Our Sustenance Farmer’s Market takes off

By TRT staff

SIX NATIONS – Our Sustenance Farmer’s Market kicked off the official opening of its outdoor season earlier this month and saw a great turnout.

The event brought out a lot of community members during Community Awareness Week interested in the market and what is going to be available throughout this upcoming season. Healthy Roots also held an event.

“The Our Sustenance program houses the Farmer’s Market, the greenhouse, with workshops and education, a newly started market garden where produce will be coming fresh from the field right to market this summer,” said Adrianne Lickers, manager of Our Sustenance.

The market has been operating since 2011 and there is always room for growth at its location beside Big Six Gas at 2676 Fourth Line.

“There is also the food forest, herb gardens, the

apothecary, apiary and the community garden,” said Lickers. “We always welcome new vendors at the market and it’s a great place to share the things you create. A vendor spot is just $5 per week. The outdoor Farmer’s Market will run every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. right to Thanksgiving weekend October 7. Come and see us.”

The market will be running again this Saturday June 3, but there will also be the Community Garden opening from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The community garden is at the end of Sunrise Court past the Grand River Employment and Training (GREAT) building.

“This Healthy Roots event is the annual garden opener, with our

mound gardens being prepared,” said Lickers.

“There will also be free giveaways, Healthy Roots snacks, and of course — plants, plants, plants!”

EDT asks incomplete applicants to resubmit for 2018

By TRT staff

SIX NATIONS – In February 2017, the Six Nations of the Grand River Economic Development Trust (EDT) announced that $1.5 million was slated for community investment in 2017.

As part of the announcement, the EDT stipulated that late or incomplete applications would not be accepted or reviewed. Applicants were highly encouraged to book face-to-face meetings with an EDT representative to review their submission prior to the April 20th deadline.

The Trustees also held two public information sessions, which were designed to help applicants fully understand the requirements and aid them through the application process.

This year, 26 applica-

tions were submitted to the EDT. Unfortunately, the majority of applications were missing required documentation, were late, or incomplete.

In total, only five completed Grassroots applications and one completed General application have been accepted for review by the EDT with a total combined request of slightly more than $76,000. All six completed applicants have been shortlisted and will make a presentation on June 6 or 7, successful applicants will be informed by June

20.

Funds that are not invested in the 2017 intake process will be deferred to the following year which will result in a higher community investment total for 2018. The 2018 EDT Call for Applications is slated to be released in August 2017. Recipients will have from Jan 1 to Dec 1, 2018 to utilize the funds. For more information please visit www.sndevcorp.ca/trust/.

Applicants who submitted late or incomplete applications are encouraged to resubmit in August for

community investment in 2018. Letters have been sent to each applicant to outline what was missing or incomplete from their submission.

“Moving forward, the EDT will be hosting additional face-to-face sessions with 2018 applicants with hopes that all documentation is included,” said Rachel Martin, EDT Chair. “These sessions will help applicants to understand the process and requirements, as well as provide them with an opportunity to ask questions.”

Camp Day is the one day each year when every penny from coffee sales at Tim Hortons Restaurants is donated to the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation. On Camp Day, when guests buy a coffee and participate in various fundraising activities, they will help send more than 14,000 kids on the camping adventure of a lifetime. Campers aged nine to 12 years attend a 10-day summer camp session or a seven-day winter camp session, at one of the Foundation’s six camps in Canada and the United States. Children are selected by Tim Hortons Restaurant Owners who work closely with local youth organizations and schools to identify kids who would most benefit from an experience at camp.

The Tim Horton Children’s Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 1974. Funding for the Foundation comes from Tim Hortons Camp Day, fundraising activities, special events, year-round public donations collected through counter and drive-thru coin boxes and other donations. Since 1975 more than 150,000 children have attended a Foundation camp at no cost to them or their families.

Mohawk Village Park to turn sorrow into peace

By Jim Windle EAGLES NEST/BRANTFORD – Restorations continue with the Mohawk Institute, a.k.a. Mush Hole, building as it transitions into a museum designed to preserve the evidence behind the residential school experiment which systematically robbed generations of Onkwehonwe children of their language, culture and sometimes even their families.

But there is another part of this story that several former residents of the infamous school have been working towards and have been seeking funding.

It is called the Mohawk Village Memorial Park project and has already received $150,000 last year and another $150,000 this year from the Six Nations Elected Council to begin phase one of the $2.5 million, multi-phased project.

When complete it will run from Mohawk Street to behind the girls’ side of the Mush Hole grounds.

“We want to put in

A new park is being planned near the Mohawk Institute, Brantford's Residential school. The park is being implemented by actual survivors. SUBMITTED IMAGE something more positive to help counter so many bad memories,” says Project Chair Roberta Hill. “We though, as survivors, we need something beautiful and peaceful.”

According to their mission statement, the board is to promote “the development and maintenance of the Mohawk Village Memorial Park, to honour the children who attended the Mohawk Institute Indian Residential School”.

Phase 1 is to remove dead and dying trees and shrubs from around the grounds and the orchard and to strip and remove the top-soil from the area to be included in the footprint of the park. The front entrance to the main driveway to the school and the Woodland Cultural Museum is to be redesigned as well.

