TORONTO — Police in Ontario could soon get more tools to search for missing people, such as the ability to track cellphones and enter a home or building to search for them.

Those are steps police are currently limited in taking unless there is evidence a crime has been committed.

A new Missing Persons Act is part of sweeping

changes to policing laws that Ontario introduced Thursday, including expanded oversight and the power to suspend officers without pay.

Community Safety and Correctional Services Minister Marie-France Lalonde said the new Missing Persons Act would allow police to respond more quickly and effectively when people go missing.

HONULULU — Opponents of a giant telescope planned for a sacred Hawaii mountaintop are appealing the state land board's approval of the project's construction permit.

An attorney representing the opposition filed the appeal with the state Supreme Court on Monday.

The construction permit for the Thirty Meter Telescope was granted in September. Opponents say it will desecrate the top of Mauna Kea — a land sacred to indigenous Hawaiians while supporters say it will provide educational and economic opportunities.

Possible new chamber found in Great Pyramid

By Jim Windle

EGYPT – Secrets were hidden within the Great Pyramid of Giza around 4500 years ago, the largest structure ever created

by Early Man. As of last week they may be more.

Nature, a reputable science journal, published a story last week that has the archaeological world abuzz. They announced the discovery of at least one large void space never accessed since the day it was hidden within the massive structure 4500 years ago. There has not been a discovery of this kind since the 19th Century.

Researchers made the discovery using the latest generation of ground penetrating electronic devices that accurately reads cosmic rays to penetrate the biggest of the pyramids.

Some Egyptologists are

not yet ready to accept the find as anything more than a possible waste pit for refuse from the construction of the main chamber. Others say the engineers of the pyramid structures built voids above chambers to reduce the weight above the burial chamber void as a counter balance.

The 30-foot void shows on the monitor as a cloudlike space about 30 feet above what is known as the Queens Chamber with the blessing of a very strict Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities.

“It’s the size of a 200-seater airplane, in the heart of the pyramid,” Mehdi Tayoubi of the ScanPyramids project told AFP of the discovery, published in science journal.

The non-invasive scan will not result in any invasive means of getting to the new chamber, but researchers would rather

The first major discovery about the Great Pyramid of Giza of since the 1800s was announced last week when a new stone penetrating technology detected a large passenger plain size void above the Queens Chamber, which was discovered centuries earlier. The discovery has the scientific world abuzz. FILE PHOTO wait until there is a technology that can literally see through thousands of tons of rock to see what, if anything, is inside.

"Even if it is a different team with the same technology," Ministry of Antiquities spokesman Mohamed Ismail insists. "Any intrusive technique is out

of the question."

Personally, he has his doubts.

"There is no scientific, archaeological or historical evidence that corroborates this," he said.

"If there is another burial chamber, there would have been an entrance to it."

RADIO 93.5 FM

www.jukasaradio.com

But if in fact it is a secret chamber of some sort, Ismail is not opposed to any further research and invites Egyptologists to input their opinions or evidence that may change his mind.

They are already responding with various theories about what the void is and why it was constructed.

The Great Pyramid of Giza was built during the rule of the Pharaoh Khufu, also known as Cheops, whose reign lasted from 2509 to 2483 B.C. It stands around 139 meters high and 230 meters wide, the largest of the pyramids.

Tourists enter the pyramid from a tunnel that was dug at the behest of Caliph al-Ma’mun around A.D. 820.

There has also been speculation about a possible chamber inside and beneath the Sphinx. At this time, there is no plan

to investigate those theories with this new Cosmic Ray technologies, but that day may come soon.

During one of his trances, the famed clairvoyant Edgar Cayce, who died in 1945, saw that refugees from the lost city of Atlantis buried their secrets in a hall of records under the Sphinx and that the hall would be discovered before the end of the 20th century. Well he missed the target date but some still believe the “prophetic vision.”

The Sphinx is only a stroll away from the great pyramids.

There is good reason for Egypt being as careful with their artifacts as they are. Since Napoleon, these national treasures have been destroyed or stolen by successive conquerors as well as homegrown black-market artifact thieves have given up many priceless artifacts.

OPINION

Is weed a mind-changer? Forgotten warriors not forgotten

By Nahnda Garlow Ontario residents will soon be sparking up legally.

This week the province announced the locations of its first legal cannabis retail stores — one is set to open doors in Hamilton next July.

What does that mean for Six Nations?

The colonial definition of cannabis as a drug began in 1908 with the “Opium Act”.

Weed was not added to the prohibition until 1923 with the introduction of the “Act to Prohibit the Improper Use of Opium and other Drugs”.

The prohibition was in response to a worldwide ban on opioids that cannabis got rolled into — pun intended.

Nevertheless, pot remained absolutely illegal in Canada for just over 75 years.

Later research and the work of advocates eventually brought the medical community to a place where cannabis was approved for prescription use in Canada in 2001.

Cannabis is prescribed in Canada to treat hundreds of ailments — with notable positive effects in patients with epilepsy, chronic pain and post traumatic disorders. It has even been prescribed and administered safely to paediatric cancer patients.

Facing our 2017 reality, in just eight months recreational cannabis will be locally legally available to community members over the age of 19.

So what’s a Rez to do? Do we allow feds to take the lead and assimilate beneath

Canada’s new normal? Or do we uphold a 75-year-old prohibition despite medical research suggesting marijuana is a true medicine?

The SNEC are intertwined with upholding certain provincial and federal standards. But what does the traditional leadership say?

Officially — nothing yet.

In its 2015 statement the HCCC said “After careful reflection…the Hodiyanehsoh unanimously agreed that it would be in violation of our Creator given laws to support and encourage the use of Dega’nigohade:nyohs, “Mindchangers” (Alcohol and Drugs).”

So — now what? Does the HCCC follow Canada’s lead and change the definition of “Mindchangers” to no longer include cannabis?

Does the HCCC reject medical research that proves cannabis is a medicine? Are they embracing and sustaining the colonial construct of marijuana’s prohibition?

If I drink weed tea, am I going to Haudenosaunee Hell?

If you don’t face the facts of our 2017 reality, the HCCC could find themselves in a governance pickle upholding the taboos of an older generation.

The HCCC needs to reconcile with its own people and operate with us in our current reality. And this means you can’t expect young adults to reject a legal substance because the Creator told an older generation it was wrong to use it.

By Thohahoken Forgetting our warriors is nothing new. In the past it was our allies who ignored our brave men. These days we seem to do it ourselves.

