Let’s make sure that no one in our communities go hungry this holiday season.The holiday season is just around the corner and this year the South West Communities Resource Centre (SWCRC) will be helping local families in 28 communities make it through the stressful time of November and December 2016. Our community resource workers often see local families who require food hampers and help others with resources for basic needs; unfortunately the demand for these services are expected to grow in the weeks to come. We understand that the neighbourhoods in South West Calgary are diverse and there are many who continue to thrive, while others are struggling to pay bills, put food on their tables and meet their basic needs. We need the help of Neighbours Helping Neighbours.

This holiday season the SWCRC will focus on the “Celebra-tion of Food” – something that ties families together no matter what your culture is or your family’s belief. Food is an extension of all cultures that brings people together and gives us something to share. It encourages conversa-tions. Sadly many families will not have the gift of great food on their plates this year. Budgets for food are the � rst to slip and food hampers don’t provide choice. This year we are asking for YOUR help in providing opportunities for vulnerable families to purchase their own groceries.

For six weeks in November and December 2016 we are asking neighbours to help by purchasing a Grocery Gift card for us to give to local families who can use your sup-port. Your donation of $50.00 will put fresh produce on the table for a family of four. A donation of $100.00 will provide the dairy and breads with the fresh produce, and 250.00 will allow a family in South West Calgary celebrate a feast with all the trimmings. We ask that you provide a receipt with the card and you will be provided a charitable dona-tion receipt. We are also happy to accept � nancial contri-butions which will support many of these families in 2017.

Visit us online at www.swcrc.ca, call the o� ce at 403 238-9222 or drop by our o� ce in the Oakridge Co-Op Plaza.

Thanks for helping to make south west Calgary the best place to live for all residents.

IN & AROUNDCALGARY

EMS: Yielding to Emergency VehiclesTime is the enemy in any emergency. For everyone’s safety it is important for motorists to understand how to correctly yield right of way to emergency vehicles with lights and si-ren activated. You can help EMS, police, and � re get to the scene quickly and safely by following these rules of the road.

When an emergency vehicle approaches with lights and siren activated:• If you’re in the middle of an intersection when an emer-

gency vehicle approaches with lights and siren activated, safely clear the intersection.

• On a one or two lane road, motorists should move to the right side of the road, slow down, and then stop. Remem-ber to signal.

• On a road with three or more lanes, motorists should move to the nearest side of the road and stop. If driving in the centre lane, move to the right side of the road and stop. Remember to signal.

• Come to a complete stop and wait for the emergency vehicle to pass. Shoulder check for more emergency ve-hicles (there is often more than one!) before re-entering tra� c � ow. Remember to signal.

• Emergency vehicles might use any available road space to maneuver. This could include the shoulders or left hand turning lanes in order to pass other tra� c.

When operating a vehicle:• Drive attentively and defensively at all times. Be cogni-

zant to sirens and be prepared to yield the right of way. • It is Alberta law for motorists to slow down to at least 60

km/hour (unless a lower speed is posted) when driving past a stopped emergency vehicle. This includes EMS, po-lice, � re, and tow trucks with their lights activated.

• Do not break the rules of the road in order to give right of way to an emergency vehicle. This could include proceed-ing through a red light or making an illegal turn. Actions such as these jeopardize all motorists in the area.

• Drivers must place their full attention on the roadway and toward the safe operation of their vehicle at all times. The � ne for distracted driving in Alberta is $287.00.

• Always leave plenty of space between your vehicle and an emergency vehicle should it be required to stop sud-denly.


I would like to extend appreciation at those whom at-tended our AGM, very good turn out and pleasing to see so many new faces including new Directors. We are o� to a busy start wrapping up old business and tabling new business for us to work on.

Our primary focus at this time from an operations main-tenance perspective is the South Patio Project to reline the patio membrane making it water proof again, elec-trical panel upgrades, and the storm drain line repairs.

The exterior painting has wrapped up for the season and it will resume in the spring with the team looking at options for mural designs taking us into the next millen-nia. Drop by and check out the fresh new look outside and inside the Centre.

We are collaborating again for our third session with Sean Peter (403) 988-9409 and will host the third bas-ketball camp on November 26th from 4:30 – 9:30pm and 27th from 1pm -6pm. The program is a great success showing a wide age group attendance.