There have been legends throughout the years that remains of dead chil-

dren were buried at the roots of these old apple trees. The removal of the top-soil could either confirm or put to rest these rumours. Although that is not the ambition of the group, it would be an inevitable result of the work.

“We know there may be some who may not understand why we are doing this,” admits the Hill sisters who say they will explain the project further should anyone have con-

Members of the board of directors of the Mohawk Village Memorial Park project look over the area their $2.5 million proposed Memorial Park will be located. It will be on the girls side of the former Mohawk Institute, aka Mush Hole, from Mohawk Street to behind the school building. The project was conceived and started by sisters Roberta and Dawn Hill, both Mush Hole Survivors. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE cerns.

Their hope is to offer a space for personal healing, or to prepare people’s spirits before they go through the Mush Hole school should they wish, or as a place for spiritual recovery upon leaving the Museum.

Covered barbecue stations will also be part of the allure.

It is to be built on the girls’ side of the grounds after removing the apple orchard, which served as

a constant frustration for hungry Mush Hole kids.

They were forced to harvest the crop under close supervision to ensure none of the children “stole” one. If caught, there would be severe punishment doled out to the offender.

“Those are some of the memories Roberta and her sister Dawn Hill are trying to help erase by repurposing that space into a memorial park with beautiful quiet places for introspec-

tion, prayer or just a nice quiet place to read or to relax,” says Dawn.

The Mohawk Village Memorial Park is a federally registered not-forprofit organization under the covering of a volunteer Board of Directors chaired

by Mush Hole survivor, Roberta Hill. Her sister Dawn Hill is secretary/treasurer, with board members Sherlene Bomberry, Beverly Albrecht and Shelly Clark.

Most are Mush Hole survi-

vors or multigenerational survivors.

The board sees the project as a fulfillment of one aspect of the Truth and Reconciliation Committee Recommendations.

“There are still a lot of people beginning to learn about the residential schools,” says Roberta Hill.

“One article recommends commemoration, and that’s what this Park is all about. The Cultural Centre is restoring the building and preserving the building, but this is one way of drawing in people, and there is a lot of people who feel bad about what happened here. This is a good

5 starting point, I think.”

The architectural firm of Cedar Springs submitted the design that most expressed the look, feel and mood of the space and received the contract to oversee the six-phase project.

Phase 2 includes the leveling of the grounds, asphalt walkways, 10 inch culverts, pavestone and concrete walkways, Bases for Six Nations monuments at some later date, and pavestone for the projected pavilion.

Phase 3 will be the installation of the pond and bonfire area, and Phase 4 will see the structures and

footbridges built and the reforestation of the area, and other finishing touches.

In Phase 5 of the project the site amenities and playground structures are to be built, including a lookout and music performance area.

Phase 6 of the multiyear project is when the signage, sculptures, carvings, solar/wind lighting washrooms and a well will be installed.

OPINION

Letters to the Editor

All the good

EDITORIAL BY JONATHAN GARLOW Canadians are probably tired of hearing about the horror of residential schools and are getting uncomfortable.

Everytime you turn on the news now there are increasingly worse stories about the suffering the happened in those child prisons.

It has almost been ten years since The Canadian government formally apologized for the major role they played in the implementation of cultural genocide through the torture and brainwashing of innocent children.

Just a few days ago PM Trudeau mentioned to the Vicar of Christ in Rome that he should apologize for the schools the Catholic church designed and implemented. Reports say the Pope was "open to the idea."

Soon they will destroy all of the residential records and maybe Canadians will forget about residential school even was. They probably would like to.

Canadian Senator Lynn Beyak says we should focus on the fact that Canada's residential schools did "some good" according to her. Beyak was even on the Senate’s committee on Aboriginal Peoples until she revealed her racism. Sadly, she probably doesn't even understand the depravity of her comments.

While she is at it, the optimistic Senator should urge us to examine the "good" that came out of slavery, the holocaust, or maybe aparteid in South Africa.

Beyak probably meant that she is glad we learned mathematics but it is obvious from her statements that she has no idea what we sacrficed to get it.

Let's just say it wasn't worth it.

And thats the problem with celebrating Canada's 150th birthday. Canada committed theft and murder of the highest degree possible.

We've survived through 150 years of a specific type of racism that was created to remove us from our land. This year I will personally celebrate that the colonizers failed because we are still alive here on our Six Nations Territory and we will never die.

Keep letters short, preferably under 300 words and in response to an article in the Two Row Times. Letters will be edited for grammar and length. The opinions within letters to the editor are those of the writer and not necessarily those of the Two Row Times.

I was in the Cobourg Branch of CIBC on May 17 to cash my tax refund when I noticed a flyer promoting some coin to celebrate this Canada 150 celebration.

I was shocked. The caption read “Celebrate 150 years of our home and native land”.

As an indigenous person I was shocked, upset, then angry. CIBC would not exist

op-ed

but for the largesse of indigenous people who willingly shared access to land of resources. Today more than 60 per cent of Canada’s land exists on unceded indigenous land.

It is not “your land”. Canada took control of this land using acts of genocide.

There was nothing cultural about it. It was full out genocide. All five of the measures in the UN Convention on Genocide (1948) were contravened. They are still being contravened today.

Article 2 of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, defines genocide as ... any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as

such: 1 – Killing members of the group; 2 – Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; 3 – Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; 4 – Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; 5 – Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

fronted or spoken to about issues such as cultural appropriation, racism and stereotyping.

