Town waives 2020
business license fees
ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
The Town of Strathmore has waived the 2020 busi-
ness license fees and will be issuing both in-town and
out-of-town business licenses at no charge.
This is the first year the town has ever waived the
cost of the business license fees. Previously, the fee
was $100 for an in-town business license and $200 for
an out-of-town business license.
“This ultimately starts with council’s strategic prior-
ities, which includes promoting economic and busi-
ness grown in Strathmore,” said Ty Tomasta, commu-
nications ambassador with the town. “This initiative
is one way that council is delivering on this priority.”
Last year, about 600 in-town and 300 out-of-town
business licenses were issued, supplying the town
with a total business license revenue of $101,835.
Several challenges were present while creating the
2020 budget, and both administration and council
worked to find creative policies to potentially draw in
new businesses to Strathmore and to support current
local businesses. The waiving of the business license
fee for 2020 was one of the policies set forth to en-
courage business growth.
The Town of Strathmore has planned several initia-
tives for 2020 to help grow the business community,
and to encourage economic growth and business lon-
gevity.
“There are multiple ways planned to help support
local businesses. We have tactics that are being put
into place like the shop local campaign #EvenMore-
Strathmore,” said Tomasta. He added that the town has
also launched a new economic development website
that includes tools for businesses or for people who
are considering business opportunities in Strathmore.
All Strathmore businesses are required to have a
current business license. In the past, business licenses
and invoices have been mailed out at the same time
for existing businesses to pay and display. This year,
no business licenses and invoices will be automatical-
ly mailed out to any existing business.
To obtain a current 2020 business license, business
owners must either visit the town office or contact
development services via phone or by emailing devel-
opment@strathmore.ca to request their license.
For new businesses, business license applications
are available on the Town of Strathmore website and Creative crafting!
can be filled out and either dropped off at the office Brielle Permann, 5, eagerly showed off the card she was working on creating at the

Carseland Co-op cardlock now patrolled by Unifor members

DEIRDRE MITCHELL-MACLEAN
Times Contributor
It’s a fight that originated in Regina, Sask. Unifor
Local 594 was locked out of the Co-op Refinery Com-
plex on Dec. 5 after it had been unable to come to an
agreement after 22 bargaining sessions that began in
February of last year.
In January, Unifor central members and organiz-
ers including Jerry Dias, Unifor’s president, took the
place of Local 594 for the day to set up a blockade.
Dias and 13 other Unifor picketers were arrested.
Now, the fight has moved to Carseland where Uni-
for members are showing support for their Local 594
colleagues in Regina.
“It was actually the RCMP officers who explained
what was going on,” said Jennifer Wiebe, a local busi-
ness owner and resident of Carseland.
Wiebe says she heard about the blockade from cli-
ents who had tried to get gas on Jan. 23 and went
out to the cardlock, located west of Carseland near
Highway 24.
The union members “denied me access three times
that week,” she said. “It wasn’t until United We Roll
for Canada showed up on Sunday that they let us all
in to fuel up.”
United We Roll for Canada is the same group that
took a convoy to Ottawa last February in support of
Alberta’s oil and gas industry.
Strathmore Staff Sergeant Dale Morgan said RCMP
are on site at Carseland and are currently treating the
blockade as a labour dispute.
“The RCMP monitors political activities as they un-
fold and maintains communication with on-site orga-
nizers,” Morgan said.
He noted that while the protest has been peaceful
to date, “proper exercise of police discretion should
not be confused with lack of enforcement.”
As a labour dispute, the RCMP are ensuring the pro-
tection of the right to peaceful protest.
Unifor central did not respond to requests for com-
ment. A Unifor organizer who has been in Carseland
did not respond to requests for comment.
“Federated Co-op Limited (FCL) has been in contact
with Carseland residents,” Wiebe said. “They’ve been
apologizing for the delays and trying to keep us up
to date.”
Carseland is one of the southern Alberta hubs for
Co-op fuel. Trucks fill up in Carseland and then take
gas to other areas in southern Alberta and as far north
as Rocky Mountain House.

