Students
voyage
to
Alberta
By Lisa Boonstoppel-Pot
As part of Canada's 125 celebra
tions, two local highschool students
got a free airfare ticket to Alberta.
Christy Scott, 16, and Brian Van
Steelandt, 17, both of RR 1, Blyth
got a free ticket by joining the
Voyageurs exchange program
sponsored by the federal govern
ment to celebrate Canada's anniver
sary.
The pair, along with seven other
Central Huron Secondary students,
returned two weeks ago from Fort
McMurray, A’berta and both say
they had lots of fun.
"Fort McMurray was really nice.
It was kind of secluded in the mid
dle of nowhere," says Miss Scott.
While there, she and her fellow
exchangers went, to the West
Edmonton Mall, a whale exhibit,
the parliament buildings, an Indian
Reserve and the tar sands.
"The Indian Reserve was really
interesting," says Miss Scott.
Mr. Van Steelandt, on other other
hand, found West Edmonton Mall
the most interesting.
"It's so big," he exclaimed.
He was amazed by the temper -
ture difference between Ontario
and Alberta.
'It's definitely colder," he says.
While they were there, tempera
tures dipped to minus 14 and they
had four inches of snow.
Miss Scott found the province
looked kind of "Christmasy"
because of all the pine trees.
The students were accompanied
by teacher James Barnes of Brus
sels who said Voyageurs is an
exchange designed "to foster cross
Canada understanding."
The Albertan counter-parts have
already been to Ontario and were
taken to Toronto to see the CN
Tower among other sites.