The term was keychained to certain caucasian people and their low emotional tolerance for discussing topics of racism

by Dr. Robin DiAngelo in a 2011 article. She wrote her definition as “a state when even a minimum amount of racial stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves”.

But it isn't really the Canadians at fault.

Within systems that have afflicted us as indigenous people for years lies not only the cause of our intergenerational trauma, but also intergenerational and systemic racism. This means that much of the cultural appropriation, racism and stereotyping isn't recognized by “Canadian” people as being so, because they aren't systemically taught to regard it as such.

To make us invisible and not acknowledge our gift to you of accommodation on this land is racist by definition. To call it your native land is just a lie. It is not.

I had hoped the bank I have dealt with for 35 years

would do better in these days of reconciliation.

I could close my accounts and turn in my cards. That would hurt me more than you and you would not even notice. Rather, just do the right thing, apologize to indigenous people within Canada. Get rid of the Canada 150 propaganda. Get all your senior management teams to read the TRC Report and the 94 Calls to Action. Formulate action plans to implement the Calls to Action pertinent to the bank. Provide cultural sensitivity training at all levels of the bank. Ó:nen ki wáhi.

Cultural desensitization

By Jonathan Garlow and Chezney Martin

Others say White Fragility is the sensitivity and corresponding defensiveness that Euro-Canadian settlers showcase when being con-

Volume 4, Issue 43

This frustrates many of us that are culturally and emotionally connected to our practices, ancestors and belief systems to no end.

This also makes us point it out when they are perpetuating systemic ignorance, and get called racists.

Nobody wants to be called a racist.

Therefore, the term “racist” is highly associated with immorality, and when CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

TWO ROW TIMES

MAY 31ST, 2017

From the cheap seats:

Ducks out. On to plan “C” Once the Maple Leafs disappoint us hard-core fans every spring, a lot of us give up on hockey for the rest of the year. This year I chose a plan “B” following Brandon Montour and the Anaheim Ducks. What a ride, but plan “B” is over too. Do I just give up on hockey until next “maybethis-year” season begins?

Not this time. Since I have no vested interest in either team, I can just watch good hockey without getting too depressed if the wrong team wins.

That will be my plan “C”.

Being a Leaf fan, I am usually find myself rooting for the underdog, and with this in mind, I am with Nashville. This is a Cinderella team having a Cinderella season, so why not. They have never won the Cup before and I think it would be good for hockey in that southern market. But don’t follow me. I am usually exactly wrong in my predictions. *** What a great celebration of lacrosse last weekend at the Confederacy Challenge Lacrosse Tournament. Sure there were a few blow-outs but all-inall there were a lot of great plays and exciting goals and saves.

There were so many

games at so many arenas, it was impossible for me to follow it all, so I thought I’d give it another week before we publish the results and pics from the tournament. Next week I can allot myself more space for the story and more pictures.

I apologize for this, but in the long run, I think the kids would be better served if I spent more time on the piece. Watch for that.

OK, so lets take a look at where Six Nations team will likely be in the standings later this summer.

This is based simply on what I have seen so far, how deep the bench is, and how they have been stacking up so far.

As said before, Six Nations always has a good start to the season most players having played year round in some league or another. That means they are usually already and in game shape when camp opens. Game shape also means game smart and in game rhythm.

But as the season progresses, the other teams begin to catch up and the second half is usually tougher than the first half.

Lets start with the Jr. C Warriors. Up until having their arce handed to them

in Brantford earlier this week, the Warriors have been nothing short of impressive with so many young and talented players not only winning, but having a lot of fun doing it.

From what I have seen so far, their biggest foe this year is going to be the penalty box. Along with all of this adrenaline sparking around this team, comes the need to control it.

This is something that seems to be getting worse rather than better for the Warriors and could become their Achilles heel.

Outside of that, the talent is impressive and fun to watch. I’d be surprised if the Warriors didn’t make a serious run for the Jr. C Championship this year.

The Jr. B Rebels are my favorites so far to win the OLA Jr. B title, but I will reserve my predictions if they can be Founders Cup material. Like the Warriors, discipline has been in short supply recently.

Personally, that’s what I attribute to this week’s loss to the Brantford Warriors in Brantford.

BTW – Layne Smith is for real and could easily be an NLL draft pic right from Jr. B, but he too has a few more disciplinary steps to take before that happens. Right now he is

the big fish in a small pond and some might think he should be playing Jr. A. But it takes a lot more than talent alone and Layne is still young enough to make those adjustments.

He is probably the most talented scorer on this year’s Rebels team.

The Jr. A Arrows have not come out of the blocks without a stumble or two, but have displayed a depth of bench strength that gives me optimism for a contender in the Jr. A ranks this year.

The Arrows are a strong team and although the season is still very young, I like what I see so far. *** The Sr. B Rivermen are stacked to defend last year’s President’s Cup win with several elder statesmen of the game like Cory Bomberry, Roger Vyse and so many others. The Sr. B loop is not very strong in comparison, but there are a few teams that can give them headaches, but only a few.

The second place, 4-3 Can/Am Slash are in a good position to make a final thrust when the time comes. They are 4-3 chasing the first place Native Sons who are 7-0 to date.

