The grade 9 class will be holding a White Elephant Sale in the spring. If you find any treasures during your fall cleaning, please bring them into the schoolNews from the Milo l's and 2's I don't want to panic anyone, but did you know that in just six short weeks we'll be into the Christmas school break?!! With Christmas just around the corner, we have already decided that December 9th will be the day we present our Christmas production so be sure to mark that date on your calendar. While I am on the topic of Christmas, this year the Milo School Staff and students will be participating in Operation Christmas Child. We will be packing shoeboxes with items suitable for children and then sending them to destinations in Central and South America where the hurricanes have been so devastating this fall. A sincere thank you to all who supported or are supporting us in this cause. Last Christmas item, I promise, the grade 1 and 2 class have been invited to sing at the Country Christmas Dinner on November 30th, so hopefully we will see you there! On Thursday, October 21st, all of the Milo staff and students boarded four buses and enjoyed the day touring several important sites on the Siksika First Nation Reserve. Our first stop was the Siksika Resource Development Limited where we had a 30-minute tour. This building houses the offices of the oil, gas and environmental industries all of which are growing on the reserve. Next we met at the Band Office and enjoyed a tour of the Business Council Chambers. Third stop was the Arbour, a very interesting wooden structure where Pow Wows and other important ceremonial functions are housed. Then it was off to the Sports Plex for another tour. This is where we lunched also, and after lunch we were treated to stories from two elders who shared with us what it was like when they were children attending school. Last stop was the Okan ranch where in the past the Blackfoot people held their sun dances. We learned that "oki" means hello and that "Siksika*' means Blackfoot. We learned a little bit about the four colours on the Siksika logo. Blue represents the river (sometimes the sky), yellow the sun and green is the land. A sincere thank you to James Red Crow for organizing this event with the help of our tour guide Eulalia. A very big thank you to our bus drivers: Penny, Arvid, Wendy and Roxanne for getting us safely to our destinations and home again. Mrs. Patti Nicol-Pharo, our school counselor, was able to accompany us on our trip and she commented on what well behaved students we have at Milo School. She has been on many field trips and was very impressed with our well-mannered students. Now on to the holiday that is second only to Christmas (from a child's perspective)—Halloween! On the afternoon of Thursday, October 28th, the Milo students and staff held their Halloween and costume parties in their respective classrooms. (Someone recently reminded me that it was this week last year that we had a “snow day" at Milo School courtesy of Mother Nature and the Halloween activities were all cancelled.) This year our afternoon activities included a costume parade, a tour through the haunted house, a craft activity and juice and snacks. We also had each grade vote for their favourite costume from among their peers. The grade 1 winner was Desperado Chett, and the grade 2 winner was the “homemade big can of Adrienne Raid'. A big thank you to Mealane for preparing and serving the food. The Dracula dip was a favourite! Thank you to the parents (Singer, Donna, 6-Nel and Neal) who came in to assist with make-up and costumes. Thanks also to 6-Nel for supplying the paper cups, napkins and plates with the Halloween motifs. Oh yes, and thank you Cynthia, Adrienne and Miriam who surprised and treated the 142 and the 344 rooms to giant cookies! Despite the full moon, I think the students managed to exercise enough self-control to contain their excitement to a “slow boil" so the afternoon was manageable and enjoyed by everyone. We will begin to practice the first week of November for our part in the Remembrance Day Service on the 10th at the cenotaph. Hope to see you there. -Written and submitted by Mrs. Phair±)'L =S3£ Chinook rppniT union un Lomond Savings Box 242, Lomond, Alberta, TQL 1G0 Phone (403) 792-3763 Fax (403) J-f t w * Looks Like Winter is Here!

USED OIL is used in the production of asphalt. OIL FILTERS are shredded and heated to a molten state. Then reused as material for other metal products such as rebar, nails, and wire. ALUMINUM CANS are compressed into bales. Shredders chop the bales into pieces, magnetic separators remove steel and iron scrap. Paint and coatings are removed by hot air, then the cans are turned into molten aluminum. From an empty can to a full new one in your hand takes six to eight weeks. GLASS is used three ways. Glass beads are added to paint for marking highways. Only clear glass can be used for this product. "GlassSand", the name for the processed mixture used for fibreglass insulation. This product uses all colors of glass. The third is new containers, which require all colors of glass. MILK JUGS are the most versatile and valuable for plastic recycling. Some of the many products made from milk jugs are plastic pipe, drainage tile, flower pots, plastic lumber for decking and picnic tables, new detergent bottles, lubricating oil pails, toys, cases, and other formed plastic products. OIL JUGS are made into new containers, plastic flower pots, plastic pipe, guardrails, fence posts, and plastic patio furniture. PAINT is separated between latex and oil base in large drums, and used as industrial primer. 750 kilograms (1650 lbs.) of waste per person per year goes into Alberta's Landfills YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! USED TIRES are actually quite versatile and more research is being done in regard to tractor and heavy equipment tires. Some of the products being made now are roofing tile, rubber stucco, interlocking bricks and flooring tile, rubber matting, crumb for playgrounds and athletic fields. NEWSPAPERS become new newsprint, and molded food packaging such as egg trays and fruit packaging. OFFICE PAPER is the most valuable. It's used in the manufacture of recycled printing and writing papers, and tissue products. MIXED PAPER is an assortment of all paper found In households and offices. It is used In the production of molded egg and food trays, and also used in the production of some building materials.“No, Grandpa,” our 6 year old replied, “It was a bass.” *********************** I over heard some preschoolers discussing their heritage. One with roots in Italy said he was Italian. Another said his Mother was French. A third noted, “My family is from the country. So I must be Ranch.” ************************** Our great niece was describing her kindergarten ‘boyfriend’. When I asked if he was tall, dark and handsome, she replied, “No, Sam’s hair is vanilla.” *************************** As my shoeless daughter was running across the gravel ,1 asked why she was walking so slowly. “Because,” she sighed, “I’m wearing my bald feet.” ************************** “Mom’s putting her masks on to scare us,” my nephew,4, informed me as my sister applied her mascara. **************************** As Compiled by M.

Reverend Fordow Crtfuvch Once there was an old shoe cobbler who dreamt one Christmas Eve that Jesus would come to visit him the next day. The dream was so real that he was convinced it would come true. So the next morning he got up and went out and cut green boughs and decorated his little cobbler shop and got all ready for Jesus' visit. He was so sure that Jesus was going to come that he just sat down and waited for him. The hours passed and Jesus didn't come. But an old man came. He came inside for a moment to get warm out of the winter cold. As the cobbler talked with him he noticed the holes in the old man's shoes, so he reached up on the shelf and got him a new pair of shoes. He made sure they fit and that his socks were dry and sent him on his way. Still he waited. But Jesus didn't come. An old woman came. A woman who hadn't had a decent meal in two days. They sat and visited for a while, and then he prepared some food for her to eat. He gave her a nourishing meal and sent her on her way. Then he sat down to wait for Jesus. But Jesus still didn't come. Then he heard a little boy crying in front .of his shop. He went out and talked to the boy and discovered that the boy had become separated from his parents and didn't know howto get home. So the cobbler put on his coat, took the boy by the hand and led him home. When he came back-to his little shoe shop, it was almost dark and the streets were emptied of people. And then in a moment of despair he seemed to hear a voice saying,” O shoe cobbler, lift up your heart. I kept my word. Three times I knocked at your friendly door. Three times my shadow fell across your floor. I was the man with bruised feet. I was the woman you gave to eat. I was the boy on the homeless street.” Jesus had come. The cobbler just didn't realize it. One of the many wonderful stories told around Christmas to make us think about the times when, perhaps, Jesus has visited us - and I wonder what kind of reception he got Did we welcome him in, like the cobbler did, or were we too busy, too caught up in the world to recognize that the Prince of Peace was here with us? Make time for Jesus in your life. A good start would be to attend a church service Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. He is the Reason for the Season after all.

