The empathy based program introduces the concept of disability to children at a young age. Using direct, interactive workshops led by a person with a disability themselves, Just Like You™ challenges misconceptions surrounding disability and provides a new lens for seeing disability in a positive, affirmative way. Just Like You is offered to elementary schools at no cost. Variety Alberta brought the Just Like You program to Canada from New South Wales Australia in the summer of 2018. With some revisions to fit a Canadian audience and minor content modifications, we ran a pilot in Cochrane in the fall with delivery to two schools (Fireside Elementary School and Elizabeth Barrett Elementary School). For our pilot, we delivered the program to 819 children and 62 teachers/teacher aides/Administration. The Just Like You program was fully launched in January 2019 and for the remainder of the 2018-2019 school year, was delivered to an additional 2693 children and 202 teachers in the communities of Cochrane; Rocky View County; Rocky View and Calgary. Schools Delivered To (2019): Glenbow Elementary (Cochrane) Westbrook School (Cochrane) Ralph McCall (Airdrie) AE Bowers (Airdrie) Heloise Lorimer School (Airdrie) Langdon Elementary (Langdon) Eric Harvie School (Calgary) Impact of Program We have nothing but positive feedback from schools who have received the program and have received letters of thanks from the schools for choosing them to deliver our program to. In addition, we have learned that schools have continued the messaging of inclusion and belonging into their classrooms in various ways: Cochrane Specific Schools: At Fireside school, one teacher had the children do a mural on the wall with pictures that they made on celebrating differences in their classroom.

  • Cardston-Taber-Warner
    Alberta Provincial Electoral Divisions Cardston-Taber-Warner Compiled from the 2011 Census of Canada and National Household Survey Introduction This report presents the statistical profile for the Provincial Electoral Division (PED) of Cardston-Taber-Warner. This profile is based on the electoral boundaries as defined by the Alberta Electoral Divisions Act, Chapter E-4.2, 2010. A PED is a territorial unit represented by an elected Member to serve in the Alberta Provincial Legislative Assembly. Data in this report have been specially tabulated from Statistics Canada’s 2011 Census of Canada and the 2011 National Household Survey, by allocation of Statistics Canada block face reference points to PEDs. These data include the following characteristics: age, sex, marital status, household types, language, Aboriginal identity, ethnic origin, place of birth, mobility, dwelling characteristics, education, labour force activity and income. The global non-response rate (GNR) for the PED of Cardston-Taber-Warner is 32.4%. The GNR combines both complete non-response (household) and partial non-response (question) into a single rate. The GNR is an indicator of data quality, where a smaller GNR suggests more accuracy. When the GNR is 50% or above, the data are suppressed. The GNR is identified for each region. A higher GNR indicates the need for user caution. Users are advised to refer to the endnotes of this PED profile for further information regarding data quality and definitions.

  • POPULATION of BOW ISLAND 2025 People
    The community of Bow Island received its first families in 1900. In February 1910, the village of Bow Island was formed and on February 1st of 1912 the village was declared the Town of Bow Island. The town of Bow Island was one of the first towns in the province of Alberta to have natural gas wells and operated them until the franchise was sold to a private company. The community of Bow Island suffered through the depression years, as did all the communities in Western Canada. In the early 1950’s irrigation was extended to the Bow Island area. The Town of Bow Island doubled in population when irrigation water finally flowed through the ditches. 110,000 acres of highly productive lands surround the Town of Bow Island. Some of the most modern irrigation systems in the world are located in the area. The first pivot sprinkler system in Canada was erected on a farm in close proximity to Bow Island in 1961. The first linear sprinkler systems in Canada were put in- to operation in the Bow Island area. A completely automated distribution system was installed in 1982 by the St. Mary’s River Irrigation District (SMRID) This system is known as the lateral 12 system and has been toured by groups from around the world. Bow Island has become a vibrant agricultural community with many agri-processing industries located here, such as: Bow Island Dry Edible Bean Plant and Alberta Sunflower Seeds Ltd. (SPITZ) TOWN OF BOW ISLAND The story has it that Bow Island was named for an island in a bend of “bow” in the South Saskatchewan River directly north of town, where river boats used to unload coal in the early years.
