However, today there is widespread acknowledgement that the management of cultural heritage resources needs to be brought into large-scale planning and management processes in an integrated and holistic manner. This is particularly true in protected areas, which not only contain significant cultural heritage resources, but are also often mandated to conserve these resources and can benefit significantly from the effort. -
AWA Response to Castle Park Plan
ALBERTA WHITEWATER ASSOCIATION Water Recreation in Castle Park The new Castle Provincial Park and Castle Wildland Provincial Park proposed by the Government of Alberta will bring changes to recreational activities in southwestern Alberta. The Alberta Whitewater Association (AWA) including its member clubs and paddlers have a long history of paddling the lakes, rivers and creeks in the region. Maintaining access to the paddling opportunities while respecting the environmental integrity of the region are critical goals for the AWA when reviewing the plan for the new Parks. The AWA has 3 paddling clubs in southwest Alberta, the Waterlogged Kayak Club, the Oldman River Canoe Kayak Club in Lethbridge and the Pinch-o-Crow Creekers in Pincher Creek and Crowsnest Pass. The area is the host for the largest whitewater paddling event in western Canada, the 3 Rivers Whitewater Rendezvous. This event has been held outside the Park on the May long weekend for almost 20 years at the Castle River Rodeo Grounds campground. The Alberta Freestyle Kayak Association also holds one of its annual events, the Carbondale Creek Race, on the 5 Alive rapid each year. Paddlers come from all over Alberta, BC and Saskatchewan to paddle in southwest Alberta during the short paddling season each year. Paddling activities by their very nature have a small environmental footprint on the landscape. Human powered watercraft traversing on lakes and rivers are uniQue to recreation in the following ways: - the water trails that paddlers travel across already exist as part of the natural landscape - paddlers do not leave footprints in the river and the boats do not impact the terrain they cross over - water travel is a protected right under Canadian and Alberta law - fish and wildlife may be temporarily displaced but are not permanently affected by paddlers - most other recreational users are not inconvenienced or disturbed by the travel of paddlers along the river. -
Placing the Cardston Temple in Early Mormon Temple Architectural History
PLACING THE CARDSTON TEMPLE IN EARLY MORMON TEMPLE ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY By Amanda Buessecker A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in Art History Carleton University May 2020 Supervisor: Peter Coffman, Ph.D. Carleton University ii Abstract: The Cardston temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints represents a drastic shift in temple architecture of the early Mormon faith. The modern granite structure was designed not to show a mere difference of aesthetic taste, but as an embodiment of the evolving relationship between the Mormon pioneers and the American government. Earlier temples, erected in the nineteenth century throughout the valleys of Utah, were constructed by Mormon pioneers at a time when the religious group desired to separate themselves from the United States physically, politically, and architecturally. When the temple was built in Cardston, Alberta (1913-1923), it was a radical departure from its medievalist predecessors in Utah. The selected proposal was a modern Prairie-school style building, a manifestation of Utah’s recent interest in integrating into American society shortly after being admitted to the Union as a state in 1896. iii Contents Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 1 Part I: A Literature Review ........................................................................................................ 5 A Background for Semiotics ................................................................................................. -

Rural Economy Project Report
