Seniors in Canada haveexperienced some of the mostnegative impacts of the COVID-19pandemic.

For many, staying safe at homehas meant added expenses.Deliveries come at a premium andsome groceries are costing more.Prescription dispensing fees haveincreased in many provinces.

The Government of Canadaresponded early. In April, more than4 million low- and middle-incomeseniors received a supplementaryGST Credit automatically in theirbank accounts.

But as the pandemic wore on,seniors were clear that whilewelcome, it wasn’t enough.

That’s why we’re providing morehelp this summer. A special one-time, tax-free payment for seniorswill be made on the week of July 6.

This payment will provide $2.5billion for 6.7 million seniors eligiblefor the Old Age Security, with extrasupport for the most vulnerable.

For a low-income couple on GIS,the April and July payments add upto over $1,500 in support to helpwith increased costs caused byCOVID-19.

To help prevent fraud and make iteasy to receive, the payment isautomatic. Seniors do not need toapply and they should not shareany personal or banking informationto receive it.

This financial supportcomplements other federal supportsfor seniors during the pandemic,such as support for charities andcommunity groups to provideessential services, like the deliveryof groceries, and communityprojects help to reduce socialisolation.

We continue to look at all theideas that are coming in on how wecould better help seniors.

During these unprecedentedtimes, we will always to be there forCanadian seniors.

Through the Alberta 2030: TransformingPost-Secondary Education initiative,government will work with a leading researchand consulting firm to search for practicalsolutions that will ensure the adult learningsystem is affordable, accessible and reflectiveof our economy's future needs.

“Today is the beginning of an exciting andambitious project to renew and transformpost-secondary education in Alberta. As wemove forward with Alberta’s economicrecovery, it is essential that we double downon efforts to build a highly skilled andcompetitive workforce, strengthen thecommercialization of research, reduceduplication and forge stronger relationshipsbetween employers and post-secondaryinstitutions. We must do everything possibleto ensure that when a student graduates froman Alberta post-secondary institution, they areequipped with the skills, knowledge andcompetencies they need to succeed in afuture economy. In short, we must begin totrain the workforce of tomorrow, today,” statesDemetrios Nicolaides, Minister of AdvancedEducation.

“This announcement marks one of manyimportant milestones for Alberta’s colleges,polytechnics, and universities. Together,Alberta’s post-secondary system offersenriching and diverse learning opportunitiesas well as cutting-edge research andinnovation, all of which strengthen theeconomic, social and cultural fabric of Alberta.In collaboration with this new partner, wehave an important opportunity to enhance therole of our higher education system for allAlbertans as we overcomechallenges and seize opportunitiesin building a vibrant and resilientfuture,” states Dr. Neil Fassina,chair, Council of Post-secondaryPresidents of Alberta.

the development of a modern post-secondary system for Albertans,"commented Emmanauel Barker, director,public relations and advocacy, AlbertaStudents Executive Council.

Alberta’s economy is facing manychallenges, and post-secondaryinstitutions must be adaptable andforward-thinking. The Alberta 2030initiative will renew the adult learningsystem’s focus on providing theeducation, skills and training theprovince needs to meet labour marketdemands and help Albertans get back towork.

Government states it will collaboratewith employers, industry, students, post-secondary institutions and otherstakeholders to:

Can you take too much of a good thing?For example, vitamin D is very popularright now and doses of 400 to 4000 IUdaily are taken by many Canadians. Butyou can take too much. There was a casein Canada where a man took 8000 to12000 IU daily over 30 months whichresulted in kidney damage. Moderation isthe key in everything... even when takingvitamins.A heart attack happens when the arteriesto the heart become blocked so that asection of the heart muscle can’t getenough oxygen. The blockage is causedby a fatty deposit (plaque) breaks off fromthe artery lining causing the blockage.When your heart can’t “breathe”, you getthe symptoms: crushing pain in chest,neck areas, nausea, sweating, fainting andlightheadedness and shortness of breath.If this is happening to you, call 911 rightaway.Pregnant woman who sleep on their sideshave a lower risk of a still birth than thosewho sleep on their backs. And it doesn’tseem to matter whether you are a left sideor right side sleeper. It’s better for thebaby.

Noah Burt (Left) and Simon Geanyaenjoy the trails around the MorinvilleFish and Game Association fish pondJune 10. “It’s awesome,” said Noah.“There’s lots of nature and exercisething-a-ma-bobs all over the place,”added Simon.

Local businesses have joined forces todonate 200 high-tech ventilators to AlbertaHealth Services, supporting life-savingtreatment for all Albertans.

Calgary advanced technology firm ExergySolutions designed and built theventilators. Suncor Energy providedfinancial support to make the donationpossible. A cross-industry team ofpartners from across the province workedtogether to ensure the success of theproject.

The ventilators, named Alberta E-Ventand nicknamed “Bertie,” were built in partthrough 3D printing technology. They areintended to provide short-term respiratorysupport, monitoring, and treatment foradult patients if a conventional ventilatoris unavailable.

Should the need arise, Alberta E-Ventwill allow hospitals to expand their patientcare capacity and reallocate conventionalventilators to patients with more complexneeds.

“Alberta is incredibly fortunate to haveprivate-sector firms like Exergy andSuncor step in to make sure its healthsystem is well supplied with criticalmedical technology. The creation of theAlberta E-Vent ventilator shows what’spossible when Albertans collaborate andfocus their expertise on a commongoal,” states Tyler Shandro,Minister of Health.

The 200 ventilators are approvedby Health Canada and areexpected to be donated this week.Exergy and Suncor are exploringthe possibility of expandingproduction to help fight theworldwide COVID-19 pandemic.

“This pandemic has reinforcedthat when we work together acrossgovernments and industries wecan accomplish much more thanwe can do when we work alone.The support we’ve provided to thisproject is another example of howwe’re working with partners in thefight against COVID-19,” statesMike MacSween, executive vice-president, Suncor Energy

“The Exergy team had thetechnology and agile engineeringto develop the ventilator quickly,

but we needed help, so we reached out andengaged with experts from other organizationsto get the design right. I am proud to work witha team that was able to execute a year-longproject in six weeks and to do so with passion

and tenacity. The Bertie is truly a ‘made-in-Alberta solution,” comments Ian Buchanan,vice-president technical services, ExergySolutions

Mary KosolofskyJuly 16, 1928 – June 5, 2020

It is with heavy hearts that we

announce the passing of Mary

Kosolofsky (Chipchura) on

June 5. She is survived by her

husband John of 69 years; her

children Marlene (Peter),

Gail and Curtis (Carol); her

grandchildren Darcy (Tonia), Nicole

(Matt), Shane, Megan (J.P),

Branden (Jessica), Byron; her great

grandchildren Trevor, Ashley, Talya, Caiden; Ari and

Bryce; and her sister Lil Dawson.

Mary was kind, generous, compassionate, and committed

to her family and community. She was a great cook and

everyone looked forward to a meal at her home. She

loved playing cards and games and was always a fierce

competitor. She touched the hearts of everyone who knew

her. She had a soft spot for all animals, especially her

dogs and cats on the farm.

Due to the current COVID-19 restrictions a

private funeral service will be held

at Darling Community Cemetary

on June 19.
