COVID-19 Update
Siksika Nation has two new symbols of
in Strathmore & hope for the community and beyond: a
Wheatland County pair of white bison.
(as of September 15, 2020) The two white bison (or buffalo) are
now living on Siksika Nation, following

drumming and singing, and a shared meal.
White bison are rare: according to the
U.S. National Bison association, they oc-
cur in approximately one out of every 10
million births. Instead of having a brown
coat like most bison, they have fur that is
described as white or blonde.
The bison, raised by rancher Allan
Deutsch, were brought to Siksika by Car-
lon and Lisa Big Snake, who maintain The
Siksika Barn and operate Snake Stitch, a
company that sells embroidered apparel
and other items.
The couple has worked hard to be able
to bring the bison to Siksika.
“Being in leadership, one thing that I al-
ways promoted was to be more independ-
ent, become self-sufficient and to work
hard,” said Carlon, a former Siksika coun-

Marigold-WID headquarters
construction underway
SEAN FEAGAN
Local Journalism Initiative Reporter
Construction on the new shared headquarters
for Marigold Library System and Western Irriga-
tion District (WID) is now underway.
An official groundbreaking ceremony for the
building was held Sept. 11. The event was at-
tended by members of both organizations and lo-
cal representatives, including Town of Strathmore
Deputy Mayor Denise Peterson, Wheatland Coun-
ty Reeve Amber Link, Siksika Councillor Rueben
“Buck” Breaker, Airdrie East MLA Angela Pitt and
Bow River MP Martin Shields.
The impetus for Marigold’s involvement in the
project was the organization’s need for a larger
building to serve its 44 member municipalities,
explained Lynda Lyster, Marigold’s board chair.
But the chances for this “were not looking good”
until Marigold received a $3 million grant from
the provincial government in 2017, she said.
Then, after upgrading the current Marigold
headquarters was deemed unfeasible, the organi-
zation started considering a new build. Looking
for available real estate in Strathmore, the organi-
zation approached WID about parcels it owns in
town. Talks were stalling until the suggestion was
made that Marigold share with WID, which was
also in need of a new headquarters, said Lyster.
“So, two community-minded organizations
forged ahead with a joint use facility to share and
also own our own building,” she said.
The joint-use facility is an uncommon arrange-
ment that will benefit both organizations, said
Dan Shute, WID board chair.
“The potential economy of scale, the synergies,
the ability to share fundamentals like parking lots,
outdoor amenities space (and) a large boardroom
(are) instances where the WID has not previously
had that opportunity,” noted Shute.
While the two organizations serve different
functions, there are similarities between them,
said Pitt.
“Both the WID and Marigold have a long history
of investing in small and rural Alberta communi-
ties and their organizations provide critical public
service to so many,” she said.
Peterson echoed this sentiment. “What a re-
markable undertaking for two seemingly dispa-
rate organizations. I say seemingly, because I have
come to understand that these organizations have
much in common, as both are hugely critical to
our future well-being,” she said.
The 34,462 square foot structure, located to the
northwest of the intersection between Pine Rd.
and Orchard Park Rd., is expected to be com-
pleted by the summer of 2021. The building was
designed by BRZ Partnership Architecture, led by
architect Hank Brzezinski, and will be constructed
by Lear Construction Management Ltd.

Strathmore may consider mask bylaw

SEAN FEAGAN
Local Journalism Initiative Reporter
The Town of Strathmore is looking for feedback
regarding a mandatory mask bylaw.
The town has provided residents with an online
poll, available online (https://forms.strathmore.
ca/Face-Mask-Poll) to share their opinion on the
matter.
Town administration stated a bylaw on manda-
tory face mask use in Strathmore has been pre-
pared and that it would be brought to council “if a
need arises.” It was not clear at the time of writing
whether the bylaw was to be brought to council
Across Alberta, mandatory mask bylaws ap-
plicable to all indoor public spaces are active in
Banff, Beaumont, Calgary, Canmore, Edmonton,
Lethbridge, Jasper and St. Albert. The mask bylaw
of Banff and Jasper applies to outdoor sections of
the town as well. For some municipalities, such
as Strathcona County, the mask bylaw applies to
transit or municipal buildings only.
Other municipalities, including Airdrie and Co-
chrane, have passed bylaws that would become
active if local case numbers reach a certain thresh-
old. In Chestermere, masks are required for pa-
trons and employees in businesses where two me-
tres of separation cannot be maintained.

