Editor ’s Message
Many of you read about my son Ryan in February’s
Evergreen Edge. Some of you contacted me
personally to ask how he is doing, so I thought it best to let
you know he is doing very well indeed! The effects of the
Mycoplasma pneumonia were quite severe, but he continues
to grow stronger each day. We return to Alberta Children’s
Hospital this month for another ECG to make sure there was
no lasting damage to his heart. He will also have a repeat
ultrasound of his leg to check if the thrombus (a blood clot he
developed from the central line IV) is gone. If not, Ryan will
continue on another course of blood thinners, which will last
three more months, and then we go back again. In any case,
things are looking really good. He was lucky.

Burns and Scalds - Calgary EMS
Burns versus Scalds
• Causes of burns include skin contact with extremely hot
surfaces, or contact with caustics, radiation, or electricity.
• Scalds are burns that result from contact from hot liquid
or steam.
• Whatever the cause, the severity of a burn is classified
three ways:
1st degree: Affects only the top layers of skin (e.g. sun
burns).
2nd degree: Deeper and more painful than 1st degree
burns; blisters will develop.
3rd degree: The most severe; the deepest layers of the
skin are affected; may appear charred and leathery.
First Aid
• Cool burns immediately with copious amounts of cold
water. Damage to skin can continue to worsen if the burn
isn’t aggressively cooled.
• If the burn is severe, call 9-1-1. This includes
burns involving the face, neck, airway, genitals, hands or
feet.
• 3rd degree burns covering more than 5% of the body
(i.e.: 5 times the area of the patient’s hand) are also
considered severe.
• Never apply butter or creams to cool a burn. This may
worsen the burn by insulating more heat into the affected
area and increase the chance of infection.
Prevention
• Check the temperature of your hot water tank. Many
homes keep hot water temperatures as high as 60C /
140F. This temperature will scald a child in just seconds.
• Avoid picking up a child while holding any hot liquids.
• Use placemats instead of tablecloths. Tablecloths can be
pulled downward causing hot drinks or food to spill on a
child.
• Ensure hot items are well out of a child’s grasp. Turn pot
handles to the back of the stove and ensure cords from
kettles and slow cookers cannot be reached.
The best way to treat a burn is to prevent one in
the first place. Each year The City of Calgary Emergency
Medical Services responds to serious emergencies where
young children have sustained burns at home. The most
common cause is a child accidentally tipping or pulling hot
liquids, such as coffee, tea, or soup onto themselves
resulting in severe burns or scalds. It is important to note: a
child’s skin can burn more easily than an adult’s. Hot liquids
or steam that may only cause a mild burn on an adult may
cause a scald of much greater severity on a child.

Telework Calgary
In October 2006, I brought forward a Notice of Motion on
the Telework Initiative that was unanimously passed by
Council. It was to support a partnership between the City of
Calgary, the Haskayne School of Business, Calgary Chamber
of Commerce, Climate Change Central and other private
corporations to develop a telework strategy for Calgary.
In May 2007, the City of Calgary launched a 4 month pilot
project. Over the course of the telework pilot, 100
employees teleworked from home a total of 1,828 days.
Employees participating in the pilot program worked from
home an average of two days per week.
During the four month pilot, participants saved 6,656
commuter trips and reduced vehicle kilometers travelled by
80,487 kilometeres. In turn, the resulted in a reduction of
18,366 kilograms of greenhouse gas emissions as well as
1,286 kilograms of other particulate pollutants.
I am pleased to announce that on 2009 January 8, Canada’s
Transport Minister, John Baird, through the federal
Program,
government’s ecoMOBILITY Program awarded nearly
$1 million in grant funding, over three years to Calgary
Economic Development, to implement the regional
telework program. Of the nearly $3 million awarded to 14
municipalities across Canada, Calgary received, by far, the
largest grant. Calgary will continue to be a Canadian leader
in promoting innovative alternative programs such as
telework.

celebrated in this country, in Boston.

scholarship.
Look for our Easter
Far from being a saint, until he was 16, he considered himself
a pagan. At that age, he was sold into slavery by a group of Colouring Contest

became closer to God.
in the April issue!
He escaped from slavery after six years and went to Gaul
where he studied in the monastery under St. Germain,
bishop of Auxerre for a period of twelve years. During his
training he became aware that his calling was to convert the
pagans to Christianity.
His wishes were to return to Ireland, to convert the native
pagans to Christianity. But his superiors instead appointed St.
Palladius. But two years later, Palladius transferred to
Scotland. Patrick, having adopted that Christian name earlier,
was then appointed as second bishop to Ireland.
Patrick was quite successful at winning converts. And this fact
upset the Celtic Druids. Patrick was arrested several times,
but escaped each time. He traveled throughout Ireland,
establishing monasteries across the country. He also set up
schools and churches which would aid him in his conversion
of the Irish country to Christianity.
His mission in Ireland lasted for thirty years. After that time,
Patrick retired to County Down. He died on March 17 in AD
461. That day has been commemorated as St. Patrick’s Day
ever since.
Much Irish folklore surrounds St. Patrick’s Day. Not much of
it is actually substantiated.
Some of this lore includes the belief that Patrick raised
people from the dead. He also is said to have given a sermon
from a hilltop that drove all the snakes from Ireland. Of
course, no snakes were ever native to Ireland, and some
people think this is a metaphor for the conversion of the
pagans. Though originally a Catholic holy day, St. Patrick’s Day
has evolved into more of a secular holiday.
One traditional icon of the day is the shamrock. And this
stems from a more bona fide Irish tale that tells how Patrick
used the three-leafed shamrock to explain the Trinity. He
used it in his sermons to represent how the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Spirit could all exist as separate elements of the
