received a round of applause in thanks for their service. Ninety-seven year old WWII Veteran, Elwood Hill, attended. Hill served in the 23 rd Field Ambulance with the 9 th Brigade and the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division from 1941-1945. According to daughter Grace, Hill landed at Normandy on D-Day and his craft got stuck on a sand bar, thus being shelled for 24 hours. His companions jokingly called him EMAH because his name is Elwood Meeko Alfred Hill. He grew up with his four siblings south of Vermilion. WWII Veteran, John Karwandy, was also in attendance. Karwandy did not make it overseas as he was either too young or the war was nearing its end. A member of the RCAF, Kar wandy trained as an aerial photographer. He remained with the Air Force until 1967, and has lived in Vermilion ever since. Chaplain Aubrey Bell said “In 1914, 700,000 of eight million people signed up for W WI, and they gave all they

possibly could to enhance the lives of Canadians.” M ayo r, C a r o l i n e M c A u l ey s a i d , “Remembrance Day is a time to pause and reflect, honour, shed a tear, share, and show gratitude to those that loved their country so much that they gave their lives. I’m extremely grateful to the men and women who left Vermilion to serve - for their sacrifice and endless gift to us of freedom and peace. I am grateful to those who have served and who serve today; to you we say, ‘Thank you.’” Cadet member Rhys Racine said that being involved with the cadets teaches you leadership and gives you the opportunity to meet a lot of new friends. Legion president, Garry Zayac said, “100 years ago today marks the end of W WI. We also remember all the other battles previous and current. Thank you to everyone for coming out and braving the weather to show your support.
WWII Veteran, Elwood Hill.

‘A Night With The Nominees’
Angela Mouly Reporter
The Vermilion-Lloydminster-Wainw r i g h t U n i te d C o n s e r vat i ve Pa r t y (UCP) Constituency Board hosted ‘A Night With The Nominees’ in Vermilion on November 6, at the Elk’s Hall. ‘A Night with the Nominees’ was also held in Lloydminster on November 1, and in Wainwright on November 5. Nomination contestants for the UCP Vermilion- Lloydminster-Wainwright Constituency include Ben Acquaye, Danny Hozack, Jenelle Saskiw, Blake Prior, Eileen Taylor, Darrel Howell,
and Garth Rowswell. These sessions allowed each nominee to d eliver an intro duc tion and par ticipate in round table question and answer periods with constituents. T h e m o d er ator, Ke ll e n S n e l g r ove, asked questions and each table was able to discuss them with a nominee; the nominees rotating tables throughout. “Today we are at the beginning of something new and we, the voters, get to take hold of the way it will go. We wanted to inform constituents. This was a way to have a timed and
moderated networking night, and to give each member face time with the candidates,” said Melissa Guenthner, director of the Constituency Association. Guests enjoyed refreshments and visiting with the nominees throughout the evening. Nomination contestant, Danny H oz ac k s a i d, “ I n ever wo u l d h ave guessed that these would be so effective. I’ve seen more engaged people in these functions than a whole host of politic al meetings. People were glad they had the opportunity to look
nominees in the eye and ask them a question; even if they had asked one on a microphone, they wouldn’t get the same feeling. I think it has been a great exercise in democracy.” “It was like speed-dating for politicians; this has been a really effective method of finding out what is important to people,” said Garth Rowswell, nomination contestant. M em b er s of t he par t y will m ake their nomination votes in Wainwright o n N ove m b e r 2 6 , i n Ve r m i l i o n o n November 27, and in Lloydminster on November 28.

PET OF THE WEEK CORVUS Corvus is a shy little guy that came into the shelter with 6 of his siblings. They’re all such perfect little kittens and they all shine like the constellations they’re named after. Corvus is still a little afraid of the outside world, but he is gradually working up the courage to take everything in. Him and his siblings are in a cat condo at the shelter with hammocks and shelves and they definitely utilize the space. He loves swatting at cat wands and batting around any toy that’s within his reach. Then, as soon as the playing had started it ends with a pile of napping kittens. If Corvus sounds like the perfect little guy for you, then come on down to the SPCA and meet him today!

