Handlebars Dynamic parameters

This must be a real novice question but I've look at all the top answers on StackOverflow and I just don't see my answer. Sorry if it was already answered.

I'm simply doing a loop over multiple categories. For some reason the parameters of my helper isn't dynamic. It takes it as if it was a string.

{{#each catalog.catalog_categories}}
    alert({{this.category_name_en_sh}} ); // Alert "Computer
    {{&categoryHelper this.category_name_fr_sh}}
{{/each}}

In my app.js

Ember.Handlebars.registerHelper('categoryHelper', function(category) {
    alert(category)  // Alert category_name_fr_sh
    ...
});

What am I doing wrong?

just use helper, not registerHelper

Ember.Handlebars.helper('categoryHelper', function(category) {
  alert(category);
});

registerHelper is the appropriate use if you are using stock handlebars, not the ember handlebars.
