- Electric Vehicles Make Slow Headway in Rural Alberta
While electric vehicles or EVs are gaining some traction in larger cities (pun intended), the uptake in rural areas has been limited at best. Besides underlying philosophical and political leanings towards oil and gas-driven engines, many of us who live in northern Alberta have practical issues to consider as well, including cold-weather reliability and distances travelled, not to mention the availability of charging stations. Surveys have shown that less than 10% of Canadians considering purchasing a new vehicle are considering an electric vehicle. Among rural drivers, this percentage is certain to be dramatically smaller. Another survey by Deloitte (Globe and Mail, Jan 25, 2022) indicated that most Canadians would feel more comfortable with EV’s that had a minimal driving range of 600 kilometres, compared to the standard 300 to 500 kilometres that most affordable EVs offer right now. High Gears Touchless Wash at 9806-99 Ave While EV charging stations are limited in northern Alberta, most communities have at least one charging station option. In La La Biche, High Gears Touchless Wash at 9806-99 Ave has a charging station available to the public advertised as “free with $16 carwash. Check with High Gears for more details.

Conversations Lead to Successful Side-Gig Starting a new business is not always the result of a great deal of planning. Sometimes, everything just seems to fall into place. For Kayla Tkachuk, this was indeed the case. While on maternity leave from her job, she attended a brunch with a few friends. The conversation led to an invitation to participate in a Ribbon Skirt workshop at the Native Friendship Centre. At the workshop, she discussed other courses, particularly beading workshops available through the Native Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC). Taking inspiration from her Métis heritage and a few instructional videos and books, Kayla was on her way to developing the skills she needed to create a successful side-gig business named Continental Divide Beading Co. Themes From Nature Since September 2021, Kayla has created and sold jewelry online through her Facebook page and in-person at events like the recent Christmas Extravaganza held at Lac La Biche’s Bold Centre. To date, designs take their theme from nature, reflected through the names of her collections, including Snowy Owl and Great Plains. The Journey Continues Although the business is still in its infancy, Kayla hopes to expand her offerings to flat-stitch beadwork on items like moccasins and even dabble in the creation of hand-crafted soap. Needless to say, It will be interesting to see where her journey will lead. To learn more about the Continental Divide Beading Co or purchase Kayla’s most recent creations, visit Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/continentaldividebeadingco/ or call her direct at (780) 623-0460.
