Who is Nancy Dodds?
Why do you want to be mayor?
I believe Drayton Valley residents want and need a mayor that will lead the community with openness, transparency, and good governance. Who is fully committed to put in the hard work and has the community in mind.
I love this community, the spirit of hope, innovation and drive resonates within me. I want to give back to my home, ensure everyone’s voices are heard and create a safe, thriving community for years to come.
I have the experience, education and knowledge to continue pushing forward. I know how to build consensus through hard work and achieve success. I am so inspired and excited to be the voice and the action to create a community that works for all of us and is stronger together..
What do you like best about Drayton Valley?
Drayton Valley is a wonderful community full of spirited, strong residents, and endless opportunities. I love the work hard, play hard mindset, the innovation and creativity that runs deep in our roots. When crisis hits, we pull together.
What’s your favourite TV show?
Not a TV show kind of person, I’m more of a binge watcher when I get the chance. Love a good Apple or Netflix series…too many to pick a favourite.
Who was your childhood hero?
I have three : Wonder woman – I have a scar on my head that connects us. Bob Geldof – As a child I was inspired by the movement he started and wanted to make a difference. It inspired me to make a difference in the world and fight for things I believe in. My Mom – One of the hardest working women I know and she would drop everything if I needed her.
What are your hobbies/interests?
Time with family, I love the seasons and getting outdoors; skiing, snowboarding, skating, nature, meditation, qigong, chess, designing and a good book!
What’s your proudest accomplishment?
University graduate! I started my post-secondary studies fresh out of high school with a love for architecture and drafting, however I did not graduate.
I overcame the fear, and decided to go back to school while I owned a business (partnership), family and having two young daughters. I decided instead of building houses I would build cities, and out of this came my education and passion for Land Use Planning and Development.
What have you been hearing from people during the campaign?
They are proud of the community that they live in and are generally happy. They’re happy to see me and thank me for coming out. Some of the areas of concern are pot holes, homelessness, rural crime and the need for local enforcement.
How would your friends describe you?
Organized, dependable, hard working and creative.
What’s something about you people don’t know?
I have a yellow belt in Tae Kwon do. I know what you’re thinking, “ it’s not a black belt.” But this is where the seeds of knowledge have really been planted and I sure do love sparring.
Where would you like to see Drayton Valley in four years?
We seem to have hit a few bumps in the road over the last few years, but our journey is changing. The next four years are going to be exciting for Drayton Valley. We will build an asset management plan that prioritizes our projects and looks at the best possible investment decisions for our infrastructure assets. Our local College is buzzing with students, creating entrepreneurial opportunities and transitioning students into job placements. Our economy is thriving and moving forward, creating opportunities for everyone. A healthy, safe vibrant community with endless opportunities has made its way back into our community. The spirit is high and we are stronger together.
Opportunity Home’s first Spring Shaker was a success, says executive director Danna Cropley.
“The event sold out within the first few weeks,” says Cropley. “Beyond that, the event went absolutely amazingly.”
The evening had a dance, a catered dinner, and silent auction items to help raise funds for the rehabilitation centre. Cropley says it wouldn’t have been possible without the volunteers who helped put the event together. About 230 people attended.
“Jen Winter, Janice Kupsch, and their crew organized the event. The room was full of energy and community; it was so great,” says Cropley.
One of the reasons for the event, along with raising funds to help run the facility, was to educate the public about what the facility does and how it helps those in need. Opportunity Home opened its doors in February 2023, and has seen numerous people complete the 90-day program during its three years of operation.
Earlier in the week, Cropley also spoke to town council with the same goal in mind.
“Because the council is fairly new… we just wanted to update them on Opportunity Home’s mission, vision, and values, [as well] as the value our project brings, not only to the municipality but also our provincial community and out to our country.”
Cropley says the facility has offered beds to people from across the province, British Columbia, and some from the United States. She says she wanted council to see the reach that they have now and how they are supporting Recovery Alberta’s response to the current opioid crisis.
In her presentation to council, Cropley touched on the community, social, and economic value the centre brought to the community. This included the volunteer work the clients provided, homelessness and poverty prevention, as well as reducing taxpayer costs for emergency, health, and justice services.
She says community investment is a crucial part of the success of the centre, not in terms of dollars, but in terms of interest from the community, volunteers, and feedback.
“I just really wanted to make sure that town council was aware of who we are and what we do,” says Cropley.
Opportunity Home is hosting another event on June 19 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. that is open to the public: a memorial tree planting ceremony, along with a barbecue and tour of the facility. Cropley says they will also have different resources and services at the event for people to connect with if needed.
She says the tree-planting ceremony will be in honour of some community members who have recently passed away. Members of the public are welcome to donate to plant a tree in memory of someone they have lost.