Desensitization continued from page 6 someone is called it they can feel as though their entire character is being attacked. So, it becomes a never-ending cycle of people of colour condemning Canadians for things they might not even realize that they're doing – leading to more defensiveness and misunderstandings.

Canadians are totally in the dark about real indigenous issues. This is because they are systemically ignorant; not white supremacists, nor are they immoral, and they might not even be “white”. They are simply people that have had no prior contact or responsibility to understand what systemic racism is, nor an understanding of why cultural appropriation is bad.

There is also the fact that many of these same types of people don't have to encounter race-based stress because they are the majority — not the minority and have been so for a very long time.

Many as well have been recorded in studies to experience “ethnicity envy”, where they envy

other cultures because they don't even recognize themselves as having culture or being a part of a culture.

This means that many “white” people don't even think about what it means to be white or try to define it because they think of themselves as normal, or baseline in society.

It's called cultural blindness and North Americans are totally affected by it.

Then there are those that were simply raised to be prejudiced against other races, but many Canadian people just don't know any better in regards to systemic ignorance and racism.

Just like many of us don't know that “hip-hip, hurray!” was a term German Nazi's used when taking down a Jewish-owned building.

So, our fight isn't with our neighbours as individuals in battling systemic racism — it is and always will be against the systems that perpetuate ignorance and cultural de-sensitization.

CHRT says Jordan’s Principle applies

By TRT staff OTTAWA – On May 26 the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal (CHRT) has again ruled that Canada has yet to comply with previous orders to implement Jordan’s Principle, which is a child-first principle that every First Nation child should have access to the same government services as all Canadian children.

The Tribunal has clarified that if a province provides a health or social service, the federal government should fund the service immediately, and that the federal government should consider providing other services to advance First Nation’s children’s equality.

In addition, the CHRT has ruled that Jordan’s Principle applies to all children on and off-reserve; it is not limited to children with disabilities; and it is not limited to health services, but

also includes dental and mental health, physiotherapy, special education, speech therapy, and so on.

In response to today’s decision, Dr. Cindy Blackstock, Executive Director of the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society (Caring Society), is calling on Prime Minister Trudeau to intervene to ensure the Tribunal’s orders are finally met.

“It is vital that the Prime Minister personally intervene to ensure INAC and Health Canada fully comply with Jordan's Principle,” said Blackstock.

“Today’s ruling includes evidence from the Tribunal hearing that shows the deaths of at least two children are related to Canada's non-compliance. It should not take four Tribunal orders and counting to get Canada to treat First Nations children lawfully and equitably.”

To date, despite the

Tribunal’s rulings, the Government of Canada has been applying Jordan’s Principle only to children with disabilities living on reserve.

Canada has also failed to live up to its own motion in the House of Commons from 2016 to immediately inject an additional $155 million into the child welfare system. To date, it is estimated that only an additional $67 million has been allocated nationally.

“Jordan’s Principle was passed unanimously by the House of Commons back in 2007 to ensure that First Nation children were not to be denied or delayed health and social services,” said AIAI Deputy Grand Chief Denise Stonefish Chair of the COO Chiefs Committee on Social Services. “Last November, I was in attendance when the House of Commons again unanimously passed an NDP motion to immediately provide

the additional $155 million. This has yet to happen.

“In this day and age of Reconciliation, Canada must comply with all CHRT rulings. I want to remind Canada that the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action are strongly focused on equality in child health and welfare,” said Regional Chief Isadore Day. “Our children must no longer be left behind, must no longer suffer needlessly due to bureaucratic denial and delays. Now is the time to allow our children and their families the basic human right to health and welfare enjoyed by all Canadians.”

Regional Chief Isadore Day says it’s time to put reconciliation into action First Nation children and youth are dying senseless and needless deaths in ever increasing numbers.

The latest incident was the discovery of a 14-year-old child’s body last Thursday in a Thunder Bay river, where far too many of our peoples have died mysteriously over the past decade. We need both Ontario and Canada to act upon last year’s recommendations from the Thunder Bay Inquest into the deaths of seven First Nation youth.

Last August, our Political Confederacy sent a letter to INAC Minister Carolyn Bennett requesting that “immediate steps”

be taken to implement the recommendations that fall under Canada’s responsibility. Quite simply, end the root causes of poverty and despair.

Provide the necessary supports for our children to remain in their communities.

The letter stated: “The jury recognized that First Nations children and youth require holistic support inside and outside the classroom and from an early age. First Nations children often have additional needs and challenges arising from the legacies CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

of residential schools, government neglect, assimilation policies, and other aspects of colonialism past and present. To provide the necessary support, the jury recommended new programs to ensure that every First Nations child has comprehensive access to preschool education (recommendation 18), cultural and traditional activities (recommendation 19), and extracurricular programs (recommendation 20). It also recommended a process to eliminate the gaps in services such as health, social services, and housing (recommendation 24). In each of these areas, the jury recommended a robust program to identify the gaps, develop targets and timelines, and publicly monitor the results (recommendation 24).”

youth and elders have participated in roundtables held this spring. The four priority areas in regard to policing are: 1 – Enhance accountability and strengthen civilian governance of police services boards as well as ensure police oversight bodies are effective and have clear mandates.

2 – Improve interactions between police and vulnerable Ontarians, including enhancing frontline responses to those in crisis.

