SESSIONAL PAPER No. 28 A. 1907 R oyal N orthwest M ounted P olice, H eadquarters, R egina, November 23, 1906. To the Right Honourable Sir W ilfrid L aurier, P.C., G.C.M.O., &c.. President of the Privy Council, Ottawa, Ont. S ir,—I have the honour to submit the following report on the work of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, for eleven months, ending October 31, 1906, together with the reports of the following officers:— Superintendent R. B. Deane, commanding Calgary District. “ G. E. Sanders, D.S.O., commanding Regina District. “ P. C. H. Primrose, commanding Macleod District. “ J. O. Wilson, commanding Lethbridge District. w J. V. Begin, commanding Prince Albert District. “ «T. A. McGibbon, commanding Battleford District. Inspector H. J. A. Davidson, commanding Maple Creek District. “ D. M. Howard, commanding McKenzie River District. “ D’Arey E. Strickland, commanding Fort Saskatchewan District. Surgeon G. P. Bell, Senior Medical Officer. Inspector J. F. Burnett, Veterinary Surgeon. Before the erection of the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan, the maintenance of law and order in the Northwest Territories, rested with the Dominion government, and this force was charged with that duty. To the provincial governments this duty passed. By agreement between the Dominion government and the provincial govern­ ments we continued to camry on the work, pending a decision by the provincial govern­ ments as to whether they desired a continuance of the force in the new provinces. Section 33, of the Mounted Police Act, 1894, authorizes the Governor in Council to enter into arrangements with the government of any province of Canada for the use or employment of the force, and to agree upon the amount of money which shall be paid by each province for such services. Under the authority of this section, you instructed the Comptroller to interview the Alberta and Saskatchewan governments on this subject. The Comptroller, accom­ panied by myself, met the members of the Alberta government, at Red Deer, on April 17, and the members of the Saskatchewan government at Regina, on April 20. The conference resulted in an arrangement being entered into between both pro­ vincial governments and the Dominion government, whereby the latter agreed to main­ tain a strength of 500 in the two provinces, each provincial government to contribute the sum of $75,000 for the service, and the balance of the cost of maintenance to be paid by the Dominion ; the control of the force to remain with the Dominion, and, in the execution of their duties relating to the administration of justice, to be subject to the orders of the Attorney's General ; this arrangement to be continued for five years, expiring on March 81,1911. 28—1 2 ROYAL NORTHWEST MOUNTED POLICE 6-7 EDWARD VII., A. 1907 We have now been working under this arrangement for six months in a most satis- factory way, and with an entire absence of friction in both provinces. The provincial departments have thoroughly supported us, and, on the other hand, I think the force has striven to carry out their instructions with zeal. If I may venture to express any opinion, I would say that the present arrangement is an advantageous one for the provinces, as well as for the Dominion. The immediate withdrawal of this force, in the very height of the rapid settlement, would have caused a feeling of unrest and disquiet, prejudicial to all interests. I cannot avoid expressing a feeling of satisfaction that the Legislature and the people approved so heartily the continuance of the force, and that those with whom we had worked, and who knew us best, when they had the chance, should have shown such confidence in the Royal Northwest Mounted Police. In the Yukon Territory and the re-organized Northwest Territories, consisting of the McKenzie, Franklin, Keewatin and Ungava districts, our duties remain as here­ tofore. The work of the force is ever growing, but our strength does not increase, and the duties fall more heavily on the individual members. The west is growing. New areas are coming under settlement, new towns are springing up, and railways are extending. With it all our burdens grow heavier. I endeavour, as best I can, to meet these conditions, but not to my satisfaction. I bear witness, however, to the cheerful way in which our men have responded. The ordinary police duties would try us to faithfully perform, but when to those- are added the maintenance of eight common jails, the attendance upon judges and magistrates, the escorting of prisoners and lunatics, the service of subpoenas, and the multifarious duties for other departments of the government, then they tax us to the utmost. THE PEACE RIVER YUKON TRAIL. Under your instructions, we commenced last year to construct a pack trail from Fort St. John, B.C., to the Yukon Territory. Ninety-four miles were completed when the heavy snow compelled the detachment under Inspector Richards to go into winter quarters. A small detachment, under Corporal McLeod, proceeded to Fort Graham and wintered there. The detachment experienced difficulties and hardships in making the trip. They first attempted to cross the mountains via Laurier pass, but, owing to lack of a guide, and deep snow, were forced to return to Fort St. John. Undaunted, they pushed up the Peace river, and, although the ice was running strong, succeeded in reaching Fort Graham. During the winter they made extensive patrols. Their presence at Fort Graham last winter was fortunate. The small tribe of Indians there were in great distress for want of food. Corporal McLeod, with that self-reliance and good judgment, which our men in isolated positions of responsibility so often develop, advanced them sufficient provisions to allow them to go to their hunting grounds, and thus avoided a threatened raid on the Hudson’s Bay Company’s trading post. During the winter, Inspector Richards, in accordance with