It seems that those pushing for Alberta independence have enough signatures to force a referendum on the issue. That put me in mind of something I wrote a few years ago that I think still holds water.
If Alberta’s going to ditch the rest of Canada we need to set a few rules. This is going to take a while, so it’s best to start talking about it now so we know where we stand if and when it comes to a vote.
First we have to figure out what an Albertan actually is.
There used to be a guy who lived down the street from me who had a bumper sticker that said, “Canadian by birth, Albertan by the grace of God.” It always struck me as a little odd. That was partly because it was on the rear bumper of the first Toyota Prius I’d ever seen with a gun rack. But it’s also because I’ve lived in this province for well over three decades, and I’ve never been able to figure out what makes an Albertan an Albertan.
OK, so an Albertan is someone who comes from Alberta. That’s according to no less a source than the Oxford Canadian Dictionary so I’m not about to start arguing. But the results of the most recent federal census suggest that’s a pretty broad group. If the number and variety of languages spoken in this province is any kind of a guide, Albertans come from all over the place, both within Canada and from every corner of the globe.
That’s true of other places too of course. Places like London and New York are breathtaking in their diversity. What makes Alberta different is that everything here is so new. We’ve been a province for not much more than a century and have evolved so rapidly in such a short time, with so many waves of immigration from so many parts of the world that it sometimes feels as if we’ve never developed a separate sense of ourselves. At least not in the way you’d find among the societies of Africa, Asia or Europe, or even in Newfoundland, Nova Scotia or Quebec.
So what do we have that binds such a broad group together and sets us apart from the rest of the country? There’s the Flames and the Oilers I suppose. And beef. We like beef and are justifiably proud of both the quality and quantity this province produces. I think it’s also fair to say that we work hard. Not me, obviously, but most of the rest of you. And perhaps most importantly right now, there’s a sense of frustration that we always end up with a federal government that most of us didn’t vote for. But even at the last election, when dislike of Ottawa was probably at its peak, more than a third of us voted either Liberal or NDP and a significant number of us didn’t vote at all. So things are not as black and white as they may appear.
Anyway, as far as things that set us apart from the folks in Toronto or Tuktoyaktuk, that’s about it. Don’t get me wrong. I love this province and I love the people who live here (most of you anyway) but it doesn’t feel like we’ve got much to build a country on. Albertans are good people and we have a lot to offer the world. But at the same time we’re an odd and interesting mixture that doesn’t seem quite sure of its own identity. Sort of like a Prius with a gun rack.
The Eleanor Pickup Arts Centre will be hosting the Yellowhead Regional One-Act Plays Festival on April 10 and 11 this year.
Ashley Luckwell, the chair of the board for River Valley Players, says the regional festival will have five performances this year. Cast and crew from Leduc, St. Albert, Devon, Beaumont, and Drayton Valley will be participating in the event.
“There are five different groups from the Yellowhead Region that are coming,” she says.
Luckwell says the event is being put on by the Alberta Drama Festival Association (AFDA). This festival is one of several that are occurring across the province, with the winners from each heading on to the provincial festival in Leduc in May this year.
“We’re really excited to have it here,” says Luckwell. “It’s great to show off the EPAC; it’s great to have them come into our community.”
The festival will take place over two days, with each of the plays lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to about 45 minutes. RVP members Leah Sanderson, Sarah Chapman, Katherine De Varennes, and Jan Wright will be performing their play Overtones on Friday night.
Luckwell says the play is one she directed and was written by Alice Gerstenberg in the early 1900s. It was first performed in 1915 at the Bandox Theatre in New York.
The play highlights the difference between what people say and what they are actually thinking. Two of the actors will be playing characters having a conversation, and two younger actors will be playing a younger version of themselves giving voice to the first two character’s inner thoughts.
The other plays will be Steven Goes to Japan to Run a Marathon, Crystal Blue Persuasion, The Crimson Cab Ladies Hit the Beach, and Don’t Mention Hollywood.
Luckwell says there has been lots of support from local businesses for this event, with some giving discounts on food and others sponsoring the festival as well.
“It’s been really great,” she says.
Tickets for the event will be for sale at the doors for $15. Luckwell says cash is preferred as it is not the EPAC that will be taking the funds, but rather volunteers for the AFDA.

Doomscrolling is a terrible habit for sure, and it’s one that I’m guilty of from time to time. It mostly depends on my mood, energy levels, and whether I have to sit and wait for an extended period of time.
The videos that have captured my imagination the last little while are the ones where content creators from other countries react to all things Canadian. That means everything from trying ketchup chips to seeing some of the worst ice storms the Maritimes have experienced.
