Page 2 Page 19 President’s Barbeque PRESIDENT’S REPORT – GORD BLIZE Well, another summer is gone, but we are sure having a beautiful Fall. Hunting is in full swing; both rifle and archery are going strong. I was even successful on an Antlerless Moose Draw in an area that I do not hunt. I must have miscued on the computer when I was putting in for my draws and ended up getting the wrong WMU. I hunted there maybe 20 years ago but it was not the zone that I wanted. Thanks to Dan Roth for taking me under his wing and showing me a new area. So this shows you to pay attention to the details, or watch your fat fingers on the keyboard. As well, we had our first planning meeti ng for the th rd 48 Game Dinner and Trophy Ball which will be happening on March 3 , so if you would like to help plan this exciting event, please let me know. Along with that, we NEED someone in the Fort to take over the deep freezer for the gathering of the donated meat for the banquet. All you have to do is plug it in, record the weight of the meat donated, the type (moose, elk, deer, etc), what WMU it was shot in and the date it was shot, then we look after the Capital Health Permit and away we go. Right now it is at Adrienne and James’, so if you were successful this year, please give them a call and arrange to donate some healthy wild meat. The President’s BBQ went off without a hitch. Thanks to Colin M. and John Homeniuk for doing the BBQ and MANY thanks to Old Country Sausage in Bruderheim for donating the hamburgers (see my report).. Legacy Park bird house building was held on June 4th, with over 180 birdhouses being built. We even had a 92 year young gentlemen walk away with a birdhouse. Many thanks to our volunteers and to Dow Chemical for the grant to buy the wood. We were also approached in October to donate 30 bluebird houses to the Bruderheim Communities in Bloom activity with children, so we did that as well. And the family fishing derby turned out really well (see the report). We sent two youths to Narrow Lake Conservation Camp this summer. Adam Gremm and Jason Hinken were the only two young people who applied (see Jason’s report). One of them was sponsored by the Fluker Family. The Fluker Grandfather, Morgan Alton, passed away earlier this year, and the family requested that instead of flowers, donations be made to the Club. Morgan was not a member but he was never happier than when he was taking a youngster out fishing. His love of the outdoors showed when he was sharing it with his grandkids. We wish to thank Mary Alton and the Fluker Family for this kind gesture in the memory of their husband and grandfather. Once again, Narrow Lake ran two camps this summer. Their Winter Survival Camp is coming up, December 27th to 30th and this camp shows the kids that there is a lot to do in the winter months. You don’t have to hibernate. We will be sponsoring two youth this year again, so let’s get some names in. As well, we sponsored two women to the BOW program at Narrow Lake. Chris Ruzycki and Mary Chizen went and had a fantastic time (please read their report) and we will look forward to the Power Point presentation that they are putting together. We need volunteers for the Camrose Casino on January 13th and 14th, 2012. James is taking the names of volunteers, and when we say work, we mean that term loosely. It’s usually a fun time. We will cover the volunteers hotel, mileage and reason- able food costs (while you are at the casino the food is supplied). This is a big money maker for your Club but please carpool if you can.

  • Universities Receive Approval to Address Market Anomalies One-Time Tuition Fee Adjustments Will Help Balance Affordability and Quality
    April 7, 2010 Universities receive approval to address market anomalies One-time tuition fee adjustments will help balance affordability and quality Edmonton... One-time tuition fee adjustments for six professional programs will help Alberta’s two biggest universities maintain quality without compromising affordability for students. Minister of Advanced Education and Technology, Doug Horner approved the adjustments to address market anomalies that existed when tuition fees were capped in 2004. The increases will not apply to students who are currently in these programs or making plans for this coming fall. They will be implemented for new students starting in fall 2011. “These adjustments will ensure the continued quality of these programs,” said Horner. “Students have indicated their support and I understand that some are working with their universities to see a percentage of the new revenue reinvested into student supports, like scholarships and bursaries.” A total of 24 proposals were received from five institutions. The six accepted proposals are for Engineering, Pharmacy, Bachelor of Commerce and Graduate Studies programs at the University of Alberta and Bachelor of Commerce and Masters of Business Administration programs at the University of Calgary. Increases of between $800 and $3,300 per year were approved based on an anomaly existing in 2004, support from student associations, and keeping costs comparable to other programs in Canada. “These have not been easy decisions to make. You have to look at the proposals on a case-by-case basis,” said Horner. “In the end, what it really comes down to is finding the right balance between affordability and quality.

  • Naughty and Nice to Taxpayers List’ 2013
    ‘Naughty and Nice to Taxpayers List’ 2013 Naughty Alison Redford: Premier Redford flies around the world more than Santa Claus and gives out more free gifts paid for by debt than the big man in red could ever hope to, using mere elves. Total expense: $82,872 Notable airfare expense claims: o $7,875 to New Brunswick o $6,092 to Chicago o $5,927 to Toronto Notable hotel expense claims: o $876/night in Washington (x2) o $772/night in New York (x3) o $635/night in Toronto (x2) o $649/night in Ottawa (x2) Notable meal & hospitality claims o $22 coffees in Washington o $31 hamburger in Washington Doug Horner: Government debt is sort of like making the kids pay Santa for mom and dad’s presents. Since Doug is leaving behind debt for the little ones, Santa is likely to leave behind a lump of coal for him this year. Large debt and deficit; Even the Auditor General can’t figure out how to make sense out of his books; Initially banning the CTF from the budget lockup. Thomas Lukaszuk: Less naughty than last year, but Minister Lukaszuk sure does love flying to Calgary any chance that the can get. No driving for him. He even managed to find an excuse to be in Calgary on ‘government business’ for five days during Stampede. The last time Santa spent five days at Stampede, the elves fell behind on Cabbage Patch Kids and Mrs. Claus made him sleep on the couch for a week. Add to this his threat to raise beer taxes, and he really had no chance of making the Nice List this year.
