crime on
downward trend
DEIRDRE MITCHELL-MACLEAN
Times Contributor
Most crime in Strathmore and surrounding
areas is down, according to statistics provid-
ed by RCMP to Strathmore town council on
Oct. 2.
Strathmore RCMP Staff Sergeant Sukh
Randhawa said that during the second quar-
ter of 2019, RCMP received 114 calls regard-
ing property crimes, demonstrating a 35
per cent decline over the five-year average,
and calls relating to criminal offences were
down 17 per cent over the year and 23 per
cent over the five-year average.
“Second quarter stats were, overall, very
positive for April, May and June 2019. Per-
sonal crimes were down by 16 per cent
from last year and overall down 37 per cent
over the five-year average,” added Randha-
wa. “For the property crime, which includes
break and enters, theft over $5,000, theft
from motor vehicles and possession of sto-
len property, (reported incidents) all trend-
ed downwards for quarter two, as compared
to last year.”
While the year-over-year trend for all prop-
erty crime is down, including break and en-
ter by 29 per cent, the year-to-date average
for break and enter in the second quarter
increased by 38 per cent. Break and enters
include businesses and property where no
one is present during the break in, such as a
detached garage or a business break-in after
hours. The third quarter shows these num-
bers going downward again.
The third quarter report, covering July, Au-
gust and September, shows a similar trend
of fewer reports of property crime. Reports
of drug crime, including possession with in-
tent to traffic, have decreased over 70 per
cent from last year and over 80 per cent on
the five-year average. The large decrease is
mostly due to the legalization of cannabis.
Personal crime did show an increase from
last year’s third quarter by five per cent, but

Municipal Building Project Updates

Kinsmen Walkability/Path Connectivity
Kinsmen Park is still open! Construction fencing has been added to the North Parking Lot in Kinsmen for the new
municipal building. Access to the North end of the park takes a few extra steps. Below the detour route is outlined
for you to access the park and the pathways. Make your way to the crosswalk at Fourth Ave and Lakeside Blvd for
access into the park. Use the map to plan your route and enjoy all the park has to offer. Thanks for your patience!
We understand with construction comes disruption and change temporarily.

Farming for Hospice receives generous support
ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
The Wheatland and Area Hospice
Society’s (WAHS) Farming for Hospice
fundraiser is one step closer to reaching
its goal and completing the inaugural
year of the innovative fundraiser.
Chinook Financial Credit Union in
Strathmore donated $1,500 to the Farm-
ing for Hospice program, amounting to
the equivalent of purchasing five acres
worth of crop inputs.
The program has sold 133 acres worth
of crop inputs out of the total 160 acres
for the wheat crop.
The credit union read about the Farm-
ing for Hospice fundraiser in an article
in the Strathmore Times. Strathmore
Branch Manager and Regional Branch
Manager Kimberley Sharkey-Thompson
said the credit union “was perusing the
Strathmore Times a couple weeks ago
and read the Farming for Hospice ar-
ticle. We felt a connection to this group
and made a decision to donate.”
She added that Chinook Financial in-
vesting in its community is an invest-
ment in themselves as the grant pro-
grams and branch donations they make
are focusing on spurring its develop-
ment and keeping local money circulat-
ing within Strathmore.
“When we heard farms are gener-
ously donating their crop revenue, it
resonated with the credit union’s values
of ‘acting local’ and it felt right to sup-
port these local farmers who are mak-
ing money make a difference in the way
they know how,” said Sharkey-Thomp-
son.
Several local area businesses have

