The Empire is striking back at this weekend’s Eek! Comic and Pop Culture Festival at Servus Credit Union Place, as members of the 501st Legion — an international Star Wars costuming organization — take photos with fans for donations to the Sturgeon Community Hospital Foundation. Find out more about them on page 12.
That’s how much money movies in the Star Wars franchise have brought in at worldwide box offices, according to the-numbers.com. This includes Episodes I through VI, as well as Star Wars: The Clone Wars, released in 2008. The total production budget for these seven films totalled just $420 million. Episode VII is scheduled to be released Dec. 18, 2015.
Students, staff and administrators at a local elementary school are all beaming with pride this week after winning a rare “triple crown” award for their efforts in helping a child with autism learn and feel accepted.
On May 20 and 21, officials from the Autism Society of Edmonton Area (ASEA) travelled to a number of different school and workplaces throughout the Capital Region, handing out a number of their annual awards recognizing the efforts of those who improve the lives of those living with autism and help them integrate and participate in the community.
One of their stops was at J.J. Nearing Catholic Elementary School on Deer Ridge Drive, where educational assistant Tammy Curial and students in a Grade 5 class were honoured for their work helping Miguel Rodriguez, a student with autism.
“We have an educator category, we have key worker advocates, and we have employers or businesses. And the school actually got the triple crown,” said Jade Nesvold, communications officer for the ASEA.
According to Nesvold, a parent nominated Curial in the educator category and the school in the employer category, and Miguel’s classmates were nominated as advocates.
“It’s the whole community that come together to make the village,” she said. “It wasn’t just Tammy alone in a room; it’s the fact that it became an inclusive environment for (Miguel).”
Curial, though, was humble in
downplaying the award, saying she just wants what’s best for Miguel.
“It is an honour to be recognized, but I don’t do anything any different than everybody else,” she said. “I do what I have to do to make the kids successful.”
Curial has worked with Miguel for three years now, and she has taken many steps to help Miguel fit in at the school, including his own quiet area in the corner of the library where he can relax, eat his lunch and work on literacy skills.
“I think we have some kind of connection where we can read each other and understand each other, because Miguel’s non-verbal,” she said. “He trusts me, too. I’m not going to send him into a situation that’s uncomfortable for him.”
Miguel also has a service dog
at school with him named Chloe, who was provided by the Dogs with Wings Assistance Dog Society.
Curial said she has noticed a big difference in Miguel when Chloe is around as opposed to when she is not.
“I think she has a calming effect on him, and she helps with transitions from place to place,” she said. “On a day-to-day basis, we may notice it, but when she isn’t here, we notice it.”
The students in Miguel’s class have also been a big help, as they have reached out and accepted him as one of their own. They read and play games with him, hang out with him during the lunch hour, and stick by him during field trips.
“That’s what motivates Miguel: his peers. He likes to be with them,” Curial said. “All the Grade
5s are wonderful with him, but there are some that are more attracted and interested in him. And Miguel is motivated by them; he wants to be with his peers, like every other student.”
Awareness and acceptance of autism has grown over recent years as the number of diagnoses has increased, Nesvold said, but there is still a long way to go.
“The entire community is becoming aware of this and notice it and be able to identify,” she said. “We’re working toward acceptance, and that’s why schools like J.J. Nearing are so important, because it’s not the norm yet.”
Curial, though, has a simpler goal in mind for Miguel and other autistic kids.
“They’re just like you and me. They deserve to be like everybody else.”

The Northern Alberta International Children’s Festival has returned, and with it, a safe place for children and adults to act like kids.
Kicking off its 33rd season, the festival marks its 20th year being hosted by the City of St. Albert.
According to professional programming presenter Caitlin North, even though it is a kids’ festival, the performances aren’t plain.
“There has always been this misconception with theatre for young adults that it is this fluff work, and it isn’t,” North said. “I don’t think people give kids enough credit. They think that they won’t get it or that the subject matter is just a bit too involved, but I always find that even the youngest kids take something from some of these shows.”