Winter is upon us. When the colder weather comes our cooking often changes. We look for heartier meals, warming soups and turning on the oven for baking. I am again cooking for a bunch of my family this weekend as they are visiting home for hunting. Last week one of them got a partridge and we cooked it in some bacon drippings, and it was amazing. It tasted like turkey. This is a perfect vintage peanut butter cookie recipe from my very old Five Roses cookbook. It is
Peanut Butter Cookies
my very favourite peanut butter cookie recipe, and it works great in our altitude. These cookies are great with a glass of milk, a cup of coffee or with tea. They are tender and delicious. Interestingly, peanut butter has many health benefits. It is a very good source of antioxidants. The mono-saturated fat in peanut butter includes oleic acid, the kind found in olive oil. Peanuts are also a source of resveratrol. Reveratrol is the beneficial substance found in red wine. In the nurses’ health study, which involved 86,000 women, it was found that there was a correlation between nut consumption and a reduced risk of cardio-vascular disease. Many of the nutrients found
in peanuts have anti-cancer properties. Studies have shown peanuts to reduce the risk of colon cancer, gallstones, weight gain and Alzheimer’s. Peanut butter is an excellent source of biotin, which is good for better blood sugar balance, lowering cholesterol and healthy hair and nails. Before you send anything peanut butter, with your kids to school, be sure to check with your school to be sure that peanut butter and nuts are allowed, Some school have a no nut policy if there is a child that has a severe peanut or nut allergies. Peanut Butter Cookies 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup peanut butter 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 1/2 cups of flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt Preheat the oven to 350 degree. Cream the but ter and both sugars together. Cream the in peanut butter and then the egg and vanilla. Stir in the flour, baking powder and salt. Roll into balls larger than a walnut but smaller than a golf ball. Press the cookie ball with a fork in two directions to slightly flatten. Bake on a greased cookie sheet for 10 minutes.

Westman’s - WWII
The Vermilion Voice | November 13, 2018
He was the husband of Doris Mary Westman, and is remembered with honour at the Agira War Cememtery in Sicily. They note that he joined the Air Force in Vancouver in May of 1941, then trained at Moose Jaw, Regina, Virden, and graduated in Dauphin in December of 1941. He then went overseas in February, 1942 training further in England, and spending a few months on Bomber Command in Northern Ireland. He then went on to serve in Gibraltar, Egypt, and Malta. R o b e r t M o r r i s ( B o b) We s t m a n is commemorated on page 225 of the ‘Second World War Book of Remembrance’. According to Norman Westman, due to a past mining job, there is also a ‘Mount Westman’ named after Robert Morris (Bob) in the Yukon. Vermilion’s Dorothy Westman is the last remaining spouse of this generation of Westman boys, and met Walden after the war had ended. According to Dorothy, Walden may have enlisted before he was 18 years old. He took his training in Ontario, and never got overseas because the war had ended.
Myrtle and Robert Philip Westman had 12 children including eight boys, seven of whom enlisted in WWII. When Robert Phillips passed away in 1931, Myrtle remarried the widowed Frank Davies in 1938, relocating to the Dewberry/Vermilion area. Their children, Ernest and George Davies, also enlisted. A total of nine children in the family enlisted in WWII. Cpl. Cornelius (Slim) Westman was an Air Force ground crew personnel in Newfoundland; Cpl. James (Jim) went overseas with the army; and Jesse Rowland stayed on the farm with his mother and sisters Pearl Taylor (nee) Westman, Kay Hemmingway (nee) Westman, Thelma Hunter (nee) Westman, and Phyllis Webb (nee) Westman. Flt. Sgt. Robert Morris (Bob) was a pilot overseas, Cpl. George, Cpl. Fredrick William (Bill), Pte. John Edward (Jack) went overseas with the army, and Pte. Walden served in Canada. Step-brothers Tpr. Ernest Davies and Tpr. George Davies also served overseas. In 1942, four of the brothers (Bill, Jim, George, and Bob) were able to meet mid-war for a Christmas get together in England. The following April, tragedy struck the family. According to nephew Norman Westman, Flt. Sgt. Robert Morris (Bob) Westman’s plane was shot down over the Mediterranean Sea. “He was getting ready to be on leave and while making his last load - they never saw him again. After the war, I remember all of these young uncles coming home,” said Norman Westman. According to http://www.wikisicily.com, Robert Morris (Bob) Westman was a Warrant Officer Class II who served with Photo of Robert Morris Westman during WWII; the 458 Squadron of the Royal Canadian he was the only brother to not return home.