Yet we do have knowledge of warriorship.

The paintings of the “Four Indian Kings” has often been interpreted as four chiefs who visited Queen Anne in 1706.

However, as we inspect the paintings more closely we see that the three so-called chiefs are actually warriors.

The “chief” is dressed in black. The men dressed in white were his body guards—warriors.

In the US Declaration of Independence opens the door for the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms by Patriots against the “tyrant king” and his ally “Indian savages”. Our fighters.

Our fighters won the War of 1812 south of the Niagara escarpment. They defended the Tract of Indian Country called by Onkwehonwe our “Beaver Hunting Grounds”. Present-day southern Ontario would surely be the 51st American State if it wasn’t for our fighters.

We’ve been erased from World War I. Six Nations’ veterans like the Montours talked about the role Indigenous soldiers played in key battles in Europe such as Vimi Ridge. Wes Doxtater described how British commanders used Six Nations fighters in the first tanks—tanks

Thohahoken's dad George Doxtater was a Veteran of the Second World War. SUBMITTED PHOTO the commanders didn’t know would work. But when Six Nations soldiers drove the tanks into battle German forces ran from their trenches. After the first tank offensive British commanders quickly shuttled the Indians out of the way for pictures taken using white soldiers.

Six Nation’s fighters cut across religious and political lines. Bucks, Longboats, Greens, Montours, Millers, and many more.

Demonstrated in a letter to the British king in 1915, Clanmothers told King Edward that the Two Row and Friendship treaties made it necessary for men to fight as allies of the Crown. In the letter the Clanmothers said that among the Six Nations men who went were two 15-year old boys and asked that the king send them home.

Our chiefs and clanmothers sent warriors to fight the Kaiser as a show of strength and honour.

By the time of World War II Six Nations became split. Religious discrimination, intergenerational trauma transmitted by the older veterans, jealousy, and race became the new face at Six Nations. Some we did to ourselves.

Some from outside government interference.

The documentary I produced titled Forgotten Warriors (1996) describes the experience of indigenous warriors of the Second World War. Largely forgotten and ignored once they returned from the war, indigenous veterans faced hardships of a marginalized life. In many instances the Native soldier went to war as comrades in the al-

Volume 5, Issue 12

lied forces. Once they returned the Native soldier was marginalized back into reservation life, or unjustly deprived of their rights. Finally, they took a respected place in society and were lauded in their communities.

In Forgotten Warriors I intentionally describe the journey of our soldiers based on three general stages of grieving. The soldiers experienced denial, disorientation, and discovery.

During the war they said they believed they were equal. They suffered the ravages of post-traumatic stress disorder.

The war was unbelievable to them. Yet when they returned home from the war they were filled with expectations about improved living conditions only to be

Warriors not forgotten OPINION: Mass confusion on Six Nations from previous page disappointed that they remained marginalized.

The disorientation included the loss of their “Indian” rights, and in some cases, outright termination of land rights. Some veterans responded with outrage and substance abuse, and in some instances transmitted their trauma to their families.

Finally, these veterans were shown appreciation and respect in the indigenous community. Asked to accept roles as elders, many veterans worked in their communities for social reforms. They discovered that their healing came from their families, their communities, and each other.

Over the past 30-years the tradition of warriorship was practiced in spite of in-fighting and power struggles. Antis and warriors faced each other. In 1989 they fought each other.

There was a time over the past 30-years when warriorship was banned from the Six Nations. The culture-police said we’d become total pacifists and could only burn tobacco and pray for our enemies—having buried our weapons of war in ancient times.

Turn the other cheek.

The opposite view contended that the same chiefs called them warriors in 1959 when they were sent to overthrow the Elected Council. Listening to the chiefs in the 1990s, the late-Leman Gibson said “that’s what they called us then, so I don’t what we are anymore.” And my dad George, a veteran of World War II, clearly said “it’s too bad because they’re going to need those men someday.”

It’s been a tough year for our freedom fighters.

Bill Squires. Chris Sandy. Art Montour.

There is no doubt more names than these men. I beg the pardon of the families of names I didn’t mention. But I mention these men because they were personal friends who lived a history of strength and honour in fighting for Onkwehonwe rights.

They didn’t back down.

These men quietly stood their ground. At Kanehsatake. Akhwesahsne.

Tsi Kanetahere.

Strength and honour survives among gracious, kind, and strong warriors.

(Thohahoken Michael Doxtater is an educator from Six Nations.)

By Doug Whitlow BA, First Nations Studies

On Friday, October 20, a small and largely unnoticed group of Six Nations community members took part in a traffic snarling foot march from Caledonia to Ohsweken. The march continued again the next day from Ohsweken to Burtch.

A spokesperson for the marchers claimed that the group was attempting to raise an alarm as to exactly how disunited the residents of the reserve are in relation to local governance issues, especially when it comes to which body should be controlling land leasing and other farming issues within the Grand River Territory.

The spokesperson for the marchers said the group hoped to unite the people of this Six Nations community as to the fact that the Iroquois Confederacy Chiefs Council are the rightful governors of the land and it is that body which should control who gets to grant farming rights at the newly returned Burtch property.

Everyone who has been watching the highly publicized Burtch Land Transfer Process throughout the past 11 plus years is aware of the many ongoing political and local social problems this simple land transfer has caused here on the reserve and in the

nearby off-reserve communities. One of the most outstanding issues related not only to the Burtch situation, but to almost every other social problem here is: which group of Iroquois people was the Haldimand Tract, granted to in 1784?

This one simple question, has been, over the course of the past 230 years, and is today; the one item of contention that has everyone involved completely confused as to the rightful heirs to the tract. The inter-social difficulties that the Iroquois people of the Six Nations of the Grand River continue to experience will never be solved until we the people get together and solve the Haldimand Riddle. It really is that simple and could be accomplished very easily if people could just learn to get along.

However; as many people in the past have not learned and many people and groups of people living today have learned; just saying something is easy; actually doing something to solve the dilemma is the hard part because everybody wants to be the boss. Just by looking backward in time to 2006 and the onset of the Douglas Creek Estates (DCE) Incident is an good indicator of just how much confusion can arise among the local people just by looking at the number of groups and organizations which have

risen and been dissolved since the talks to settle the DCE question began in 2006. On the Six Nations side of the conference table we had, the Elected Council; the Iroquois Confederacy Chiefs Council; supporters of the Elected Council; supporters of the Confederacy Chiefs Council; representatives of the local press and some people who didn't really care whose side they were on.

