chief in Siksika’s election on Nov. 27. Crow-
foot, who has a Master’s degree in business
administration and is a chartered professional
accountant, brings a solid background of cor-
porate and personal experience to the role.
Crowfoot spent a number of years away from
Siksika gaining his education and work expe-
rience and returned when his mother fell ill.
“When I came back to Siksika, I didn’t have
a plan,” Crowfoot said during the campaign,
“but I already had those building blocks. I had
the education, I had the work experience; and
if you have those building blocks, if you have
that firm foundation, you can go anywhere in
the world.
“That’s what I want our youth to know,” he
added. “If you’ve got that firm foundation of
education and work experience, you can do
anything.”
He thanked his mother for instilling in him
that education was necessary.
“She told me education was the great equal-
izer,” he told a crowd during a campaign
speech. “She also told me to ‘go out into the
world with a computer in one hand, that’s your
education, and a drum in the other, that’s your
tradition, your culture (and) your knowledge.
You’ve got to have both – it’s not one or the
other.’”
Kelsey Solway, communications consultant
for Siksika Nation, said that it is too early to
say whether priorities will change as council is
convening for the first time this week.
Focus areas that the previous leadership had
prioritized were public safety, opioid response
plan, the creation of a community trust and
land use planning.
Councillors Rueben (Buck) Breaker, Carlin
Black Rabbit and Ike Solway were re-elected
to council for another three-year term.

The Canadian Pacific Railway U.S.
Holiday Train will be making the final
stop of its journey at Gleichen/Siksika
on Dec. 18 at around 9:40 p.m. and the
community organizers are hoping for a
repeat of the reception they gave the
train last year.
“Last year was wildly successful,” said
Margaret Newton, secretary of the Glei-
chen and District Community Associa-
tion. “The number of people, events and
food bank donations at the Gleichen/
Siksika stop caught the attention of the
Holiday Train organizers so much that
they wanted to stop again this year.
Last year, despite -25 C temperatures,
close to 3,000 people turned out to
greet the train. CPR gave a $4,000 dona-
tion to the Wheatland County and Siksi-
ka Food Banks, and attendees donated
$875 and 1,350 lbs. of food which was
split between the two food banks.
This year the Holiday Train is featur-
ing musical artists Meghan Patrick, Tan-
ika Charles and Kelly Prescott.

Some toe-tapping entertainment to
get some of the seniors in attendance
dancing will be provided by a Celtic
band, Cabot’s Crossing. New this year
will be a Celtic dance troupe, MJP
Academy of Irish Dance, to perform
some traditional dances for the attend-
ees.
“Any senior can attend … it’s really
meant for the seniors to come out and
have a good time,” said Poirier.
The event is free and any senior can
show up at the doors and be escorted
into the party.
For those who need a ride to the
Christmas party, the Strathmore Handi-
bus will be providing rides, but seniors
must register for the service by calling
Poirier at 403-901-3472 by Dec. 13 to
get added to the pick-up and drop-off
list.
“We need to support our seniors as a
community and so I see this as a way of
giving back to all of the work and dedi-
cation and life that the seniors breathe
into our community,” said Poirier. “This
is just one little way of us giving back
for all of the things they’ve done for us
over the years.”
pede First Nations Princess will be
making an appearance.
The communities are working to-
gether again to provide an evening of
activities and entertainment beginning
at 5 p.m.
“We are hoping to bring in more na-
tive dancers this year – but inside this
time,” said Sandra Sparvier, health pro-
motions liaison for Siksika Health Ser-
vices.
“There will also be two DJs perform-
ing – DJ Blkft and DJ Painted Horse –
for people to listen to or to dance and
keep warm,” said Sparvier.
Food will also be available, including
hotdogs for $1 or donation of a non-
perishable food item.
Vendors will have booths set up in
the Gleichen Hall for those looking to
do some shopping.
All the food and funds raised from
the evening, including the donation
from CP Rail, will be split between the
Wheatland County Food Bank and the
Siksika Food Resource Centre.
“Some people asked why we don’t
take the money we put into this event
and just give it directly to the food
banks,” said Sparvier. “But that would
help only a few people.
“I tell them that with everyone put-
ting their few dollars together we can
have a big event and touch the lives of
hundreds of families in both communi-
ties.”
CP has two holiday trains. The Cana-
dian one left Montreal on Nov. 26 and
follows CP’s tracks to Vancouver, arriv-
ing on Dec. 17. The U.S. train left Mon-
treal on Nov. 26, making stops in south-
ern Ontario and New York state, before
picking up again in Chicago, Ill. and
making its way through several states
before crossing into Saskatchewan,
with the final show of the trip being in
Gleichen on Dec. 18.