There were several topics of discussion during the Town Council Meeting in Vermilion on November 6. In emergent items, Councillor McCullough said, “We’re facing a $1.9 million ice plant rejuvenation and are requesting funds from the County of Vermilion River due to the level of out of town rentals at the facility (approximately 50 per cent). “I don’t think Vermilion residents should only be held accountable,” said Councillor Pulyk. “I think it is great that the county residents can use it and that our community has the privilege of two ice surfaces. I think it is important that the county contribute,” said Councillor Henderson. According to council within the past five years, the Town of Vermilion has spent $1. 8 million on maintenance of the Stadium, Arena, and Curling Rink with-

Town Council
out requests for help from the county. A motion was carried to request 25 per cent of the of the capital costs (which are $475,000) from the County of Vermilion River. In Transportation and Utilities, a motion was carried for council to accept the quote from Spilchen Consulting Services to replace the 10” discharge valve at the west reservoir for an estimated total of $17,000.00 plus GST. $13,836.00 was remaining in the 2018 Capital Budget and the additional funds of $3,200.00 will be drawn from the Water Infrastructure Capital Reserve 4-41-761-00. A vote was unanimously carried by council to grant approval for the Vermilion Ridge Riders Snowmobile Club to host a snowmobile drag race at the Vermilion Airport on January 27, 2019 subject to meeting the conditions of approval set out by administration. According to administration, the race would take place on the grounds with the runway being used as
a seating area, and special precautions would be taken for the surrounding lights and to notify nearby pilots. “I think it’s a great opportunity that we have it; anything we can do for activity at the Vermilion Airport,” said one of the council members. In Parks, Recreation and Culture, a vote was carried to apply herbicide at both cemeteries in the fall of 2019. Based on the outlook that the Town of Vermilion looks after the facilities for other youth clubs, council unanimously carried a motion for the Vermilion Minor Soccer to cover 30 per cent of the mowing and 50 per cent of the water costs for the 2019 -2021 seasons. With administration thinking that the ice plant will hold out, council carried a motion to support the Vermilion Minor Hockey Association’s (VMHA) proposal to host a Bantam B Provincial Tournament from March 14-17, 2019. As a condition, the VMHA will be required to
recover at least 50 per cent of the cost to keep the Arena ice in for an extra three weeks. “ It ’s a great o p p or tunit y for our community to be able to host something like this,” said Councillor McCullough. Mayor McAuley via video conference noted that the Physician Recruitment and Retention Commitee would be requesting $1 per capita per municipality as a payment to fund all kinds of retention including student bursaries, and inviting physicians and a guest to the Christmas Party as well as providing a gift basket or golf package. Requests would also go out to the County of Vermilion River, Minburn County and Village of Dewberry, and Village of Mannville. She also noted the Vermilion and District Housing announcement that they have obtained a new CAO, Paul Kim, who will begin on November 19. “I think he will be a valuable resource to our community,” said Mayor McAuley.
Canadian Natural – Open House
Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. (CNRL) held an Open House at the Heinsburg Community Hall, providing information about their upcoming proposed project to landowners and lake lot owners near Laurier Lake on November 7. “No application has been filed yet. We plan to apply for a primary recovery scheme approval or down-spacing application near Laurier Lake. Currently we are allowed to drill one well per quarter section, and the application would allow us to drill eight wells per quarter section (subsurface: 500 metres below the surface). What that gives us is the ability to locate the bottomhole targets more effectively to recover the heavy oil resource,” said Steve Lepp, Director of Surface Land and Stakeholder Relations for CNRL. According to Lepp, this is the start of a two to three year process, and they have provided information to all lake lot owners and landowners in the area including a
buffer zone. After they apply, CNRL will notify everyone, and they will have a 30-day public notice period for people to address any remaining concerns with the Alberta Energy Regulator. “The turnout has been excellent. We have a lot of existing activity in the area already and we enjoy maintaining those relationships. We are confident that we can work with everyone and look forward to it for sure,” said Lepp. Throughout the day, people had the opportunity to visit stations gathering information about the project including the application process, operations, safety, and environment. Lake lot owner, Heather MacMillan said, “We are absolutely against the proposal for environmental reasons. We were disappointed with the format that the open house was delivered. Though we appreciate CNRL’s professionalism, we would have preferred a question and answer form.” Dean McMullen said that he was concerned for the prospective oil spills,
safety, and clean-up. “It’s quite frustrating because it depends on who you talk to. One time we were told they would not drill under the lake, but we are not sure how it will stand up or that slants will not be used,” said McMullen. “I think that the perception of drilling horizontal or slant wells under the lake is a very big concern for people. CNRL is the fourth owner of the mineral rights in the area, and we are looking for them to find spacing between wells and no down-holes near or under the lake. We were told they would use an alternate route for traffic, but would like to see them use the existing pads. We were told eight wells per quarter, but the plan they provided shows a maximum of 16 wells per quarter. The information provided doesn’t take away the anticipation that they will damage the environment, the lake, and the real estate value. As well, there are potential dangers with children, boaters, and traffic in the area. People were very civil at the open house,