The Village of Milo will have a general meeting in the Milo Community Hall on Monday, December 12th at 7:00 PM. We will provide a brief overview of village business and welcome public input on 2017 capital projects. While we realize that December can be a busy month for many, we are hoping to get a good turnout for these meetings. As a reminder, all unpaid 2016 property taxes will be considered in arrears after December 31, 2016. While interest is incurred on current year taxes once the tax payment deadline has passed, tax arrears continue to incur interest penalty charges every three months. The Village of Arrowwood is pushing ahead with a water treatment plant upgrade, as well as a sanitary/sewer rehabilitation project. It was decided by the village council that MPE Engineering should be hired to complete this work for Arrowwood. The sanitary rehabilitation project in Milo is nearly complete and I would like to thank MPE Engineering and Shawne Excavating and Trucking Ltd. for their dedicated work. Both villages are looking at road and sidewalk projects in 2017. It is hard to believe that another year is almost past. I would like to thank all village employees for the work they do to maintain Arrowwood and Milo. Their dedicated work on general administration and regular operations of the water treatment facilities is essential. We are fortunate to have such good individuals working to provide services. Also, we can thank our village workers for hanging holiday lights in anticipation of the Christmas season. Their efforts have kept both municipalities looking neat and trim throughout the year. On behalf of the Villages of Arrowwood and Milo I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, as well as a happy, safe and prosperous New Year.

Louis Myers: - Has not attended any committee meetings since the last council meeting. - Wondered if Administration had assisted the library with applying for an insurance claim under their insurer, AMSC. The CAO responded that this was not necessary given that the library's builder has taken full responsibility for all structural issues to date. - Wondered if Administration could provide an update on the playground maintenance works as directed by council in the last minutes. The CAO responded that Don Robbie had sourced our some materials for this project which would cost approximately $280.00 from UFA in Vulcan. It is thought that the Lions Club might be willing to purchase the materials for the playground. To date Don still has some time that he can give the village and remain within budget. Given the potential liability risk, as well as the availability of good weather and Don's time, the CAO directed him to proceed with the repairs. - Wondering if Administration had updated its shared costs with Arrowwood. The CAO explained that he was working on it this week. Regular Meeting of Village of Milo Council on Tuesday, October 18, 2016 Page 1 - Wondering if Administration had issued invoices for the new water and sewer services given that Mr. Mingo had asked him about it. CAO had explained that these had been issued and that he had delayed issuing them given some of the other matters that were being ironed out with Shawne Excavating. b. Barry Monner: - Attended a regional subdivision and development appeal board hearing over a Hutterite Colony near Carmangay. Large turnout and well organized arguments. - Vulcan Business Development Society and Vulcan Tourism have hired a new manager to work with both societies. Res. No. 2016-10-18-08: Moved by Deputy Mayor Schroeder that Council accept the Councillor Reports as presented for information. CARRIED 6. NEW BUSINESS a. Landscaping Village Boulevard Res. No. 2016-10-18-09: Moved by Mayor Monner that Council not approve the placement of concrete slabs on the village boulevard at 220 Centre Street for reasons of liability risk and potential issues regarding roadway maintenance.

Vulcan County McGregor Reservoir Area Structure Plan - CAO explained that the county is looking at updating the area structure plan that will inform all land use decisions around the lake as well as define the village's urban fringe. The CAO attended the county's open house on the new Area Structure Plan on October 12th. - Email correspondence with Vulcan County administration, including a copy of the proposed plan and comments provided by the village's municipal planner were distributed to council for their review. - Discussion. c.

No. 2016-10-18-10: Moved by Councillor Myers that the Milo Hotel provide the village with a development permit application form detailing the exact dimensions of the proposed veranda, the footing of the structure, the proposed placement of the village's sidewalk, the roof pitch, as well as how it will be attached to the hotel and finished, including the type of shingles.

Pretty soon we may be able to eliminate the middle man (me), and just have 3etty Smith write these articles herself. She has contributed another clipped out article and I found out where she gets them from. It is the senior's paper published once a month in Saskatchewan, so it just has to be good. The Cow and the Pig A wealthy man was talking with a friend one day and lamented, "People don't seem to like me. They say I'm selfish and stingy. And yet, in my last will and testament, I have donated all that I own to charitable causes." His friend replied, "Well, maybe the story of the cow and the pig has a lesson for you. The pig came to the cow and complained, 'People always talk about your friendliness. I know you are friendly, you do give them milk. But they get much much more from me. ' They get ham and bacon and lard and they even cook my feet. And yet they do not say kind things about me. Why is that?' The cow thought it over and said, 'Perhaps it is because I give while I am still alive.' It is always a pleasure to receive a gift at any time, but it is even more pleasurable when you have the opportunity to thank the giver and say how much the gift means to you. The opportunity for giving is always there, but we say perhaps later would be better, and then, for whatever reason, later never comes. Me have so much in our lives to be thankful for, we have so much in our lives that we need to share. There are people in need throughout the world and even here in Vulcan County. Please take every opportunity to give while you are still alive...to see the good that your gift can do. See you in church! Church Services at Hope Church July 13th 9:00 July 27th 9:00MILO SCHOOL NEWS Well, here we are at the end of another school year. June, as usual, has flown by. It was a month filled with field trips and exams. On Tuesday, June 3 the grades 1 to 6 students visited Heritage Park. The students enjoyed the displays, the rides and particularly the ice cream treat. After being back to regular classes for Wednesday, on Thursday the elementary students were off to the Elementary Track Meet held in Vulcan. When they returned to the school their chests were covered with ribbons. We were very proud of not only how well Milo students performed at the events, but also of how well they behaved throughout the day.MILO SCHOOL NEWS The junior high students enjoyed adding to their phys. ed. experiences as they ventured to Lethbridge to swim and test their skills at archery. After some instruction, the stu­dents practiced their archery skills and ended the experi­ence with balloons for their targets. In the end, the bal­loons all got popped by arrows and there were several bulls’ eyes made.MILO SCHOOL NEWS During the last 3 weeks of school Grade 3,6 and 9 stu­dents wrote Provincial Achievement Tests. We are very proud of all of these students as we know they all did their best. Milo & District Recreation Board, Milo School, Arrow- wood Co-operative Association.