Pets can have a positive influence on our health.
One study showed that pet-owners saw their doc-
tors 16% less often than non-pet-owners. They
also walked more steps per day because the dog
needs walking. Pets also help keep stress levels
down as well. During the isolation required of
the Covid pandemic, the need for dogs and cats
greatly increased.
Using earphones or ear buds to privately listen
to music is a common occurrence. But it can be
dangerous to your hearing if the volume is too
high. If people near by can hear it, then it’s too
loud. Save your hearing. Listen responsibly.
Those who play musical instruments often have
skin problems due to the repetitive friction where
the instrument touches the skin. Ever heard of
fiddler’s neck, guitar nipple, cellist’s chest, harp-
ist’s fingers, flutist’s chin or brass lips? A form
of contact dermatitis can develop with the instru-
ment’s continuous contact with the skin.
There are still people who use cotton-tipped ap-
plicator sticks to clean ear wax from their ears.
This not a recommended use of this product. Our
ears are self-cleaning. Using these sticks con po-
tentially harm the eardrum and can push the wax
even further into the ear and reduce hearing. Talk
to your pharmacist for OTC solutions that can
help and see your doctor if you feel wax build-up
is becoming serious and have it removed profes-
sionally and safely.

Preventing suicide by confronting
stigma and seeing signs
SEAN FEAGAN
Local Journalism Initiative Reporter
Suicide is a complex issue – but it can
be prevented.
Sept. 10 was World Suicide Preven-
tion Day, and in response, local authori-
ties acted to promote awareness of this
devastating and tragic issue.
Siksika Chief and Council passed a
resolution to establish the date as Sik-
sika Suicide Prevention Day. The proc-
lamation recognizes that Indigenous
communities have some of the high-
est suicide rates in the world, which
impacts families, friends and frontline
workers. It affirms that the chief and
council support a community-wide call-
to-action for prevention and awareness
through community-based approaches.
The proclamation will be effec-
tive when nation members recognize
the impacts of social determinants on
health and well-being, and the inter-
generational impacts of colonization
on way of life, it states. Members must
also recognize the signs and symptoms
of suicide, act on prevention and inter-
vention, and help de-stigmatize mental
health issues, according to the procla-
mation.
On Sept. 10, the Town of Strathmore
held a candlelight vigil at Kinsmen Park
in the evening, which was attended by
Deputy Mayor Denise Peterson and Sik-
sika Councillor Rueben “Buck” Breaker.
Alberta has one of the highest sui-
cide rates among Canadian provinces:
in 2019 in Alberta, there were 13.4 sui-

cides per 100,000 people, according to
data from the Centre for Suicide Pre-
vention.
While it is an issue affecting Albertans
of all ages, youth are some of the most
susceptible to suicide: it is the leading
cause of death for people aged 15 to
24; and among high school students,
approximately one in seven consider at-
tempting suicide and one in 13 attempt
suicide one or more times, according to
Alberta Health Services (AHS).
One important step to confronting
suicide is its de-stigmatization. Using
the term “committed” should be avoid-
ed, as this word implies a crime. Instead
“died by suicide” should be used.
Talking to someone about suicide or
asking them if they are thinking about
suicide will not put the idea in their
head, according to the AHS Youth Sui-
cide Prevention Resource Guide. In-
stead, talking about it is said to be a
step towards prevention.
Stereotypes should also be avoided.
Suicide should not be described as in-
evitable. Instead, it should be empha-
sized that suicide is preventable, and
help is available. If someone is suicidal
once, it does not mean they will always
be suicidal. And if someone is having
thoughts of suicide, it does not mean
they are determined to die.
Any mention of suicide should be
taken seriously. If someone is threaten-
ing suicide, get them help right away.
A health professional should be in-
volved to determine if the person has
the means to do harm to themselves,
has a time and place to attempt suicide,
and thinks there are no other options
for them.
According to AHS, if a threat seems
real, call 911, a suicide hotline or the
police. Then, stay with the person un-
til the crisis has passed and encourage
them to seek professional help. Do not
argue or challenge the person, but in-
stead tell them that you want them to
live and talk to them as openly as pos-
sible.
While it can be hard to know if a per-
son is thinking about suicide, there are
risk factors and possible signs.
Suicide is a complex issue but is as-
sociated with a range of risk factors.
These include mental illness, substance
use, stressful life events, family vio-
lence, having attempted suicide before
or having a family member who has
killed themselves or who attempted
suicide. However, each situation is dif-
ferent and can involve a range of fac-
tors.
Events that can increase suicide risk
include changes in life (e.g. death of a
partner or friend, retirement, divorce,
money issues), diagnosis of a serious
physical illness or new physical disabil-
ity, severe and long-lasting pain, loss of
independence or social isolation.
There are also numerous possible
warning sides, including planning to or
saying they want to hurt or kill them-
selves; talk, write read or draw about
death; saying they have no hope, feel
trapped or there is no point in “go-
ing on”; talking about being a burden;
having a new interest in guns or other
weapons; stockpiling medicines; in-
creased substance use; decreasing so-
cial contact; stopping self-care; and giv-
ing possessions away.
The warning signs for children and
adolescents may be different, which
can include running away or doing
risky or dangerous things.
There are many supports available:
people with thoughts of suicide or con-
cerned caretakers or loved ones should
call the Health Link at 811 or the Men-
tal Health Help Line at 1-877-303-2642;
the federal First Nations and Inuit Hope
for Wellness Help Line is available at
1-855-242-3310. For other supports, in-
cluding for teens, visit the AHS website.