RURAL ECONOMY A Random Utility Analysis of Southern Alberta Sportfishing T. Peters, W.L. Adamowicz and P.C. Boxall Project Report 95-02 PROJECT REPORT Department of Rural Economy Faculty of Agriculture, Forestry, And Home Economics A Random Utility Analysis of Southern Alberta Sportfishing T. Peters, W.L. Adamowicz, and P.C. Boxall Project Report 95-02 The authors are: Research Assistant, Department of Rural Economy, University of Alberta, Associate Professor, Department of Rural Economy, University of Alberta, and Non-timber Valuation Economist, Canadian Forest Service, Edmonton. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We thank Frank Bishop and Della Clish of the Alberta Fish and Wildlife Division for important suggestions concerning sportfishing in southern Alberta and technical assistance. We also welcome the interest of Trout Unlimited in supporting the study. We gratefully acknowledge the Alberta Fish and Wildlife Division and the Fisheries Enhancement Fund for funding this project. PREFACE This is the third report resulting from the study: "A Socioeconomic Evaluation of Sportsfishing Activity in Southern Alberta." The first report dealt with general results from the survey, while the second focused specifically on the impacts of the Oldman River Dam on recreational fishing in the Crowsnest area. This, the third report, examines the economics of fishing in a more regional framework, and investigates a number of behavioural assumptions in deriving non-market values associated with fishing in the area. A number of resource management scenarios are examined in this study. These were chosen with no particular knowledge of actual or contemplated management actions. However, the treatment of these scenarios illustrate how a vast number of management alternatives which result in changes in environmental or recreation quality could be examined in an economic context. -
February Newsletter
Winter continues to cover Kananaskis in a blanket of snow. Have you been out enjoying it? If You Admire the View, You Are a Friend Of Kananaskis For the rest of 2013, the Friends Newsletter will feature wildlife camera photographs from Kananaskis Country. The photos were provided by John Paczkowski, the Park Ecologist for Kananaskis Country. Many of the photographs are part of research programs in the various areas of Kananaskis. The one above is a cougar attempting to steal a beaver carcass hung in a tree. These carcasses are used to attract and photograph wolverines, and the barbed wire you see allows collection of hair samples for DNA identity testing. If you have not met John, you should. He has spoken at several Friends events, and has one of the best jobs in the world, tracking wildlife movements in and around K-Country. Beside which, John's a great guy and we thank him for his generosity in supplying these photos. Trail Care 2013 Update By Rosemary Power, Program CoOrdinator With the spring just around the corner, we are looking ahead to our 2013 Trail Care season with TransAlta as the title sponsor for this years program. Thanks to you, our hard working volunteers, we will be providing trail maintenance and construction in a wide variety of locations in and around Kananaskis Country. As in previous years, our main trail work days will be the second Saturday of each month but additional days, both weekday and weekend, will likely be created. Work usually ranges from pruning back bushes growing alongside the trail, through to digging drainage channels, sawing logs (by hand) and splitting rock or moving boulders. -
A Prevalence Study of Multiple Sclerosis in the Crowsnest Pass Region of Southern Alberta
A Prevalence Study of Multiple Sclerosis in the Crowsnest Pass Region of Southern Alberta G.M. Klein, M.S. Rose and T.P. Seland Abstract: Reports of a high prevalence rate for multiple sclerosis in Southern Alberta led to an epidemiologic study of this disease in the Crowsnest Pass and Cardston regions. In Cardston, the prevalence rate for multiple sclerosis was 88 per 100,000. In the Crowsnest Pass, the prevalence rate was 217 per 100,000. Previous epidemiologic studies of the prevalence rate of multiple sclerosis in Western Canada have shown rates between 93 and 111 per 100,000. Two prevalence studies of multi ple sclerosis in Barrhead County, Alberta and Westlock County, Alberta show prevalence rates of 196 and 201 per 100,000. The prevalence rate in the Crowsnest Pass is comparable to the prevalence in Barrhead County and Westlock County, Alberta. However, there is no statistically significant differ ence between prevalence rates in the Cardston and Crowsnest Pass regions and our overall feeling is that the results of studies of small populations should be interpreted with caution. Resume: Etude de prevalence de la sclerose en plaques dans la region de Crowsnest Pass dans le sud de I'Alberta. Une etude epidfimiologique de la sclerose en plaques (SEP) dans le sud de I'Alberta a 6t6 entrepnse a la suite de rapports faisant etat d'une prevalence 61evee de cette maladie dans la region de Crowsnest Pass et de Cardston. Dans Cardston, le taux de prevalence de la SEP etait de 88 par 100,000 habitants. Dans Crowsnest Pass, le taux de prevalence etait de 217 par 100,000 habitants. -