On the opposite side of the conference table; initially there was the Canadian Federal Government; Indian Affairs; Federal Ministry of the Environment; Federal Ministry of Natural Resources; the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and other federal organizations that showed up from time to time. On the provincial level, there was at first the Ontario Secretariat of Aboriginal Affairs which later morphed into the Ontario Ministry of Aboriginal Affairs; the Ontario Ministry of the Environment; Ontario Ministry of Labour and the Ontario Realty Corporation which later became, the Ministry of Public Infrastructure and Renewal.

In addition to all of these groups the entire meeting structure was held in place by a duly elected Chair Person. If all of this was enough to confuse the attendees garnered from all the many Ministries and organizations and other

groups of interested parties; the meetings themselves were constantly altered to adapt to an influx of professional experts such as, archaeologists, geologists, morphologists and horticulturists who showed up to apprise every one of their individual expertise on a given subject. Now we should all remember that this show and its cast of thousands were gathered together (much like we are all gathered together today); to answer one simple question: who owns the land of the Douglas Creek Estates?

After all those meetings and all the dollars spent and all the food eaten and all the bickering and infighting and finger pointing, the question of who owns the land of DCE was never answered.

Getting back to this question of unity and how can it be attained by the community members who are searching for it; this writer doesn't have an answer either just as all those thousands of other people have never been able to answer the eternal question of; who owns the Haldimand Tract and the lesser question of who owns DCE (Kanonhstaton). However; once we arrive at the true owners/ownership of the Haldimand Tract; that will answer the other two questions of who owns DCE and the Burtch Lands.

Buffy performing Sunday at Sanderson Centre

By Jim Windle

BRANTFORD – To hear her once, you will recognize her unique vocal style forever.

Buffy St. Marie has not changed much in her decades of creating her landscape within her body of work — and it is still creating new music.

To see her, it is hard to fathom this woman turned 75-years-old in February.

She remains beautifully creative and eternally youthful.

She was born Beverly Sainte-Marie on Feb. 20, 1941, on the Piapot Cree First Nation reserve in the Qu’Appelle Valley, Sask. After the premature and sudden death of both her parents, she was adopted by Albert and Winifred Sainte-Marie who nicknamed her Buffy, and raised her in Massachusetts.

Her first recording was “It’s My Way” in 1964.

She is always on the cutting edge of technology, when it comes to music

and pioneered the whole concept of electronic file sharing of music tracks to remotely record tracks for some of her work.

“I saw a Buchla and Matrix and ARP synth early in the sixties, as soon as they came out, and I was just interested,” she told Vogue Magazine. “Later, I was using a Synclavier and a Fairlight, which were the earliest standing music computers.”

One of the unique things about her songwriting is by using any number of guitar tunings, some unique to her music alone.

At a personal level, Sainte-Marie began studying her Cree roots in her teens, and began being aware of the inequities facing indigenous people around the world.

Sainte-Marie began using her growing musical platform to speak out about Indigenous issues, and the anti-war movement of the Vietnam era.

“Universal Soldier” is a timeless anti-war classic that she was banned from

performing on TV or Radio in New York where she was a regular Greenwich Street singer/songwriter.

The song was eventually recorded and released in England by Donavan Leach and became a huge crossover international hit.

Naive to the music industry, Sainte-Marie gave one of her biggest songs away for a dollar, but years later bought the rights back for $25,000.

In 1965, she was being recognized as a powerful songwriter. Her song "Until It's Time for You to Go" was covered by some of the biggest names in the industry from Elvis to Barbra Streisand to Bette Davis.

But it was her connection with the American Indian Movement that brought her music and her love for her people to the surface.

While fighting a bout of bronchial pneumonia, she became addicted to codeine, a battle she eventually won.

“During the civil rights

and anti-war marches, even though my song ‘Universal Soldier’ was all over the streets, I was absent,” she told the CBC in an interview. “I threw myself into another direction and covered the base nobody else knew about — the reservations. I was friends with Stokely Carmichael, Mohammed Ali, Harry Belafonte and other African-American civil-rights giants. I took Dick Gregory to his first reservation — it broke his heart, he cried on the airplane back. With Joan Baez and Bob Dylan and all the other famous artists appearing at every photo op, I felt that other issues didn’t need my help; the reservations were a different story."

She started the Nihewan Foundation for law school sponsorships to Native Americans, which is very close to her heart.

“I have an Academy Award, but that’s not my biggest honor,” says the proud but contrite singer/ songwriter. “My biggest honor was to find out that

two of my early scholarship recipients had gone on to found tribal colleges.

Can you imagine that kind of thrill?”

Her first acting job came on an episode of “The Virginian”, directed by Sean Penn’s father Leo. Even then, she was her own woman.

“First, she insisted that the studio cast Native actors for all the Indian parts ('No Indians, no Buffy'),” Leo is quoted as saying.

“She also advocated that the writers bring complexity to her own role. She told them, '[I’m] not interested in playing Pocahontas.'"

Her outspokenness put her on a CIA list of dangerous musicians in the 1980s and regarded as “determined to encourage widespread citizen Protest.

As public as her life has been, there are some quiet spells where she retreated from time to time, like in 2009 when she disappeared in Hawaii under an assumed name and raised 27 goats, an old horse and a cat.

At 74, she released the Polaris Music Prize with her album, “Power in the Blood,” and has just released another.

In 2007, Buffy even visited Kanonhstaton and added her profile and support in the Six Nations land claim dispute in Caledonia.

Her list of first and newsworthy accomplishments goes on and on. But for this writer, it’s her song, “Bury My Heart in Wounded Knee,” that stands as one of her most powerful songs; still as pertinent today as the day she wrote it.

BUFFY SAINTE-MARIE Sunday November 12 8:00 PM $55.00/$45.00

Buffy Sainte-Marie’s critically-acclaimed album, Power in the Blood, begins where it all started more than 50 years ago, with a contemporary version of “It’s My Way,” the title track of her 1964 debut. Its message, about the road to self-identity and the conviction to be oneself, still resonates with the singer-songwriter, activist, educator, visual artist, and winner of countless awards (Academy Award, JUNO Awards, Polaris Music Prize, and Golden Globe, among them).

Although we do often share opinions and information about cannabis, Two Row Times does not endorse the use of illegal substances.