3 – Clarify police duties, modernize training programs and deliver services using a range of public safety personnel.

4 – Develop a provincial framework for First Nations policing to ensure equitable and culturally responsive policing for the province's First Nations communities.

True Reconciliation requires action. We

need Ontario and Canada to work with us now.

Achieving prosperous First Nations communities requires investment now, to ensure a solid foundation for growth is created. This foundation includes proper infrastructure, such as clean water, healthy homes and schools. It also includes appropriate social, health and educational supports to ensure personal growth, so that our citizens are able to become who they were intended to be as First Nations people. Every child deserves the right to a prosperous future.

We extend to all levels of government — First Nations, Ontario, Canada and municipalities, in a four cornered approach, through our work as leaders, in securing a safe and secure future for our children.

Pope appeared open to the idea of an apology, Trudeau says THE CANADIAN PRESS VATICAN CITY — Canadians are anxious to reconcile with Indigenous Peoples, Justin Trudeau described telling Pope Francis on Monday as he asked the pontiff to apologize for the role the Catholic Church played in the tragedy of residential schools.

The Pope seemed open to the idea, the prime minister said as he related the broad strokes of their private conversation at the Vatican. ``He reminded me that his entire life has been dedicated to supporting marginalized people in the world,'' Trudeau said after he arrived back in Rome.

Pope Francis also expressed his enthusiasm for working with the prime minister and the Canadian bishops on finding a way forward on the issue of an apology, as recommended by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

The commission included the demand for a papal apology — to survivors, their families and communities — as one of the 94 recommendations in its report on the dark 120-year history and tragic legacy of residential schools.

Trudeau, who has promised to act on each recommendation, had previously committed to speaking to the Pope about an apology, but pointed out he could

Justin and Francis had a new discussion on Monday. BUZZFEED PHOTO not compel the pontiff to agree.

On Monday, Trudeau said he invited the Pope to visit Canada in the coming years, and thanked him for the global leadership he has shown on climate change. ``We talked about how important it is to both highlight the scientific basis of protecting our planet, with the moral and ethical obligation to lead and to build a better future for all people on this earth,'' he said.

Trudeau, a religious Catholic, suggested the meeting gave him some spiritual fulfillment. ``I also had an opportunity to have a deeply personal and wide-ranging, thoughtful conversation with the leader of my own faith.''

Just before 12:30 p.m., the media was ushered in to the Pope's private quarters, then quickly hustled out. At 1:04 p.m., a bell rang, signalling the end of Trudeau's private audi-

ence. The Prime Minister's Office called it a 42-minute meeting.

U.S. President Donald Trump, who like Trudeau had been in Brussels for the NATO leaders' meeting and in Sicily for the G7 summit, met the Pope for about 30 minutes last week.

Afterward, Trudeau introduced his wife, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, to the Pope along with officials from the PMO. The prime minister presented the Pope with a dictionary in French and Montagnais — spoken by the Innu people in Labrador and northern Quebec — written by a French Jesuit in the 17th century.

Pope Francis, through an interpreter, said it was the custom of Jesuits to produce such dictionaries when they travelled, to enable them to communicate with local communities.

The prime minister also gave the Pope a set of CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

Pope apology? continued from page 12 books known as the Jesuit Relations, which Trudeau called ``an essential tool for historians to understand the early years and stories of Jesuit missionaries documenting the origins of Canada.'' ``This is a rare edition that we got from the Jesuits in Canada,'' he said.

In return, the Pope gave the prime minister a gold medal marking the fourth year of his pontificate, an autographed copy of his message for World Peace Day and three papal letters about family, the environment and evangelism.

A readout from the PMO described ``an extended conversation'' on the need for leadership on issues like climate change and mass migration, and a discussion about stronger relations between Canada and the Holy See. A statement from the Vatican said that in light of what came out of the G7 summit, their ``cordial'' discussions also touched

on international issues, particularly the Middle East and areas of conflict.

In 2009, former pope Benedict did express ``sorrow'' on behalf of the Catholic Church for the ``deplorable conduct'' by some members in their treatment of indigenous children in residential schools.

Not good enough, said the commission, especially since it was not made in public, recommending an apology similar to one Benedict delivered in Ireland in 2010 to victims of abuse by the church.

Perry Bellegarde, national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, said he remains hopeful the Pope will come through with a formal apology. ``Pope Francis has a lot of influence on world thinking and is a very, very popular pope,'' Bellegarde said. ``He's a very influential individual and to have him come would be a ... huge undertaking on that road to reconcili-

ation.''

NDP indigenous affairs critic Romeo Saganash, a residential school survivor, dismissed the issue as a ``public relations stunt'' that would do nothing to help indigenous communities wracked by housing, clean water and suicide crises.

On Tuesday, Trudeau will continue his official visit to Italy, where he will meet Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni and deliver an address to parliamentarians.

Trudeau is promoting cultural and economic ties between the two countries, including the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement between Canada and the European Union.

A spokesperson said Trudeau had a private drink with former prime minister Matteo Renzi on Monday evening. In April, Renzi regained the leadership of the Democratic Party.

By TRT staff BRANTFORD – The Woodland Cultural Centre (WCC), a leader in the field of First Nations museum exhibitions, artistic endeavors, research facilities and cultural programming, presented the 42nd Annual First Nations Art exhibition curated by Gyeho Thomas and Carley Gallant on May 27, 2017.

