BRANTFORD — For the first time this past weekend, Six Nations Polytechnic’s (SNP) STEAM Academy participated in a FIRST Robotics Canada competition and won the STEMley Cup Championship, beating out the previous champion after an intense day of competition. With just one week of training using a borrowed robot, the STEAM Academy team and their alliance were able to gather enough points in a close final match to de-throne the former titleholders; a feat which is virtually unheard of for a rookie team. Members of STEAMteam Robotics consisted of SNP STEAM Academy students Nicodemus Allan, Nathan Denecamp, Erick Martin, Jarrod Wardell, Paul Whiddett, STEAM Academy teacher Peter Gehbauer, and Vice Principal Trevor Gerard.

Six Nations Polytechnic’s (SNP) STEAM Academy participated in a FIRST Robotics Canada competition and won the STEMley Cup PHOTO SUBMITTED Championship.

The STEAM team competed against some of the best robotics teams in the world to achieve their first championship victory. When the final scores were tallied they gained an additional 50 points to secure their victory by a close four points. “The camaraderie and professionalism displayed by all teams was inspiring,” said STEAM Academy Vice Principal Trevor Gerard. “Teams lent tools, parts and expertise to

keep all robots from other teams operating throughout the competition. SNP STEAM Academy would like to thank MakeShift Robotics for their support and the use of their robot in STEAM’s first competition; the volunteers for helping make the STEMley Cup possible; and the supportive staff of FIRST Robotics Canada for their support in getting us started this year. Congratulations to each of the 32 teams who competed, we

look forward to seeing you in the 2019 competitions!" FIRST Robotics Canada is a registered charity that inspires high school students to pursue a future in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The competition that the STEAM Academy participated in was an off-season FIRST Robotics Canada event hosted by MakeShift Robotics and Celt-X. The Six Nations Polytechnic STEAM Academy is the first STEAM-focused (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) school in Canada that incorporates both the regular Ontario Secondary School Diploma, as well as a two-year “Computer Software Engineering Technician” college diploma. Although it is a private school, there is no tuition; at SNP, we want to ensure that our program is open and accessible to everyone regardless of their cultural or social background.

Greiving families plead for information in triple homocide Police seeking information on a truck that was involved, found near Oneida Nation of the Thames

OHSWEKEN – Police revealed new information in the ongoing investigation to the triple homicide at Six Nations and Oneida during a press conference on Thursday. OPP confirmed that one victim, Melissa Miller, was seven months pregnant with a son at the time of her Trevor Miller, brother of 37-year-old victim Melissa Miller, appealed to the public to share any information on the case while tearfully outlining the impact of the deaths on his family. ``This did not need to happen,'' Trevor Miller said moments after police disclosed that his sister was seven months pregnant with a baby boy at the time of her death. ``Somebody, come forward. I'm losing a nephew I never even met now.''Six Nations Indigenous Victim Services was on hand giving their support to all the victims families. HCCC Secretary Jock Hill, speaking on behalf of the Jamieson family, asked for anyone with information to come forward. “We all feel the same way. This is not right. By not sharing information that’s not right. We can’t proceed in this manner,” said Hill. Six Nations police acting Deputy-Chief Darren Montour said Miller and Porter were cousins, while Porter and Jamieson were ``inseparable friends.'' Police say the 2006 Chevy Silverado that was involved in the discovery of the bodies was stolen. They would not reveal details of

Speakers for the grieved families — Trevor Miller and Jock Hill were supported by Six Nations Elected Councillor Sherri-Lyn Hill Pierce, Acting Deputy Chief of Six Nations Police Darren Montour and OPP Inspector Peter Liptrott spoke at a news conference at Six Nations on Thursday seeking the public’s help in finding those responsible for the murders of Melissa Miller, Alan Porter and Micheal JamiePHOTO BY NAHNDA GARLOW son.

where it was stolen from - or confirm if the victims were found in the vehicle. OPP say they are holding back that information to not compromise their investigation. Six Nations Elected Councillor Sherri-Lyn Hill Pierce addressed the public thanking those present for respecting the families request for privacy as they grieve the loss. Hill Pierce said, “The loss of our community members has been heartbreaking and truly devastating. Our community agencies will continue to provide services to those community members that are working through their grief and confusion.” Hill Pierce of the Six Nations Band Council said the deaths have left the community reeling. ``Not just the families are suffering, it's a rippling effect on the whole community,'' Hill Pearce said. ``It's unacceptable, and ... someone does know something.'' Police would not confirm

why investigators seem to be rooting the investigation at Six Nations when the bodies were discovered outside Oneida Nation of the Thames. But did say that they are appealing for information at Six because this is the home of the victims. Police said they would not comment if they have a person in mind or have questioned suspects in the investigation. OPP were asked if there is any connection between the murders of the three victims and the 2017 murder of Douglas Hill, whose body was recovered in a location close to the Bodkin Road discovery this month. OPP Inspector Peter Liptrott said “we are investigating these three murders as a separate incident to that at this time.” “If there is anyone out there in the community, we implore those people to come forward and provide that information to assist our investigative team in

this information will be very upsetting for many, especially Melissa’s family. In our culture as Haudenosaunee people, a baby is the most precious gift you can receive from the Creator. They are the future of our people,” said Montour. Montour said, “We have to live with pain and heartbreak and as a community try to heal from these events and move forward. Our children deserve a safe and prosperous community to grow up in.” Officers would not confirm if a road block earlier this week and investigation of a cornfield on River Road/Seventh Line by police is connected to the investigation. They also would not speak to speculation that there may be a connection to the murder of Douglas Hill in 2017 but OPP Inspector Peter Liptrott said police are investigating all possibilities in the case.

identifying the culprits that are responsible for these murders — so we can proceed with our investigation, identify those people and hold them accountable in the criminal justice system,” said Liptrott. Montour said members of the community can expect an increased police presence of both Six Nations officers and OPP in both plain clothes and

marked vehicles for the duration of the investigation. Montour shared how difficult the situation is for the close-knit community of Six Nations. “I’m from here. I grew up here. These are my people, this is my home. When something like this happens it hits hard — everyone and especially the families that have been involved,” said Montour. “I’ve known the Miller family since I was a child and I didn’t know Al and Mike specifically but I know their families. That is what I mean. It’s a closeknit home.” Montour said he understands the reluctance of people from the community to trust OPP based on historical clashing, and says that was part of the reason officials decided to hold a cooperative press conference on the territory. "We want to build trust with people in the community to come forward." “Melissa was pregnant at the time of her death. She was carrying an unborn child, a little boy, of seven months. I know