You should consult your physician for medical advice.

By Jim Windle BRANTFORD – Rick Simpson, creator of a marijuana extract known as RSO, claims the extract can cure some forms of cancer.

You might think that Simpson, one of the pioneers of legal medicinal use of marijuana, would be thrilled that the Liberals have made pot legal through Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, but Simpson is not entirely pleased with how Trudeau is going about doing it.

Either way, Simpson will continue to educate people on the new studies and medical values of the Cannabis plant and continue his lecture circuit which takes him around the world.

Two Row Times caught up with Simpson while he was visiting friends in Brantford earlier his week.

“From what I understand, he has given out about 40 licences to these different companies to produce extracts, but what they are trying to bring in genetically modified plants and restrict the active ingredient.”

He further theorizes that it would be the government’s aim to control the growing of a harmless medicinal plant and sell the right to grow it to Big Pharma or Monsanto or something like that.

“At the reported $10 per gram [that] the government is going to charge, that’s only $4,480 a pound? I can get it from a street dealer for less than that,” he says. “It’s our right to this medicine. It’s non-addictive, hasn’t killed anyone. You don’t ban the most medicinal plant on earth.”

Simpson fears the quality of government

Rick Simpson has been a warrior for legalization of cannabis for medical use for years after having cancerous lesions on his face and body completely healed with an oil extract he developed from marijuana in the 1990s he calls RSO, or Rick Simpson Oil. See testimonies at phoenixtears.ca PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE grown marijuana and controlled overpricing will drive the black market, which is cheaper and more readily available.

Simpson’s study has shown the use of Cannabis in a number of indigenous peoples around the world where it grows free, has always been.

The TRT’s series on ancient remedies from a Tuscarora shaman from the 1800s includes hemp plants as an ingredient in a few of them.

“I don’t know why Indian Nations don’t just tell the federal government to go to hell about restricting or banning the use of medicine plants they have been using for a number of ailments since time immemorial,” he says.

Simpson retained a head injury in 1997 and was treated for post-concussion syndrome. He was put on a number of pills but they didn’t seem to be really doing the job.

“I was watching an episode of the Nature of Things with David Suzuki,” recalls Simpson.

“There was a documentary out at that time called

Reefer Madness II and it was about all these people getting results from Marijuana. I had smoked pot before but I never thought of it as medicine.

I went out and got some from the street, and smoked it and it worked better than anything they had prescribed for me.”

He tried to get a prescription for it but his family doctor was dead set against it and would not issue a prescription, even though it was technically available to him.

“Imagine — a plant that has been in use for 5,000 years or more is still under study?” he hypothetically asks. “He said that smoking pot was no good for the lungs etcetera, so I asked him, what if I can make an extract from it so I’m not smoking it? The doctor still said no.”

Even today, some doctors will not prescribe it.

The prescribed pharmaceuticals Simpson was given didn’t work well and became an issue including suicidal thoughts and tendencies.

“I thought I’d try

making my own extract and try that.” Simpson says. “What I needed was a sedative because I couldn’t sleep, and it sure did the job. At first I was afraid of it because I didn’t know how powerful it would be.”

His doctor told Simpson in late 2001 there was nothing left to do and pretty well told him he was on his own.

Left to his own devices, Simpson began using the extract he had developed and found that it was bring relief to a number of ailments, including arthritic pain in the knees.

In late 2002, he developed melanoma spots on this nose, cheek and chest.

“I had these lesions since the 1990s and they wouldn’t go away,” says Simpson. “I had the operation on my nose, and it got infected, and then came back anyhow.”

He read in a magazine that there was some evidence of pot being able to cure some forms of cancer, but no one seemed to accept the studies as legitimate at the time.

With nothing to lose, he experimented on himself, dropping a dab on each of his lesions and put a bandage on them.

He immediately felt something different. He normally felt something like a sliver in each of the small lesions, or an annoying tingle — and it stopped.

He left the bandages on the spots for several days, not expecting much, but when he removed them, the lesions were completely gone.

From that moment on, he became a vigilant fighter for the legalization of medical marijuana and its extracts.

“I went back to my doctor with a copy of my pathology report and there it was, carcinoma, so I asked to see the doctor and show him, but she would not book the appointment, saying the doctor would not preCONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

scribe marijuana.”

This response floored him.

“They always say they are looking for a cure for cancer and when one comes up, like my extract oil, they write it off if it doesn’t come through Big Pharma,” he says.

“If I was a small-town doctor and someone came in with a cure for cancer, you would think he would be interested,” says Simpson. “I started giving the oil to people with psoriasis, burns and other skin conditions, and getting positive results.”

Simpson began taking the oil internally, saying he knows it would not hurt anyone, and also recommending it to others. He said the results have been astounding.

In 2003, he met with two Ministers of Health and every political party, David Suzuki, the Canadian Cancer Society and anyone else that could make a difference in opening up to medical cannabis.

The RCMP has raided him four times, but he is not selling the oil, so technically he was not trafficking, but was convicted anyway.

“I have been convicted for trafficking, but in the sentencing, the judge said, ‘If it were any other circumstance, Mr. Simpson would be winning awards for his work.’”

The Crown Attorney said the issue was that Simpson had not gone through the right channels, but he doesn’t know

how many more channels he could have tried to go through, unsuccessfully.

It was acknowledged by the judge that there was no criminal intent, but he was still convicted.

“I brought in 10 patients to testify, two were cured of terminal cancers, six doctors and a big box of scientific evidence, and the court would not let them on the stand or accept my evidence.”

Simpson now lives in Croatia, the homeland of his wife. He finds Europe is generally way ahead of North America in openness to the healing power of cannabis.

Simpson is being invited as an advisor to several countries studying the medical use of marijuana. In Ireland, they were working on an oil extract but couldn’t find the right mix, so invited him to assess their work.

Simpson still does not sell his oil but freely gives the recipe on his website.

Rick Simpson Oil is not government approved, at least not yet, but will soon, if Simpson has anything to do with it.

“There are so many people out there who have taken my oil recipe and produce it under my name as RSO or Rick Simpson Oil, but is not.

“It’s a cheap imitation of Rick Simpson’s Oil,” he says. “Can you imagine someone selling a sick or dying person a bogus remedy, and doing it under my name?”

SNVA: The little legion that could

By Jim Windle

OHSWEKEN — It was 1949 and the veterans were back from an experience that they would all carry for the rest of their lives. Some didn’t want to remember it at all while others found lifelong friendships with fellow brothers-in-arms.