We are collaborating for the � rst time with Julie Marsh formerly of Walk live now named “Cedarbrae Paceset-ters”. The program has shown great attendance with a wide age group. The program runs Mondays and Thurs-days from 10:30-11:30am respectively with a Saturday morning session at the same time. Please contact Julie at (403) 251-6717.

One of our Cedarbrae residents, Dave Anderson, a hockey enthusiast has approached the Board preparing a proposal to have the ice rink running this fall/winter season. Please keep a watchful eye on our website and blogs for updates; we may need more volunteers to help. I might add that St. Cyril volunteers are also instru-mental in this endeavour.

We completed the 2016/2017 program schedule with the Calgary Pickleball Club o� ering Pickleball, this year the sport will be o� ered almost every day of the week starting on October 30th, 2016. Come on by, we have many seasoned players willing to teach the sport and watch for the clinic dates, the � rst one � lled up in two days.

We have a new program that started in October, AKI-DIO self defense that runs on Mondays and Thursdays for children and adults. For more information, contact George at (430) 870-0937.

Meet Your Neighbor Night is scheduled for Novem-ber 19th, 2016 from 6-9pm at the Centre, hope to see you there.

Many of our regular programs have restarted their sea-son so check out our calendar and website or call the o� ce for information. The Centre also brings many cel-ebrations, weddings, birthdays, parties of all kinds. We o� er some beautiful renovated spaces for rent; please call the Centre o� ce to book a tour, we would love to have you.

Community memberships are still available for our 2016/2017 membership year. Our members have found the heart and soul of Cedarbrae. Meeting new friends, learning new skills, getting involved in community deci-sion making, and having a real impact on the lives of others. Membership applications can be completed and dropped o� at the Centre.

Please visit our web page: mycedarbrae.ca, Twitter: @Cedarbraeinfo or like us on Facebook. The centre o� ce is often open too; stop by to check out all the activity happening in our neighbourhood.

Look forward to seeing you at the Centre.

SouthWest Communities Resource Centre Let’s make sure that no one in our communities go hungry this holiday season.The holiday season is just around the corner and this year the South West Communities Resource Centre (SWCRC) will be helping local families in 28 communi-ties make it through the stressful time of November and December 2016. Our community resource workers often see local families who require food hampers and help others with resources for basic needs; unfortunate-ly the demand for these services are expected to grow in the weeks to come. We understand that the neigh-bourhoods in South West Calgary are diverse and there are many who continue to thrive, while others are strug-gling to pay bills, put food on their tables and meet their basic needs. We need the help of Neighbours Helping Neighbours.

This holiday season the SWCRC will focus on the “Cele-bration of Food” – something that ties families together no matter what your culture is or your family’s belief. Food is an extension of all cultures that brings people together and gives us something to share. It encourag-es conversations. Sadly many families will not have the gift of great food on their plates this year. Budgets for food are the � rst to slip and food hampers don’t provide choice. This year we are asking for YOUR help in provid-ing opportunities for vulnerable families to purchase their own groceries.

Neighbours Helping Neighbours

For six weeks in November and December 2016 we are asking neighbours to help by purchasing a Grocery Gift card for us to give to lo-cal families who can use your support. Your donation of $50.00 will put fresh produce on the table for a family of four. A donation of $100.00 will provide the dairy and breads with the fresh pro-duce, and 250.00 will allow a family in South West Calgary celebrate a feast with all the trimmings. We ask that you provide a receipt with the card and you will be provided a charitable donation receipt. We are also happy to accept � nancial contribu-tions which will support many of these families in 2017.

Visit us online at www.swcrc.ca, call the o� ce at 403 238-9222 or drop by our o� ce in the Oakridge Co-Op Plaza.

Thanks for helping to make south west Calgary the best place to live for all residents.

Dear Constituents:

As we begin the fall legislature, I want to look back and highlight many satisfying engagement opportunities I had in Calgary Glenmore throughout the summer. First of all, I want to thank everyone who participated in my Telephone Town Hall on September 21, 2016. We had over 1500 call-ins with numerous participants contrib-uting excellent questions. I hope you felt as engaged as I during this new forum for constituency outreach. My goal is to o� er diverse ways of staying in touch that work best so we keep working together and strength-ening our communities.