Canada Packers/Shurgain Feed Mills.
He met his spouse-to-be, Donna Mae
Heinzlmeir (born at Baintree), at Bert
and Marie Gerritsen’s wedding, where
John was best man and Donna was the
bridesmaid. Donna attended Grades
1-12 in Rockyford. After graduating, she
worked the switchboard for a telephone
company in Rockyford, then worked for
Calgary Power until the children started
arriving.
John and Donna were married in
Calgary on June 20, 1964 and they had
four children – three daughters and a
son – and now have nine grandchildren
and three great-grandchildren. Once
the children were of age, Donna re-
turned to work at Carseland Arena with
Yvonne Hellevang, then assisted John
at the Indus Estate, and also at Wood-
wards, Mark’s Work Wearhouse, and the
Hoof and Nail.
In 1970, John was hired by Western
Irrigation District (WID) to be a ditch
rider in the Carseland area. The job re-
quired ditch riders to literally ride the
ditch banks, ensuring water was deliv-
ered to landowners when and where
needed. In the early 1970s, WID em-
ployees were provided with a three-
bedroom house, a barn, vegetable plot
and 80 acres of land, on which John
and Donna raised milk and grain cows
(selling their cream to Foothills Cream-
ery). John commented that when they
moved into this house (built in 1907) it
had a coal stove for heating and cook-
ing, which was eventually replaced by
propane, then natural gas.
In 1980, following John’s retirement
from WID, the family moved to Indus,
where John managed the Dhe Swanen-
burgh Estate for the Dooyes Family. Af-
ter this land was sold to the neighbour-
ing German landowners Pferdmenges
Farms, John continued to maintain the
estate, as well as working the grain
farm, for the new owners.
John and Donna retired at the age of
70 (in 2006) and moved to Chestermere.
John recalled that while working for
WID in the Chestermere area, he had
to remove garbage from cabins located
around the lake, which have now been
replaced by elaborate lakefront homes.
They were both actively involved in
each and every community where they
lived, and loved to travel to different
places around the world, as well as
spending the summer months camping.
Regretfully, Donna passed on Dec. 26,
2017.

MARIO PRUSINA
Times Editor
The Wheatland Braves extended their
winning streak to four games after a pair
of road wins in Airdrie and Lacombe Feb.
1-2.
The local double-A peewee team de-
feated the Airdrie Lightning 7-4 to open
the weekend, before taking out the Cen-
tral Alberta Selects 6-4 the following day.
After a 1-2-2 stretch, including a 10-5
loss to the top-ranked Bow Valley Tim-
berwolves, the Braves reeled off four
wins in a row to improve to 21-5-2 on
the season.
Led by the league’s leading scorer, Kyle
McDonough, who has 35 goals and 34 as-
sists for 69 point in 27 games, the Braves
also receive high power offence from the
duo of Tate Hanson and Trip Jensen.
The next game for the Braves is Feb. 22
(4:45 p.m.) when they host the Medicine
Hat Orange.
WINNING WARRIORS
The Wheatland Warriors improved to
18-6-4 on the season after an 8-5 road
win over the Foothills Bisons on Feb. 1.
Luc Trevors, Garrin Gosling and Kolten
Kuryk combined for 10 points in the win,
which followed a 6-4 road win the previ-
ous day in Lethbridge.
The local double-A bantam team has
reeled off three straight wins and leads
the South Conference.
The Warriors will now play a home-
and-home series with the Bow Valley
Timberwolves on Feb. 8 in Cochrane,
before returning home to the Strathmore
Family Centre Feb. 9 (1:30 p.m.) for the
return match.
CHIEFS SPLIT
After suffering a 4-1 road loss to the
Medicine Hat Hounds on Jan. 31, the
Wheatland Chiefs got back to their win-
ning ways with a 7-1 hammering of the
Central Alberta Selects on Feb. 2.
Nolan Bailey scored a goal and added
a pair of assists to lead the way for the
local double-A midget team. Nathon Fe-
ick, Adam Kirkpatrick, Austin Kuryk and
Zach Stangness each recorded two points
in the win.
The Chiefs, who improved to 15-8-3 on
the season, will now host the West Cen-
tral Tigers on Feb. 9 (4:15 p.m.) at the
Strathmore Family Centre.
