Stoney Nation needs transparency and integrity, says writer
Dear Editor:
My name is Anita Diggins, and I spent the first 18 years of my life growing up in a non-nation community as a Métis person. I have spent the last 30 years “growing up” in the Stoney Nation Community.
I’m not afraid to tell you who I am because I feel I live my life with integrity.

Mom says thanks
Dear Editor:
I just want to express my family’s sincere thanks to the bylaw officers in Cochrane for their commitment to maintaining a safe community, and listening to the concerns of its residents.
