Ms Renaud: Bill 20 would like to ban the use of electronic vote tabulators. Now, I would expect that if the government is intent on making a significant change about how elections are determined or how winners and losers are determined, they would actually put forward some evidence or some proof or something to let us know or to let all Albertans know why they’re doing this, not simply because maybe a little faction of their supporters – I don’t know – maybe watch too much Fox News and think that vote tabulators are the problem.

Happy Feast Day

St. Albert the Great

Bishop and Doctor of the Church

1206-1280

Feast day: November 15

Patronage: Scientists and Philosophers

Saint Albert heralded from a wealthy and powerful German family. In 1223, he was ordained a Dominican Friar. He was a man of great intellect, teaching and writing about science, philosophy, and theology, to name a few, at the University of Paris and Cologne. One of his famous students was St. Thomas Aquinas. They both probed how faith, reason, and science could coexist. He worked to unite the East and West at the Council of Lyons. He suffered a slow slide into dementia till he died in 1280.

Mr. Nixon: Well, I look forward to seeing the hon. member in estimates so I can teach her how to read a budget. We are investing in Budget 2024 $1.65 billion, the highest amount for AISH ever invested, continue to make sure that we go forward with a concrete plan to be able to help those who are under our AISH programs.

Underneath this Premier’s leadership I’m proud to report to the House through you, Mr. Speaker, that we have the highest AISH payments in the country. That’s underneath the Conservative government. And I’ll apologize on behalf of the NDP that they never got it done. [interjections]

The Speaker: Order.

Ms Renaud: That is so much baloney.

Beringer Vineyards, St. Helena (No. 2)

The estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. The property includes 12 buildings, sites, or structures, 10 of which are contributing. Rhine House is the most prominent, built from 1883 to 1884 and designed by Albert Schroepfer. The house has elaborate interiors, and was used to entertain visitors of the property. The house was built on the site of the Hudson House (built c. 1848–52), which was moved nearby in order in 1883 to build the larger and grander Rhine House. It has features of the Queen Anne and Chateauesque architectural styles, with attributes from its architect's own German heritage.

The Beringer family sold the Beringer name and winery to Nestlé in 1971, which in 1996 subsequently sold the enterprise to a group led by Texas Pacific Group; the company went public the next year. From 2000 to 2011 the winery was owned by Foster's Group. As of 2011, it is owned by Treasury Wine Estates.