OPINION editor@tworowtimes.com

Resilient indigenous in an age of reconciliation EDITORIAL BY NAHNDA GARLOW This week the government in Saskatchewan did something profound and important — making the choice to change a derogatory name of lakes in the province and change them to names that celebrate indigenous culture. A group of lakes called “Killsquaw Lake” near a town called “Unity” have been re-named. According to the Canadian Press elders gave the area a name in the Cree language that means “we honour the women.” Parks Minister Gene Makowsky says the area will now be known as Kikiskitotawanawak Iskewak Lakes. In a world where we are constantly reminding of the bad and offensive it is really encouraging and empowering to hear stories like this. That a Canadian province would not only remove an offensive name but then replace it with an empowering act of lending place for indigenous elders to re-name in the indigenous language and give honour to indigenous women is not just chicken soup for the soul — that’s meat and potatoes for the soul. Words have power. And an act of settlers releasing their colonial dominion over a place name and leaving space for indigenous elders to name for honour to the most oppressed of our families is a spiritual victory. However this news is also coming from a province that has made headlines in recent weeks for the shameful practice of medical officials coercing indigenous women into ‘voluntary’ sterilization. A class-action suit with about 70 registered members is now going forward on that case. Discovering this human atrocity is the opposite of meat and potatoes for the soul. It’s more like Soylent Green — finding out that the meat and potatoes is actually made out of people. Such is the life of being an indigenous person not only in Canada but across the world. We are up in the heavens soaring like eagles on one victory and the next we’re dredging through the very trenches of war — fighting oil pipelines and protesting for our lives to halt danger at every turn. It’s kind of exciting sometimes to be honest. But it’s always exhausting. Sometimes we get burned out and can’t keep up at the same pace the “normal" non-oppressed people in society can keep. Nevertheless, we keep going. We are resilient. The important thing to remember is to know the fight. It’s not always about raging until you win. Sometimes that part of it is there. But sometimes the fight is quiet. Sometimes it means reading or talking with others to make up your own mind. Likewise, rest must always be a part of the fight. And always — always — find time to laugh.

Muscogee Nation versus the free press The Native American Journalists Association (NAJA) and other free press advocates condemn the Muscogee (Creek) Nation's decision to repeal it’s press freedom law. The move by the nation's tribal council is an alarming attack on press freedom in Indian Country. On Nov. 7, the Muscogee (Creek) National Council introduced legislation to repeal the free press act. It was signed into law by Principal Chief James Floyd within 24 hours. NAJA has since confirmed that staff of Mvskoke Media, a tribally-funded media outlet, have been instructed to send all future content to the executive branch for approval. This is a direct form of censorship and restricts the ability of Mvskoke Media reporters to seek truth and report on stories of importance to Muscogee (Creek) citizens. During debate on the measure, elected officials cited a desire to see “more positive stories” in the newspaper.

It is the position of NAJA that the legal code of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation should reflect its values, and the repeal of the free press act is a direct attack on a fundamental Indigenous right. By repealing the law, the tribal council has dissolved the firewall between reporters and government officials, placing Mvskoke Media staff under the direction of the Secretary of the Nation and Commerce, Elijah W. McIntosh. Indigenous journalism plays a critical role in supporting tribal sovereignty and self-determination. From holding the powerful accountable to disseminating stories of cultural significance, a free and independent Indigenous press supports the goals of tribal nations by providing an open public forum for community voices. The council's actions undermine this role and demean this traditional responsibility. The new historians of the Muscogee (Creek) hold the responsibility

of passing on a complete history of the nation to the next generation. The council's actions sever its ties to its past and future by failing to recognize the importance of those stories and the journalists telling them. NAJA and its partners call for the immediate reinstatement of the free press act and for Muscogee (Creek) officials to allow citizens to receive, and impart, information without government interference. Signed, Native American Journalists’ Association Indigenous Media Freedom Alliance Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press Committee to Protect Journalists Reporters Without Borders for Press Freedom

Op-Ed: The Death Knock - ethics in reporting By Chezney Martin The more that numbers are used to represent people, the less human those numbers become. That is fact. The media, especially non-indigenous media, has created a surplus of dehumanization time and time again through the overuse of numbers in statistics while seeming to disallow media coverage of the actual people affected by those numbers. In other words, you are more likely to read a story telling you that there are over 2000 murdered and missing indigenous women, than you are to read the story of how important indigenous women are to their families. On another note, more dehumanization can be seen in the portrayal of suspects in news stories. If you take a look at recent head lines in the media regarding an African American male and compare them to the headlines for a male of

European descent, there is a huge and stark contrast in the way that they are portrayed. One is often portrayed as already guilty and the other tends to be portrayed as mentally ill. The same for indigenous people as oftentimes their voices are skewed or their words are taken out of context. So tell me why a grieving indigenous family would want to speak to the media. You can’t. Not only are our communities incredibly interwoven, with families knowing and visiting their first to seventh cousins on a normal basis, they are protective of their grief. Their grief is theirs, their mourning is theirs and to display that on a grand scale is something that is generally out of the question. This is because our people don’t turn to outlets or strangers with notebooks and recorders to grieve, they turn to each other. It’s simple to understand that

Volume 6, Issue 15

people are people and that they aren’t the word count at the bottom of Microsoft Word — which are, again, more numbers to dehumanize. So when reporters have to make what is called the “death knock,” I’m sure it is emotionally taxing. But, as a journalist is it really that all-consuming to act like a vulture and look into the eyes of someone that is grieving and ask them to lay out their grievances to later be written down and pinned up, just for a news story? I’d say nay. Journalists have the right to refuse to cover stories like that. I mean, from a strict reporters point of view, perhaps it is important to give grieving families a voice. But your best intentions can cause what is called re-traumatization. So, in my opinion, if an indigenous family isn’t already vocal about their grief, don’t bother trying to get them to open up. Let them heal.