The Royal Canadian Legion organization itself was founded in 1925 following the end of the First World War, but even before that, The Great War Veterans Association was founded in 1917

by Lillian Bilsky Freiman and was the first national organization for veterans, and by 1919.

There were others as well. In all, there were 15 different organizations existed to aid returning veterans in Canada.

Wishing to join assets and services under one banner, the Dominion Veterans Alliance was created to unite these organizations.

SNVA began in 1949. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE In 1960, Elizabeth II granted The Legion royal patronage and it became “The Royal Canadian Legion.”

At Six Nations, there was the need and desire to give Six Nations veterans their own place to gather and continue to

serve, even if in a ceremonial capacity, with their comrades.

Serving in the Canadian or American Military during wartime was hard for all bright-eyed young warriors, but for Onkwehonwe soldiers, it was especially hard.

Historically, war requires the killing of other human beings or being killed yourself. Generals have found that by dehumanizing the enemy, it becomes much easier to “exterminate the vermin”.

A look at any war-years posters and it will show

that racism was, and is, a very powerful tool. The Germans were “Jerry’s” or “Krouts,” the Japanese were “Japs”.

Following the War, this racist training began leaking into the mainstream when the soldiers got home. If it was OK to call a German a Krout, why is it not OK to call a Polish person a Polock, or an Italian a Wap. Or a First Nation person a “Wahoo” even if he fought on your side.

Now multiply that by two wars within one generation of each other. That’s granddad’s encouraged bigotry, times your dad’s psychological training, and the anti-foreigner propaganda of both wars being lavished upon a generation of post war children. This “us-and-them” mentality sometimes made joining a Canadian Legion a little harder for Six Nations Vets who, understandably wanted to be with their own where ethnic

slurs were not a part of the normal vocabulary, even when no offence was intended.

Six Nations warriors have never shied away from a fight, but there is also an inborn respect for all life that most European blood, generally speaking, does not fully understand. In some cases, there were language barriers and a darker shade of skin that made them different from European blooded soldiers.

Four years after the War, Six Nations Veterans Association began with a small handful of Six Nations vets.

The young organization got off the ground in 1949. It had its ups and downs but remained an important place for Six Nations and New Credit Veterans to gather. For several reasons, by the turn of the millennium, membership was down to around 10, and by 2002, CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

NOTICE OF PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE DETAILED DESIGN AND CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STUDY Highway 401 Interchange & Highway Improvements from Hespeler Road to Townline Road, City of Cambridge (GWP 3222-15-00) THE STUDY The Ministry of Transportation, Ontario (MTO) has retained Stantec Consulting Ltd. to complete the Detailed Design and Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) study for improvements on Highway 401 from Hespeler Road to Townline Road in the City of Cambridge, Region of Waterloo, as shown on the key plan below.

Since the issuance of the Notice of Study Commencement in May 2014 (formerly GWP 3060-11-00), the project has been divided into two phases to support construction staging, and is tentatively scheduled for consecutive construction, subject to completion of the Study, funding, and approvals: • Phase I (2018) - Replacement of the Franklin Boulevard bridge, including some interchange work, and replacement of guiderail and municipal illumination on Franklin Boulevard.

• Phase II (Starting in 2019 to 2021) - Widening of Highway 401 to ten lanes, including High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes; reconstruction of the Highway 401 interchanges at Hespeler Road; replacement of the Hespeler Road bridge; and retaining walls as needed; expansion of the commuter parking lot at the Townline Road interchange. Drainage improvements, illumination, overhead signs and traffic signals will be completed as part of this phase.

A section of new noise wall will be constructed along the south side of Highway 401, west of Franklin Boulevard. The study will include the provision for pedestrian/cyclist travel across Highway 401 on Franklin Boulevard and Hespeler Road in accordance with the active transportation goals of the Region of Waterloo and the City of Cambridge.

Six Nations Veterans continued from page 13 they had $3. in the bank.

That’s when John Monture, president of the Veterans Association, and his wife Vera decided the organization was too important to just let die, and to do everything they could to bring it back from the brink. Monture became president of the SNVA and the fundraising began. Slowly membership began to rise and the piggy bank wasn’t starving anymore.

“Yes, it was pretty bad, but we have a great membership who dig in and help,” says Monture.

Although back from the brink, funding is always a year-round job and treasurers Vicky Martin and Marylou Brant are keeping an eye on the account.

“The Thomas girls have been fundraising and we have come a very long way.

“We will be approaching more corporate funding this year for our Veterans Day parade,” says Monture.

Under Monture’s leadership and with the help

of past president Bob Johnson and others, Six Nations began hosting its annual Veterans Day Parade, inviting bands and colour guards from throughout the region. It was also decided that if Six Nations was to host its own parades, they would have to move the date from September 11, so that other Legions would be free to participate.

That was a good idea since the Six Nations Veterans Day Parade is one of the biggest in the immediate area. It also frees up Six Nations veterans’ colour guard to carry the flag of the Six Nations Veterans Association in other communities.

Meat Draws and dances at the Vets Hall, and other fundraising efforts help to keep the doors open and corporate help and private donations help defray the costs of hosting dozens of area legions to Six Nations, the fly-by and meal.

Like all Service Clubs, attrition is SNVA’s biggest worry. Where are the new

members going to come from? “Seems the younger veterans we have just don’t want to get involved anymore,” says Monture who at 74, is concerned for the future of the organization.

Nationally, service clubs have broadened their base to include retired police and firemen, as well as those who just want to support the idea of it. Today, the Royal Canadian Legion has more than 275,000 members in more than 1,400 branches.

Fire Station No. 3 out of service Submitted article SIX NATIONS – Fire Station No. 3 located on Cayuga Rd. will be out of service for an indefinite period of time due to a shooting incident.

For an unknown reason, someone fired multiple gun shots at the station – approximately 10 entry/exit bullet holes were located in multiple sides of the Fire Station.

Thankfully no one was at the fire station when the incident occurred and no injuries have been reported.

The fire trucks which were in the station at the time of the shooting are currently out of service and will be inspected by our emergency vehicle technicians throughout the next few days

to ensure they are fully operational and ready for emergency service before being placed back in service at one of our other fire stations.

Due to safety concerns for our responding firefighters, Fire Station No. 3 will remain out of service until we can ensure their safety.