but it’s not as if they are talking to people who are against the oilfield,” said Steve West who was the Minister of Energy for four years. Overall, there seemed to be a mixed feeling about whether this application would be positive or negative.

new c ostumes and arrang ements. “Some people have made a Christmas tradition of it and have been attending for five years in a row. You don’t need to know someone in it to be able to enjoy it. I started dance when I was really little, and my parents gave me The Nutcracker book. I have loved the story ever since. I still have the same book, and it has become a tradition; now I read it to my grandchildren.” said Sundborg. With festive fun, the dancers contribute a great deal of preparation, and throughout their per formances help spread Christmas cheer to the communit y. Members of the Wainwright Dance Ac ademy as well as Shape Studio in Vermilion will contribute to the performances. “The dancers look forward to The Nutcracker production every year; they just love being a part of it. The children at the Wainwright Dance Studio are always asking right from the time we get back in September what parts they will play. It ’s ver y different from what they do the rest of the year. This is a story where they have the oppor tunity to play a role and be a part of the story,” said Sundborg.

Ann MacGrath for officiating a lovely service. Her visit was truely a pleasure, in the translation of Theresa’s life to scripture and verse. * The United Church and staff for a wonderful setting, and the United Church Choir with Organist, Dixie Farkash, for the melodic hymns. Theresa had requested the list of hymns, with one little known hymn, that probably had to be rehearsed many times, so thank you for that. * We were honoured to have long time friend, Dwayne Weisgerber, pay a colourful and personable tribute to Theresa, * The Vermilion Elks and Char Young of Lasting Impressions Catering, for the great luncheon and delicious food proceeding the service. * All the donations to Canadian Diabetes, or the charity of ones choice, in memory of Theresa. * Lakeland Funeral Services and Cremation for the beautiful service and burial, that honoured Theresa. She would have been humbled and proud of all the details. * An extra special Thanks to Candice, for the accommodating organization of the entire program and her comfort and compassion, that eased the process requirements in our time of need and grief. * To our employers, Vermilion Elementary School, Rona and Bird Construction. The time off work, understanding, caring and flexibility on their behalf, is totally appreciated. Theresa was a respected and esteemed Daughter, Sister, Aunt, Wife, Mother, Grandmother and Friend that was dearly loved and will be missed by all. The memories of her, and the lives she had touched, are the inspiration that the world can be a better place, if one chooses, and her legacy will live on forever. LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH. Our Deepest Gratitude, Thank You to All. Jim, Christine, Colin, Ryan, Jack, Tracie, and David The overwhelming attendance at the luncheon was tremendous and heart warming to say the least, but prevented us from meeting everyone of our and Theresa’s friends, so we are truly sorry if we missed you.