Hooking in public: The history of ‘the hook’ NAHNDA GARLOW

nahnda@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

Perhaps it is because of the power of social media connecting Haudenosaunee people beyond territorial gaps, but it seems to me that ‘the hook’ has been showing up a lot more recently. This hand gesture of disputed origin is often used between Haudenosaunee people to keep things light hearted and make people laugh. Basically you take your pointer finger and your thumb, make a sideways letter C shape out of them, and “flash” it at people. But what does it mean? What exactly is ‘the hook’? Where did it come from? There are many stories of its origin, all of them conflicting. One thing is for certain: effective use of the sudden hook imparts light hearted shock and awe, translating into ice breaking belly laughter from Haudenosaunee people no matter how old they are. Unfortunately to some it is incorrectly seen as a vulgar hand signal which can be likened to giving a person the middle finger. Usually in this application it is likely to be flashed at a non-Haudeosaunee person during times of road rage or when someone is staring at you too long. In

these cases ‘the hook’ can potentially be effective enough to make the other party stop bothering you pretty quickly – either because they are afraid it’s a gang symbol or because they’re just plain confused. However this is widely considered to be an inappropriate use of ‘the hook’. Some people think the hook is so vulgar that if you flash it to them in friendship they misunderstand completely and will get right salty. For days they’ll be offended and may even go gossiping about you to others saying things like, “I seen Joe the other day and he flashed me the hook. I ain’t talking to him no more.” Some Six Nay Rez-torians dispute that the hook was originally used as a light hearted way to make fun of the size of a man’s genitalia. In this context it is usually done between good friends in jest. This prompted hilarious gross exaggerations where people would flash the insulting mini-hook to a friend whereby the insulted friend would knowingly laugh at the accusation and then immediately but silently flash back the contrasting full-arm hook as if to say, ‘no my friend, I am indeed endowed.’ Historically speaking, the hook has been arguably used for centuries to

confound non-Haudenosaunee authorities across Turtle Island. A certain elder told my husband the hook was originally a light hearted response to cross-cultural differences dating back to when Haudenosaunee people first allied politically with non-native people. From this perspective, the hook was a way to make fun of British quantitative perceptions of time as length. British officials would often ask Haudenosaunee people how long it would take to get through the protocols of prayers and speeches at council before the ‘official proceedings’ would begin. Haudenosaunee people, somewhat insulted by our stoic and time-dependent British allies, would then respond with a non-confrontational and light hearted flash of the hook and reply with “Oh, about this long” — confounding and correcting our British allies all at once. I can see truth in this story. It re-affirms a general teaching within the Haudenosaunee community and the greater indigenous community

of North America that laughter should always be a part of the ‘official’ proceedings. Be they our historic allies or the politicians, RCMP, teachers, news correspondents, and judges of today – all ‘outsiders’ are met with confusion and uncertainty on how

application of the hook is applied – and are barely able to contain themselves if they see someone flash the hook in public. This was perfectly captured in the summer of 2014 during a live streamed broadcast of the North American Indigenous Games opening

to respond when flashed the hook. I guess that is a part of what makes its use so enjoyable: seeing the caught off-guard glint in the eyes of their “…wait, what?” internal processing. In contrast, those who are hook-familial gain a sense of unity and camaraderie when appropriate

ceremonies in Regina. Whenever there was a crowd of ten or more Hauds – somewhere in the crowd there was a random hand sticking out flashing the hook. A few seats over there would always be another Haudenosaune witness to this appropriate use of the hook and they’d be just grinning at

the camera with a mischievous gleam in their eyes. In another public hooking incident during an international live streamed championship lacrosse game, one Haudenosaunee player sent to the penalty box flashed the hook to the camera as if to say hello to the folks at home. Could it be that flashing the hook is so much a part of our distinct Haudenosaunee identity that it has become the natural knee-jerk reaction to being suddenly caught on camera? There is something bigger and better to the hook than just a silly hand signal. It’s real. It’s not about the shape that you make your hand into, or even about what you think it means. It’s about that moment when we recognize real, come together truly of one mind – and laugh out loud – the way ‘He Who Created Our Bodies’ likes us to laugh. No matter its origins, the hook is now a distinct and important part of our Haudenosaunee identity that should not be despised just because it is not romantic or written about in history books. No! The hook is one of the small things about being a Haudenosaunee that is alive and well. And after all – it’s the little things that count.

Election Code committee to host final engagement session NAHNDA GARLOW

nahnda@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

OHSWEKEN — The Six Nations Election Code has been under review by the people of Six Nations of the Grand River over eight months of community consultation sessions. This Friday, the Election Code committee will present the findings from those discussions to the community in advance of making revisions — updating a decades old policy and bringing the process of how Six Nations selects it’s elected leadership into the new millennium. The volunteer committee collected feedback from community members during engagement sessions, through online questionnaires and paper surveys — asking what changes, rules and regulations Six Nations com-

munity members want to include in the process of electing leaders to sit on the community’s band council. That research data will be collected and presented at the final community engagement session on November 23 at the Six Nations Community Hall starting at 5 p.m.. “In a lot of cases there were not a lot of people that came out but we had some great conversations, two hour conversations. People had a lot to say. They filled out the surveys. They had a lot to say about things they liked, things they didn’t like, how they would like to see changes happen, it was good. It was usually a very good conversation.” Said Claudine VanEvery-Albert, one of the Six Nations Elections Code committee volunteers. Another of the team’s volunteers, Wilma Green, said getting into those

good long conversations has been a crucial part of the next step of revising the elections code — giving the committee context to why the community wants to see the changes they are asking for. “We’ve asked the community for explanations as to what they want to see. As opposed to just saying, we want to see the districts amalgamated, we’ve asked the community why they want to see that happen. That will help us decide how to write it,” said Green. The committee held 12 meetings in total. After six meetings the feedback the committee says community members continually pointed back to the same items they want to see revised in the current elections code. Changes to the number of electoral districts and number of councillors, changes to the length of terms, limiting the num-

ber of terms a councillor can serve, establishing minimum education requirements for councillors and establishing an integrity commission either by appointment or election — to uphold a code of conduct and oath of office for councillors were all regularly addressed issues during community consultation sessions. This prompted the committee to create an online survey specifically addressing these issues and seeking community response online. Currently there are 12 elected councillors sitting on the council, two per district, and one elected chief who sits as the

By Jusin Fauteux HAMILTON - The description beneath Marjorie Anderson’s photo in the 1935 McMaster yearbook reads, “The sort of person to whom people tell their troubles.” Eighty-three years after that description was published, Anderson’s son, Don Lynch, says there couldn’t be a better way to remember his mother. “She was such a kind person. She was always helping people,” said Lynch. “She was a humble, humble person and she helped so many people in big and small ways.” In 1935 Anderson became the first Indigenous woman to graduate from McMaster. Born in Ohsweken, Ont. in 1913, Anderson, one of 10 children, went to university as a French major at a time when very few of her peers were even considering post-secondary education. As McMaster Associate Professor Rick Monture put it, going to university was “like going to Mars,” for many young Indigenous women. Now a new grant named in honour of Anderson, who died in 2002, is helping Indigenous students pursue post-secondary education at McMaster. Established in 2017 as part of McMaster’s response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s report, the Marjorie Anderson Academic Grant for Indigenous Students awards up to $80,000 ($20,000 per year) to Indigenous students from the Six Nations of the Grand River or the Mississaugas of the New Credit starting their first year at the university.