  • Watershed Stewardship in Alberta: a Directory of Stewardship Groups, Support Agencies, and Resources
    WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA: A DIRECTORY OF STEWARDSHIP GROUPS, SUPPORT AGENCIES AND RESOURCES APRIL 2005 INTRODUCTION FOREWORD This directory of WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA has been designed to begin a process to meet the needs of individuals, stewardship groups, and support agencies (including all levels of government, non- governmental organizations, and industry). From recent workshops, surveys, and consultations, community- based stewards indicated a need to be better connected with other stewards doing similar work and with supporting agencies. They need better access to information, technical assistance, funding sources, and training in recruiting and keeping volunteers. Some groups said they felt isolated and did not have a clear sense that the work they were doing was important and appreciated by society. A number of steps have occurred recently that are beginning to address some of these concerns. The Alberta Stewardship Network, for example, has been established to better connect stewards to each other and to support agencies. Collaboration with other provincial and national networks (e.g. Canada’s Stewardship Communities Network) is occurring on an on-going basis. Internet-based information sites, such as the Stewardship Canada Portal (www.stewardshipcanada.ca), are being established to provide sources of information, linkages to key organizations, and newsletters featuring success stories and progress being made by grassroots stewards. These sites are being connected provincially and nationally to keep people informed with activities across Canada. The focus of this directory is on watershed stewardship groups working in Alberta. The term ‘watershed’ is inclusive of all stewardship activities occurring on the landscape, be they water, air, land, or biodiversity-based.

  • Closure of Streets, Roads, Or Lanes
    Page 1 of 5 PROCEDURE NO. 015 (2009} Prepared/Amended by: Shanon Simon Manager Approve Municipal Secretary Date: ~/<::::.. TOPIC: CLOSURE OF STREETS, ROADS OR LANES Purpose: To regulate and control the closure of streets, roads and/or lanes within the boundaries of the Town of Redcliff as provided for in the Municipal Government Act R.S.A. 1994, chapter M-1, Section 22. To promote orderly development and utility servicing within the Town of Redcliff, or facilitate creation of lots or parcels for sale, as it relates to roadways. To provide proper process, advice and background on applications for the closure of roadways. Procedure: 1. Typically there are two reasons for requiring the closure of a roadway. a) Preparing land for future subdivision and development of land. (Typically this would involve re-opening a road structure with alternate routing at a future time through the subdivision process.) b) For the purpose of acquisition of a portion of the road or lane, creating a titled property for use as is, or for being consolidated to an adjacent property. 2. When the request is for the purpose of using/acquiring the closed portion of a roadway, and there is no intention for the road or lane to be reopened in an alternate location, the matter should first be forwarded to Committee of the Whole Council. They (Committee of the Whole Council) will then provide their opinion on whether they would like to have Administration initiate the formal process to close the roadway for the purpose of it being sold. By getting this initial opinion, if the proposal were unacceptable, it would save the need for an application, advertising, and the administrative process related to initiating a closure.

    Alberta Infrastructure Response to Questions at the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, June 2, 2020 1. Question from Mr. Thomas Dang (NDP), MLA for Edmonton-South Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) “I understand that a number of the projects were continued and approved under the ICIP, but a number of projects, such as the Lethbridge performing arts centre, didn’t move forward in the process. Could you get us a list of those projects and how many dollars didn’t move forward?” (Page PA-217) Deputy Minister’s Response: “We can provide you with the list of the complete 700 applications and then the list that did get approved.” Supplemental Response: As part of Budget 2020, the Province has endorsed more than 70 projects in more than 30 constituencies to move forward to the federal application stage. Applicants with endorsed projects are working with the Province to fulfill the federal application requirements. Under the terms of the Integrated Bilateral Agreements, project announcements can only be made jointly once federal approval is received. 13 projects were previously approved for $2.7 billion in ICIP funding (see Attachment 1 – ICIP Federally Approved Projects): 1. Alberta Capital Region Wastewater Commission – Waste Gas Burner Facility 2. Ben Calf Robe School Building Upgrades (Edmonton) 3. Green Line LRT (Calgary) 4.