After starting a horseshoe pitching
club, a local resident has asked town
council for help to find a place to play.
Resident Wes Walker was introduced
to the game of horseshoe pitching
(horseshoes) after joining a club in
British Columbia.
“I got the bug,” he said. “So I’ve been
pitching ever since.”
After moving to Strathmore, he
formed a club complete with a presi-
dent, secretary and treasurer, that now
boasts 16 members. But they need a
place to play.

Stopping invasive carp

SEAN FEAGAN
Local Journalism Initiative Reporter
A species of carp is spreading throughout southern
Alberta’s waterways – and it is up to anglers to stop
their spread and, potentially, control their numbers.
The Prussian carp (Carassius gibelio) is a medium-
sized fish species related and similar in appearance
to goldfish (C. auratus). Native to Siberia, the species
has been introduced to and established within water-
bodies in Asia, Australia, Europe and, recently, North
America.
The first record of Prussian carp in North America
was reportedly made in south-central Alberta in 2000.
Subsequent fish sampling found the species in a num-
ber of nearby rivers and waterbodies, through efforts
conducted between 2006 and 2014.
The species was first found to inhabit “open wa-
ters” (e.g. a lake) in 2006, when one was collected
at West Lake, a waterbody connected to the Western
District Irrigation system located just 13 kilometres
east of Strathmore. The species was also confirmed
to inhabit Serviceberry Creek, the Red Deer River, the
Rosebud River (all in 2012) and the Bow River (2013),
all of which intersect or border Wheatland County.
As Prussian carp are nearly indistinguishable from
goldfish, a University of Calgary research team led by
Erick Elgin confirmed these observations using DNA,
in an approach similar to that used in crime scene
investigations.
The Alberta Conservation Association (ACA) contin-
ued to monitor the spread of the species in 2018 and
2019, using a newer technique called environmental
DNA (eDNA). Using this approach, water samples
were collected at various sites in 15 of Alberta’s river
basins, then were analyzed for the presence of the
species’ DNA, rather than sampling the species di-
rectly. They found evidence of the species in the Bow,
Red Deer, South Saskatchewan and Oldman basins.
The species can spread rapidly because they tol-
erate a wide range of environments, including wa-
terbodies with low oxygen and water quality, eat a
variety of food sources and reproduce rapidly, with
females spawning up to three times per year.
Prussian carp also use a unique form of reproduc-
tion, called gynogenesis, that does not actually involve
any males – at least not of the same species. “It’s kind
of a clonal form of reproduction; all the fish needs to
reproduce is sperm from another species that is simi-
lar enough to itself,” explained Britt Schmidt, an ACA
fish biologist who led the eDNA monitoring program.
“They don’t actually use any of the genetic compo-
nents of that sperm, it just triggers reproduction in a
female Prussian carp.”
Prussian carp can thus establish and proliferate
rapidly, then take up space and resources from na-
tive species, which may decline as a result, explained
Schmidt.
This can have economic impacts. “They can prevent
anglers from going out and catching native species. If
you’re constantly pulling carp out, it might make fish-
ing somewhere less attractive,” she said.
Also, once in irrigation canals, the species has the
potential to clog intakes and other infrastructure.
Once established, Prussian carp are difficult to
eradicate. “Trying to get rid of them is very challeng-
ing and is pretty much impossible,” said Schmidt. A Prussian carp caught from the Severn Dam Reservoir in Wheat-
land County on Aug. 15. The species has spread rapidly through
