  • The Impact of Sport, Physical Activity and Recreation in Alberta
    The Impact of Sport, Physical Activity and Recreation in Alberta April 2020 Executive Summary: As a society Alberta is undergoing unprecedented changes due to COVID- 19, and as we look both to crisis responses right now and forward to recovery and relaunch strategies in the future, it is imperative that the sport, recreation, and physical activity (SPAR) sector be a foundation of both. Alberta is a hub for world-class services for people of all ages, genders, backgrounds and abilities, and now is a time to draw upon these organizations and community leaders to guide our recovery and ensure equitable access to health for all. Provincial investment in SPAR currently lags woefully behind other provinces, despite the high value Albertans place on being physically active in their daily lives. Renewed investment to build a strong SPAR sector will quickly and significantly aid the economic, health, and social impact of Albertans as the province recovers from COVID-19. SPAR is essential to the wellbeing of Albertans. The sectors builds coping skills and supports social and community connections that build whole population mental and physical wellness The SPAR sector: Creates jobs and is an income generator in Alberta Including both sport and recreation, the SPAR sector contributes as much as 2% to Alberta GDP and supports more than 3.5% of total employment. Provides considerable value to Albertans in their daily lives More than 82% of Albertans believe that sport contributes to an improved quality of life. Some 24% of adults and 59% of children participate directly in organized sport, while sport has the highest volunteer rate and number of volunteer hours of any other organizations in the non-profit sector.

  • Scott Stanton, Vocals and Guitar Dave Lang, Vocals and Guitar Louis Sadava, Bass and Vocals Current Swell Are Done with Talking
    Scott Stanton, vocals and guitar Dave Lang, vocals and guitar Louis Sadava, bass and vocals Current Swell are done with talking. “If this is our time, why don’t we take it?” singer Scott Stanton sings on Current Swell’s newest album. “If this is our life, why would we waste it talking the night away?” The band have been talking for almost a decade, now, and — make no mistake — talking well at that. And people have been listening intently for just as long. After winning the (102.7 FM) Peak Performance Project in 2011, fans all across the world took notice of the Vancouver Island-based band and their West Coast rock sound. The band’s success has been based off their ability to talk in profound and uplifting ways, whether about unconditional love (‘Young and Able’), the cycle of life and death (‘When To Talk and When To Listen’), or fame and success (‘Keys To The Kingdom’). Their talking has led them to sold-out tours in North America, Brazil, and Europe, with thousands of tickets sold across four continents and well over 50 million streams worldwide. But now, Current Swell say, the band is finished with talking. Why talk, anyway, when you can shout, stomp, and sway? Swell do all of the above on their latest album, and the result is a piece of work that roars with energy and bristles with the sound of a band making music that they love. This energy is nothing new for Swell. For as long as they’ve played music, it has been manifested in their breakneck and bombastic live performances that have thrilled audiences from Austria to Australia, Seattle to São Paulo, and everywhere in between.