This will cause a potential delayed response to community members living in the Cayuga Rd., River Range Rd., Oneida Rd., 6th Line and 5th Line areas of Six Nations.

We are asking that if anyone has any information with regards to this serious incident which is impacting our community please contact the Six Nations Police at 519445-2811.

It appears the Fire Station on Cayuga Road got shot up recently. The Station is out of operation for now while they investigate and repair.

This year, TRT will be hosting a number of workshops for youth across the territory.

Sessions will be run throughout the month to teach youth how to host a YouTube channel, video production and computers.

The end of the campaign we see us host the third annual Day of Play - courtesy of the Dreamcatcher Charitable Foundation.

Keep checking the paper each week for more information

about how to register for the workshops and Day of Play details — coming soon!

And as always we’ll have a slew of cool articles including game reviews, traditional reflections on the merits of games in

indigneous communities and so much more.

So let’s get together and ENGAGE in something great.

The Niagara Reinforcement Line (NRL), a 76 KM transmission line, has been sitting near completion yet unconnected for over 10 years. The project’s final connection point is the Middleport Transformer Station – which requires routing along the Highway 6 bypass in Caledonia, ON. A three-phase bundled solution, to ENERGIZE, ACQUIRE, and OPTIMIZE the Niagara Reinforcement Line, has been proposed by Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation (SNGRDC) to the Ministry of Energy (ENERGY) and Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One).

ENERGIZE the Niagara Reinforcement Line - Hydro One is committed to offering a contract opportunity to A6N to complete the remaining construction of the line using local First Nations Trades people.

ACQUIRE interest- SNGRDC will purchase up to 25% ownership in the line, financing will be supported through an Aboriginal Loan Guarantee from the Ontario Finance Authority, resulting in a lower cost of capital.

OPTIMIZE Future Renewable Energy Developments – ENERGY will set aside 300 MW of renewable energy development for SNGRDC to develop on Six Nations behalf.

A 60-day community engagement (Oct 16-Dec 15) will gather community feedback to determine if the community supports the project through qualitative analysis.

If the project receives general acceptance by Six Nations of the Grand River community members, the line could be energized as early as Fall of 2018.

Pending engagement, SNGRDC will make all reasonable efforts to address community concerns within definitive agreements.

No committment by Six Nations of the Grand River has been made to proceed with the project.

Common painkiller could reduce cancer risk LOS ANGELES — A largescale study of more than 600,000 people has shown that long-term aspirin use may significantly reduce the incidence of five types of cancers that affect the digestive system.

The study compared cancer risk between people who had taken aspirin for at least six months and non-aspirin users over a 10-year period.

Results showed a nearly 50% reduction in liver and esophageal cancers… and significant reduction in pancreatic, colorectal and gastric cancers.

Several other cancers outside the digestive system were also assessed, with mixed results.

Aspirin use also correlated with a reduction in leukemia, lung and prostate cancer — but not with cancers of the breast, kidney or bladder.

NatioN News Ontario names first 14 cities to host pot shops all our relations.

The Canadian Press TORONTO — Ontario has named the first 14 cities where it will set up government-run marijuana stores by July 2018.

The Liquor Control Board of Ontario, which will run the shops through a subsidiary, said Friday the stores will be located in Barrie, Brampton, Hamilton, Kingston, Kitchener, London, Mississauga, Ottawa, Sault Ste. Marie, Sudbury, Thunder Bay, Toronto, Vaughan and Windsor.

The LCBO said its representatives, along with staff from Ontario's Ministry of Finance, will meet with the municipalities in the coming weeks to de-

termine the exact locations.

The Ontario government said it will be identifying more locations for its first batch of 40 stores but notes that all consumers will be able to access cannabis through an online retail website.

The province plans to set up approximately 150 stand-alone cannabis stores by 2020.

Last week, Finance Minister Charles Sousa wrote municipal leaders and said Ontario's store rollout aims to achieve the right geographic distribution across the province and to reduce the number of illegal marijuana dispensaries that have opened since the federal

MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION SESSION

government announced it will legalize marijuana next summer. ``Our proposed approach is to build on the expertise and back-office capabilities of the LCBO to set up the Crown Corporation,'' Sousa said in the letter to municipalities. ``Our priority is to reduce the illegal market by building on our strengths to create an efficient and secure system for people across the province.''

The public will also be notified about the proposed store locations and will be asked to provide feedback directly to the LCBO, he said. None of the retail stores will be located near schools, Sousa said.

Ontario was the first province to announce a detailed plan to sell and distribute recreational marijuana and will set the legal age to purchase it at 19.

The federal government introduced legislation in April with a goal of legalizing and regulating the use of recreational pot by July 1, 2018, but left it up to individual provinces to design their own distribution system and usage regulations.

Consumption of legal weed will not be allowed

in public spaces or workplaces and should be confined to private residences, the province has said.

The government introduced its marijuana legislation earlier this week, which contains new penalties for people that are convicted of illegally selling or distributing cannabis, including fines of up to $250,000 and/or jail of up to two years less a day.

For every day those people or businesses continue to sell marijuana after being convicted the first time, they will be

subject to further fines of up to $100,000 and $500,000, respectively.

Attorney General Yasir Naqvi said the government will clamp down on illegal distribution channels. ``We are going to work very hard towards that,'' he said. ``We have put very strict penalties in that regards?.We feel very comfortable that the regime that we will put in place will be a significant deterrent for these illegal businesses.''

ACE Alicia Keys acknowledges Indigenous struggles arts. culture. entertainment.

By Chezney Martin MONTREAL – Both the Indigenous Rights Movement and 15-time Grammy-Award winning artist Alicia Keys share the 2017 Ambassador of Conscience Award, awarded on Saturday, November 4.

“To be given this great honour, and to be in the presence of the Indigenous rights movement is a humbling experience,” said Keys.

Each year, the award is bestowed upon individuals and groups that have spoken out against human rights injustices and who also use their talents to inspire those around them to fight for human rights.

The indigenous rights movement worked through five key campaigns including the fight for Indigenous children,

raising awareness about the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, violence against indigenous women and girls, land rights for indigenous people, and hidden impacts of resource development on indigenous women.

“First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples have faced severe and persistent human rights abuses at the hands of governments in Canada. In fact, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission concluded that government policies have attempted the utter destruction of their cultures and identities. The Ambassadors of Conscience Award celebrates the strength, resilience and courage that has exposed and countered these abuses, brought about a sea-change in public

awareness of Indigenous rights in Canada, and challenged and advanced the global framework of human rights protection,” wrote the amnesty on their online website.

