Fighter jet project spurs contractor interest at Cold Lake recruitment event
by the Cold Lake Regional Chamber of Commerce. The event, aimed at connecting local and regional businesses with upcoming work tied to the F-35 fighter jet program at 4 Wing Cold Lake, exceeded expectations, according to Cold Lake Chamber Executive Director Sherri Buckle. 'We were expecting about 150 people, and I just actually did the count this morning and we had 224 attendees,' said Buckle. Held in collaboration with project partners and industry experts, the event offered presentations that covered vital details on security clearances, approval processes, and the types of work required to support the major construction and retrofitting activities underway at the base. 'Cold Lake was chosen because of the military base, and that is primarily what we were gearing towards,' Buckle explained. 'The event yesterday was about educating contractors on the processes, what actually needs to be done in order to be approved to do work on 4 Wing.' The afternoon was dedicated to networking, with lineups forming at booths as attendees sought one-on-one conversations with project representatives. 'There is something for everyone whether you sell paper or you're an earth mover,' Buckle said. 'Anything that 4 Wing would contract out or buy, that's who should be in the room.' Buckle also underlined the importance of keeping the work regional to bolster local employment and stimulate the economy. 'If we can keep the work local, that ultimately allows for greater employment opportunities for our locals,' she said. 'This event was a true regional event.' Contractors who missed the session are encouraged to reach out to either the Cold Lake or Bonnyville Chamber of Commerce for follow-up information and resources. The Future Fighter Capability Project is a long-term federal initiative to replace Canada's aging fleet of CF-18s with 88 advanced F-35 fighter jets, requiring significant infrastructure upgrades and support services at bases like 4 Wing Cold Lake, according to the Defence Construction of Canada website.

Won't be in a rush to order online from New Look again."

‘Bat' photo not worth batting an eye over
Bat, leaves, rubbish bag or black undies? PHOTO: SUPPLIED A grainy photo taken in a Dunedin park which sent social media batty was probably just a clump of leaves. Biosecurity New Zealand and the Department of Conservation (Doc) said they were investigating a possible sighting of a native Australian bat in a Dunedin park after a grainy photograph, first published on social media platform Reddit, got a lot of attention online. However, yesterday Biosecurity New Zealand animal health incursion investigations team manager Kelly Buckle said the investigation had concluded and no evidence of exotic bats was found. Staff conducted a search of the park where the suspected bats were observed, Ms Buckle said. No non-native bats were found, neither was any evidence of the presence of exotic bats. Further, the ''poor resolution of the image'' supplied to Biosecurity New Zealand meant bat experts could not identify any visible physical characteristics typical of bats. ''There isn't an obvious pathway for flying foxes to accidentally arrive and survive in Dunedin. ''On balance and given the distance from which the suspected bats were observed, it is possible that the bat-like objects were in fact leaf clusters that resemble the shape of flying foxes.'' When the Otago Daily Times reported yesterday that Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and Doc were investigating the possible sighting, readers also questioned whether the image was indeed a bat. ''Someone has a good imagination,'' one reader said. ''Wonderful artistic use of a black plastic rubbish bag,'' another said. ''Dried-up leaf - it is autumn,'' yet another said. ''Or a pair of black undies, everyone's gone batty.'' Previously, MPI said there had only ever been two exotic bat finds within New Zealand's borders, both were little red flying foxes. One was found dead in 1926 southeast of Hamilton and another in Marlborough in 2024. — APL