“McMaster is very proud to offer the Marjorie Anderson Academic Grant,” said Provost and Vice-President (Academic) David Farrar. “The grant allows us to not only honour the memory of the first Indigenous woman to graduate from our university, but also improve access to post-secondary education for future generations of Indigenous students.” The four inaugural winners of the grant were honoured Thursday morning at an event hosted by Student Financial Aid and Scholarships and Indigenous Student Services. At the event, Lynch — who was joined by Marjorie Anderson’s sister, Jacquie Dale, and Monture, another relative of Anderson’s — shared memories and anecdotes of his mother, including a fitting story of how Anderson almost didn’t graduate because her government financial aid was unexpectedly pulled. “My grandfather went in and spoke to someone at McMaster and the response he got was ‘they can’t do this to us.’ I always liked the emphasis on ‘us’ in that response,” said Lynch. “The financial aid was restored, and she was able to graduate. “It’s only fitting that it’s come full circle now and students can benefit in her name.” The winners of the grant — Abigail Kelly, Social Sciences; Aidan Ritchie-Dickinson, Engineering; Cheyenne Tehkummah, Social Sciences; and Cheyanne Thompson, Social Sciences — were selected by a committee of McMaster faculty and staff. “Our inaugural grant

winners are such impressive young people,” said Tracie Long, Senior Associate Registrar: Student Financial Aid and Scholarships. “It is an honour to help welcome them to the McMaster community and we are looking forward to watching their continued growth through their years on campus.” For the four students, winning the grant has provided crucial financial assistance to help them achieve their post-secondary goals. “I’m the first person in my family to go to university and without this support I wouldn’t be here,” said Tehkummah. “It’s such an honour to win this grant and I’m just so thankful.” “I’m really honoured to be here,” added Thompson, who spoke to the powerful experience of hearing Marjorie Anderson’s story. “This really motivates me to do the best I possibly can.” Lynch says helping students further their education is the perfect tribute to his mother. “If she were here, she would wish you well and do whatever she could to help you,” he told the four grant winners. “My mother always said, ‘education is its own reward.’ That’s what she taught me and I hope you take to that idea as well.” Applications for the 2019-20 Marjorie Anderson Academic Grant for Indigenous Students will be available through the Student Financial Aid & Scholarships website. “This article was first published on Daily News.

OHSWEKEN – During the Champions for Change Indigenous Education Conference today, Six Nations Polytechnic (SNP) announced that they have been awarded an Ontario Trillium Foundation Grow Grant of $732,000 over three years to continue efforts to stabilize Indigenous Languages. This new project builds from an SNP research study exploring pathways to creating speakers of Ogwehoweh languages at Six Nations of the Grand River and is intended to develop additional language skills and knowledge within the Six Nations community. To achieve these objectives, the project will hire and train eight highly proficient speakers of the Cayuga language, as well as create an archive of resources for speakers and learners. For SNP, it will also create

a pool of speakers—and teachers—who can help deliver SNP’s expanding language programming. “When it comes to language revitalization, we recognize that it’s important to take action on several fronts,” said Sara General, Acting Director of Research and Development for SNP. “The first is to create new second language speakers, and our previous research study offered clear next steps as to how we should approach that goal. A second, but equally pressing need is to document our current first and second language speakers and create accessible archives that learners and students can use for years to come.” The new funding will be used to provide adult learners with up to 3600 hours of intensive immersion language program-

ming through an approach that includes working with first language speakers. It will also produce a minimum of 500 hours of audio and visual material. “Once launched, this project will be the most significant effort to stabilize the Cayuga language that our organization has ever initiated,” said SNP President Rebecca Jamieson. “This is a critical opportunity for SNP and the Six Nations community. Through this project we can work to create proficient speakers of the Cayuga language and help develop the capacity to support our current and future language programming. To say we are excited is an understatement.” The project will formally launch in January 2019. The United Nations has also declared 2019 as the “International Year of Indigenous Languages.”

Tom's personal quest

Musician turned author Tom Wilson gave a lecture at Laurier last Tuesday. PHOTO BY TIM REYNOLDS

BRANTFORD — On November 13, Canadian rock musician and author Tom Wilson was the latest guest lecturer at Laurier Brantford in part of the 2018-2019 lecture series for the Friends and Neighbours group. The grassroots committee is seeking to promote community dialogue about residential schools in Canada and to help raise awareness for the Save the Evidence campaign to restore the former Mohawk Institute. Wilson is known for his musical career as frontman for Canadian rock bands Junkhouse and Lee Harvey Osmond. He has written songs recorded by Sarah MacLaughlan, Colin James, Billy Ray Cyrus and The Rankin Family. In mid-life, in his 50s, Tom learned that the parents who raised him were not his birth parents; that, in fact, he was adopted

and that his biological mother was a longtime family friend from the Kahnawake reserve, just outside of Montreal. Grappling with this newfound sense of himself plunged Tom into a quest for his heritage and his truth, and led to the writing of his bestselling autobiography, ‘Beautiful Scars’. The book is a colourful and truthful tale of this quest, and his life’s tribulations and successes along the path. Wilson says the experience led him to new works examining his birth into the world as an infant and new birth into the knowledge of his identity as a Mohawk man. Wilson has a new art show launching at the Art Gallery of Burlington on December 1. ‘Beautiful Scars Mohawk Warriors, Hunters & Chiefs: The Art of Tom Wilson’ will show in the gallery until January 27.

TORONTO — A new report shows a shocking 60 percent decline in global wildlife populations over the last 40 years. Researchers from the World Wildlife Fund say that since the 1970s Canada’s mammal pop-

ulations dropped by 43 per cent, amphibian and reptile populations by 34 per cent and fish populations by 20 per cent. The report confirmed that some types of birds have lost up to 69 per cent of their populations.

TORONTO — No winning ticket was sold for the $55 million jackpot in Friday night's Lotto Max draw. Three of the draw's Maxmillions prizes of $1 million each were claimed

pensary this week. Chief Anthony Cappo has said the First Nation has a sovereign right to pass its own cannabis regulations. Justice Minister Don Morgan says the federal government delegated ju-

risdiction over cannabis sales to the provinces. He says he's disappointed that the First Nation's leadership went ahead with the dispensary without talking to the province first.

