Below: LCol Errington presents himself at the Town door, signs papers with the Deputy Mayor, and leads her to inspect his troops. - Lucie Roy photos Gibbons grants PPCLI Freedom of the Town by Lucie Roy Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) has undertaken a commemorative program to maximize its interaction with Canadians across the country during their centennial year. Saturday’s Freedom of the City parade in Gibbons was one of those occasions. Freedom of the City is an honour granted to military units or formations, al- lowing them the privilege to march in a specific town or city with drums beating, colours uncased or flying, and bayonets fixed. Coady Summerfield 2IC B Coy 3 PPCLI provided a history of the Freedom of the City, saying the ceremony is a tradition that dates back to ancient Rome and has been observed to this day. “Armies were often forbidden from a city due to conflicting loyalties and the general instability that existed at that time,” Summerfield said. “The citizens of these towns (usually fortified) would deny access for their own protection. Exceptions, however, were made as signs of trust and allegiance, allowing the request military unit entry. Throughout the Medieval period the tradition continued, typically to protect the public rights of the town.” The Freedom of the City was granted essentially for those troops who earned the trust of the people, usually by protecting them and by being a familiar presence. The honour is symbolic today and usually granted to a unit with ties to the area and as a token of appreciation for dedicated service. To reciprocate the gesture, the battalion presented a PPCLI print to the Deputy Mayor to hang at the Gibbons Town Office. The print is of a famous PPCLI scene: The Second Battle of Ypres (Frezenburg), by William Barnes Wollen. This battle is known within the Regiment as “the death of the originals.” The Morinville News — September 17, 2014 Around The 3 Former fire chief to be thrown to the Lions by Morinville News Staff Former Morinville Fire Chief Ron Cust has certainly felt the heat after more than a quarter century with the Morinville Fire Department, but the lifelong Morinville resident will soon feel a different kind of heat.

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada – February 13, 2018: A press conference was hosted by Cold Lake, Alberta on February 8, 2018 to announce “shortlisted” teams ready to start operations in the 2018- 2019 hockey season. Ron White, WPHA International Expansion Representative- Derek Prue and Seattle Totems owner (a US divisional team in the WSHL) - Gordon Whitaker all attended. The WSHL’s main priority, as stated by the League and Divisional Representatives- is to develop players and get them to the next stage in their hockey and/or academic career. “We wanted to improve our league’s level of play and compete for college spots, so we made our own rules. Last year on my team in Long Beach, we had five Canadian 20-year-olds that were aged out and wanted to keep playing. All five continue to play hockey for the University of Arkansas,” explained White. (Ron White, Cold Lake, Alberta February 8, 2018) At the WSHL’s December 2017 College Showcase, held annually in Las Vegas and growing larger every year – 111 college scouts attended and handed out 160 college or professional commitments out of 250 eligible players.

    Belgian Catholic Relations with “Others” in Western Canada, 1880-1940 CORNELIUS J. JAENEN University of Ottawa Belgians arrived in western Canada when the Catholic hierarchy was largely francophone, identified with selective immigration and an ideology of agriculturalism. Francophone Catholics were the dominant European element in the west in the fur trade and initial settlement periods. Following the Red River resistance movement and the creation of the province of Manitoba in 1870, the Catholic Church sought to retain its prominent role through the repatriation of Franco-Americans and the recruitment of francophone European Catholic agricultural settlers. This immigration effort extended to Belgium, perceived as an orthodox Catholic realm, populated by two ethnic groups – Walloons and Flemings – and the home of the Séminaire Anglo-Belge of Bruges and the American College of the University of Louvain that trained clergy specifically for North America. The resulting emigration did not always correspond to the clerical vision in the Canadian west. The majority of early French-speaking Walloon immigrants, for example, were more often involved in coal mining than farming and their religious views and practices usually were controversial. On the other hand, the Flemish-speakers were interested in taking up homesteads, or establishing themselves as dairy farmers near St. Boniface/Winnipeg. These Flemings were conservative Catholics, a number who also spoke French, but they were not the first choice of the colonizing clergy who wanted francophones. The immigration agents who worked with the clergy were interested in maintaining a francophone Historical Papers 2007: Canadian Society of Church History 18 Belgian Catholic Relations with “Others” in Western Canada Catholic balance with the incoming anglophone settlers from Ontario and immigrants such as the Icelanders, Mennonites and Doukhobors.