Also, thanks to Arvid Thompson and the Lahd amily for barbecuing burgers, to Mealane Deitz for mak- lg the burger sauce and to Charity Lewis and Deanna leather for their help in the kitchen. Lunch was deli- ious! fter lunch it was time to celebrate our students’ accom- lishments with the presentation of awards. Thank-you to ie following sponsors of the awards: Stumpf Family, Hol- boff Family, Umschied Family, Mitchell Family, Milo Li­as Club, Alberta Teachers’ Association, Milo Ag Society, lilo School Parent Council, Milo School Students’ Union, This is not only the last Can-Opener article I am writing for this year, but the last one I will be writing as the princi­pal of Milo School. It has been a very great pleasure to have been the principal and a teacher in Milo School for the last two years. I am looking forward to retirement, but will definitely miss all of the students whom I have gotten to know so well. I have been very fortunate to work with a great staff. My job would have been far more difficult if it weren’t for my right hand person, Tammy Lahd. She knows the students, the parents and the community so well. Thanks to Lynn Burgess for all of the extra time and care she has put in and the rest of my team, Noami Sne- gove, who will be getting married this summer and mov­ing to Edmonton, David Bragg, who has a full time teach­ing position in Arrowwood next year, Rebecca Holgate and Frances Thompson who have made my job easier. I would also like to thank the parents for all of the support they have provided their children and me over the past two years. As far as the community goes, I can't say enough. I tell everyone I meet that they will never find a more supportive community than Milo. It has been an amazing two years! I know Milo School will continue to flourish under the leadership of Jason Neville who will be the principal here next year. Many, many thanks for eve­rything! Have a wonderful summer! Clarice GilbertDumbest Questions Asked by Banff Park Tourists (Yes, they're ALL TRUE as heard at the information kiosks manned by Parks Canada staff!) 1. How do the elk know they're supposed to cross at the "Elk Crossing" signs? 2. At what elevation does an elk become a moose? 3. Tourist: "How do you pronounce 'Elk'? Park Information Staff:" 'Elk'" Tourist: "Oh”. 4. Are the bears with collars tame? 5. Is there anywhere I can see the bears pose? 6. Is it okay to keep an open bag of bacon on the picnic table, or should I store it in my tent? 7. Where can I find Alpine Flamingos? 8.1 saw an animal on the way to Banff today - could you tell me what it was? 9. Are there birds in Canada? 25. Is that two kilometers by foot or by car? 26. Don't you Canadians know anything? 27. Where do you put the animals at night? 28. Tourist: "How do you get your lakes so blue?" Park staff: "We take the water out in the winter and paint the bottom". Tourist: "Oh!" Fast on his feet A man walked into the produce section of his local supermarket, and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy working in that department told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. 10. Did I miss the turnoff for Canada? 11. Where does Alberta end and Canada begin? 12. Do you have a map of the State of Jasper? 13. Is this the part of Canada that speaks French, or is that Saskatchewan? 14. if I go to B.C., do I have to go through Ontario? 15.

Where can I get my husband really, REALLY, lost?? "Canada, sir," the boy replied. "Well, why did you leave Canada?", the manager asked.

The Rec EPORTStumping Dear Abby (Dear Abby admitted she was at a total loss to answer these...) Dear Abby: What can I do about all the sex, nudity, language and violence on my VCR? Dear Abby: I have a man I never could trust. He cheats so much I'm not even sure this baby I'm carrying is his. Dear Abby: I am a twenty-three-year-old liberated woman who has been on the pill for two years. It's getting expensive, and I think my boyfriend should share half the cost, but I don't know him well enough to discuss money with him. Dear Abby: I suspected that my husband had been fooling around, and when I confronted him with the evidence he denied everything and said it would never happen again. Should I believe him? Dear Abby: Our son writes that he is taking Judo. Why would a boy who was raised in a good Christian home turn against his own religion? Dear Abby: i joined the Navy to see the world. I've seen it. Now, how do I get out? Dear Abby: My 40-year-old son has been paying a psychiatrist $50 an hour every week for two-and-a-half years. Is he crazy? Dear Abby: Do you think it would be all right if I gave my doctor a little gift? I tried for years to get pregnant and couldn't, but he finally did it. Dear Abby: My mother is mean and short-tempered. Do you think she is going through her mental pause? Dear Abby: You told some woman whose husband had lost all interest in sex to send him to a doctor.

The Town of Vulcan will be coming on Mondays to review the running of the Water Treatment Plant until we have received our operating license. The snow fence in the park has been removed, except for two stakes due to them being frozen in the ground.

Results of the Census are: Total Village Residents 121 Break down: Number between the ages of 18 - 64 66 Number over the age of 65 25 Number under the age of 18 30 The Municipal Administrator is still proceedmg with the change in title of the Bittorf Property to the Village. Council discussed the Street Improvement Project. The tenders have all been received, and Lee Maher Engineering is requesting our acceptance of the lowest tender of 71,186 from Carmack Enterprises. Council discuss the problem that we are now having with regards to the entrance to the Village. It would appear that we were incorrectly advised that we only required 3/4 consent. Since there is not 100% consent for the transfer of this section of the road, to the County of Vulcan, we can not proceed with the original plans. Lee Maher is to be contacted, and advised of the changes, so that new drawings can be made, and submitted to the County for approval. This land is in the County of Vulcan boundaries, therefore it is technically up to the County of Vulcan to acquire and not the Village. We have discussed with the County of Vulcan about reducing the speed on Highway 542 the passes by Milo. If this intersection is changed to a proper T intersection, the speed limit will have to be reduced for safety reasons.

Everyone is welcome to attend!!Terry Fox Run Milo has once again raised the top amount per capita for the Terry Fox Run in Canada. Jo-Anne Wilson and Joanne Monner had the honor of hearing Betty Fox speak at a Terry Fox Run workshop in Calgary. She travels across the country and around the world for 5-7 months of the year telling Terry's story along the way. She should also be counted as one of Canada's heroines with her continued devotion to this very worthwhile cause. She stated that due to the fund raising campaign of the annual Terry Fox Run, Canada is now one of the top countries in the world for cancer research whereas when Terry was being treated, Canada was very near the bottom. The percentage of government money towards cancer research has not increased over this time. The reason they split off from the Canadian Cancer Society was because too much money was going towards administration. By forming the Terry Fox Foundation they have gone from spending 35% on administration down to 15%. The goal is to reduce this to 12% by the year 2000. Our annual run will be held on Thursday, Sept. 11th, 1997.