It has been an exciting time. I attended the AGMs of SWCRC as well as many of our community associations along with other important events and board meetings in Calgary-Glenmore. I cherished moments at the 50th anniversary of our Calgary Rowing Club, Filipino Fiesta, Calgary Pride parade, Walk of Hope for Ovarian Cancer, Field of Fame by Alberta Champions and Alberta’s Gift to the Nation: the Story of the Colonist car #1205 at Heri-tage Park, Women of Inspiration Award Ceremony, Mak-ing Treaty 7, An Engagement with Seniors at Centennial Calgary Branch 285 Royal Canadian Legion and several citizenship ceremonies. Based on the conversations I had, I would like to provide more feedback to recently asked questions. I hope you � nd the following helpful. For further inquiries please do not hesitate to contact our o� ce.

Student Aid: Tuition, apprenticeship and material fees, and mandatory non-instructional fees for domestic students remain frozen throughout the 2016/2017 aca-demic year. The government invested a two percent in-crease to post-secondary institution budgets for 2016. For example, Alberta’s government doubled the value of grants targeted to low-income student loan borrow-ers, eliminating the use of spousal income as an eligi-bility criteria, expanding eligibility for student loans to apprentices, and increasing living allowances and loan limits. When needed, there are programs in place to

help students set up manageable repayment plans that are in sync with their income and family size.

Curriculum Development: Our government’s new ap-proach to developing curriculum will span six years and work will be done simultaneously on six subject areas. This will build better connections across subjects and infuse First Nations, Metis and Inuit, as well as Franco-phone content into all areas of the curriculum. It is an-ticipated that the development of new curriculum will be completed for Kindergarten to Grade 4 in late 2018, Grades 5 to 8 in late 2019, and high school curriculum will be � nished in phases throughout 2020 to 2022. Al-bertans will have the opportunity to provide feedback on the development of new curriculum before 2017. Speci� c attention will be given to our Indigenous part-ners, as we invest funding over six years to ensure they are properly consulted.

Save the date: Season’s Greetings O� ce Open House on Friday, December 9th, 2016 from 4-6PM!

We always welcome your ideas/suggestion for more en-gagement opportunities with your MLA and therefore, please share your thoughts with us.

COUNCILLOR, WARD 11BRIAN PINCOTTP.O. Box 2100 Stn. M, #8001ACalgary, AB T2P 2M5403-268-2430 • www.ward11calgary.ca

We’ve heard many questions and comments on di� erent developments happening within our established com-munities and thought we’d share some information on The City’s Planning System. In an e� ort to help make The City of Calgary’s planning and development pro-cess both more accessible and clearer to citizens, The City has created a new online mapping tool: the Plan-ning and Development Map (PD Map). You can � nd it online by entering ‘PD Map’ into the search bar at www.calgary.ca.

With the PD Map, you can track, contact and provide comments on Land Use redesignation proposals and large-scale development permits. Anyone can follow the progress of the � le from submission through to decision by City Council. PD Maps is currently in its � rst phase; additional features will be added, such as the ability to comment on smaller Development Permits which are discretionary or are requesting relaxations. Here are PD Maps current features:• Multiple Search Options

• Find out what is happening in your community, or in the city. Search by address, community, ward or � le number. You can also scroll around the map, apply the Google Maps layer, or roll over a � le to highlight the area proposed for development.

• Social Media Sharing• Share � le information on your social media channels

to increase community engagement on a � le. • File Status Tracker

• Follow the status of the application from initial to � nal submission by City Council. Learn about the process and at what times comments can be submitted.

• Direct Comments and Feedback• Your comments on a � le go directly to the � le man-

ager or City Clerk’s, depending on what stage the application is at.

• Accessible Online and by Mobile• Plain Language Descriptions

PD Maps is also tied to another innovative Planning System project, the Notice Posting Pilot. You can � nd it online by entering ‘Notice Posting Pilot’ into the search bar at www.calgary.ca.The City has redesigned

Notice Postings (signs) so they are larger, more visually appealing, have easily understandable project descriptions, and direct citizens to the PD Map.

These complimentary tools are both intended to in-crease public participation in the application process. Please contact my o� ce for help with this new tool, or to learn about other tools are at your disposal.

Lastly, remember to subscribe to your Ward 11 update at www.ward11calgary.ca to receive timely updates on projects in your community, and city.