Established in 1975, First Nations Art (FNA) is one of the longest running annual exhibits that provide a space for established and emerging indigenous artists to exhibit and sell their work in a gallery setting. The exhibition runs May 27 through July 28, 2017 at the WCC and will bring together artists from across Turtle Island.

Quinn Smallboy, from Moose Factory, Ont., has been chosen as this year’s Featured Artist.

His solo exhibition Rivers of Thought will explore “common symbols of indigenous cultures and practices” as he explains, investigating indigenous art with Western ideologies.

More than 120 works were submitted to this year’s FNA making the jury process one of the largest

yet. The WCC would like to thank all the artists who submitted their works to FNA 2017. Without the

support of local artists and communities, the centre could not continue the tradition of First Nations Art.

Six Nations Artist Semiah Smith constructed a 3D portrait of Sitting Bull and submitted it to the showing and it sold before the night was over. Smith recently completed the one-year Visual and Creative Arts program at Sheridan College.

The 3D portrait was one of her assignments from the program.

“I chose to do Sitting Bull because he has a very recognizable face,” said Smith. “I also know he has done a lot of great things and I really respect him.

I’m hoping that I can create a short series of 3D portraits of people with similar importance as Sitting Bull.”

Battle of Warriors goes Brantford’s way

By Jim Windle

BRANTFORD – In the Battle of the Warriors, Brantford handed Six Nations Jr. C Warriors its first loss of the season, 13-11, at the Brantford and District Civic Centre, Sunday afternoon. Last Thursday Six Nations traveled to Fergus to play the Thistles and returned with a 12-9 win.

Brantford is now 5-3 and in second place in the West Division, four points behind first place Six Nations with Oakville close on the heels of both.

Six Nations got out of the blocks first on Sunday, scoring the game’s first four goals, but the second half of the period belonged to Brantford who erased that lead by the end of the period, even at 4-4. Discipline, or lack thereof, on behalf of the Six Nations Warriors became a bigger foe than the Brantford team itself as some Six Nations Warriors blurred the line between tough and stupid.

Penalties are a part of the game, some are good, like if a penalty will spoil an opponent’s scoring chance or to back up your teammates from time to time. But for some it’s a matter of anger management, and if coach Jay Smith can’t curb his team’s enthusiasm, as it were, penalties could become the Brantford Warriors biggest enemy this year.

In the third period alone, when Six Nations

Marshall Powless No. 93, scored one and assisted on three in the Six Nations Warriors first loss of the season at the hands of the Brantford Warriors at the Brantford Civic Centre Sunday afternoon. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE should have been focused on getting back into the game, down 9-8, Six Nations drew 28 minutes in aggressive penalties while Brantford drew 16 minutes. Brantford took advantage of the situation to outscore Six Nations 4-3 and take the 13-11 win and hand Six Nations its first loss of the season.

A 12-goal first period in Fergus was evenly dis-

bursed at six goals each after an exciting first 20 minutes.

The Warriors began to up open in the second as Cecil Monture began his hat-trick march at 2:10 of the second period, to which he added his second of the game at 4:59.

Dean Sealey interrupted the Warriors march with a powerplay goal for Fergus at 16:57, but less than a minute later, Riley Ja-

Sit-N-Bull Gas & Variety 3783 6th Line, Ohsweken, ON N0A 1M0 (905) 765-2356

mieson made it 9-7.

Monture made good on his hat-trick at 3:45 of the third and although Fergus pushed back with two third period goals, Six Nations kept the pressure on with powerplay goals scored by Jaxon Martin and Marshall Powless for the 12-9 Warriors win.

An undisciplined third period marred this game as it did in Brant-

ford, with a huge list of penalties of aggression and fights including a brawl as the final buzzer sounded between Fergus’ Wyatt Casey and Six Nations’ Sam Gowland.

Fergus scored four goals on 15 powerplay opportunities while Six Nations went 2 for 7.

Jackson Miller was in the nets for the Warriors and earned the win.

The Six Nations War-

riors will face the Fergus Thistles again this Thursday, June 1, while second place Brantford does battle with Oakville. Friday night the Warriors take it back on the road to Whitby before bouncing over to Wilmott, Sunday afternoon, June 4, to face the Wild at 3 p.m.

Devils scare Rebels in Wallaceburg

By Jim Windle WALLACEBURG – The Six Nations Rebels got a scare from the Wallaceburg Red Devils at the Wallaceburg Arena on Sunday afternoon, but a three-goal rally late in the third period fired the come-from-behind Rebels win by a narrow one goal margin.

Layne Smith scored four, including a penalty shot awarded him with 15 minutes remaining in the game to secure the win. In 14 games played so far this season, Smith has scored 49 goals and

22 assists for 71 points, averaging just over five points per game to lead the Rebels offence.

The Rebels and Devils kept the referees busy with Six Nations called for 54 minutes in penalties on 19 infractions while Wallaceburg drew 30 minutes on 11 infractions.

Josh Miller had a big game with a seven-point outing by way of three goals and four assists, as did Gates Abrams with two goals and two assists. Riley Miller scored once and assisted on three.

Dustin and Daniel Hill shared the goaltending duties in the Rebels’ win as they advanced to a 13-1 season so far this year to lead the division and the league.

