Milo is at the centre right edge. The photo was shot January 28th, and near or far, with the exception of some shaded coulees at the edge of the valley, there is NO snow. Roads are clear and dry, ranchers are happy, and Albertans wishing to view deep snow merely have to turn on the TV to watch people in Toronto try and get to and from work. - Photo by Cameron Klem The Milo Can Opener A Community Newsletter published by Volunteers Layout Editors: Subscriptions Notices Cameron Klem Barb Godkin Barb Godkin Can be left at Milo Library Any Can Opener volunteer 403-485-1592 403-485-8389 403-485-8389 Advertising: (Single Insertion) (Annual - includes subscription) Business Directory $ 5.00 $ 60.00 Quarter Page $ 6.00 $ 72.00 Half Page $ 8-60 $ 96.00 Full Page $15.00 $180.00 Classified Ads $ 2.00 Free Items: Event Notices Announcements: Wedding, Anniversary Births, Showers, etc. Cards of Thanks News Items Articles of Interest Editorial Content: Letters to the Editor are welcome.

Things that were not thought anything of years ago are now politically incorrect or offensive to some segment of society. And I suppose some of that is for the good. But there are other boundaries that have shifted, and not for the good, in my humble opinion. At our house, dinner was a family time. There was no television left on, there were no telephone calls allowed. It may not have been exciting, but we were a family. In today's world, how many families sit down at a table, all at the same time and share a quiet meal, uninterrupted? There are cell phones to look at, meeting/practice/something to get to. The family taxi is wailing at the door so dinner is a rushed thing with no time to just be a family. I low do we expect children to learn the sanctity of time, space and relationships? Parents need to teach their children about boundaries. And how do I expect them to do this? Limit technology's hold on them. There is no need for cell phones in the eating area. There is no need for the television to be on. Dinner is a time to sit down and discuss the good and bad of the day. Dinner is a time to be a family before there is a need to fly off in different directions as the world claims as much of your time as it can. How can one be connected to real people and the real world if there is chronic electronic interference? Of course, 1 am one of those dinosaurs that doesn't even cariy a cell phone. If 1 was important enough, perhaps I might consider it but I can't think of too many people that I need to hear from on an immediate basis. The constant demands on our limited resource (time) should make us prioritize our lives. What are the limits you could impose on your life that would be of benefit to you? And your family?

Notes from Parliament by­Martin Shields MP, Bow River Constituency: The 2019 Federal election, and Oil & Gas: It's finally 2019, and the next federal election is right around the corner. The election will be fought over a number of important issues, but I think Canada's energy sector will be front and center. The issue of pipelines has dominated debate in our country for years now. Unfortunately, I think that far too many Canadians simply have no idea how much they benefit from our oil and gas sector. It is a massive revenue source for the government, and many key services like healthcare and the military are funded by oil and gas. If you have a pension fund, it is likely heavily invested in the sector. And the jobs and prosperity that the industry creates have benefits from coast to coast to coast. Many of you have likely heard the ethical oil argument - but we need Canadians across the country to understand it. When we import oil, it doesn't come from environmentally responsible oil industries. As our Conservative leader Andrew Scheer recently said - the real dirty oil is from Saudi Arabia. If we were to completely shut down Canadian energy production (as some extremists seem to want, and as the Prime Minister has said he wants to do) we would still need oil and gas. So-called green energy sources have nowhere near the capacity or technological viability to heat millions of home and fuel transportation in a country as vast as ours. So we would be using the same amount of oil and gas, but importing it from countries with environmental regulations that simply don't compare to Canada's. I know that many of you in our riding already know how beneficial our oil and gas industry is. The recent rally for Canadian resources in Brooks had a massive turnout, and I want to thank everyone who took time out of their day to show their support. But we need more Canadians to know that Canada is responsible for only 1.6% of global emissions and that Canada is a major carbon sink. We need Canadians to know that our oil and gas industry has made enormous strides in producing energy more sustainably. And we need Canadians to know that the Liberal government's plan for our energy sector simply makes no sense. I look forward to debating this issue throughout 2019. I can be reached in Ottawa at 613-992-0761 or martin.shields@parl.gc.ca. My Brooks office can be reached at 403-793-6775 or martin.shields.cl@parl.gc.ca My Strathmore office can be reached at 403-361-2980 or martin.shields.clB@parl.gc.ca.