On Thursday, November 8, the 2645 Vermilion Army Cadet Corp came to visit the children at Vermilion Play Development. They talked to the children about Remembrance Day and why we wear poppies.

It increases the chances of a good decision being the right decision.” “A good decision is an informed decision,” she adds. “ The analysis provided by AgriProfit$ to participating producers allows them to do so.” AgriProfit$ can help producers with: Enterprise mix decisions – Which enterprises are positively contributing to the whole farm financial picture. Purc hasing and marketing dec i sions – Know the expected breakeven levels - to cover variable costs, total costs, or breakeven yields – when setting pricing targets for inputs and outputs. Investment decisions – Make the right investment in capital assets by showing what the farm can afford to pay for these assets.

St. Jerome’s held t h e ir Re m e m br a n c e Day Service on Thursday, November 8 at 11:00 a.m. We would like to thank the members of the Vermilion Royal Canadian Legion, the Vermilion Cadets and the pipers, Lisa Seewalt-Beveridge and Barry Roth for assisting us with our service. Matthew Beaudette and Taya Henderson were wonderful Masters of Ceremonies introducing each participant and creating a serious note for our ceremony. Maria Pottle led those gathered in “O Canada” followed by the “Laying of the Colours”. The focus of our program was “World War I” and life in the trenches, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the end of the Great War. Students watched a video depicting life in the trenches accompanied by the song “Trenches”, which are actual words written in letters by WWI soldiers or quoted from interviews the soldiers gave after they returned from the war. Mr. Martin’s grade five class recited “In Flanders Fields” by John McCrea, which was followed by the poem “In Flanders Now” by Edna Jaques presented by Clay Corbiere. Paul Dahoy read “The Ode” to begin the Act of Remembrance followed by the Last Post, 2 Minute Silence, Reveille, and Laying of the Wreaths by students from each grade. The ceremony ended with the grade 3/4 and 4 class singing “God Save the Queen” and the “March out of the Colours”. St. Jerome’s hosted the “Mackenzie Cup” on Tuesday, November 6. Schools from Wainwright, Provost, Settler and Vermilion attended the tournament. The Jr. Girls battled hard going to a third set with Christ King School in Settler and came away with the Silver medal. The Jr. Boys had an amazing season going undefeated and winning the final tournament as well, accumulating
6 gold medals in their season. Congratulations to Mrs. Reiniger and this group of very special boys who showed great sportsmanship, dedication and class as they humbly put their best effort in at every match they played. The St. Jerome’s Sr. Boys had a very successful home tournament playing in the semi-finals against Medstead. The JV boys were in the “C” Finals. The boys hosted “Districts” after school on Thursday, November 8 in hopes of making it to zones in Fort McMurray this weekend coming up. Ms. Frankiw had the students in grade 3/4 create their own vehicles as they learn about wheels and axles. After they designed and created their car they had to test it on a ramp to see if it actually worked. They also had the opportunity to share their creations and identify the wheel and axle. Photos submitted Middle level and High School students receive their Report Cards on Thursday, November 8. The elementary students will get their Report Cards on Friday, November 16. Parent-Teacher Interviews will take place for all grades on Tuesday, November 20 from 4-7 and Wednesday, November 21 from 5-8. Elementary students have already begun to practice for Christmas Concert, which is less then a month away. Mark your calendars for Thursday, December 13 at 7:00 pm at Lakeland College Alumni Theatre. Grade 12 students remember Grad Pictures are scheduled for Tuesday, November 20. Make sure you have made your appointment online.