This year in the judging category, first place went to Six Nations Childcare Services, second place went to Community Living and third place went to the New Credit Fellowship Centre. While the People’s Choice Award also went to the New Credit Fellowship Centre. On behalf of the Santa Clause Parade Committee, special thanks to Ohsweken Speedway and

the Styres family, the Six nations Police, the Six Nations Fire Department, the Six Nations Ambulance, Redrum and the Six nations Gaming Commission. The committee would also like to offer their deepest condolences to the family of Cathy Honyust, who recently passed away.

Study: Weak reporting on missing, murdered Native women CANADIAN PRESS

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Numerous police departments nationwide are not adequately identifying or reporting cases of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls as concerns mount over the level of violence they often face, according to a study released by a Native American non-profit Wednesday. The report from the Seattle-based Urban Indian Health Institute, the research arm of the Seattle Indian Health Board, was conducted over the past year amid worry in tribal communities and cities that Native American and Alaska Native women are vanishing in high numbers, despite a lack of available government data to identify the full scope of the problem. U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, a Republican from Alaska, joined other lawmakers and representatives of the Urban

Indian Health Institute to review the report's findings at a news conference in Washington. Its release comes as multiple bills at the state and federal level have been proposed to address the issue and improve data collection, including Savanna's Act, which the U.S. Senate Committee on Indian Affairs voted Wednesday to send to the full chamber for consideration. The bill would expand tribal access to some federal crime databases, establish protocols for handling cases of missing and murdered Native Americans, and require annual reports on the number of missing and murdered Native American women. ``We simply don't have a grasp of the extent of the problem we're dealing with,'' Murkowski said. ``Making sure that we do not have these gaps in reporting is going to be a critical and important first step.'' The authors of the Seattle non-profit's report said they identified some

500 missing persons and homicide cases involving Native American women in 71 cities after reviewing data obtained through media reports and public records requests sent to police departments. They reviewed cases dating back to the 1940s, though roughly twothirds were from the past eight years, according to Annita Lucchesi, a cartographer and descendant of the Southern Cheyenne whose database of missing and murdered indigenous women in the U.S. and Canada was the basis for the research. In total, she has a list of some 2,700 names. Of the cases included in the report on U.S. cities, a quarter represented missing persons cases, and just more than half were homicides. Researchers said they expect their figures represent an undercount, in part, because some police departments in cities with substantial Native American populations _ such as Albuquerque and Billings, Montana _

did not provide figures in response to records requests, or because Native American victims may have been identified as belonging to another race. Police in Albuquerque and Billings did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' requests for comment. ``What it does show is, yes, this is happening,'' said Abigail Echo-Hawk, who is the director of the Urban Indian Health Institute. ``But there has to be major changes to the way data is collected.'' Some efforts to improve data collection at different levels of government are already underway. In Washington state, for example, a law was enacted in June that requires the State Patrol to conduct a study to examine how to improve the collection and sharing of information about missing Native American women. The study also will develop an estimate of how many Native women are missing in

the state. A report to the Legislature is expected in June. In Congress, meanwhile, Savanna's Act is among several proposals drafted to address cases involving missing and murdered Native American and Alaska Native women. A proposal for reauthorizing the Violence Against Women's Act also calls for annual reports on the number of missing and murdered Native Americans. Savanna's Act was introduced last year by North Dakota Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, a Democrat who lost her bid for re-election last week. She named the bill Savanna's Act in honour of Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind, a 22-year-old who was brutally killed in Fargo, North Dakota, in 2017 while eight months pregnant. Her neighbour Brooke Crews admitted to the killing and was sentenced to life in prison without parole earlier. Her boyfriend William Hoehn was sentenced last month

to life in prison with a chance at parole for conspiring to kidnap the baby and lying to police about it. The child survived and lives with her father. Heitkamp has said that if authorities had more accurate statistics, they might be able to detect patterns to help solve more cases. The authors of the non-profit's report share that opinion, but also point out that the legislation's data collection mandates likely would not include LaFontaine-Greywind herself. That's because the bill would largely set mandates for federal law enforcement, which has some jurisdiction over crimes on reservations and other tribal lands but not municipalities, like Fargo. The report underscores U.S. Census figures showing that a majority of Native Americans now live in urban areas. The study said that shows the need for including consideration of cases stemming from cities in reforms.

Indigenous leaders say reconciliation involves recognition of values, culture CANADIAN PRESS

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

SIDNEY, B.C. – A federal government initiative to support Indigenous conservation efforts will help strengthen reconciliation across Canada, chiefs, leaders and elders said Tuesday. The leaders from British Columbia, Manitoba and Nunavut told federal Environment Minister Catherine McKenna that reconciliation involves recognizing and supporting the deep connections their people have to the land. McKenna announced $5.7 million in funding from the Indigenous Guardians pilot program for 28 conservation projects. The initiative is part of a $25 million program announced in last year's budget.

The leaders said their planned projects are varied, but together they reveal the need to save traditions and build relationships. One project looks to preserve languages, another examines hunting skills and one seeks to address climate change in the Far North. ``For me reconciliation is relationships,'' said Chief David Walkem, of B.C.'s Cook's Ferry Indian Band. ``If we can have a good relationship with someone, then we can have a better chance of understanding each other,'' He said the eight Indigenous communities that comprise the Nlaka'pamux Nation, including his band in B.C.'s Interior, plan to use the pilot program to provide language training and bring people closer to the land. ``We've created books

on our own foods so we can encourage our people to get back on the land so we can eat healthier,'' Walkem said. ``This program provides us a really good opportunity to help bring some of that together and implement on the ground a lot of what we've been doing.'' Will Goodon, Manitoba's Metis Federation housing spokesman, said the pilot project will be used to keep alive the connections Metis have to the wilderness. ``I used to think everybody took the second week in November off to go deer hunting,'' he said. Goodon said he doesn't want to see the Metis lose their hunting traditions. ``The Guardians (program) is, yes, about protecting the land, but it's also about protecting our families and our communities,'' he said.