The process began with a request from Joanne Monner, Milo Library Manager to have the Milo Art Society replace the existing mural, a 2017 com­munity project sponsored by the library and Alberta Culture Days. The existing mural is quite weathered. It really has taken a village to create the mural: • Milo Ag Society provided the funding for the materials. • Pete Silbemagel supplied the lumber. • Mike Collins designed and built the mural fence. • The fence was primed, base coated and prepped for painting by Art Society members Alison Collins, Michele Tiegen, Joanne Monner, Kathy Catt, Levona Dixon and Tracy Mozill. • Mike Collins, Ian Godkin, Dean Folk, Mike Garant, Ron Gravelie and Loren Mozill moved the fence from Mike’s shop to Don's shop. • Tracy Mozill has been project coordinator responsible for concept, grant request, product research, image research, acquiring materials and reference images, communications (including social media) and scheduling. • Reily Wilson sketched the initial line drawing. • Derek Evernden created the digital image from Reily*s drawing. • Kurt Nelson welded supports to hold the fence. • The digital image was projected onto the fence to create the drawing which was done by Reily Wilson, Marilyn MacArthur, Alison Collins and Tracy Mozill. • The following ten people painted the flower garden mural: Alison Collins, Levona Dixon, Julia Hartigan, Susan Ivers, Jo-Ann Klem, Marilyn MacArthur, Joanne Monner, Tracy Mozill, Kelly Nelson and Reily Wilson. • Alison Collins and Levona Dixon applied the isolation coat. • Don Robbie patiently put up with the group invading his shop over the summer. As of this writing the varnish and installation remain to be done. The mural will be unique in its use of mixed medium. In addition to the painting of a flower garden, it will also include stained glass creations de­signed, constructed and donated by glass artist Michele Tiegen. The actual artwork painted on the mural took about 280 hours, stained glass 50 hours and another 200+ hours for everything aside from the art­work. It took a village to create the mural and we hope the village will enjoy it for many years to come.

As we are faced with an election, I tried to come up with some good Canadian political satire - in print. And failed - miserably. Sure, I can give you a bunch of anti-Justin memes, or news columns, but not much else (particularly regarding the NDP and Greens) that stays out of the genuinely vicious category. At any point in the day, week, or year, there is an abundance of US based humor on a wide variety of Congressmen, Senators, and White House staff and residents. But Canada? Not so much. So, I found and have put forth here an article (from Vanity Fair, but don't hold that against it) on why Canadian humor may be so special, and is unknown as such in the United States. - Cameron Theories abound and conflict and contradict them­selves: Theory 1: There are actually funny Canadians alive today, but all nine of them moved to the U.S.A., and once they got here they renounced their Canadian cultural heritage, the way Mick Jagger renounced his English accent. Mike Myers never makes Mountie jokes. Jim Carrey declines to send up the toonie, Canada’s hilarious two-dollar coin. You have to scour Wikipedia to con­firm the Canadian-ness of Mort Sahl, David Steinberg, Michael J. Fox, Catherine O'Hara, Seth Rogen, the late John Candy and Phil Hartman, and that guy from that sitcom, you know the one. America absorbed Canadian comedians, or, Canadians would say, Canadian comedians absorbed Ameri­ca.* Lome Michaels, the Darth Vader of American comedy, harvests all the comedic talent in his native land as ruthlessly as Major League Baseball loots the Dominican Republic of shortstops. 'The historic Canadian talent diaspora is actually pretty funny in itself, e g., the guy who wrote the music for the Canadian national anthem and then moved Stateside. Theory 2: A distinctive Canadian humor style never had a chance. The British and the Ameri­cans, with their overwhelming cultural power, ex­hausted all the possibilities of English-language humor long before the messy agglomeration of territories and provinces was confederated into a sovereign entity called Canada, just after the U.S. Civil War.** This left Canadian wits bereft of origi­nal material and forced them back on the only potential for risibility left: the condition of being Canadian. Which, given the national psyche, inevi­tably curdled into a pathetically self-deprecating brand of humor, typified by the following: Q: How do you get 26 Canadians out of a swim­ming pool? A: Yell, “Everybody out of the pool!" "The Dominion of Canada was the original name, about as mild a term for a nation as there is, and consciously chosen instead of the more assertive Republic of Canada or United States of Canada. And no fierce eagle or beast of the wild for a mascot—just that chubby, industrious forest rodent, the un-war-like beaver. Theory 3: Canadians are, by history and tem­perament, the opposite of aggressive, and so, unsurprisingly, their humor is defensive; they beat up on themselves before anybody else—i.e., Amer­icans— can do it.*** "'Not aggressive? I'll have you know that the Canadian government secretly formulated “Defence Scheme Num­ber 1," an invasion of the United States, in the early 1920s. From James Madison forward, American politi­cians had so regularly blustered about making a grab for Canadian territory that preparing a pre-emptive counter­strike, should an American invasion ever be actually imminent, seemed only prudent. Theory 4: Canadians have inhaled such deep drafts of Britishness (the Union Jack disappeared from their flag only in 1965) that what there is of a Canadian humor style hews largely to those twin English enthusiasms, parody and satire. It has been sneered that the American idea of satire is a pie in the face; Canadian tastes have always been subtler, as befits a nation that tuned in weekly for decades to smart British comedy shows via the Canadian Broadcasting Corpo­ration, a kind of junior BBC in the best sense. Meanwhile, Americans were doubling up over Milton Berle and Red Skelton and that ilk. Satire also suits the shy Canadian temperament: you can savage your victim while masked in some­body else's identity. Anything t

CW(^xM' November is the month for remembering. 2014 is a special anniversary year. In August, 1914, the world plunged in to the 'war to end all wars'. As we are all too aware, from our experiences of the past 100 years, it was really the start to most of the major conflicts of the 20th century. We don't need to rehash history and try to place blame. None of that will bring honour to a generation of young men who were killed, maimed or wounded on the battlefields of Europe 1914 -1918. In the carnage of the war, there are many examples of individual courage and compassion, countered by the inhumane ways devised to kill humanity. The use of mustard gas in warfare for the first time must rank as one of the most heinous of all time. 100,000 people died and 1,000,000 more were affected by the gassing. The gas did not restrict itself to soldiers, it killed anyone in its path. In the 4 year span of the war, the total casualties were 36 million (16 million died, 20 million wounded). So why on earth would we want remember such a horrible event in the history of the world? “Thosewho cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat That is why we must continue to remember, not only for Remembrance Day, when we pay tribute to those who, at the call of King & Country, laid down their lives for the peace and freedom that we enjoy today, but so that such a conflict may never again take place on earth ever again. "Only the dead have seen the end of war."2 For those millions of maimed and wounded that had to try to return to civilian life following the war's end, there was not even the inadequate assistance given to our present day veterans. Post traumatic stress disorder was not acknowledged, although shell shocked would have been the term used then. Soldiers bear the deepest wounds and scars of war."2 Anyone who took part in the fighting, in any capacity, and lived would have had emotion scars that would never heal. "War is hell. 4 And the Great War was possibly the most hellish of all wars. That is why we must remember it, so that never again should humanity be subject to such carnage. "Lest we forget, Lest we forget."5 (1),(2) Philosopher, essayist, poet, and novelist George Santayana (3) World War II General Douglas MacArthur (4) American Civil War General William Tecumseh Sherman (5) Poet and novelist Rudyard KiplingThe month of October has flown by like a witch on a broom. We have had a very busy month full of activities and learning opportunities. Fire Chief Byron Thompson and Vulcan County Fire Marshall Stuart Larson made a surprise visit to our school for Fire Prevention Week. They initiated the fire alarm and observed us as we made our way out of the school. The ele­mentary students watched a video and talked with Byron and Stuart about the importance of smoke detectors. Thanks to the Milo School Foundation we were able to have the Science in Motion program travel to our school. Our fantastic presenter Jen worked with the different grades doing hands on sci­ence experiments, we even had a mini-planetarium set up in the gym, the 7/8 class learned the science be­hind roller coasters, the grade 9 students made a pickle glow and the 1/2/3 class made ice cream with liquid ni­trogen.The Milo School Foundation also provided funding to have author David A. Poulsen bring his writing workshops to our school. The students really enjoyed the humorous way he shared his love for writing and the creative pro­cess. The volleyball team practiced and played games and fin­ished their season by hosting a one day volleyball tourna­ment. The tournament was a huge success with teams from Arrowwood, Champion, Brant, and Carmangay schools competing. Thanks to Mealane Deitz for organiz­ing the concession and to Leanne Bertschy for helping work the concession. The junior high held elections for student council and we are happy to see such an enthusiastic group take on the leadership of our student body. The student union is now starting the Mom’s Pantry Fundraiser, students will be coming around with order forms or they are available on our website as well. Miloschool.ca Our student council worked hard planning fun activities for our Halloween Celebration at the Milo School. Thanks to Barb and Ian Godkin for the donation of pumpkins for our students to carve into Jack-o’-lanterns.

