County adopts
“Alberta First”
resolution
DEIRDRE MITCHELL-MACLEAN
Times Contributor
Wheatland County’s Division One Coun-

Parish fundraiser cillor Jason Wilson proposed county adopt a
resolution on Alberta’s place in Canada dur-
Page 12 ing Tuesday’s council meeting.
“I’m not a separatist,” Wilson said as he in-
troduced the resolution. “But if the govern-
ment of Canada won’t meet us halfway, then
what?”
The resolution seeks action from both the
federal and provincial government. To the
federal government: acknowledgement of Al-
berta’s financial contribution to the federal
government. Albertans have the highest aver-
age incomes in the country; while they are
Badgers playoffs not taxed more than other regions, they do
pay more in federal taxes than regions where
wages are lower.
Secondly, the resolution wants acknowl-
edgement that Albertans pay more into the

The resolution also demands the provincial
government “use Section 88 of the Supreme
Court’s decision in the Quebec Secession Ref-
erence to remove equalization from the Cana-
dian Constitution.”
Finally, if the federal government does not

WORLD WAR I ENDED WITH THE TREATY OF VERSAILLES

ON JUNE 28TH, 1919
The first global conflict had claimed from 9 million to 13 million lives and caused
unprecendented damage. Germany had formally surrendered on November 11, 1918,
and all nations had agreed to stop fighting while the terms of peace were negotiated.
On June 28th, 1919, Germany and the Allied Nations (including Britain, France, Italy and
Russia) signed the Treaty of Versailles, thereby ending the war.