The VES perogy fundraiser was a success once again this year, thanks to all the buyers, sellers, and organizers. Four thousand two hundred and twenty dollars was raised for our school to go towards field trip bussing. We thank and congratulate the following sellers: first, Luke Guenthner, second, Lance Adams, and third, Kaedence & Ella Eriksen, who will each receive a $20 Subway gift card. Mrs. Baldwin and Mr. Beecroft should also be recognized for all the behind-the-scenes work they put into making this fundraiser a great one. On October 26, the Ghouls and Goblins of VES came out to celebrate Halloween by dancing the night away. The VES Hot Lunch program hosted their 3rd Annual Family Halloween Bash. There were over 100 kids in attendance. The gym was hopping with excitement from all of the candy that was being tossed from the stage. There were so many great costumes. The ladies of the VES Hot Lunch program would like to send special thank you to past and present students who lent a hand in the set up and clean up of our event. A high five to Shannon Hughes, Camryn Campbell, Jordynn Campbell, Sydney Allen, Chloe Maxwell, Addison Young, Brydon Maxwell, Kane Fadden, Will Johnston, Zachary Gorkoff and Taylor Maxwell for being such a great help with our fundraiser. The money raised from this event will help to keep the VES snack cupboard full. The VES Spirit Team has set up a beautiful photo booth and display case at the front entrance of the school to improve school climate. Another important part of what they

do is plan and organize projects that make a difference in our community and globally. In October, the Spirit Team headed up our participation in the FCC Drive Away Hunger food drive. The Grade 6 members of the Spirit Team had the amazing opportunity to go to WE Day in Edmonton. This was an inspiring day where students heard from celebrities, students, people who faced great challenges and politicians. The students took away some powerful messages about being anything they want to be, always having a voice to express themselves, and being at peace with who they are. Two important questions they brought back were “Who is in your support squad? Who around you needs you in his/ her support squad?” WE Day was an unforgettable day that has this group fired up to make a difference. Creative Kids Club has been very busy. In early October, 60 students got to choose from five different fall crafts such as baskets, stained glass jars, leaf wind chimes, pine cone hangers, and wreaths. Many of these were displayed in the front display cabinet by the office. Later in the month, several staff members helped out so that 50 students could learn basic macrame knots to make bracelets. On November 6, VES had their first dress up day, which was toques and sunglasses. Many individuals wore their garb. VES also had an assembly that day. It opened with an acknowledgement of Treaty 6 territory and the singing of the VES song. Mrs. Doherty informed us that the virtue for November is perseverance. The virtue draw was made and Alana Everest was the winner of a soccer ball. Mrs. Tomkins was astounded that VES students have read 2506 AR points just in the month of October. We

livestock until 2019 to help replenish the herd. The cost of replacing the animals in 2019 will offset the deferred income, thereby reducing the tax burden associated with the original sale. Eligibility for the tax deferral is limited to those producers located inside the prescribed areas. Producers in those regions can request the ta x deferral when filing their 2018 income tax returns. Quotes “This past year, extreme weather conditions have caused feed shortfalls for Canada’s livestock producers in several provinces. The Livestock Tax Deferral Provision will help give producers the resources needed to help rebuild
their herds and get back to business.”- Lawrence MacAulay, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Quick Facts Low moisture levels resulted in significant forage shortages for livestock producers in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec and New Brunswick in 2018. One option for producers is to reduce their breeding herd in order to manage feed supplies. In addition to the livestock tax deferral provision, producers have access to assistance through existing Canadian Agricultural Partnership Business Risk Management programs, which include AgriInsurance, AgriStability and AgriInvest.