Some of my favourites are the ones about wildlife. It’s entertaining to listen to the narrator speak about how big a moose is for fifteen seconds while they show a five-second clip of a moose, then five of an elk, and five more seconds of several white tail deer bounding into the distance. No one will ever know which one is the moose.
Another favourite of mine is videos of the Cobra Chicken, or for those of you who don’t speak to teenagers on a regular basis, the Canadian Goose.
The moniker Cobra Chicken is a little odd, but I guess it’s because they’re a big bird with long necks. Thus parts of them look like cobras and the rest looks like chickens.
In any case, anyone who has ever been near a goose in the spring knows they aren’t birds to be messed with. These birds can weigh up to 12 pounds and can reach speeds of 80 km/h on a normal day. With tailwinds, they can reach speeds of 112 km/h or higher.
Last April, a group of college students in Waterloo, Ontario, had to get creative with entering and exiting their house when a pair of geese decided their front yard was the best place for their nest. For several weeks they had to be very careful about when and how they entered their house because they could be attacked.
Of course, calls to any groups who could help with the situation were no help. The Canadian Goose is a protected species, so people aren’t allowed to touch them or their nests, cause injury, or kill the birds.
While the videos are always good for a laugh, people can get seriously injured. Many of the injuries happen as people try to run away from the birds, but a downstroke from a goose can hit like a fist and leave you with some nasty injuries.
I’m saying all of this because the season of the cobra chicken is coming soon. We do have some geese that feel this area is a good place to bring up their goslings. It’s a good time to tell kids that geese shouldn’t be messed with and to start paying attention when we’re walking near any ponds.
I would hate to be the main character in one of the YouTube videos people come across while doomscrolling. I feel like that would be far less entertaining for me, though I’m sure it would give others a good laugh.
Plans to build a replacement for Drayton Valley’s St. Anthony School took a step forward last week.
St. Thomas Aquinas Roman Catholic School Division (STAR Catholic) received planning funding from the Government of Alberta to support the future replacement of the school.
The Province will pay $50,000 in value-scoping funding. The school division says the funding will support early planning to ensure readiness for a potential new school build. That includes conducting an initial investigation to confirm project readiness, identify key priorities, and ensure essential planning components are in place.
“This is very encouraging news for our division and for the St. Anthony School community,” said STAR Catholic board chair Henry Effon. “This funding reflects the board’s continued commitment to advocating for our students and allows us to take an important step forward in preparing for a much-needed new school.”
The replacement of St. Anthony School is identified as the number one priority in the STAR Catholic capital plan. Superintendent Laurie Cardinal said the division was grateful for the support received from the province.
“This further strengthens the step in supporting the high-quality learning experience students in Drayton Valley already enjoy,” she said.
The current school dates back to the 1960s and has an enrolment of about 430. The building last had a major renovation in the 1990s.
Who is Corey Peebles?
Why do you want to be mayor?
Throughout my life, I’ve been a guy that when things get tough, I step up. I love Drayton Valley and I feel that I have the skills to work closely with the community to take us to the next level.
What do you like best about Drayton Valley?
Besides our amazing choices in restaurants? It’s the people! Drayton Valley is full of Friendly, encouraging, approachable and entrepreneurial people.
What’s your favourite TV show?
Right now, I would have to go with Ted Lasso. A football coach moves to the UK to be a Soccer coach. New Culture, knows nothing about the sport, but his passion for people and building teams makes all the difference (don’t want to spoil it for you with any more details)
Who was your childhood hero?
My Uncle Kevin. He was a bodybuilder, didn’t drink coffee and was huge! Kids in the school yard would say “my dad can beat up your dad” and I would say “my uncle can beat up all your dads”
What are your hobbies/interests?
I love anything fun with a group of people, working out, spending time with my wife and kids and lately…disc golf! Surprisingly fun once you stop losing the discs in the bushes
What’s your proudest accomplishment?
I’m really glad you didn’t ask me this in person as I feel like the long pause to reflect on this would be quite awkward for you. I would say being a dad. There is something about actively watching the legacy you are trying to build into your kids that is incredibly rewarding. Even with the mayoral race. Win or lose, my boys will see that I did my best and that’s all I ask of them.
What have you been hearing from people during the campaign?
Fix the Roads!
How would your friends describe you?
Energetic, visionary and funny (I’m assuming they say the last one…because I think I’m funny)
What’s something about you people don’t know?
I can’t skate! I love hockey, but never learned how to stop on skates. I think there should be a midnight CanSkate course for people like me that can learn without fear of being seen.
Where would you like to see Drayton Valley in four years?
Unified in community spirit
In agreement for our plans for economic growth (and utilizing a redeveloped program for job creation)
Having clear long range plans for our infrastructure needs
Great working relationship with the County and the Province
Having practical solutions for addressing homelessness and poverty
Seeing our region full of tourism opportunities!