The Timmins Museum: National Exhibition Centre is a public resource dedicated to the presentation, promotion and preservation of heritage and culture through exhibitions, community education and public programmes . The centre is located at 325 Second Avenue, in downtown Timmins. The museum includes a local history gallery featuring rotating exhibitions on the Porcupine Camp, one of Canada’s most important gold mining areas. Our national exhibition centre hosts travelling exhibitions from museums and galleries from across Canada. Bilingual educational programmes are available for grades one to twelve. We also offer a variety of workshops for adults and children dealing with arts and heritage themes. The museum grounds include an example of a historic Hollinger House; the exhibits in the home depict what life could have been like in the 1930’s in Timmins. A prospectors’ cabin recreates a bit of the wild frontier and tells the story of early prospectors to our area. The museum archival collection includes over 20,000 images of the Porcupine, dating from 1908 as well as an extensive book collection and some archival material from local mines. Researchers are welcomed to use our archives; arrangements to do so can be made by contacting the museum in advance. Finally, a trip to the museum would not be complete without a visit to our Museum Gift Shop. The boutique features handcrafted articles made by Canadian artists and artisans. We also stock local books, souvenirs and boast a wicked kids’ section! The Timmins Museum: National Exhibition Centre is opened all year, seven days a week. Admission to the museum is free.

It caught on pretty huge in the 90’s before nerd culture was actually cool. Until now, the huge cost of making a Warhammer army prevented most people from really enjoying everything Games Workshop had to offer. This was my first go at a Total War franchise game but after playing over one hundred hours of the Warhammer variation in professional review mode, I have formed some solid opinions. ‘Total War: Warhammer' is a strategy game but that doesn’t mean it is slow paced or boring. Yes the

campaign mode is a grand theatre of war that can take longer than the longest game of ‘Risk' but because you can save the game at any time, it is playable in small digestible chunks. For multiplayer there are two options, Co-op Campaign which has a limit of 2 players or Battles which can accommodate 4 total players. Battles is one encounter between armies either against human opponents or against computer controlled AI players. It’s really fun. No matter which mode you play the concept is simple - amass a larger army than the next guy then go all in and attack. In multiplayer battles each player is given an equal amount of resources and they “build” their custom army or you can just roll the dice and have one randomly chosen for you. The different types of armies this game offers

is really amazing. Here is a little rundown of some playstyles I’ve encountered. The Dwarfs play very defensively, have very little movement and are best suited for defending a mountainous keep. Instead of having cavalry like normal armies they instead rely on their hardy toughness and insidious

machinery such as cannons, flamethrowers and gyrocopters. When playing as the Dwarfs you really have to watch your flanks in battle. I recommend an army made mostly of Longbeards, Thunderers, and artillery – sprinkle in a few elite units such as Hammerers, Ironbreakers or Slayers as needed to dominate and let

the enemy come to you. Chaos armies are similar to Dwarf armies in some respects, they have high toughness Chaos Warriors that can hold their ground and they do have a siege artillery called the Hellcannon but that is where the similarities end. Marauder Horsemen, Chaos Knights, War Chariots, and Dragon

Ogre’s are all very fast units that can close ground quickly on the battlefield. Units such as these make the Chaos army very flexible in battle. If you like movement these guys are great. There are also other factions such as the Wood Elves, Orc’s and Goblins, and Empire but be warned, some of it is DLC that needs to be purchased. Still, $19.99 for the Wood Elves DLC is pretty reasonable considering the cost of miniatures. A Games Workshop Warhammer army in pewter/resin can easily cost more than $1000 – not to mention the billions of hours it takes to paint a whole army. There are free DLC options such as the Bretonian expansion. All expansions are compatible with the sequel Total War: Warhammer II.

Examine allegations of 'monstrous' forced sterilization of Indigenous women: NDP CANADIAN PRESS

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

OTTAWA — The federal government and the provinces must examine ``monstrous'' allegations of modern-day forced sterilizations of Indigenous women, NDP reconciliation critic Romeo Saganash said Monday before he pressed for answers in the House of Commons. Coerced sterilization clearly breaches human-rights standards that Canada must fight to uphold, Saganash in an interview Monday, and said that authorities

should very carefully read Article 2 of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide adopted by the UN in 1948. That international agreement says that ``genocide'' includes any acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, such as by ``imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group.'' Canadians should not tolerate allegations of forced sterilization in their country, Saganash said, and Ottawa must address the issue as victims share their stories.

``I think they have to take this seriously,'' said the Cree lawyer and MP from northern Quebec. ``Just the fact that it is happening and people are coming out makes it serious enough to look for a solution.'' The issue of forced sterilizations will also be raised at the UN Committee Against Torture this week, when Amnesty International Canada and a national law firm call for accountability for the practice. Maurice Law is leading a proposed class-action lawsuit against the federal government, the government of Saskatchewan, all its health authorities,

and individual medical professionals. The lawsuit was launched in 2017 by two affected women in the Saskatoon Health Region who each claimed $7 million in damages. Now about 60 women are part of the lawsuit. An additional 32 women have come forward to report they were sterilized without consent since The Canadian Press first published a story last Sunday, associate Alisa Lombard said Monday, noting the women are mostly from Saskatchewan but elsewhere as well. In its submission to the UN committee, Maurice Law said there has been

no effort at a comprehensive review to understand the scale of the problem or the conditions that make forced sterilizations possible. It also listed a number of solutions, including a proposal to specifically criminalize forced sterilization as the ``single most effective, immediate and enduring measure that could be taken'' to protect women from this practice. The Liberal government has not indicated it is looking at this step. During question period on Monday, Indigenous Services Minister Jane Philpott said the Liberal government knows coerced sterilization is a gross violation of human rights and of reproductive rights. The federal government is actively working with provinces and faculties of medicine to ensure safe and culturally appropriate health care is available across the country, she added.

``This is not something that any one order of government can address alone,'' Philpott said. ``All Canadians have a responsibility to ensure that these practices never happen again.'' For its part, Amnesty International Canada has recommended the federal government appoint a special representative to examine the prevalence of the practice. Yvonne Boyer, a Metis senator for Ontario, has welcomed this recommendation. She's said that tubal ligations carried out on unwilling Indigenous women constitute one of the ``most heinous'' practices in health care in Canada. Assembly of First Nations National Chief Perry Bellegarde also wants to see the scope of forced sterilization examined and called the practice wrong, immoral and a gross human-rights violation.

