The Page joins High Prairie town council in giving Mazin Sharkawi a big pat on the back for a job well done!
Sharkawi organized the High Prairie Co-Ed Classic Hockey Tournament a few months ago and presented council with a cheque for $3,234.69 (see photo at the bottom on this page).
The good news is Sharkawi plans other events (to be announced) similar to the hockey tournament. He told council he is open to “any recreation event” to raise money.
Even better news is Sharkawi says he would like to eventually form a Rotary Club. Such a club would be a tremendous asset to the region.
“Anything I can do to introduce positivity in the community, I’m all for it,” he says.
Another big tip of the cap to Peace River Rotaract. You can read about their latest project back on page 5.
Rotaract has done great things in the Land of 12-Foot Davis the last few years.
The fact is, there are many organizations in each community who do excellent work. We try to feature as many of them as possible. Drop us a line if you want some recognition!
Looks like it is going to be 33 years and counting!
At the time of this writing May 28, the last Canadian hope for a Stanley Cup winner was Montreal, and they were down 3-1 to the Carolina Hurricanes. After four games, it looked like the Hurricanes were a vastly superior team and Montreal had little hope of a comeback.
Oh, well! Always next year!
Gosh, Canadians hockey fans must be sick of saying that!
Could be worse. Could be a Leafs fan!
Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada needs a “new partnership” with the United States.
What we might need even more are new leaders in Canada and America!
The Page figures the only “new partnership” Carney and President Donald Trump would be interested in is one that makes the money.
Carney may love Canada, and Trump may love American, but their first true love is money, money, money and more money! Follow the money trail in many of their deals. Who benefits first? You know!
There is a report from the East that says a referendum on Alberta leaving should be voted on by all Canadians.
Excuse The Page while he gags!
Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty! This is just another example of Eastern voters using their majority to override the wishes of an Alberta vote, no matter what the outcome.
Honestly, have you ever heard such a stupid, brain-dead proposal? One laced with idiocy and smells like a fresh manure pile?
Let the Page settle down for a minute and tell you how he really feels! No more beating around the bush!
A man who dates a girl and breaks up with her is ruthless!
Groan!
Two words you rarely hear at the House of Commons or Alberta Legislature? right decision!
A parent went to visit his son at college and passed by Klein Hall.
“How nice!” said the father. “Ralph Klein was a great leader. Nice to see something named after him!”
“Actually,” said his son. “It’s named for Bruce Klein. No relation!”
“What did he do?” asked the father.
The son replied, “He wrote the cheque!”
An airline decided to offer a special deal. They decided to offer wives half fares if they accompanied their husbands on business trips.
After a few weeks, the airline decided to see how the deal was working. They sent letters to all the wives asking if they enjoyed the trip and the fee paid.
“What trip?” most of them replied!
A farmer from Texas goes to Australia for a vacation and visits an Aussie farmer who shows him his wheat field.
“Big deal!” says the Texan. “We have fields twice that big in Texas!”
The Aussie then shows the Texan his herd of cattle.
“We have longhorns that are twice as big as these cattle,” says the Texan.
On the other side of the fence a herd of kangaroos goes hopping by. The Texan has never heard of kangaroos.
“And what are those things?” he asks the Aussie.
“What?” says the Australian. “You never saw a grasshopper!”
An all-nighter means you did not have to get up to go to the bathroom!
Have a great week, everyone!