Strathmore High School held its
semi-annual Breakfast of Champions
on Nov. 29, and 44 students were hon-
oured by their teachers and the whole
school.
Breakfast of Champions is held twice

“who are our ‘quiet contributors’ and
therefore may not be recognized oth-
erwise,” noted Kevin Mertz, associate
principal at Strathmore High School
(SHS).

Local school boards face funding challenges
DEIRDRE MITCHELL-MACLEAN
Times Contributor
After the provincial budget was re-
leased in October, the majority of
school boards around the province
discovered they would receive less
funding.
And Strathmore area schools are not
immune.
Both Christ the Redeemer School Di-
vision and Golden Hills School Divi-
sion are projecting $1.8 million dollar
deficits for the 2019-20 year across all
schools in the division.
Golden Hills School Division was
presented with an update at their
board meeting on Nov. 27 detailing the

might be someone that makes a posi-

ways, or someone who has made a
real effort to change their attitude or
work ethic, and the effort has paid off,”
he added. “It might be a student who
quietly goes about their studies and
achieves their goals without getting
any major recognition. A champion is
someone that we are proud to say is a
true Spartan.”
Each of the school’s 44 teachers
choose a champion and they all come

“Transportation is still running a
deficit,” the report stated. Over the
2018-19 school year the deficit was
$296,953 and the projected 2019-20
deficit is down slightly at $292,024.
Building insurance is increasing by
almost $1 million for Golden Hills fa-
cilities over the next year as well.
The board will look to cover the
losses from reserve funding for this
year.
Christ the Redeemer Superintendent
Dr. Scott Morrison noted at a ward
meeting on Nov. 6 that school fee and
class size reduction grants, among oth-
ers, had been eliminated, resulting in
decreased funds.

each teacher introduces and shares the
student’s success story.
This is the 25th year for SHS’s Break-
fast of Champions event. Twenty-five
years ago, now-retired Karen Harris
had visited another school that ran the
program.
“She came back to SHS and explained
it to staff who jumped on board with
it,” said Mertz. “We are very grateful
for Neil Kennedy, owner of our local
Sobeys, for supporting this program
over the years by donating the break-
fast and attending many of the events
as well. This is a great community part-
nership that we are thankful for.”
“The (provincial) budget reduced
Christ the Redeemer Catholic’s rev-
enues and we moved from a manage-
able operating deficit of $400,000 to a
more troubling deficit of $1.3 million.
“To exacerbate matters, (Christ the
Redeemer’s facility) insurer unexpect-
edly increased our premiums by ap-
proximately $500,000, so we now find
ourselves in a deficit position of ap-
proximately $1.8 million,” according to
the ward meeting minutes.
While neither Golden Hills nor Christ
the Redeemer are planning to increase
school fees this year, both boards will
be working on plans to deal with fund-
ing shortfalls for 2020-21 over the up-
coming months.

the first four speak to us

brought all ten together in
two concise statements
when He said according to
Mark’s gospel, “Love the

Charges laid in break Attempted armed robbery

and enter
JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
A Strathmore man was arrested
and charged following a break and
enter to a house in town.
Bryce Gibson, 51, of Strathmore
has been charged with break and
enter to a dwelling house with
intent to commit an indictable of-
fence, and a second count of pos-
session of property obtained by
crime.
In the early evening hours of
Nov. 30, 2019, Strathmore RCMP re-
sponded to a complaint of a break
and enter to a house in the Town of
Strathmore. The investigation led to
the arrest of a male, who had bro-
ken and entered the home while
the occupants were out. The ac-
cused was arrested moments later
on foot after fleeing the residence.
The accused was found to be in
possession of a key to the property
when arrested.
Gibson is scheduled for a first ap-
pearance in Strathmore Provincial
Court on Dec. 6, 2019.

JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
Strathmore RCMP have charged two
youths after a thwarted armed robbery at-
tempt in Strathmore
On Nov. 22, 2019 Strathmore RCMP re-
ceived a complaint of a robbery attempt
occurring at the Strathmore Convenience
Store on 3rd Avenue. A disguised male en-
tered the store brandishing a knife and de-
manded money. The male became spooked
and fled the location without obtaining any
money.
The circulation of some video footage led
to the identification of two individuals re-
sponsible for this offence as well as a theft
from the local Walmart occurring a short
time earlier.
Follow-up investigations led to charges
being laid.
Two young people who cannot be iden-
tified under the Provisions of the Youth
Criminal Justice Act have been charged
with one count each of attempted robbery
and another count each of theft of property
not exceeding $5,000. They are scheduled
to appear in court in Strathmore later this
month.