We are hopeful that driveway access will be corrected back to a normal state of affairs, that proper grades and drainage swales will be installed before drainage becomes a significant issue. The Village of Arrowwood can appreciate the frustration that this delay has caused and it has tried to work with residents to accommodate all access concerns that required an immediate solution. It appears that the Villages of Arrowwood and Milo have found a contractor to undertake some final infrastructure work for 2014. In Arrowwood, water and sewer services needs to be extended to the new Arrowwood Co-op development, along with some ditch grading and the installation of a new fire hydrant. In Milo, a water leak, a fire hydrant repair and some minor roadwork needs to be undertaken. As mentioned last month, the workshop “Finding Agreement” was hosted by Arrowwood and Milo and considered by all who attended to be highly worthwhile. Although designed for municipal officials, it is available for other community groups and organizations. The facilitator, Barbara McNeil, works for the Alberta Energy Regulator but has a longstanding relationship with Alberta Municipal Affairs. She has over twenty years experience as a mediator across a wide range of issues, including senior trainer in the University of Calgary’s Conflict Resolution Program, with experience as a member of the Municipal Government Board and Federal Farm Debt Review Board. Arrowwood and Milo were happy to have participants from both villages, Vulcan County, Town of Vulcan, Village of Carmangay, and diverse range of community associations. On October 2nd, the Village of Milo filed notice of appeal with Vulcan County and the Municipal Government Board (MGB) under section 690 of the Municipal Government Act. This appeal concerns a dispute with Vulcan County over a proposed residential subdivision development that it deems could have a detrimental impact on the village absent inter-municipal co-operation. As legislated, the MGB will open a hearing for this appeal within 60 days of notice being filed.

CARRIED. Ron Marks attend the Council meeting requesting the Village supply water to the new subdivision he has planned for at the Lake. Council advised that if water was supplied to one of these subdivisions then we would have to supply water to the others. Council stated that we have concerns regarding the strain this would put on the Water Treatment Plant during the summer months. Council declined Mr. Ron Marks request for treated water to be supplied to the Lake subdivision, but will look into the possibility ofsupplying raw water. Mr. Marks then advised council that he will be building a single resident on the Hall place, and when this occurs he would like to hook up to Village Water. Council accepted this request. Mayor Bath advised that at the last Solid Waste Authority meeting, she was informed that Milo will be getting their Transfer Station. The Transfer Station is to be in by this summer. The Milo dump will be closed hopefully after the station is in. The chemical dump will then be located at the Transfer Station. The owner of the snow chains that the Village had been using, does not wish to sell them. Council was advised that to put an extension at the Water Plant would cost 284.55 for installation plus 10.35 per month. Council decided this was no feasible. Mike Hingley will be assigned a calling card instead. Council discussed and planned the Village Maintenance Budget. MOVED by Mayor Bath that the Budget be approved. CARRIED.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23 7:00 PB Read "The McIntyre Liar" and view a collection of "In the Mind's Eye" at the library now!Councillors Comments These comments are the way I see things and are not necessarly County ot Vulcan Councillors postion 1 am sorry to report that our new road grader operator A1 Shaw has quit as ot March 1st.so we are looking for a replacement for him. As most of you know John Davidson our shop foreman has taken early retirement and a replacement for him should be in place by March 15th. I believe 3 other employees in the repair shop area will also be gone by June 30th.and not replaced. This is all part of the reorganizing of County staff that was started a year ago or so. We believe, by not having the school bus repair contract that our shop can run more efficiently. We had a fair bit of dicussion about the bus contact but we felt we were not in the commercial repair business. More about this later. County Council approved the capital purchases that were budgeted for and bought under tender. They include one Western Star body job with gravel and sand box, one Western Star tractor and B train style gravel trailer. These are the first Western Star trucks the County has had. They are made in B.C. and were the lowest tender price. Also we purchased a cat grader. We have had very good service from our cat grader and we felt with the amount of roads each machine has had to to cover that reliablity was more important than the initial purchase price. After many years of service these high hour cat machines have been sold for many thousands of dollars more than our used Champions.Several other smaller items were also purchased under tender and all the tender came in under our estimated budget price. Most of the County Councillors are fairly knowledgeable about large equipment values and appreciate the reliablity and performance of the more expensive and better quality machines. So I think we have acquired a very reliable and efficient line of equipment over the years.Down time is very costly and our small inventory does not include any "spare" equipment we can call on. I think a few comments about the school bus contract are in order. I don t think Wayne Davey the County Councillor who also sits on the Palliser school board and represents the part of the County east of Hwy. 23, was at the school board meeting when our letter of termination was delt with. There has always been a lot of Politics involved in the school boards and I think Politics are involved here now.If you throw the first stone carefully you can make the other guy look like the bad guy. The County of Vulcan shop looked after the County busses because under the "county system" of government we were the same organization and now Palliser school division has no real gov't type of association with the County other than they opperate in our County as do other gov't bodys. We are under no obligation in my mind to do any work for them except under the contract we both had in place. We did not blind side them by terminating the contract and 1 feel 4-5 months notice is more than sufficient time for Palliser to make other arrangements. NOTE: Tim Chambers of Armada has been hired as our replacement for A1 Shaw.He starts March 1. Tim has been working for the County as a gravel truck driver.The last month or so he has been operating a road grader in the Champion area.

