter
    A New Season! When looking back to last June, who would have anticipated events that unfolded over the past year? Zoom, TEAMS and WFH (working from home) are part of our ver- nacular, and the words, ‘quarantine’, ‘lockdown’ and ‘virus’ all have new meaning. With the recent Government of Alberta’s announcement of Phase 3 beginning soon, we are planning for an in-person Annual Clinic Coordinator meeting this September 16th, in Edmonton. Public Health orders and advisories will be followed and, if neces- sary, adjustments can be made prior to the meeting. The Rajani FASD Ax and Dx Clinic Training Services is celebrating its 10-year anniversary, and this meeting will recognize and honour the past decade of building relationships, supporting, and connecting with clinics across Alberta. Stay tuned for more information about this meeting, including hotel room bookings. We are pleased to welcome Kelly Rogers to our team. Some of you may remember Kelly as the clinic coordinator with the NW Central Network from 2011-2014. She will be providing assistance to our projects’ work over the next months. Amber Bell has been actively involved and influential to the success of our program for a number of years, including her contributions to: pilot projects; training clinicians on the University of Washington Facial Software program; research papers; and developing a TIPS sheet for the Disability Tax Credit application. Amber has stepped aside to devote time to her other obligations and we wish her well, but will continue to see her in- volvement with FASD. With this ‘Open for Summer’ plan, please continue to support your clients and others to understand how effective vaccines are in preventing COVID-19 disease and its protection against severe COVID-19 illness, risk of hospitalization or death.

  • ALBERTA FLOODS: Two Year Progress Report
    ALBERTA FLOODS: Two Year Progress Report Two years ago, floodwaters devastated properties and uprooted the lives of thousands of people across southern Alberta. From Calgary to Canmore in the west, High River and Medicine Hat in the south, and all points in between, the flood destroyed homes, businesses, and farmland. Canadian Red Cross knows that needs emerge over time following a disaster of this magnitude. Emotional, financial, and family stresses continue to challenge Albertans and we, along with our donors and supporters, are here to help with their on-going recovery and resiliency. We are genuinely grateful for your trust in the Canadian Red Cross. We offer sincere thanks for the exceptional support shown to us and Albertans. This report celebrates the resiliency of the people and communities affected by the flood, and some of the outstanding achievements of what can be accomplished by collaborating together to help build a better tomorrow. We are inspired and encouraged by the strength of our fellow citizens and our communities. RED CROSS RESPONSE: RECOVERY AND BEYOND While much has been accomplished in the two years since the Alberta floods in June 2013, our work is not done. As families, individuals, and businesses move forward with their recovery, Red Cross continues to have a steady presence in High River and the First Nations communities. Some southern Albertans are only now seeking assistance as their financial and emotional reserves are depleted. We are committed to continuing our work with Albertans as they recover from this disaster. EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INITIATIVE OF CALGARY Even groups that help others deal with disaster can better prepare themselves for future crises.

  • The 2013 Flood Event in the Bow and Oldman River Basins; Causes, Assessment, and Damages
    The 2013 flood event in the Bow and Oldman River basins; causes, assessment, and damages John Pomeroy1, Ronald E. Stewart2, and Paul H. Whitfield1,3,4 1Centre for Hydrology, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, S7N 5C8. Phone: (306) 966-1426, Email: [email protected] 2Department of Environment and Geography, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 2N2 3Department of Earth Science, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, V5A 1S6 4Environment Canada, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3S5 Event summary In late June 2013, heavy rainfall and rapidly melting alpine snow triggered flooding throughout much of the southern half of Alberta. Heavy rainfall commenced on June 19th and continued for three days. When the event was over, more than 200 mm and as much as 350 mm of precipitation fell over the Front Ranges of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Tributaries to the Bow River including the Ghost, Kananaskis, Elbow, Sheep, Highwood, and many of their tributaries all reached flood levels. The storm had a large spatial extent causing flooding to the north and south in the Red Deer and Oldman Basins, and also to the west in the Elk River in British Columbia. Convergence of the nearly synchronous floodwaters downstream in the Saskatchewan River system caused record high releases from Lake Diefenbaker through Gardiner Dam. Dam releases in Alberta and Saskatchewan attenuated the downstream flood peak such that only moderate flooding occurred in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. More than a dozen municipalities declared local states of emergency; numerous communities were placed under evacuation order in Alberta and Saskatchewan. More than 100,000 people needed to evacuate their homes, and five people died.

[email protected] Ranch Market on the Trans Canada Hwy Associate Broker Page 11 Drug wars SHARON MCLEAY Times Contributor We are used to hearing about drug wars involv- ing illegal street drugs, but there is a war brewing over the Alberta government cuts made to legally Celebrating dispensed drugs by pharmacies. Pharmacists are St. Paddy’s Day saying the cuts will seriously affect the way they do business and will adversely affect client care. “They are sacrificing patient care. They are try- ing to look like they are saving money, but in Page 17 the long run they are sacrificing patient care. Es- pecially in rural areas, where in some cases, the pharmacy is your health care centre,” said Gord Morck, owner of Strathmore Value Drug Mart. An Alberta government review in 2008 deter- mined that generic drugs should be substituted for higher priced manufacturer brand name drugs to save money. They also determined that pharma- cists could charge 35 per cent over and above the manufacturer price to cover their staffing, busi- Spartans host ness, operations costs. The government then be- Provincials gan a yearly decrease on that percentage, leading to the present 18 per cent cost cut. Brand name drugs have no cost restrictions placed on them. “What they are doing is price controls. Some- Page 17 thing that I buy on April 29 that I pay $100 for; on May 1, I will have to sell for $50.