Little Miss Britches

2019 citizen satisfaction survey results
DEIRDRE MITCHELL-MACLEAN
Times Contributor
The Town of Strathmore recently
released the compiled results from its
2019 citizen satisfaction survey. The
survey was sent to 2,000 targeted de-
mographic households within the mu-
nicipality and had a 25 per cent re-
sponse rate.
The annual survey measured re-
sponses on quality of life, programs
and services, taxation and funding,
communications and demographics.
The feedback from residents will help
Strathmore’s mayor and council navi-
gate their way through a difficult bud-
get.
Survey results showed that 74 per
cent of respondents feel they receive
good or very good value for their
tax dollars, but the responses were
split over whether to increase taxes
to maintain or expand services or to
scale back through service cuts.
Rodeo Queen
Strathmore native Bristie Kugler was recently
crowned the 2020 High River Little Miss Britches
Rodeo Queen. The eight-year-old Grade 3 student
was born and raised in a rodeo family and has been
competing since she was two years old, in barrel
racing, pole bending, goat tying and, most recently,
breakaway roping. Kugler was chosen as Little Miss
Britches by a committee that chose her for her riding
ability and public interaction. She will represent the

Spartans football wrap up season
ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
The Strathmore High School Spartans football
team wrapped up their season with a year-end
banquet at the Strathmore High School on Nov.
22.
Their season came to an early end with four
season wins and five losses. The team pulled to-
gether to play a good 9-2 game, winning against
Rundle College in the consolation final for the Big
Rock Football Conference.
“We were a young team this year that was com-
petitive in every game we played in,” said head
coach Travis Gorski. “With all the ups and downs
of the season, our boys showed tremendous grit
and heart as they progressed through the season
and grew as a team.”
Graduating players this year include John Gib-
bons, Nick Heaton, Teerawat Satirawong, Brandon
Middlemiss, Issac Musselman, Gabe Matatall, Mali-
kia Henry, Ricardo Hernandez and Max Sims.
“The future looks bright as we return 35 out of
44 players and add some talented Grade 9s to the
roster,” said Gorski.
Season awards were handed out at the banquet
and included Nick Heaton being named most
valuable player and Cooper Nelson as D player of
the game. Both Jack Warrack and Marcus Molina
were awarded rookies of the year; most improved
was Noah Agboro; and the Spartan pride awards
were given out to Max Sims and Malakai Henry.
The team will be getting back into shape to pre-
pare for next year with offseason workouts set to
begin in December by utilizing some field time
at the Strathmore Motor Products Sports Centre
every Wednesday afternoon.
Team captains for the upcoming season were
also named, with the six captains being held to a
high standard to provide reliable leadership and
guidance for the entire team. New team captains
are Cooper Nelson, Tony Suteenoppaken, Kaden
Warren, Jack Warrack, Bennett Salmon and Mar-
cus Molina.
“The expectations of our team next year will be
to compete in the ASAA provincial championships
and push to win the Big Rock Football Confer-
ence,” said Gorski.

(1:30 p.m.) at the Strathmore Family Centre.
BRAVES WIN
The Wheatland Braves improved to 12-2-0 on the season
after a 3-0 shutout over the Foothills Bisons on Dec. 1 at
the Strathmore Family Centre.
The local double-A peewee team will now take the week-
end off from league action as they prepare to travel to
Medicine Hat on Dec. 13.
The Braves will return home on Dec. 14 (4:45 p.m.)
when they host the Chestermere Lakers at the Strathmore
Family Centre.
CHIEFS RESPOND
After suffering their worst defeat of the season – a 7-1
drubbing at the hands of the NWCAA Bruins on Nov. 27 –
the Wheatland Chiefs got back to the win column with a
pair of solid victories.
The local double-A midget team took a 4-0 road win over
the Taber Golden Suns on Nov. 30, before defeating the
Medicine Hat Hounds 3-2 the following day at the Strath-
more Family Centre.
The Chiefs, who improved to 11-2-2 on the season, will
play their lone weekend game on Dec. 7 (4:45 p.m.) at the