From North’s perspective, this year’s festival proves that. From shadow theatre/puppetry based on the life of Louis Braille (A Touch of Life), to a production that is one part graphic novel and
one part radio play (Intergalactic Nemesis), the shows are not simplified.
Added to this list is the fact that there are performers representing Israel, France, the United States, Tanzania, various Canadian provinces and Namibia. In North’s eyes, the festival is diverse as the children who attend.
“There truly is an international flavour and I think that is one of the coolest things about getting to be able to program a festival like this,” she said. “We are so lucky to be able to present this kind of work and have the platform to teach kids these types of things. We have this wonderful platform to introduce them to different cultures and performers.”
The Northern Alberta International Children’s Festival runs until Saturday, and North couldn’t be happier.
“I have the best job in the festival, I think,” she said. “It is busy for me but most of my work is done earlier on. Then I get to go and watch everything with the kids and watch them take in performances. It is pretty awesome.”

Nine recommendations on the allocation new school sites were presented as information to city council. The final presentation
and vote will be at the June 12 joint meeting with Greater
St. Albert Catholic Schools, the Conseil Scolaire du Centre-Nord,
and St. Albert Public Schools.
City council reviewed recommendations that would change the Governance and
City Manager Policy, which the City Manager works under. The intent is to consolidate policies and increase delegations to the
City Manager for increased effectiveness.
Some amendments presented are now incorporated into the Governance
and City Manager Policy. Staff and Council will work together on
clarifying other amendments, which outline the policy on monitoring the
performance of the City Manager. Those will be presented to city
council on Sept. 22.
With city councillors’ feedback taken into
account, a final draft of the recommendations will
be presented at the joint meeting with the three school divisions on June 12 for final
approval.

he experiences I had as a child living and playing in
St. Albert have moulded me into the person I am today and continue to inf luence me as I move forward in life. I represent the generation who experienced the Children’s Festival as a youngster and who are now returning with their own children with fond memories of music, art, entertainment and an incredible sense of community. My children love to hear stories of “when daddy was a little boy, I used to dream of being a travelling juggler or living on the moon.” Or at least I tell myself they do.
Many of my friends, who have children of their own, share the same
sentiment and experience. The Northern Alberta International Children’s Festival has reached that cross-generational status, creating memories for children and adults alike.
The mandate of the International Children’s Festival is simple — expose children to the arts in an entertaining and educational way. Plant the seeds of creativity, curiosity and discovery. Tell stories of far away places, teach about our diverse Canadian culture, and help create masterpieces.
I am very proud to be part of a dynamic team who are responsible for creating lifelong learning experiences for my peers, my children and the region. This team pushes the boundaries of traditional children’s programming to ensure each activity and performance has a real, hands-on connection to school curriculum and today’s environment. It’s inspiring to watch children take something from their textbooks — a dreamcatcher, a paper crane, a solar powered car, or a soundboard — and bring it to life.
The reason for including the word “international” in our event is a purposeful one. The reality of living in such a culturally diverse
country as Canada, coupled with the ever shrinking global community, is that exposure to different cultures, languages, traditions and stories help our children grow up learning to appreciate and embrace the things that make Canada unique.
Whether it’s watching dance from India, storytelling from Namibia, visual artistry from France, puppetry from Israel or folk music from Quebec, that look of inspiration and awe on the children’s faces energizes the Festival team and brings the community back year after year.
There is nothing more brilliant than to watch a child grin from ear to ear as they Let their Imagination Take Flight.
top the candidates for the Alberta Progressive Conservative party leadership if you’ve heard this one
before.On Saturday, the three candidates who
have declared so far — Thomas Lukaszuk, Ric McIver and Jim Prentice — faced off in a debate for the first time, talking policy and taking selfies at NAIT in Edmonton.
“Faced off” might be a little strong of a term, though. It may be more like they got together to agree about things. By most accounts, there weren’t many issues that the trio of would-be premiers verbally sparred over, instead seemingly singing from the same song sheet.