In Hamilton Friday night, the Rebels tripled up on the Bengals 18-6 with Layne Smith accounting for six goals and four assists for a 10-point game.

Six Nations took a 7-4 first period lead, held a 9-5 lead after 40 minutes and unloaded a 9-1 third period for easy the 18-6 win.

A third period dust-

up between Hamilton’s Liam Nesbitt and Rebels’ Tyler Foxe-MacKenzie resulted in Foxe-MacKenzie being assessed a five-minute Fighting major, a five-minute Instigator major, and three 10-minute fighting misconducts. Six Nations’ Tyler Foxe-MacKenzie was assessed the same, all at 11:30.

Friday, June 2, the 8-3 Windsor Clippers visit the ILA for an 8 p.m. start.

The Clippers lead the Far West Division with an 8-3-1 record so far.

Arrows sharpening

By Jim Windle K I TCHEN ER/ WAT ERLOO – They were scoring in bunches at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena (ILA) Sunday night as the Six Nations Jr. A Arrows chewed away at the KW Braves, slowly devouring them, 10-8.

McCoy Abrams scored at 1:39 and again at 7:28, followed by Austin Staats’ powerplay marker at 8:47. Then it was the Braves’ turn, notching the next three to even the score at 3-3 late in the frame. Abrams added his third of the period at 17:24, which was erased

by KW’s Damon Currie.

Jake McNabb completed the first period for the Arrows to hold a 5-4 lead heading into the second.

The Braves evened it at 1:46 of the period and took the lead back with a powerplay goal at 3:30.

A powerplay goal by Arrows’ Cory Highfield opened the gates for Six Nations shooters in the

last part of the middle frame, followed by unchallenged goals by Josh Jubenville, Jake McNabb, Owen MacDonald, and Cody Ward, the last two 10 seconds apart.

The score was 10-6 entering the third. While the Arrows tightened up the defence in front of Doug Jamieson in goal, the Braves turned it on and threw all they had at the Six Nations net but were only able to pull back two goals from the Arrows lead before the game ended 10-8 for Six Nations.

Last Tuesday the Jr. A Arrows lost 10-6 to the slow starting Peterborough Lakers at the Peterborough Memorial Arena.

Going into the game, the Arrows were in second place and the Lakers in second from last in the 11-team league.

The Lakers took advantage of the Arrows bus legs and took a 4-2 first period lead. Scoring for the Arrows were Josh

Jubenville and Jeremy Bomberry. The Lakers continued to put pressure of the Arrows in the second period outscoring them 4-1 for a two period score of 8-3 for Peterborough. McCoy Abrams accounted for the Arrows goal from Jeremy Bomberry.

Although the Arrows came back in the third they were only able to move the score slightly to a 10-6 final score with the Lakers robbing the Arrows of the two points.

Neither Arrows goalies, Doug Jamieson or Briley Miller were able to shut down Lakers shooters on this given day as they shared the duties in goal.

The Six Nations Arrows next target will be the Burlington Chiefs, Wednesday, May 31, in Burlington at 8 p.m. Sunday, June 4, the Arrows host the Barrie Lakeshores at the ILA for a 7 p.m. start.

Rivermen unbeaten after seven games

By Jim Windle

RIVERMEN – A pair of goals and two assists scored by Roger Vyse, and single goals by Danton Miller, Greg Longboat Jr., Dwayne Porter Murray Porter and Cory Bomberry were all needed in preserving a close 7-6 win over the Brooklin Merchants, Saturday night at the Luther Vipond Memorial Arena.

Vyse opened and closed the scoring including the game winner. At 6:18, Vyse completed a set up by Gregg Longboat for the 1-0 goal. But the Merchants got that back at 15:43 with a goal by Josh Finley.

It was a wide open second period that saw eight goals in total, five of them owned by Six Nations for

a two period score of 6-4 for the Rivermen. Luke Cootes netted Brooklin’s fourth goal at 19:59.

The Merchants fought back and evened the score at 13:23 of the third, and exactly one minute later Vyse score the game winner as Chase Martin rung up the win in the Six Nations net.

There were several aggression style penalties and game misconducts along the way underscoring the fact that the Brooklin Merchants and the Six Nations Rivermen are certainly not best of friends and the bad blood spilled over as the final buzzer gave Six Nations the win.

Sunday, the Rivermen took another two points from the Kitchener-Waterloo Velocity in Water-

loo. The game was over after the first period as the Rivermen took a 10-3 lead and added four more in the second for a two period score of 14-4. Tom Montour scored the only goal of the third period with his fourth of the game while adding an assist. Thomas Oakly (3G), Kyle Smith (1G,3A), Murray Porter (1G,3A), Marcus Elvin (2G,3A). Rodd Squire Jr. recorded a goal and three assists.

With the most recent wins, the Rivermen are 7-0, on the season to top the league standings.

Friday June 2, the Rivermen get another kick at the Velocity in Waterloo, before hosting the Owen Sound North Stars at the Gaylord Powless Arena at 4 pm.

Native Sisters place ninth overall in world softball TRT staff North American Native Sisters (NANS) recently competed in the World Masters Games in Auckland New Zealand, April 21 to 30. The team competed in the Recreational Softball division ages 45 and higher. Out of 24 teams the group placed ninth overall.