This year the Ambassador of Conscience Award will be shared between leaders and activists from the Indigenous rights movement who have shown remarkable courage in leading important equality rights battles, defending land rights, speaking out for the safety of Indigenous women and girls, and inspiring non-Indigenous and Indigenous people to action.

Accepting the award recognizing the Indigenous rights movement of Canada will be six individuals representing the strength and diversity of the movement, which has bravely fought to end dis-

Alicia Keys continued from page 23 crimination and ensure the safety and well-being of Indigenous families and communities. They are Cindy Blackstock, Delilah Saunders, Melanie Morrison, Senator Murray Sinclair, Melissa Mollen Dupuis and Widia Larivière.”

With a clean face and often referred as the “Queen of R&B,” Keys has taken initiative to interweave her art with activism as well.

“To have a conscience is to respect each other’s lives,” said Keys during

her speech. “I wonder why native people are the most oppressed. The ones who have been here the longest, the ones that built the whole country with sweat and tears and still have to fight for their dignity.”

Her recognition during the award is also well deserved not only as an artist, but as a woman and activist.

“Stunned by the fact that there are now more refugees in the world today than at any other point in history, the mu-

sician helped create and appeared in a short film entitled “Let Me In” to mark last year’s World Refugee Day. With her song, "Hallelujah” at its centre, the film brings the issue of the refugee crisis home to viewers by telling the powerful story of a young American family forced to flee to the US-Mexico border.

In 2014, she co-founded the We Are Here Movement to encourage young people to mobilize for change, asking the question “Why are you

here?” as a call to action.

Through the movement she has sought to galvanize her audience to take action on issues such as criminal justice reform and ending gun violence.

Her extensive philanthropic work includes co-founding Keep a Child Alive (KCA), a non-profit organization providing treatment and care to children and families affected by HIV in Africa and India,” wrote the amnesty.

Early shoppers hit bazaars for gifts

By Chezney Martin SIX NATIONS/BRANTFORD – A round of old fashioned craft bazaars swept through the Six Nations and Brantford area to help early shoppers find gifts or gift ideas on Saturday, November 4.

J.C. Hill Elementary School, Six Nations Social Services, the Woodland Cultural Centre and the Mohawk Chapel opened their doors to allow visitors to visit vendors, artisans and seasonal favourites to help both early shoppers and crafters for the coming holiday season.

As entrepreneurship in Canada ranks in second worldwide, entrepreneurship among indigenous people has been viewed as one means of raising economic conditions for these indigenous communities and each crafter is a business owner in their own right.

Tara Froman organized the bazaar that filled the auditorium room in the Woodland Cultural Centre, and she said the event is something she looks forward to.

“It's great to be able to help [the vendors],” said Froman. “To see what they're doing and to see how talented they are and thinking — because they are learning from each other too. So, it's amazing just to see the growth.”

From moccasins to bead work, housewares to food, the collection of bazaars offered everything and more with many of the vendors and crafters

being yearly attendants.

“There's vendors like Katie Sickles who's been here every year and she's the master in her craft and she's even teaching others,” she said.

Sickles is a splint basket maker and Froman explained that each year many people come to the bazaar specifically to buy new Kanohses baskets from her.

But the crafters tend

to share a symbiotic relationship with the location as both can reap benefits.

“We offer the community and other people a place to make a living and then it helps the museum out too,” she added.

If you missed out on this round of bazaars, be sure to keep an eye out for the annual bazaar held at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena in the coming weeks.

Social Services also housed a great bunch of local vendors. PHOTO BY CHEZNEY MARTIN

BCI Mustangs senior champs

By Jim Windle

BRANTFORD – It was a tight defensive affair but in the end the BCI Sr. Mustangs defeated the Assumption Lions 10-8 at the Kiwanis Field at Pauline Johnson High School.

Jordan Charter, head coach of the Mustangs, was over the moon with his team’s Championship win.

“We had to beat a really good team to get here and we had to beat a good physical and athletic team today,” he told media after the game.

“We’ve come a long way this season and it feels great to have won today.”

The Lions got the first chances after a big kickoff runback to the Mustangs’ 40-yard line, but the BCI defence held them off forcing the Lions to punt.

A bad snap put the Mustangs deep in their own zone but BCI got themselves out of trouble.

Late in the first quarter the Mustangs started to come on when quarterback Josh Downy competed a pass to Ben McAlpine that put the Mustangs deep into Lions territory.

Downy ran the ball into the end zone himself, scoring the first touchdown of the game. After the successful convert, BCI held a 7-0 lead.

Scoring opportunities

The BCI Sr. Mustangs won the Erie Board High School football championship with a 10-8 win Saturday afternoon over the Assumption College Lions at the PJ Kiwanis Field, in Brantford Saturday. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE were denied by solid defending teams from both sides of the ball. A touchback from a punt that went out of bounds put Assumptions first point on the scoreboard.

Amazing

The score held until the fourth quarter when Adrian Popielec-Henry, broke through for a long downfield run for a touchdown, drawing the teams even at 7-7.

JUNIOR B HOCKEY ACTION

With the convert plus the touchback point, Assumption was leading 8-7, but Downey and McAlpine connected again and after a long run found themselves with-

in field-goal range. Mustangs’ kicker Josh Macklin made it count and the Mustangs were up 10-8 and the clock running down with under five minutes left.

It all came down to a field goal attempt by the Lions with seconds left. It missed and the Mustangs held on for the Championship win.

Blast still off balance

By Jim Windle

BRANTFORD – Only four games into the ACH Senior AAA schedule, the Brantford Blast are 1-3 and share last place with the Dundas Real McCoys.

The Blast are not used to looking that far up the rankings but are determined to reverse their course.

On Saturday, the Blast let another one slip by

when the visiting Hamilton Steelhawks downed the Brantford 5-3 at the Brantford Civic Centre.

Brantford’s Dustin Alcock got the Blast off on the right foot at 6:18 of the first period, assisted by Jacob Ledyard and Six Nations/New Credit’s Cameron Sault.

Hamilton came back with two, scored by Stephon Thorne and Taylor Carnevale, one minute

apart, but Alcock evened the score at 2-2 on a powerplay.

Josh Ranalli slid the lead towards Hamilton at 7:30 of the second period. Sault scored from Andrew Marcoux and Chris Rebernik at 16:36.