They were twin brother Pekinese dogs with two very different personalities. My husband, Frank Sugden, and I had retired to Victoria, but we had returned to our former home town of Calgary to care for our friends' dogs while they went on a month-long holiday. After his masters left, Cheeko went about his business, a happy extro­vert, flying about the house and getting into all the mischief he could find. He was an adorable cut-up. His brother, equally adorable, moped about the house, spending most of his time sitting on a chair looking out the window. No amount of coaxing could cheer him. While Cheeko con­stantly leapt onto Frank's knee, cuddled up and made friends, Tippy stayed aloof and lonely. In a day or two, however, he joined Cheeko, and the three became loving companions. One day, Tippy required some minor surgery. When we brought him home, he was still groggy from the anesthetic, so we placed him on a large cushion by I lie fireplace. The house was very large, with a winding staircase to the second floor, a long hall with No greater love Memory by Sylvia Bell Michael Raine many rooms and, at the end, the dogs' toy room. Cheeko was delighted to be reunited with his brother, but couldn't understand why Tippy would not respond to his playful pounces and nudges. We watched, fascinated, as he tried over and over again to rouse his brother. Bewildered, he finally sat down, pondering what to do next. Suddenly he leapt up, dashed up the stairs to their toy room, and bounded back down with a toy, which he dropped at Tippy's nose. Then he stood back and waited for Tippy to take notice. No response, so up the stairs again and back down with another toy, which he pushed onto Tippy's nose. Still no response. Again and again he brought toys, until Tippy was completely sur­rounded. Finally Tippy stirred, and Cheeko was ecstatic, leaping about and barking happily. My mother's unex­pected illness made it nec­essary for me to fly back to Victoria, and so Frank was left alone with the two little dogs. We spoke daily. My mother recov­ered, but the day before 1 was to rejoin Frank, he died suddenly of conges­tive heart failure. He was 60 years old. Good friends, unable to contact him that day, had driven over to the house. They found it locked, so they alerted the police. When the investigators entered, they were met by two hysterical little dogs. The dogs barked and snarled ferociously, trying to guard and protect their beloved friend from invaders. The police searched through the house and found Frank in his bedroom, lying in bed -— completely surrounded by toys. (Sylvia Bell grew up in Buffalo, Alta., and moved to Calgary' at age 17. Frank Sugden died on March 6, 1973.

Have you been eating donuts?" We laughed and laughed... I need bail money.Mt/ tWcnA^lvh... In my line of work, Bible reading is a constant. Each year as I read and reread the Good Book, something new stands out or catches my attention. Recently I was reading the book of Haggai - not one of the major prophets of the Old Testament, but nevertheless, one which seems to speak to this age. See what you think: "Now therefore thus says the Lord of Hosts: Consider how you have fared? You have sown much, and harvested little; you eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and you that earn wages earn wages to put them into a bag with holes.” In the relevant words of that prophet of modern times, Dr. Phil, “And how is that working for you?” (You might take this a little more seriously if the preacher wasn't somewhere on a cruise ship at this very moment, so I guess I am not immune. Hopefully I do enough good in the community to take some time away and, without guilt, briefly live the good life.) Modern society is all too consumed with 'me' and 'things' and 'pleasures'. I think what the prophet is saying is, that: • Unless you are grounded in the larger reality of the world; • Realize how very fortunate is your fate, that you have been blessed by God; • That you work not just for yourself, but to ensure that the poor around you are fed, clothed, & maintained, and • Live every day with honest regard for your fellow man, ... there is no hope that the Lord of Hosts will look kindly on your life. He will indeed consider how you have fared on your earthly journey and decide whether you have done enough. When was it that I saw you hungry and fed you? Or thirsty and gave you drink? When did I see you as a stranger and took you in? Or naked and clothed you? When did I see you sick or in prison and visited you? Verily I say unto thee, inasmuch as thou hast done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, thou hast done it unto me. The Holy Family were themselves refugees, fleeing into Egypt to escape from another evil ruler, King Herod, so I believe that He would sympathize with the plight of the millions of refugees fleeing a conflict not of their making, trying to find sanctuary and a new life. Consider how you have fared. Consider how you can, in turn, show your gratitude by supporting those whose need is great.

January has now come on gone, with bitter cold days and some almost like summerl Along with it we have been busy with ice skating, studying and preparing for exams and having awesome literacy activities! February is KINDNESS month - help us to spread love and joy at school by talking about kindness at home in different ways. Family Literacy Day was a hit on January 27th with guests from the fire department, the RCMP, the Vulcan Coalition of Early Childhood Development with Rainbow Literacy, community members and families. We had a fabulous visit with Tanya Elliott, an author from Brooks, Alberta. She is also a teacher, and spent time with the students inspiring them to use their imagination and pursue their dreams. Exam week was the last week of January. It was a great way to see where our students are doing well and where they are struggling. Remember that there are many factors that limit or contribute to success in a test: level of confidence, anxiety and the amount of sleep and food eaten, all play a role in addition to the student’s knowledge of the subject. As well, some students may be struggling with reading, expression of ideas, processing information and attention due to differences in their abilities and development. Everyone is on their own personal learning journey and it is our job (with you) to discover the various ways to realize everyone's potential. Tests are only one sample of many other aspects of student learning. In February information will be sent home to communicate with parents and guardians how the results were and areas requiring further growth for our school. We are looking forward to a few things in February! Not only is there the week off February 15-19, but also on February 22 there is a special dance performance, SAFIRE, which focuses on a message about confidence, leadership and bullying from the Canadian School Presenters. And... on February 23 we are going SKIIING to Castle Mountain! Oh Yeah! Finally in February there will be two surveys for you to complete. One will be for the school and the other is for the government, called the Accountability Pillar Survey. Completing both surveys is very important in order for us to learn your perspective about what we are doing well and what we could improve on. Please read below for more information. Thank you for your awesome support in your child’s learning! Have an epic February! -Ms. Prud’Homme Important Message: Survey info coming home soon! Attached with this News Update is information about surveys for parents and students to complete. This will be printed and sent home for school parents. There will be two surveys. One is for the school’s information, as an opportunity to get feedback from students and parents now. The other is the government survey from Alberta Education, which comes out every year, called The Accountability Pillar Survey. This survey is what we use to plan school goals by assessing our level of school achievement and areas requiring improvement. Please complete both surveys so that we can have information to help us grow further! If you would like to come in to the school during the day to complete the surveys online, you are welcome to do so. Laptops will be available in the library for the survey to be completed. Simply come in and sign in to the office and visif the library laptops. Thank you very much, in advance, for taking the time to complete the surveys! We appreciate it! First “WE READ” session went very well. The students were engaged and enthusiastic - this is a time for teachers to meet and collaborate. Let us know if you would like to help read to kids! Family Literacy Day was on January 27 and we all enjoyed the visit from guest author, Tanya Elliott along with family and community reading time and a potluck lunch! Awesome! Art classes start the second week of February on Thursdays with Vulcan Art Teacher Michael Shain, for the 3-5 and 6-9 classes. The science lab and library have a bright and fresh coat of paint. Free Family Movie Night was well attended with an audience ranging from pre-school to grandparents enjoying a good laugh at the antics of the Minions. Thank you for attending! We are now working on developing a new school sign for above our front entrance! Check out the photography from the photography options class! Students learned how to communicate creatively.

