A man fell from the roof of a Slave Lake apartment building on Sunday, December 15 between 3:30 and 6:30 p.m.
The man was pronounced dead on the scene, says RCMP Sgt. Don Racette.

Ken Giblin, who owned Century 21 Realty in Slave Lake along with his wife Barb, died earlier this month at the age of 81.
Following a career in the RCMP, Giblin and his wife chose Slave Lake as the place they wanted to do business and started the Century 21 firm in the late 1980s or early 1990s.

It’s often the case – as Joni Mitchell said – that ‘you don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone.’ A lot of people were thinking along those lines after the sudden passing of Jeff Commins of Wagner on Nov. 8.

Will the Slave Lake Icedogs have – as rumoured – a rival team in High Prairie sometime soon? Here’s hoping, and the signs are certainly pointing that way.

George Charlebois of Wagner figures he’s the first person in western Canada to use drone technology to photograph cutblocks for forest products companies. It was new for them and new for him and far from certain he’d be able to make it fly.