One of the issues they all agreed on was the awarding of government contracts to lobbyists or to companies owned by their friends or family. “Government is about public service, not private enrichment,” McIver told the crowd. Prentice echoed that sentiment, saying that his leadership would “mean the end of sweetheart contracts for political staff, a change of lobby rules so people cannot lobby the government one day and work for it the next and it will mean the end of sole-source contracts for everyone.” Lukaszuk agreed and tried to distance himself from the mistakes of Alison Redford’s regime, again reminding anyone who will listen that he moved from the fourth floor of the legislature building to the basement.
The problem is, though, that it feels like we’ve heard this all before. Leadership hopeful after leadership hopeful has spouted a different iteration of the same line, only to get elected and either find themselves under such immense pressure or so drunk with power that the one thing they promised not to do becomes the one thing they are known for.
So forgive us Albertans if we take what the PC leadership hopefuls have to say with a grain of salt this time around. These are lines we’ve heard time and again, and they’re very much starting to ring hollow. If Prentice, Lukaszuk or McIver really want to get Albertans’ attention, they need to separate themselves from the pack and make a promise we might actually believe they’ll keep for once.

If their environmental consulting jobs don’t work out, maybe the folks at the Trace Associates office in St. Albert have a future in filmmaking.
For the second year in a row, the St. Albert office beat out other Trace Associates offices across Alberta and Saskatchewan in the company’s annual social media video contest, using a zombie theme in their video to amass the most views on YouTube and win $1,000 for their charity of choice, the Stollery
Children’s Hospital Foundation.“We’re very proud. Two years in a row
is a pretty big accomplishment, because we have probably a third of our company involved in the contest, so it’s very nice to see,” said Trace president Darrell Haight.
This is the third year the contest has been held. The Calgary office won the first year. Trace also has offices in Lethbridge; Stettler, Alta.; Saskatoon; and Davidson, Sask.
The social media contest started as a way to have a little fun while also refreshing the company’s marketing activities.
“We viewed it as an opportunity to do some team-building, have some fun, and also create a unique marketing opportunity,” Haight said.
And he said it has exceeded all the expectations he had when it started up.
“It’s fabulous ... it’s one of the most anticipated we have on the go here, and I think it’s really raised awareness with our staff in terms of the charities we support and just getting involved with charities,” Haight said. “It has exceeded my expectations all around.”
The local office’s video is still available to watch online on YouTube.

Members of the 501st Legion may be dressed like bad guys, but underneath all that armour are caring hearts.
The 501st Legion is an international group of Star Wars fans who don authentic-looking costumes of various Imperial soldiers from the movies to raise money for charities. And members of the group’s Badlands Garrison — which covers British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan — will be in St. Albert this weekend to take part in the first-ever Eek! Comic and Pop Culture Festival at Servus Credit Union Place, posing for photos with fans in exchange for a donation to the Sturgeon Community Hospital Foundation.
“Any convention is fun, but especially a new one that’s just starting up; you really want to help it and support it,” said Lydia “Deez” Lees, one of the Badlands Garrison’s event co-ordinators. “I’m pretty excited we can be on the ground for the first one and hopefully help it be quite successful in the future.”
But even better than raising money for charity is seeing the reactions of kids when they see the stormtroopers marching their way.
“It makes the whole endeavour of putting together armour worth it,” she said. “It can be a little stressful and frustrating and annoying putting together a kit some days; you’ve got to work through the problems, but it’s worth it.”
The 501st Legion was founded in 1997 by a man named Albin Johnson, who had a few Star Wars costumes of his own and started visiting hospitals in costumes.
“He found that you could do a really good thing with these costumes,” Lees said. “So he started the 501st, and it has now become a worldwide organization — we’re in 47 countries with 6,000 active members.”
The costumes are “100 per cent owned and made” by members, Lees added, with parts that come in kits from other members.
“There are a lot of resources out there. It’s just knowing people
in the group and going online; everyone’s super helpful and super friendly.”
Lees started out wearing a Darth Nihilus costume, a Sith lord from the Old Republic era, but appeared on the Eek! float at the Rainmaker Rodeo and Exhibition parade on Saturday wearing a clone trooper costume from Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Other members at the parade wore traditional stormtrooper or Tusken raider costumes.