Gordon Cranch When most of us think of the first Thanksgiving, the image that comes to mind is that of American pilgrim fathers, Puritans, who had come to the New World from England in the 1600's. But the Canadian version is even older, dating back to the 1578 voyage of Martin Frobisher. The ship's chaplain celebrated Communion, the first in our corner of the world, and exhorted the crew to be thankful to God for their strange and miraculous deliverance. Samuel de Champlain from 1604 held huge feasts of thanks - remember the Order of Good Cheer? - sharing their bounty with the First Nation peoples. Thanksgiving days continued to be held irregularly after British North America was established. The Loyalists, coming to Canada after the American Revolution, brought American customs such as turkey & pumpkin pie. The first Thanksgiving Day after Confederation was observed on April 5th, 1872 to celebrate the recovery of the Prince of Wales (Edward VII) from a serious illness. From 1879 onward , Thanksgiving Day has been observed every year, the date of celebration day being changeable until 1957, when it became the second Monday in October. A *6 general thanksgiving bountiful harvest with which Canada has te be observe}) on the 2Hi dcteber. Many churches celebrate a Harvest Thanksgiving Festival, with decorations of cornucopias, pumpkins, corn, wheat sheaves and other garden produce. The glorious hymns of thanks to God are sung with gusto to signal that "all is safely gathered in ere the winters storms begin". So I wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving Day here in beautiful southern Alberta. This year, we will be in La Belle Province for Thanksgiving. As it happens, we were there for Thanksgiving Day in 1973, a mere 40 years ago!! See you in church! But maybe next month!

Godkin Returning OfficerProof of Elector Eligibility under Local Authorities Election Act (LAEA) Section 53 from Number: 01/13 Date: March 2013 Municipal Affairs Interpretation Bulletin 1. What kinds of elector identification are valid for proving eligibility to vote? • For an elected authority that does not prepare a list of electors, or where the person’s name does not appear on the list of electors, Section 53(l)(b)(i) establishes the general basic requirement for verification of the person’s identity and current residence. Under this basic requirement, the voter must produce (A) one piece of photo identification with name and address that is issued by a Canadian government (federal, provincial, local, or an agency thereof), or (B) one piece of identification authorized by the Chief Electoral Officer under the Election Act with name and address. • Types of government-issued identification allowed under (A) must show the name, address and a photo of the elector and so examples of appropriate ID include: o Operator/Driver’s license o Government photo identification card (for non-drivers) • Types of Chief Electoral Officer-approved identification allowed under (B) must show the name and address of the elector and so examples of appropriate ID include: o Bank/Credit card statement or personal cheque o Correspondence issued by a school, college or university o Government cheque or cheque stub o Income/property tax assessment notice o Insurance policy or coverage card o Letter from a public curator, public guardian or public trustee o One of the following, issued by the responsible authority of a shelter or soup kitchen: Attestation of residence, letter of stay, admission form or statement of benefits o Pension Plan statement of benefits, contributions or participation o Prescription bottle insert o Residential lease or mortgage statement o Statement of government benefits, e.g. employment insurance, old-age security, social assistance, disability support or child tax benefit o Utility bill, e.g. telephone, public utilities commission, television, hydro, gas or water o Vehicle ownership or insurance certificateT’s Saloon/ Milo Hotel HALLOWEEN PARTY Friday, November 1 8:00 p.m. Start picking out your costumes! ///i l^v Hours opening is 12:00 noon instead of 11:00 a.m.September 27, 2013 Dear Residents & Ratepayers, Election Day is October 21, 2013. The Polling Station will be open from 10 AM until 8 PM at the Milo Community Hall. Please remember to bring photo id when you come to vote; this is now required. The Advance Poll will be October 9 in the evening. There are four candidates in this election: Barry Monner, Robert Phillips, Scott Schroeder and Rafael Zea. The Village is looking at potentially organizing an all candidates forum prior to the election as one was provided in 2010 for the last civic election. If there is interest in a forum being organize, please phone the Village Office and let us know. On September 11th we had the Village General Meeting and I was pleased with the good turnout, as well as the questions that were asked of Council and Administration. For those who could not make the meeting, there are still copies of the meeting package in the Village Office providing an overview of the presentation, as well as a copy of the August financial summary and the Village’s 2013 budget. As was mentioned at the General Meeting, if you are interested in lot consolidation prior to levying 2014 taxes based on the 2013 assessment, please inquire at the Village Office as soon as possible. I must issue a correction to my explanation of the provincial grants at the General Meeting. I was of the understanding the MSI (Municipal Sustainability Initiative) funding was expiring as of 2016. Fortunately, I was mistaken, and now understand that MSI Capital will continue for the foreseeable future. The Milo and District Recreation Board will be submitting its 2014 budget to Vulcan County right away. It has been an interesting year for the Recreation Board as it explores new avenues where it can make the Milo Community, as a whole, an attractive and inviting place to live. The Village is presently in discussions with the Village of Arrowwood to share a Chief Administrative Officer. It appears that this is one way these Villages can establish a working co-operative structure whereby their administrative capacity is more viable and cost-effective over the long term. With provincial grant dollars for operations now stemming from regional co-operation projects, sharing a Chief Administrative Officer will be ideally suited for pursuing these funding opportunities. With your August utility bills we gave notice that the Village would be charging a key deposit for all boxes. It has since been brought to our attention that this type of deposit can only be taken for convenience boxes where the customer has another primary mailing address. For more information on Village business prior to the election, please inquire at the Village Office. Sincerely, Christopher Northcott, Chief Administrative Officer VILLAGE OF MILO ALBERTA P.0 Box 65, Milo, Alberta, Canada.

Don’t ever tell her someone else looks ‘hot’... especially her mom. 2. “Can you pay for this? I forgot my wallet...” Don’t be a cheapskate! Women like men who are confident and financially stable. Asking a woman to foot the bill is shameful and something a real man never does. 3. “Yes, that does make you look fat.” Even if she does look fat, you’re better off lying or pleading the 5th. 4. "You’re acting like your mother.” Talk about killing yourself twice with one stone... Not only is this a slam on your woman, but it’s also taking a shot at her mother. This is territory you don’t want to be in. 6. “Do you love/like me?” Statements like this are loaded with insecurity and are a HUGE turn off for women. 7. “Honey, what do you want to do/eat?” Don’t ever ask a woman what she wants. This can be the most frustrating factor in relationships. Asking that deadly question of “what do you want to do tonight?” or “where do you want to eat?” leads to indecision and frustration. Just take control, be the man and make the plan. 8. “Is that what you’re going to wear?!” If you’ve got issues with what she’s wearing, don’t insult her by bringing her taste or fashion sense into question. Simply tell her things that you do like. Go ahead "Honey": MAKE MY DAY... 9. “Pull my finger...” Be a man, not a pig. Don’t make lewd or rude comments, not to mention belching or flatulence around your sweetheart. Even after years of dating or marriage, this stuff can be a major turn off. 10. “Maybe you should go on a diet...” First off if you’re packing some extra cargo around yourself, you’re in no place to tell your woman that they need to cut back or lose weight. Keep making comments like these and you’re in the fast lane to the doghouse. 5. “My ex always/never/used to...” Don’t talk about the ex. Nobody cares, especially your wife or girlfriend. 11. “She’s hot!” (When you see an attractive woman walk past). If you really need an explanation for this... you’ve got bigger problems. 12. “It must be that time of the month eh?” Let’s think this one through if it really is “that time of the month”, the last thing you want to do is throw gasoline on the fire by proving your Olympic size insensitivity. 13. “I see you’re drinking skim milk. Is that ’cause you think you’re fat? 'Cause you’re not.