OHSWEKEN — Six Nations Police say residents in the community can expect an increased police presence of plain clothes and uniformed OPP officers in the territory while officers investigate every lead in an ongoing triple homicide investigation. Melissa Miller, Alan Porter and Micheal Jamieson were found dead near Oneida Nation of the Thames on November 4. Police said during a press conference that they are investigating all tips they receive and are looking for members of the community to come forward. A spokesperson for

some of the families, Jock Hill, made an appeal to anyone in the community who has information about the victim’s deaths to come forward. Six Nations Elected Councillor Sherri-Lyn Hill Pierce said the victims families continue to receive assistance from community services and asked for all to respect the privacy of the grieving families. Police are seeking information about a 2006 grey Chevy Silverado pick up truck that was recovered along with the victims bodies. Anyone with information or who may have seen the truck before November 4 is asked to contact OPP, Six Nations Police or Crimestoppers.

BRANTFORD — Sara General and Elizabeth Doxtator opened a joint book launch at the Woodland Cultural Centre on Friday, November 16, to reveal their two additions to the library of indigenous novels. General thrives as a writer, an artist and a language learner and her novel Pride and Rezjudice

is an adaptation of the classic written by Jane Austen. She utilized the classic love story and rewrote it with an indigenous perspective in a way that refreshes the tale and includes community, land and language. Doxtator is considered an exceptional cornhusk artist, beadwork artist, painter and writer. Her collection of stories titled Dreamfast, A Trail of Stories to Lead You Home is a book that gathers and bundles snapshots of

Haudenosaunee history, stories and life on the reserve into one. Visitors to the launch were welcome to purchase the books in tandem as well as to enjoy a light feast while the duo provided a question and answer session and performed readings of pieces from their novels. At times emotional and at times humorous, the launch reflected the authors personalities in a light that could only be mirrored in their writing.

BRANTFORD — In the evening of Friday, November 30, Six Nations own musical talent Logan Staats will be performing at the Sanderson Centre to collect toys for a toy drive that he has opened to help families of Six Nations and Brantford that are in need this holiday season. Along with the opportunity to enjoy an awesome night of music, visitors are encouraged to bring toys for children and youth of any age to help in the effort. And while Staats has gained a lot of notoriety as an artist, he explained that he wanted to use it for good. “It was almost a year ago that I played at the Sanderson Centre and we pretty much sold out,” said Staats. “That was the first time that that’s happened at the Sanderson Centre for a local artist in a really long time, so I wanted to take that momentum and that local support and use it for the advantage of our community somehow.” This prompted Staats to select a toy drive, as he remarked that the realities of the holiday season for some families are oftentimes harsh. “I know that it’s a very harsh and real reality

that a lot of kids in our community don’t have the privilege of waking up to having a lot of toys this Christmas. So I figured, you know if I could put on a concert and I could combine music and charity, that it would just be a good thing and I couldn’t go wrong with it,” he said. He remarked that performances have taken him all over Turtle Island and the itch to play on his “own stomping grounds” again as he hopes to connect with his local fan base. A folk trio dubbed the Jeff Hudson Band will be opening for the evening and Staats will be performing with his full band, which he hasn’t done on

home soil, rather than solo. “This will give my local fans the opportunity to hear us full force, with my drummer and my bass player and guitar player. It’s really kind of a different show, so I’ll be giving the people something new in that regard,” he said. Staats included that he has some new music to share and hopes that the event will be a success for the benefit of those in need this Christmas. If you have any ideas in regards to where the toys should be sent, Staats is open to suggestion and you can reach out via his Facebook page.

Hagersville Hawks looking for another surge JIM WINDLE

jim@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

HAGERSVILLE — The Grimsby Peach Kings put a speed-bump in the road for the surging Hagersville Hawks Saturday at the Hagersville Arena. Grimsby leads the division with 18 wins, three losses, and a tie for 37 points heading into this week’s Jr. C hockey action, however, they have played more games than the next four teams. Hagersville has played 19 games with game number 20 coming up Tuesday night and will miss our deadline. They have nine wins, seven losses a tie and OT loss. Jacob Balca scored for the Kings, shorthanded, at 14:29. There was no scoring in the second frame as Justin Easter kept the Hawks close, stopping 15 of 16 shots over two periods. The Peach Kings expanded their lead to 2-0 at 4:37 of the third period.

A late Hagersville goal breathed some life back into the Hawks when Patrick Sanelli got Hagersville on the board with a power play goal scored at 16:59 from Tycie Coswen and Peter Cappucci. But with Easter on the bench for an extra attacker, the Kings took advantage of the open net with one second remaining for the 3-1 Grimsby win. Next up for the Hawks as mentioned is Tuesday versus Hespeler, in Hagersville before taking the show to the Gale Centre Thursday to face the Niagara Riverhawks. Saturday, the Hawks will be hosted by the Hespeler Shamrocks for an 8:30 start at the Hespeler Arena. They stay on the road Sunday for an afternoon matinee matchup with the Port Dover Sailors. Including Tuesday, should Hagersville sweep all four games, it would be worth eight points, and could close the gap on the Peach Kings and the second place Glanbrook Rangers.

Rumour mill says Montour may become a Leaf By Jim Windle

ANAHEIM — After 22 games on the blue line so far this season, Six Nations’ Brandon Montour and his Anaheim Ducks are settled into the middle of the Pacific Division, four points behind the first place San Jose Sharks, two behind Calgary and one point in back of the Vancouver Canukes. Brantford’s Adam Henrique has four goals and six assists in the same number of games as a centre. On Friday last, the Toronto Maple Leafs won 2-1 in overtime against the Ducks. Scoring for Toronto were Patrick Marleau, his fourth, and Morgan Rielly who won it in OT, with his ninth of the year. Pontus Aberg notched his sixth of the season from Ritchie and Henrique. Rumours of Montour being courted by the Leafs as trade deadline ap-

proaches, in a possible deal that move William Nylander and his enormous wallet. Although Leaf insiders and Toronto sports writers agree that one-for-one, a Nylander for Montour deal is a non-starter, but a package deal could be worked out. For Six Nations hockey fans, the very thought of Montour in Toronto Maple Leaf blue is an exciting one, especially this year when the Leafs rebuilding a contender for the Cup that eluded them since 1967. No doubt, there would be a lot of trips to the ACC from Six Nations should that materialize, But the Ducks seem pretty pleased with their second year blue liner, and there have been no serious rumours out of Anaheim. Saturday, Nov. 18th, the Colorado Avalanche beat the Ducks 4-3 in OT with Montour scoring his second of the season on a wrap around.

There is a rumour that will keep Six Nations hockey fans up at night in excitement. Although the rumours are not strong at this point, the name Brandon Montour has come up in the Maple Leaf’s inner sanctum as a possible answer to the William Nylander contract stalemate.