While the costumes look awesome from the outside, they can be uncomfortable inside, especially in hot weather.
“It depends on the costume you wear, because we have lots of different costumes — from Darth Talon, which is literally wearing a bikini and body paint, all the way
to ... Darth Vader, which is really hot, because it’s a full leather jumpsuit,” Lees said, noting that some members have developed tricks like wearing ice packs or installing fans in their helmets to deal with the heat.
When the local garrison makes appearances or hosts their own events, they often find Star Wars fans who want to join up but didn’t know anything like the
group existed.“We are always keen to have
people join as well,” Lees said.Lees herself said she’s always
been a big Star Wars fan since first watching the movies, and always wanted to be a stormtrooper.
“I’ve always loved Star Wars and I’ve always loved charity and volunteer work, so it just seemed like the perfect combination,” she said.
And, while the Badlands is her home garrison, there’s a lot of camaraderie among members of the 501st Legion, something that stretches across borders and even oceans.
“I’m going to be working in the U.K. for a couple of months at the end of this year,” Lees said, “and I’m already on the United Kingdom garrison’s (message) boards. They’re like, ‘If you’re going to be living in this area, you’ve got to come down for dinner! And there’s this local convention, so bring a costume.’ ... It’s a very friendly, close-knit community.”

Brick by brick, members of the Northern Alberta Lego Users Group (NALUG) are looking to create something spectacular.
The group will be part of the Eek! Comic and Pop Culture Festival taking place this weekend at Servus Credit Union Place in St. Albert, giving members a chance to break out some Lego creations that don’t often get to be displayed.
“It’s somewhere else where we can display the stuff that’s been sitting in our basements for the last year,” said Laszlo Szojka, a member of the group who hails from St. Albert. “There are some guys who have amazing Battlestar Galactica pieces that have never been shown, and that’s what this show is for.”
But Battlestar Galactica won’t be the only show or movie represented.
“There’s going to be a lot of Star Wars — a large Hoth display, AT-ATs ... dioramas, some other tall buildings,” Szojka said.
Some of the displays can take as long as six months to a year to complete — but that’s only after the builder has collected all the parts they need.
“The biggest difficulty is getting the parts,” Szojka said. “The collection of parts might take two or three years. Building
and designing it, you can always play and tinker, but to collect the parts can sometimes take years.”
“It’s not like you can go to Wal-Mart and buy all these bricks at once,” he added. “Online, you can buy bricks, and there’s a mechanism for us to buy from Lego too,
but it’s very infrequent. People can look for certain pieces for a long time in the bulk they need.”
Another big challenge can be moving displays, some of which are massive and fragile.
“We’ve moved things in trucks; we’ve
had to get a semi truck to move our stuff,” Szojka said. “It’s crazy. Everyone has a certain way of building, and so we (have to figure out) the size they’re basing it on. ... We make a show when we arrive.”
The NALUG started in 1999, and today counts around 40 people among its membership. That number is slowly but steadily growing.
“Every year, it has been growing by a couple of members a year,” Szojka said. “(People find out us) through these events, or our train show, or we have an online presence. The Lego Store (in south Edmonton) knows about us as well.”
Szojka has been a member since 2001, and said he’s been into Lego ever since he was a kid.
“The only time I was away from Lego was when I was away at university,” he said. “Other than that, I got back into when my kids were born, and just went crazy after that.”
The group also participates in the Greater Edmonton Train Show each year, as well as the Saskatoon Model Train Show and displays at malls throughout Northern Alberta. They have also done displays for museums and science centres.

With a new theme for 2014, officials with the Art Gallery of St. Albert are hoping their annual fundraiser really blooms.
The 24th edition of the fundraiser — dubbed the “Gallery Garden Party” — will be held Saturday, June 7, at the AGSA (19 Perron St.) from 6:30 to 9 p.m. The evening will feature live music, hors d’oeuvres and the chance to take home original works of art either through the sale or the silent auction.
“Some artists have given us one (piece), some have given us eight. But the show will be very versatile; there should be something for everyone,” said Jenny Willson-McGrath, the AGSA’s curator of exhibits.