Funding from both the Federal & Provincial government will be the key in getting this vision to reality. Mr. Ellis also gave a report of the Waste Commission services in the County and in Milo. The Village now has copies of the Milo Library Building Project’s gas, electrical and plumbing permits. A miscommunication between the Lethbridge and Calgary Municipal Affairs Offices resulted in the warning letters for compliance which were issued to the Village Office. Council discussed the Community Support Declaration that the South Grow Regional Initiative has sent out covering the next three year period. Council felt that this organization was a strong resource and economic opportunity for the Village and passed support of the declaration by unanimous resolution. Council was advised that the County will be hiring a second Bylaw Enforcement Officer based on the committed support of the various municipalities for use of this official. Administrator Buchanan will advise as the recruitment process proceeds and a candidate is found. Townsman Myers presented Council with a report of his activities in 2006, the projects lined up for 2007 and a budget, including capital requisitions, for 2007. Council expressed their thanks for the well prepared presentation and for the great job Mr. Myers has been doing. The Public works budget and requisitions will be reviewed and integrated as possible into the 2007 Expenses Budget and Mr. Myers will be advised at the next meeting of the status of his requests. Townsman Myers will inspect the Village sidewalks and prioritize a list of locations, size and extent of repairs required so that quotes for repairs/replacement can be gathered for the ICAP grant funds. Council reviewed documents and drawings from Mr. Doug Walshaw which roughly outlined his vision for a campground at the north end of the Village. After discussion, Council concluded that this location is better suited economically and aesthetically for residential development (per the ORRSC planning drawings) and that the development proposed by Mr. Walshaw was therefore not suitable for this location. Administration will contact Mr. Walshaw with this decision and ask if he wants to consider a project of this nature on the south east end of the Village, and to provide Council with concept and drawings if he is interested. Council reviewed and passed the Resolution from the Oldman River Regional Services Commission regarding the subdivision of a portion of the former CPR property into 6 lots. Council was advised that Mr. Ron Marks has verbally notified the Office of his intention to excavate a dugout in close proximity to the Village of Milo water line which supplies raw water from Lake McGregor in NE 36-18-22-W4M. There is already another dugout in this section which infringes on the utility corridor (continued)...............as well as an oil well access road located directly over the water line and right of way which could cause problems in the future if a break should occur or maintenance is required. After discussion, Council decided the best way to protect the Village Water Line was to acknowledge Mr. Marks intention to dig the dugout and as the right of way holder, provide conditions from the Village for this excavation to safeguard against damages in this Utility Right of Way Corridor. Obstruction of Road Council discussed the obstruction of the road allowance at Range Road 220 which leads to the Allowance Village Sewage Lagoon. The road is currently blocked by bales, and requires vehicles to drive across private property to the east to get around this obstruction. Council directed Administration to advise the County in writing of this problem. Next Meeting The next Meeting of the Village of Milo was scheduled for Monday February 19, 2007 at 7:00 p.m. in the Village Office. Minutes for the January 15, 2007 meeting can be viewed in their entirety at the Village Office during regular office hours. HIGHLIGHTS OF VILLAGE OF MILO REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING February 19, 2007 Correspondence Insurance Fall Civic Election Sidewalk Repairs Audi A6 Commercial Milo Library Board Administration advised Council that letters have been sent regarding the first steps of annexation and the potential municipal interest in a regional water line/system, with no responses to date. Council reviewed the AMSC 2007 insurance premiums and coverage for the Village. Despite advising AMSC that with the exception of the Milo Fire Association and the Milo Library Board, Additional Named Insured on the Village policy would all be removed at the January 1, 2007 renewal, all their premiums and coverage still remain active. Administration will be contacting the AMSC representative to correct this situation. Council declined any requirement for the presentation of identification prior to voting at the fall civic election and declined the issuing of any special ballots or advanced voting privileges for the fall civic election. Administration advised Council that ICAP has agreed to extend the deadline for the Village’s Sidewalk Repair/Replacement grant with the condition that a contractor is secured by March 31, 2007. Quotes from Contour Construction and Prairie Cadence Construction will be reviewed at the March 2007 meeting. Council reviewed the Audi A6 Commercial and a portion of the accompanying documentary which was filmed in Milo last August. Milo is featured very favourably in both the commercial and commentary on the making of the commercial. A delegation from the Milo Library Board, comprised of President Betty Godkin, Chinook Arch Representative Linda Booth and Marilyn Nelson, joined the meeting at 7:30 p.m. Mrs. Godkin presented a quote from South West Steel to change the front of the new library building to a squared false front and read a statement asking the Council to reconsider their December 2006 condition amendment to the Library Development Permit 05-02-1. The Library Board is concerned that they do not have enough funds available (continued)to finish the new building’s basement, let alone change the front fagade of the building. The delegation stated that the fundraising and corporate donation opportunities within the community are exhausted and that the cost of meeting the Development Permit condition would jeopardize the entire building project. Council reviewed the South West Steel quote with the delegation and agreed to go In Camera at the end of the meeting to discuss the matter. After further discussion in camera, Deputy Mayor Phillips MOVED that the Village of Milo request the Milo Library Board obtain 3 independent quotes from reputable contractors regarding the cost of converting the front of the new library building to a false front and that based on these quotes, the Village may offer the Library Board a loan, over a period of at least 10 years, for an amount adequate to enable them to meet the false front condition on Development Permit 05-02-1. CARRIED. Administrator Deitz will advise the Library Board of the Council’s decision on Tuesday February 20, 2007. Public Works The purchase of a new truck mounted blade with a portion of the Municipal Sponsorship Program funding has greatly improved the snow removal operations and as the weather warms and the snow/ice thaws, the remaining slush will be cleared from the side streets. Garbage Pick Up Complaint Administration reported that a communication error between a resident, administration and the townsman regarding garbage pick up was resolved and the resident will have their garbage checked weekly. Councillor Edwards MOVED that the Village refund Ed and Georgina Ully 10.00 from their waste service billing for December 2006 and January 2007, the equivalent of the former garbage charges for a two month period, to compensate for garbage not being picked up during that time frame. CARRIED. Water Treatment Plant Administration advised that both the chlorine and the isopac chemical pumps are not working at capacity and the Operators feel that pump repair kits could address this problem. Council approve the purchase of pump repair kits to address this issue. Development Permits Councillor Edwards MOVED that Application 07-02-1 by Richard and Maria Berglof for Lot 11 Block 8 Plan 7610570 to place a 1200 square foot pre fabricated house and garage on their property be approved as presented. CARRIED. A decision on Application 07-02- 2 by Peter and Rochelle Marshall for Lot 2 Block 8 Plan 7610570 to move in a single level bungalow on their property was tabled pending further information from the applicant regarding the age and condition of the house and a revised plot plan which addresses the correct setbacks required for a proposed future detached garage at the rear of the property.

Although the fix took longer than originally anticipated, the leak in our processing tank was identified and repaired and the backwash pipes in the tank have all been replaced. The end result should be a system which runs at capacity much more efficiently and with very low turbidity levels in normal conditions. What’s in YOUR garbage? The Village would like to thank all our residents for their recent efforts to increase recycling from their regular garbage pickup. The recycling depot has been filling up very quickly! A quick reminder that food cans can easily be recycled by washing the can and removing the label. As an added bonus, charity contributions are made for each Campbells Soup label collected and submitted back to the company. Monica Monner