“Last couple of games they’ve been asking for more shots and we knew they were going to come,” Montour said of his increasing role as an offensive threat. “We’ve got key players on our team that are out, but we have all the confidence in the world with the guys we have coming up and down from San Diego (AHL). They are getting their experience,

getting more minutes, and that’s nice.” At 24, Montour finds himself the second oldest on the Ducks back line thanks to those injuries, and is stepping up to the task. FYI — Nylander, a restricted free agent, must agree to terms on a new contract before Dec. 1 or sit out the entire 2018-19 season.

N7 Fund Awards recognize indigenous sports organizations

BEAVERTON, ORE. — At the beginning of this month, Nike announced the latest round of grant recipients for the Nike N7 Fund. As part of the 20172018 N7 Fund grant cycle, Nike is awarding grants to 20 organizations serving Native American and Aboriginal youth across North America. Through this grant cycle, the N7 Fund awarded 15 “Grassroots” grant recipients with a total of $250,000,

which included one year project grants for tribal organizations and communities that manage sport and physical activity programs. The fund also provided second-year funding to five “Build the Field” grantees, which are multi-year grants of $50,000 each, for capacity building within Native American non-profit organizations, for a total of $150,000 over three years. The N7 Fund is Nike’s longtime commitment to bring sport and all its benefits to Native American and Aboriginal communities in North America,

with a focus on youth. The N7 Collection supports the N7 Fund to help organizations provide sport and physical activity programming to Native American and Aboriginal communities as a part of Made to Play, Nike’s commitment to getting kids around the world moving so that they can lead healthier, happier and more successful lives. Since 2009, the N7 Fund has awarded $5.6 million in grants to 243 communities and organizations across the U.S. and Canada, reaching more than 420,000 youth. The N7 Fund is administered with the support of the

OTTAWA — Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario and the City of Ottawa, along with Ottawa Tourism, have reached an exclusive multi-year agreement prioritizing Indigenous wellness through sport, leadership and community development. The landmark initiative was reached in partnership and consultation with the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation, Kitigan Zibi First Nation, the Algonquin Nation, the Métis Nation of Ontario, the Mohawk Nation of Akwesasne, Tungasuvvingat Inuit and the Ottawa Aboriginal Coalition, who have a well-established relationship with ISWO, as a result of recent collaboration on a bid for the 2020

North American Indigenous Games (NAIG). “Although we lost the bid to host the 2020 NAIG, the collaborative work we did in preparing for the bid, the dialogue with Indigenous community partners, local organizations, post-secondary institutions, the City of Ottawa and Ottawa Tourism, has resulted in an unprecedented and historic agreement, increasing sport and wellness opportunities for Indigenous Peoples in the Ottawa region and across Ontario,” said Marc Laliberte, President, Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario. “I would like to acknowledge and congratulate the City of Ottawa and Ottawa Tourism on their commendable leader-

ship and commitment to actively participating in reconciliation.” The agreement would see Ottawa host the 2021 Ontario Indigenous Summer Games and the 2021 and 2023 Masters Indigenous Games. The agreement however, goes well beyond major sporting events and Games. The partnership also outlines support for ISWO’s youth leadership program, ‘Standing Bear’ and the Urban Indigenous Sport Strategy, in addition to the full gamut of ISWO events, camps, programs and workshops. “Ottawa Tourism is excited to welcome the Ontario Indigenous Summer Games in 2021 and the Masters Indigenous Games in 2021 and 2023

Charities Aid Foundation of America (CAF America). “At Nike, we believe kids aren’t meant to sit still, they’re made to play. The N7 Fund focuses on helping Native American

and Aboriginal youth get active so they can reach their greatest potential,” said Jorge Casimiro, Nike Vice President of Global Community Impact. “It’s an honor to support organizations that are committed to improving their communities, addressing some of the greatest challenges that these young people face, such as diabetes, obesity, suicide and low graduation rates. By harnessing the power of sport as a unifying force, we believe Native and Aboriginal youth can unleash the power of their generation.” Today, the Nike N7

These events are an important opportunity to celebrate and to learn about Indigenous culture, as well as an opportunity for Indigenous people from around the world to discover the warm hospitality of our region, which has been the traditional territory of the Algonquin people for over ten thousand years,” said Michael Crockatt, President and CEO, Ottawa Tourism. The City of Ottawa says it is build relationships with the surrounding Algonquin communities — Pikwaknagan and Kitigan Zibi – as well as with all First Nation, Métis and Inuit Peoples living in the Ottawa area. In February 2018, Ottawa City Council approved an action

plan to respond to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s 94 Calls to Action to redress the legacy of residential schools and advance reconciliation. This, the city says, is all important steps in continuing the City of Ottawa and the Indigenous community’s joint journey towards reconciliation. “We recognize and respect the cultural diversity that First Nations, Inuit and Métis people bring to the City of Ottawa,” said Jim Watson, Mayor of Ottawa. “We are excited to have been selected by ISWO to help develop the Urban Indigenous Sport Strategy, as well as to host these prestigious Games over the next few years, which will act as a catalyst for reconciliation

in our community.” “For us as Indigenous Peoples, sport is a way of life, it is embedded in our traditions and is medicine for our mind, body and spirit,” said Chief Kirby Whiteduck, Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation. “This agreement will bring more opportunities to our youth and our communities, while giving hope, inspiring the next generation and celebrating who we are and the history of our Peoples. We look forward to welcoming youth and athletes, not only from across Ontario, but from around the world, to our land, the ancestral territory of the Algonquin, a gathering place for Indigenous peoples for millennia.”

bones were found at a construction site where a church is being built. He said the bones are believed to have been buried in the 1800's and were en route to a secured facility with the unnamed archaeological firm. Stewart says some time between Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, someone allegedly

broke into the company's parked vehicle and made off with the banker's box containing the bones, a power tool and a cellphone charger. He says those responsible for the theft may not have realized what they took and might have discarded the remains.

In Memoriam

Clark Wythe In Memoriam Our family circle has been broken, A link gone from our chain; But though we’re parted for a while, We know we’ll meet again. Some day we hope to meet you, Some day, we know not when, We shall meet in a better land And never part again. We shall meet with many a loved one That was torn from our embrace; We shall listen to their voices, And behold them face to face. Sunshine passes, shadows fall, Love’s remembrance outlasts all. Lovingly remembered and never forgotten “90” by your sisters and brothers: Sue & Joe, Jackie, Elvis, Bonnie, Dice n Greg. Missing you so much. Till we meet again, dear brother
