Home Care In Edgemont, AB

A lot of good news to report on this month! Naturally, we are all thrilled to see some weather that is more normal for this time of year. It certainly was an improvement over last year when the first day of planting of annuals in the community required Foothills staff to wear toques whereas subsequent planting days saw soaring temperatures. Hopefully the weather this year will give our annuals the right environment to recover from the shock of being transplanted! At this point, many planters have been populated and planting of the flowerbeds is in full swing! Sadly, some people have already helped themselves to flowers from the planters and we truly rely on the help of Edgemont residents to prevent pilferage of the flowers that are for the entire community to look at and enjoy. Please take pictures of people who are assuming that they can dig up our community flowers. We do need your help and are asking you to email [email protected] should you see anyone removing flowers. It’s time to stop people from stealing our plants!

Planting of our annuals was the first good news item! In addition, the EDG119 flowerbed on the corner of Edgebrook Boulevard and Edgeridge View was reshaped in May and is now ready for a pop of colour in the form of annual flowers!

The next bit of news is what communities like ours are all about: a group of volunteers from Tom Baines Junior High School will help weed the natural hillside area near the Edgemont Community Association at the end of June. This is the area that we are planning to replant in the fall with native plants and grasses in collaboration with the City of Calgary. Representatives of the City of Calgary will be present to supervise and guide the student volunteer event and they will be providing tools, gloves, and so on. We are very grateful for the help of the students and the City of Calgary. Should you be able to help keep this area weed free until we are ready to plant in the fall, please contact our ELM coordinator, Shari Pitka at [email protected].

Any concerns or questions regarding ELM, please contact us using the above email address and we will be very happy to respond to your concerns.

Equitable access to menstrual products and education about reproductive health is an essential part of health care.

Yet, period poverty — the lack of access to menstrual products — continues to enforce gender barriers in our province.

Financial limitations and patriarchal social norms mean that many people who menstruate do not have access to affordable products, waste management, or essential education. And the culture of shame surrounding menstruation is also a significant barrier preventing women and young girls from exercising their sexual and reproductive rights.

Article content

Recent statistics related to period poverty are disheartening. A 2023 survey by the Alberta Women’s Health Foundation (AWHF) found that cultural taboos, including those surrounding menstruation, have direct and harmful effects on a woman’s ability to access health care.

The survey also identified painful periods as a key challenge affecting their lives and as girls grow into women, many will need to sacrifice income or risk job loss for taking unpaid, informal menstrual leave. Eighty-six per cent of women who experience painful periods found that menstrual pain directly affected their work life.

There has been some movement in recent years to address period poverty, with the cities of Edmonton and Calgary providing free menstrual products in city buildings, beginning in 2021. Calgary expanded this program in 2023 to include all library facilities. And the Edmonton Catholic School Division announced in 2022 that it would provide free menstrual products available in all washrooms.

Although these are great steps forward, we are a long way from realizing menstrual equity in Alberta, especially in smaller cities and rural communities.

We need to leverage this momentum towards menstrual equity and establish proactive, gender-transformative policies at the provincial level to set up women and girls for success.

The provincial government must step up and, at the very least, provide free period products in all provincial workplaces and provincial buildings.

Alberta is in the midst of the worst affordability crisis in memory. The UCP has the ability to ensure Albertans’ most basic needs, like access to menstrual products, are being met. However, the UCP has failed to act, leaving this task up to community lead initiatives.

The success of the recent Period Poverty Drive, organized by the Calgary-Edgemont constituency office, shows how generous our community is and resulted in making the Period Poverty Drive a permanent, ongoing endeavour. Supplies can be dropped off at the Calgary-Edgemont constituency office at 202, 1829 Ranchlands Boulevard, NW.

Access to period products is a basic necessity and should not be considered a luxury. International Women’s Day is an opportunity to ask ourselves what kind of world we want to create for women and girls.

Article content

It is not enough to celebrate how far gender equity has come. We must continue to advocate for sexual and reproductive justice for all Albertans. Eliminating the stigmas around menstruation and ensuring that everyone has equitable access to menstrual products will ensure a more equitable future for the menstruating population of Alberta.

EDMONTON, AB, June 9, 2023 /CNW/ - Today, the Honourable Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Housing and Diversity and Inclusion and the Honourable Randy Boissonnault, Minister of Tourism and Associate Minister of Finance and Member of Parliament for Edmonton Centre, alongside Amarjeet Sohi, Mayor of Edmonton, and David Mitton, President of Leston Holdings, announced a federal investment of nearly $94 million. This investment, made through the National Housing Co-Investment Fund (NHCF), will build more than 500 homes in southwest Edmonton, nearly 300 of which are affordable.

In 2022, the Government of Canada announced an investment of $24 million to build 102 affordable homes, already fully occupied, at Heritage Flats Phase One, which opened last fall. The City of Edmonton provided a capital grant of $5.6 million to Phase One. As part of Phase Two funding being announced today, the Government of Canada is investing over $14 million to build an additional 169 homes. This brings the total federal investment in Heritage Flats to more than $38 million to build 271 homes. The second phase of Heritage Flats will be located at 11803-30 Avenue SW, adjacent to Phase One, and is still in construction. These homes are primarily intended for Enoch Cree Nation members, as well as women and their children.

Additionally, the federal government is announcing an investment of nearly $80 million to build over 330 homes, with more than half of them being affordable, at Edgemont Flats. The Edgemont Flats project, located at 5315 Edgemont Blvd NW, will include accessible units for individuals with disabilities, as well as seniors, single parents and new immigrants.

In total, these multifamily buildings will create 605 homes throughout southwest Edmonton, nearly 400 of which are affordable. All three buildings are located close to Enoch Cree Nation and have access to nearby amenities and residents will have access to abundant employment options.

Funding for these projects include:

Quotes:

"Every Canadian deserves a safe and affordable place to call home. Through the National Housing Co-Investment Fund, the Government of Canada is investing in affordable, high quality and energy-efficient homes, increasing access to housing for individuals and families in need. The two phases of Heritage Flats and the Edgemont apartments will add hundreds of affordable homes to this community, benefitting Enoch Cree Nation members, seniors, new immigrants and people with disabilities. This is the National Housing Strategy at work." – The Honourable Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Housing and Diversity and Inclusion

"Safe and affordable housing is key to healthy and thriving communities. Today's announcement marks a significant step in tackling the housing crisis; we will once again be providing more affordable housing options for those who need it most right here in Edmonton. These kinds of investments like Heritage Flats and Edgemont Apartments, transform our communities and the lives of people by providing housing where it's needed most. Soon, Enoch Cree Nation members including women and their children, and individuals with disabilities will have access to these safe and secure homes." – The Honourable Randy Boissonnault, Minister of Tourism and Associate Minister of Finance and Member of Parliament for Edmonton Centre

"Roughly 1 in 4 renters in Edmonton pay more than they afford on housing, but that number is 1 in 3 for Indigenous peoples. That's why Council has earmarked $20 million through 2026 for Indigenous-owned, sustainable affordable housing. These projects are a perfect example of how affordable housing can add value: private, federal and municipal investment is coming together to ensure members of Enoch Cree Nation can live close to amenities, family and their community." – Amarjeet Sohi, Mayor of Edmonton

"Quality, safe and affordable housing is an essential need for healthy living. We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of Heritage Flats and plans to develop Heritage Phase two and Edgemont Flats. All together these projects will add 605 homes to the rental market. With the support of the public sector, we look forward to creating affordable housing that will have a positive impact on our communities and their residents."– David Mitton, President, Leston Holdings (1980) Ltd.