Works at the fundraiser will range from $50 to more than $500, with proceeds being split between the gallery and the artist. Some of the local artists whose artwork will up for sale at the show include Doris Charest, Father Douglas, Karen Blanchet, Kristine McGuinty, Helen Rogers, Judy Schafers and Pat Trudeau.
The garden party theme itself was brainstormed by staff at the gallery along with staff at the Arts and Heritage Foundation of St. Albert, and takes advantage of the small garden area that the
gallery added on the back of their building about three years ago.
“We felt like, in the springtime, summertime, it would be a really good fit for us. And we like to think we host a rather fancy party,” Willson-McGrath said with a laugh.
The party will also feature garden party-themed foods like tea and cake, and a photo booth, which proved popular last year.
The money raised through the fundraiser goes straight back into the gallery’s programming and exhibitions.
“It helps us keep our prices low in all the programs we offer to schools and the community,” Willson-McGrath said. “And for exhibitions, it’s not just paint for the walls and nails to hang pictures, but also paying artists to take part in our shows.”
Last year’s fundraiser did fairly well, she added, and splitting the proceeds with the artists seemed to go over well.
“The 50-50 split is very good in terms of the community and the artist,” she said. “Obviously it means we raise a lot less money when all the accounting is done, but we win in other ways, and so do they.”
Tickets to the Gallery Garden Party are available through the AGSA’s website at www.artgalleryofstalbert.ca or in person at the gallery.

It’s a question with an alarmingly simple answer.
How can Edmonton — without the natural beauty of mountains, seaside, lakes or badlands — attract significant numbers of out-of-province and international tourists?
We’re talking genuine tourists, not those visiting relatives or friends.
West Edmonton Mall attracts “rubber-tire” tourism — visitors driving to Edmonton. But the mighty mall doesn’t attract much in the way of international shoppers.
The answer lies in a four-acre chunk of undeveloped land at the west end of the 158-acre Fort Edmonton Park, nestled next to the Quesnell Bridge in the river valley.
The answer is “Phonan” (pronounced pa-ho-nahn) — the Cree word for a waiting or gathering place.
Close your eyes. Let your imagination wander.
Imagine a year-round First Nations exhibit/experience/living museum/theatre/themed trails, honouring our region’s past-and-present aboriginal community with cultural integrity and historical accuracy.
Imagine this living museum/experience being the very best of its kind in the world, by and for indigenous peoples.
Phonan is the crown jewel in Fort Edmonton Park’s proposed $150 million “renaissance.” It rings every bell imaginable.
Done right, Phonan could bring tens of thousands of “new” tourists” into Edmonton, year-round, from all over the world, all motivated by a fascination for aboriginal culture.
It rings all the bells.Interest in things aboriginal has
never been higher, both in Canada and abroad.
Phonan “The Indigenous Peoples’ Experience” is part of a national need to show appreciation and respect for an abused culture stretching some 20,000 years back in this country.
Phonan is very much part of Edmonton history. Way before the arrival of the white people, in the river valley below what’s now downtown Edmonton, the Cree, Blackfoot and other First Nations held phonans for centuries; to trade, to hold ceremonies, to have fun and enjoy festivities.
Aboriginal culture has come to symbolize what younger generations are
demanding the world over — respect for the land. For our First Nations groups and Fort Edmonton Park to take such a lead in promoting aboriginal awareness near-guarantees the arrive of new national and international tourists.
In terms of Canada’s international reputation, Phonan would offset the Evil Empire image of the oil sands created environmental organizations.
So doing it right is all-important.It’s not about money. Fort Edmonton
Park needs to raise $150 million — $50 million for Phonan, $50 million to replace worn-out infrastructure, $50 million for other attractions and new tourist facilities — in part so the park can be open year-round.
The overall project is so attractive, from so many points of view, that raising the full $150 million from three levels of government and the private sector appears quite do-able.
“Doing it right” is about getting the Phonan aboriginal/Fort Edmonton Park partnership right from the outset: About coming up with a Phonan governing/management/programming model created and run by our First Nations people, yet still acknowledging Fort Edmonton Park’s ultimate responsibility for the project.