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Giving thanks for helpers

Westmount Terry Fox Run
Westmount School held their Terry Fox Run on Sept. 27 and surpassed their
initial fundraising goal by $2,000, by raising a total of $6,200 for cancer re-
search. Due to the success of the fundraiser and the run, students were
treated to an extra 20 minutes of recess for a day as a reward for their hard
work. Grade 4 students stand in front of the Grade 3 class’ Terry Fox art
display.
To the Editor
In the fairly near future, many of the children enter-
ing your local school will become your neighbours,
colleagues, and eventually, future caregivers. Every
day you are given another opportunity to help deter-
mine what kind of future we will share. We have been
through boom and bust times before, floods, fires and
crises. We have a strong Alberta tradition of standing
up for one another in good and bad, and we need
to continue to do this for our young people by en-
suring more youth have access to a caring mentoring
relationship. Wherever you are in Alberta, there is a
young person waiting for someone just like you.
Mentoring relationships are like roots that support
young people’s success. Roots support and nourish
trees as they develop and grow, just like positive re-
lationships with adults nourish a young person’s de-
velopment by providing them a person who listens to
them, offers them guidance and encouragement, and
opens doors to new opportunities. Cultivating strong
roots improves a young person’s ability to accomplish
their goals.
Young people can struggle to create and sustain de-
velopmental relationships with healthy caring adults
in their life. This need for strong relationships is vital
for all young people, regardless of the colour of their
skin, how much money their family has, their gender
expression or sexual orientation, or the language they
speak at home. An equitable and inclusive community
makes sure that all young people have strong relation-
ships and – in particular – that those experiencing
This Thanksgiving, we give thanks to the thou-
sands of mentors across Alberta who have formed
positive relationships, provided safe spaces, created
opportunities and promoted positive developmental
outcomes. You continuously show the children of our
community that you believe in them and their goals.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to each of you for your
time, your knowledge, your compassion and your
generosity. Because of each of you, our children and
families know that you walk alongside them to ensure
that they have what they need to succeed.
According to our most recent estimate for Septem-
ber 2019, approximately 3,000 young Albertans are
still waiting to be matched with an adult mentor at
one of Alberta’s 170+ mentoring programs: they are
waiting for someone just like you.
You don’t have to be a superhero, but you certainly
might feel like one. I never cease to be amazed by
the thousands of ordinary Albertans who volunteer
in schools and community (for as little as an hour a
week) to be that caring adult in the life of a young
person. I know, that readers like you will step up and
help, the same way that someone in your life stepped
up and helped you.

your community, visit their website (albertamentors.

buildings constructed in prior years. Inspections may require measuring buildings and taking
digital exterior photographs of all assessable buildings. These inspections will commence in
October and may continue into November, and possibly December. If the resident is not home at
time of inspection, a call back card may be hung on the main entrance door of the residence or
other conspicuous location.

Rounding out
qualifications
LEELA SHARON AHEER
Chestermere-Strathmore MLA
Hello Strathmore Times readers. As I
write this another blast of winter weath-
er is on the way so you may want to
get those winter tires on sooner rather
than later.
Many professions, such as doctors,
lawyers, engineers and accountants are
what is called “self-regulating.”
This means their professional organi-
zation is responsible for certifying that
applicants are qualified and enforces
standards of practice. Immigrant pro-
fessionals must apply to these bodies
and have their qualifications examined
and accepted before they are able to
practice in Alberta. In many cases ap-
plicants must write exams, and in some
cases may be required to take courses
to round out their qualifications. This
certification must not be used to create
a “closed shop,” barring qualified pro-
fessionals from working in Alberta.
This past week we held a very suc-
cessful and very engaged round table
discussing Bill 11, the Fair Registra-
tions Practices Act. During the election
campaign we heard from a significant
amount of people concerned that pro-
fessional regulators were taking too
long to evaluate the foreign training
of professionals. Bill 11 was created to
help speed up that process by working
with these associations. The Premier
has said on many occasions that he is
prepared to take strong action if the
accreditation process doesn’t improve:
“If ... we see that there are some pro-
fessional bodies that are abusing their
authority to erect unjustifiable barriers
to registration and certification, then I
will be prepared to remind them that
we could de-designate them and create
new regulatory bodies in their place.”
He added “it is immoral and unethi-

When Cyle Clayton, Tate Yule, Philip
Raycroft and Rhett Harten played their
home opener for the Okotoks Oilers on
Oct. 4, it was legitimately a home game.
The foursome, who play for Okotoks
in the Alberta Minor Midget AAA Hock-
ey League (M15), played a home game
in the confines of the Strathmore Fam-
ily Centre in front of family and friends.
While most of the Oilers home games
will be played in Okotoks, the club
opened their home schedule with a tilt
in Strathmore, defeating Airdrie 6-2.
“It’s awesome, it’s been a while – pee-
wee second year – since I played here,
so it was really fun,” said defenceman
Clayton, who notched two goals in the
victory. “We look pretty good; we got
lots of guys off of our AAA team last
year and guys off the top AA team in
the league last year, so we’re looking
good.”
According to Raycroft, while play-
ing at home was nice, the two points
earned were more important.
“It was good – we worked hard and
we did all the little things right,” said
the speedy forward. “I just want to work
on my skills, try and grow as a hockey
player, and then hopefully our team can
just win and go far in the playoffs.”
Harten, who made 18 saves in goal
Philip Raycroft Cyle Clayton
for the Oilers, said it was a satisfying
win.
“We play played well as a group and
got the job done,” said Harten. “It’s nice
– it has been a while (two years ago)
since I played in Strathmore.
“I want to get better in every way
possible, growing as a player and a
team.”
While defenceman Yule is techni-
cally from Gleichen, he played a lot of
games at the Strathmore Family Centre.
“It was real fun and it was a big two
points for our team,” said Yule. “It’s fun
