TransAlta Utilities 2nd quarter results obifeeeffy Nesseth Mr. Sverre Nesseth passed away at the Mountain View Health Care Centre. Didsbury. TransAlta Utilities Corporation's electric revenues for the six months ending June 30, 1992. (after deducting the Alberta Electric Energy Marketing Agency charge and small power producers' charges) were 534.8 million, compared to 500.1 million for the first six months of 1991. Electric energy sales were 12,572 million -on Auguat 29. 1902 at the age of 92 years. He is survived by one nephew Jim and Eileen Ciraves of Calgary, six grand nephews, four grand nieces, and a host of great grand nieces and nephews. Memorial services were held on Monday.

Qyjjjec yijl not have less than 25 per cent of the population of* Canada within the foreseeable future - at least not within the next 40 yearsl. That has been part of the give and take. We have never lid will never be able deferred kilowatt-hours for the first six months of 1992, an increase of 4.7 per cent when compared to the same period in 1991 and up 5.2 per cent over the last 12 months. The increased energy sales resulted primarily from higher spot market sales to Alberta's gas processing and forest products sectors. Slow growth occurred in the wholesale and commercial sectors, reflecting economic conditions in .Alberta. Ken McCready, TransAlta's president and chief executive officer, reported in the company's second quarter interim report to shareholders that earnings per share from continuing operations were 0.63 for the first six months of 1992, compared to 0.56 for the same period in 1991, as restated. The increased earnings reflect improvements in TransAlta's non-utility operations and increased energy sales. The earnings for the six months ended June 30, 1991, have been restated to include revenues, pertaining to that period, which were collected through interim rates in the latter months of 1991. Considering the seasonal nature of th* utility operations,, the actual results tb June 30 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Earnings for the first six months of 1990 and 1989 were 0.54 and 0.60 respectively. TransAlta has on noted the important contributions TransAlta's customers made to the Alberta Electric Energy Marketing Agency (EEMA) Review Panel hearings that took place in May and June. There was an overwhelming response to TransAlta's letter to direct retail customers inviting input on the EEMA process. Over 72,000 replies were received, virtually all calling for change, he added. These responses formed part of TransAlta submission to the EEMA Review PaneL TransAlta's industrial customers also recommended substantial changes in the EEMA process. They stressed the importance of incentives for improved utility productivity and strengthened accountability of each electric utility to its own customers. These and other submissions are currently under con sideration by the Review Panel, which is expected to report to the Alberta government by the end of the summer. TransAlta Utilities Corporation, the largest investor-owned electric utility in Canada, supplies more than two- thirds of Alberta's electric energy requirements and is developing non- regulated electrical and thermal energy projects in Canada. Roy Brassard MLA Olds-Didsbury Constituency Finally It had indeed been a long time coming but agreement has now been reached on a constitutional package which will have a tremendous impact on the future of our country - and it contains a Triple E Senate, something that many said could never happen, almost exclusively as a result:of our Premier Don Getty and our Deputy Premier Jim Horsman. The Triple E Clause has received much debate but let me outline the details. It will be equal - six seats per province and one each per territory, and that equality is now entrenched in the Canada Clause. It must be elected, although some provin ces are hedging as to where those nominations will originate, such as Quebec who say the legislators will elect the senators. United States went through the same charade and it only lasted one election. The people's representative will have far too much credibility for other provinces to be denied such representation. There will be some flexibility within provinces to address gender, culture, etc. and these details will likely be debated prior to any referendum on the package. And, it will be effective Western Canada will now hold 40 per cent of the Senate seats. Fully 80 per cent of the Senate seats will be outside Ontario and Quebec. They will be able to defeat taxation legislation on natural resources. A majority of senators can veto major federal appointments. A majority of senators can force a joint sitting of the House of Commons and Senate to draw attention to matters of state concern. The Senate can initiate legislation, such as Young Offenders Act. and if passed, would proceed to the House of Commons for ratification. There will be a change in the structure of the House of Commons and Quebec will have a guarantee of 25 per cent of those seats (although, demographers) win any vote in the House of Commons. Representation by population dictates that, but now we can win in the Senate. Up until now we have had neither , I will talk about other changes to the Constitution such as Native Self-Govemment in my next.column. In the meantime, if you need to contact me, or just want to talk, please call our constituency office at 556-3132. or my Edmonton office at 422- 0141 (collect). until later in 1991 of revenue received to June 30 pertaining to its investment in the second unit of the Sheerness generating plant. This revenue will be recorded when the unit is added to TransAlta's rate base. A dividend of 0,245 per share on common shares was declared payable October 1. 1992, to shareholders of record at close of business on September 1. 1992. In the report to shareholders. McCreadv also Berton warns cattlemen about animal rights movement Cattle producers are the next major target of the animal rights movement after their successful campaign against the fur industry. So says Pierre Berton, well-known Canadian author and popular historian, who spoke at the recent Canadian Cattlemen's Association national convention. Berton outlined the extremes of the animal rights movement by focusing on the fur industry and medical research. He told his audience the movement is against anyone who deals with animals from meat producers and trappers, to hospital and university researchers. Citing one group's meat stinks campaign. Ber- ton warned meat producers they are the next target of the well- organized and well- financed movement. First, they'd like to get rid of beef, then it will be chicken, and then eggs and milk. They come from animals, too. he said. He also said beef producers needed to be squeaky clean in how they treat their livestock, and be on the forefront of treating animals humanely. Berton also advocated a strong coalition with enough money and power to counteract animal rights extremists. I said this to the dairy people, and I said this to the fur people, he said of past speeches on the subject. And they said, 'Yes, this is a great idea. We're all going to get together.' But they haven't. Meanwhile this poison is being spread. Innisfail Auction Market Innisfail Auction Market report for Wednesday, August 26, 1992 - 1,090 head of cattle.