Fort Edmonton Park is applying for federal money being put aside for Canada’s 150th birthday in 2017, hence an optimistic opening date of the new, improved park, including Phonan, by the fall of 2017.
This project will happen — under board chair Doug Goss, the park had already raised $30 million for improvements over the past decade. Edmontonians love Fort Edmonton Park and want to see it grow. The Phonan project has so much upside, including new tourism dollars, that we’d be fools to let this opportunity slip away.
What’s being built at Fort Edmonton Park may celebrate the hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years of human history in our river valley, but it’s being built to last for hundreds of years to come.
So if it takes longer than three years to do it right, so be it.

Price-shocked meat-eaters might be astounded by a new analysis that shows the cost of most grocery items has dropped since last year.
An agriculture think-tank has digested the latest food cost trends and determined that most prices — especially in middle grocery aisles, where packaged food is sold — are leaner in general than they were a year ago.
“Consumers aren’t remotely thinking they’re getting a bargain ... (but) the consumers are winning,” said Kevin Grier, senior market analyst with the George Morris Centre, a Guelph, Ont.-based ag think-tank.
“Even though they’re paying through the nose on meats right now, they’re not paying as much as the grocers’ increases.”
In packaged food, customers are seeing food deflation of about two per cent.
The numbers surprised even Grier, who figured that higher prices for red meat would mean grocery bills jump higher than the 1.4 per cent annual inflation rate.
Not so, he discovered by comparing Statistics Canada data for the first three months of 2013 and 2014.
The price of an average food basket has increased just one per cent; within that basket, meat and produce prices have increased about four per cent.
The packaged-food segment has been fiercely contested with the entry of stores that aren’t conventional supermarkets — Target, Walmart and Shoppers Drug Mart, as examples.
“That’s the area of the store that is a real battlefield,” Grier said.
That may be good news for shoppers “but it puts a squeeze” on processors whose profit margins become even smaller, said Steve Peters, executive director of the Alliance of Ontario Food Processors.
He noted Canadians still spend a far lower percentage of their dollar on food than people in most developed countries.
Price-matching policies of some stores also drive down prices.
That may present more opportunities by processors to promote the value, not just the price point, of Ontario-grown and -processed food, Peters said.
Being a tenant at the Northern Alberta Business Incubator is a very unique position for a small business. Between two buildings, we rent office space to nearly 70 businesses and provide mailboxes and reception services to over a dozen others.
That means, as a NABI tenant, you might have an IT company on one side of you, an accounting firm on the other side, and a psychologist a few doors down. Some of our tenants are brand new businesses, while others are long-running organizations that have outgrown their basement offices. As a mixed-use incubator, our buildings are filled with vibrant entrepreneurs that run nearly every type of business imaginable. Some of our more unique tenants include gel nails, a chemistry lab, skate sharpening and hypnotherapy. It’s quite a collection!
Best of all, these tenants have the opportunity to learn from each other, regardless of their industry. Last week, one of our newest tenants hosted an “office warming” party. Roberta Hardern of Mortgage Success orchestrated the midday event to celebrate her recent move into NABI’s Campbell Park building. In addition to professionals in her field, she invited
all of her NABI neighbours to increase the size of her network.
The soiree was simple bites and mingling, and with several dozen attendees, it was also wildly successful. Tons of tenants and outside industry professionals were able to connect and trade cards. For some of our newer businesses, it was a great example of creating your own opportunities for success.
NABI has two in-house business coaches, but that isn’t the only
mentorship we see within our walls. Small businesses frequently network, collaborate, and help
each other out with resources and ideas. When it comes to best
practices, you may not need to track down the leader in your field — you may
be able to walk down the hall.
Each one of our tenants has a unique talent,
whether it’s marketing, salesmanship,
social media, project management, networking, or putting together a top-notch team. We can’t all be superstars in every aspect of running a business, which is why NABI tenants work together to make things happen.
Brittany Kustra is the Communications and Leasing Co-ordinator for the Northern
Alberta Business Incubator.