“Ninth overall in the world is a descent finish,” said Connie Powless. “We missed the medal round by one point — that was hard to swallow.”

Powless said it took a few games for the team to gel, and then they played awesome.

“Our team really had the skills to be in the medals round. We gelled too late. The tie in Round Robin was a deal breaker.

When we met the same team again in finals we dominated,” she said.

Although the team wasn’t as successful as they hoped to be in the tournament, Powless

said that the trip was an experience of a lifetime.

“We met so many amazing people and saw so many breathtaking views of New Zealand. If not for the support of our family, friends, and communities, our fundraising efforts would not have been so successful. To be able to travel and play the game we love at our age is amazing.”

The next World Masters Games will be held in 2021 in Japan.

Results: Game 1 Salish Nation: B.C. 10 – NANS 10 Game 2 Loss of Gravity: B.C. 8 – NANS 5.

Game 3 Subway Slugger: PEI 7 – NANS 6 Game 4 Alberta Crude: Alberta 8 – NANS 9 Game 5 Silver Bullets: Alberta 0 – NANS 16 Game 6 Papanui Shakers: New Zealand 1 – NANS 9 Game 7 Lockyer: Australia 2 – NANS 12 Game 8 Salish Nation: B.C. 2 – NANS 18

STEPHANIE JOLENE (GENERAL) RESTOULE APRIL 17, 1975-MAY 26, 2017

After a long, interesting and productive life, Mary ‘Kawennoktha’, ‘Penny’, ‘Pen’, ‘Mr Pen’ left us in her 89th year. Pen was a survivor of the Mush-hole that gave her a very poor formal education and trained her how to be a cleaning lady which she did for a short time. But her low quality of education and training at hands of the Mush-hole never stopped her! In her late twenties she went back to school to learn about Business Administration. She worked a number of years in Toronto, and in 1965 went on to work for the Six Nations Elected Council where she remained for 27 years. She once said that she really enjoyed her work at Council because she got to know so many of the Six Nations people and the employees of the many of the companies that did business with Council. She even liked most of the people at INAC! Pen will be missed by her Wednesday morning breakfast friends, the Wednesday Ohsweken Euchre gang and her Thursday Dummy Rummy friends. Pen will be very sorrowfully missed by daughter Claudine ‘Dicki’ VanEvery-Albert and her husband Gaetan ‘Gator’ Albert. Pen also leaves her much loved grandchildren and great grandchildren: granddaughter Caroline ‘Karenniyo’, her husband Seth ‘Kanenhariyo’ Lefort, their children Bineshiinh ‘Katsitsyanonwes’, Gezhii ‘Karonhyoroks’, Nimkii ‘Konwatsyenhiyohstha’, Wasnode ‘Anonnyatha’ and little Kaya’tyenens called ‘Jin’; granddaughter Jesee and her children Ava, Tresham and Kellar; grandson Phil and his daughter Carida. Pen will also be sadly missed by her sister Carolyn “Cao” Beaver and her son John, and nieces Pauline VanEvery and her family, and Alaina VanEvery and her girls. Pen also leaves her sister Jan Longboat, her sisters-in-law Marg Bloomfield and Helen Bloomfield, brothers-in-law Jerry Longboat and Roland Allison, and sister-in-law Kitty VanEvery. Aunt Pen will also be missed by her many nieces, nephews and cousins at Six Nations, Turtle Island and other parts of the world. She was predeceased by her husband Don Bloomfield, her parents Titus and Vera VanEvery, her siblings Hazel Hill and husband Dan, Doris Miller and husband Jim, Delores Littlewood and husband Dag, Jeanette Allison, and Sharon ‘Shin’ VanEvery, brother Alton and his wife Barbara, and brother Basil.

Honorary Pall Bearers are her friends and long-time neighbours Marion ‘Snooker’ Martin, Joan Greenbird, Judy Smith-Martin, Marlene Martin, Shirley Squire, Buggs Lavell & her Lodge Friend Lorraine Garlow.

Resting at Styres Funeral Home, 1798 4th Line Rd., Ohsweken after 4pm Monday. Evening Service 7pm.

Steph will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and many close friends. She will be resting at her aunt Pat’s 1505 2nd Line on Sunday, May 28th -Tuesday May 30th, 2017.

Thank You

Thank You

The family of the late Isabella “Gracie” King would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the many family, friends, student peers and members of our community and the surrounding communities. For all the beautiful flowers, to all that came to help prepare the food, to those that brought food and supplies, those that lent a shoulder to cry on and an ear to listen, all the beautiful memories of our dear darling daughter that were shared and remembered. To the moccasin makers and the dressmakers for making Gracie her beautiful dress.

To all the community members that came together to host the service, the songs, and to those that cooked and served the meal after we laid Gracie to rest. To South Coast Funeral Alternatives for their services. To the many businesses in the area that offered their condolences and support during this very difficult time.

Gracie had such an innocent pure soul that would light the way on the darkest of days. She had a beautiful voice that if you were lucky enough to hear her sing would melt your heart, her smile was stunning, her laugh contagious, her heart unbelievably huge, Gracie would offer a hand to anyone in need because she was pure at heart. To all that have helped our family in any way through this challenging time of our lives, every act of kindness will never be forgotten.

Thank you