Things were looking pretty good for Brantford going into the third period but at 15:59, the Steelhawks struck with Ranalli’s second of the

game with his hat-trick goal coming two minutes and 20 seconds later to put the game away.

Cam Sault still leads the Blast in scoring with three goals and five assists for eight points.

This coming Friday, Nov. 10, the Blast will try to get back on track against the first place Stoney Creak Generals at the Brantford Civic Centre at 7:30 p.m.

CALEDONIA – The Corvairs dodged a bullet Saturday night in Fort Erie, when the second last team in the conference took the first place Corvairs to OT before losing to Caledonia 4-3 in extra time.

Griffin Roubos scored a powerplay goal at 17:57 of the first frame assisted

by Adam Craievcich and Jesse Barwell. Once again, the Corvairs massively outshot their opponents but eeked out a win.

The Meteors were outshot 19-5 in the second period, however each team scored one goal.

Matt Weston scored for Caledonia at 7:31 from TJ Hughes and Isaac Taylor but was matched by Meteors’ Bradey Lee to complete the second period with Caledonia leading 2-1.

The game almost got way from the Corvairs in the third after Marco Lariccia and Drew Passero.

But a late goal scored by Owen Lane from Eddie Shultz and Mark Bzowey with under two minutes remaining sent the game

into OT. It was Craievich, which ended the game at 1:23 of OT for the two points.

They would need that point. The Corvairs are in first place in the Conference but by only one thin point.

Niagara Falls is in second place with 30 points however have played three more games than the Corvairs. The St. Catharines Falcons are in third place with 28 points in 19 games played, one more than Caledonia.

And don’t forget about Ancaster, in fourth place with 26 points but have played two less games than Caledonia, five less than Niagara Falls, and three less games than St. Catharines.

Last Tuesday, in a game that missed out deadline, the Corvairs defeated the Av’s 4-2. This coming week, the Corvairs get a shot at the Falcons in St. Catharines Friday night, Nov. 10th before hosting the Niagara Falls Canucks, Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. at the Haldimand Centre Arena.

HAGERSVILLE – The Port Dover Sailors kept the Hagersville Hawks downward slide going after defeating the Hawks 6-4, Saturday night in Hagersville.

The Hawks are suffering through a very slow start to the Jr. C hockey season with a 3-wins, 10-losses and one tie record; tied with the Simcoe Storm in last place with 7 points. The Hawks still have someone to look down upon since the Storm have played three more games.

The Hawks will have a big challenge this week-

end beginning Friday night when they travel to Grimsby to face the second place Peach Kings.

Then, on Saturday night at the Hagersville Arena, the Hawks play host to the fifth place Niagara Riverhawks.

Cody Jamieson’s teammates and Teameights

By Jim Windle

OHSWEKEN — At least in lacrosse circles the number 88 points directly towards Six Nations and Cody Jamieson.

In his sixth season as a pro, all of them with the Rochester Knighthawks, Jamieson was a big part of the 2012 to 2014 three year run as NLL’s Championship Cup winning teams and innumerable hi-light real goals. This past summer, Jamieson served as ambassador for the North American Indigenous Games.

Jamieson has been plagued with injuries the past two seasons missing last year’s NLL season entirely, he is confident he will be ready when the Knighthawk’s season begins.

How many more training camps are left for Jamieson is anybody’s guess but one thing is for sure.

His heart will always be ready.

Jamieson’s familiar No. 88 has been taking on another meaning as well. He started the Teameights Foundation, and when he is not on the field or in the gym, Jamieson is speaking at schools and events with a strong message he believes that needs to be said.

Growing up on the Six Nations reserve, Jamieson is not unfamiliar with the tragedy of young lives wasted by drugs and suicide. But rather than accepting that as just the way it is on the Rez, Jamieson decided to use his considerable profile to help break the stigma of suicide and how easy it has become the “normal way out” for far too many young people.

“I know how much my teammates have meant to me over the years, helping be get through tough times,” he says.

“They become like fami-

ly, and I want young people to know that I would be their teammate too.”

Jamieson carries an anti-bullying message to area schools to encourage kids to join his team and find a teammate themselves and look out for one another. When speaking, he uses his lacrosse stick to teach life tools.

“I didn’t have a lot of friends growing up,” he says. “So, my lacrosse stick became my best friend. It was always ready to play, and would always be there for me after a bad day.”

Now 30 years of age with a wife and three kids of his own, Jamieson doesn’t get as much time to travel with the foundation and play lacrosse, but when that day comes and he has to hang it up, his old friend will still be at his side as they continue to teach life lessons and self-confidence to another generation.

HEALING NATIONS

Cody Jamieson has always leaned on his best friend and they are both ready to go for this coming NLL season. The question is, will his knee? Jamieson suffered an injury two seasons ago that kept him out of the Knighthawks lineup last season to recover. He tells TRT that his knee feels fine and he believes he will be back in his familiar No. 88 jersey when the Knighthawks`season begins. FILE PHOTO

Diabetic recipe: Spaghetti Squash Carbonara

By Abby Sue The stringy insides of cooked spaghetti squash are what gives this vegetable its name. Add bacon, eggs, and cheese to recreate this traditional Italian meal.

Ingredients: – 1 spaghetti squash (large, about 2 lb.)

– 6 slices bacon (or ⅓ cup cooked pancetta) – 2 large eggs – 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese – 4 cloves garlic (minced, optional) – salt – pepper – 2 teaspoons fresh parsley (chopped) – Parmesan cheese (for garnish, if desired)

and stringy flesh. Place squash flesh side down in a microwave-safe glass baking pan. Cook 10 to 12 minutes until flesh is soft.

Let squash cool to touch, turn over, and "rake" a fork through the flesh to create the "noodles."

2 – While the squash is cooking, use kitchen shears to cut bacon into small pieces. Cook bacon in a large skillet. Place on a paper-towel-lined plate when cooked. Reserve a small amount of bacon drippings in frying pan.

3 – Combine eggs, cheese, salt. and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.

4 – Just prior to serving, add garlic to frying pan and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add the spaghetti squash and bacon and heat thoroughly. Turn off heat and add egg/cheese mixture.

Toss to combine. (The egg will cook when combined with the hot squash).

5 – Garnish with parsley and additional Parmesan cheese.

Directions: 1 – Slice spaghetti squash in half, lengthwise, from stem to tail. Remove seeds
