No funding for language school after minister’s visit DONNA DURIC

donna@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

Parents and community members expressed anger last week after a visit from the federal minister of indigenous services produced nothing more than a speech regarding the community’s almost 40-year struggle getting funding for a language immersion school.

Last Wednesday’s visit from ISC Minister Marc Miller was heralded with much anticipation - along with protest signs - only to result in a blunt announcement that he could not promise any funding for a new Kawenni:io/Gaweni:yo Language Immersion School.

Parents and community members held signs likening the condition of the school and lack of funding to continued punishment reminiscent of the residential school era, when Indigenous children were forced to give up their languages and learn English at the church-run boarding schools.

Students and staff have been learning out of makeshift buildings around the reserve since the school’s inception in the 1980s.

Miller said he wants to see the school built but

couldn’t promise anything.

"We want to see this done,” he told about 150 people gathered in the parking lot at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena last week where students currently learn out of makeshift classrooms on the second floor of the building. “We’re here to see it get done and that’s the work I need to go back to my government and get done.”

Miller said supporting languages and culture around Canada is a “huge priority to this government” but the money just isn’t there.

“That’s what we need to go back and get done. This is a project you fought long for and I’m only starting to fight for. I’m very much aware of an application that is in to fund the building.

My government should be focused on getting you the funding you need to build a new school.”

He told the group, “I can’t promise anything today. I think the worst thing that can happen is make false promises and not be able to fulfill on them. It’s something I do want to see happen and does have the attention of my government. I’m wiling to fight for it. If I could cut a cheque today I’d probably be a much more dangerous person than I am already.”

Everyone is looking for

Miller said supporting languages and culture around Canada is a “huge priority to this government” but the money just isn’t there.

money from the same pot, though, as reserves across the country deal with vast underfunding in every area of life.

“There’s a process that is competitive in nature that is wildly oversubscribed that your school is part of,” said Miller. “I know those are tough words to hear.

It’s something I do want to see happen whether it’s through this process or another and I wear the responsibility of that failure should it not come to fruition. I’m not here to present excuses. I do hope to come back here in the future so we can have a brighter day.

I do recognize language is life. It’s something I do take to heart.”

Said he will work with Kawenni:io/Gaweni:yo principal Jeremy Green and

the team at the school to secure funding for a new build.

Land for a new building has already been designated beside Six Nations Polytechnic on Fourth Line Road, with bids currently being accepted for site servicing work on the property.

ISC has already approved the design build.

They just need the funding now - to the tune of $30 million.

Because of Covid, the cost per square foot has gone up substantially from its previous estimates of $18 million, said school board Chair Ruby Jacobs.

“We feel that the education of the education of these children is the responsibility of the federal government,” she said.

“These children have been going to school in these circumstances since 1986.

The teachers and the funding for the programming is minimal, too.”

ISC funds annual operations for the school at $4 million but that number would have to increase after a new school is built because of the size of the building and the increased number of staff and students.

There will be a substantial increase in families applying to attend the school, she said.

“They want this. It’s a small area we have now.”

About 120 students attend KG now. The new school could house 300 or more students.

In light of the Canadian federal government not announcing funding for KGPS school construction, Jacobs had words of determination, “This will not deter us from continuing our critically important work of maintaining and revitalizing Onkwehon:we languages, culture, knowledge and way of life.

Nothing changes for us today. We will keep doing what we have been doing.

Bids went out recently for tender for Phase I Site Servicing Construction of the Kawenní:io-Gawęni:yo school. We are proceeding as planned.”

Should the Federal Government fund the school, the KGPS Board of Directors will review any offers of funding prior to accepting them to ensure that any requirements for receiving funding to construct a school are in line with the philosophy, vision, mission and goals of the Kawenni:io-Gawęni:yo Private School.

Green reiterated the need for support, “We encourage individuals, families, teams, companies, entrepreneurs, associations, corporations, philanthropists and local, regional, national and international governments and bodies to donate to our building fund. We thank those who have already donated.

We also thank those who have helped promote and increase awareness of our situation – that we have no school. Our children matter. It’s time these children had a school.”

To get involved or to donate please email KGPS Principal Jeremy Green at principal@kgps.ca, KGPS Board of Directors Secretary at kgboard@kgps. ca or by calling the school at (905)768-7203 or by texting (519)770-7233.

Donations can be sent via cheque to the address on the top of page one, through e-transfer to buildourschool@kgps.ca.

TWO ROW TIMES

OHSWEKEN — Police say two men vandalized a local carwash and stole the automated payment machine inside.

Witnesses called OPP around 4:19 a.m. on Tuesday, May 31 and said it sounded like something was being smashed in the carwash area. The vandals were seen pulling out the pay machine and two vehi-

cles were reported to police as being involved.

A white truck and a dark coloured Chevrolet pick up truck fled the scene, headed eastbound on Fourth Line.

Police observed the pay machine/wash selector to have been ripped out of the ground. Police were informed that the pay machine is emptied daily.

A witness described one male to be approximately 6'0", 230-240 pounds, wearing shorts with a dark hoodie. The other male was described as approximately

5'6" to 5'8" and 180-190 pounds.

Anyone with information regarding this incident should immediately contact the Six Nations Police Service at 519-445-2811.

Homeless crisis in Brantford and Six Nations

By Donna Duric

Thirty-seven per cent of Brantford’s homeless population are of Indigenous ancestry. That’s in a city where only 2.4 per cent of the population identifies as Indigenous.

Not only that, but the majority of homeless Indigenous people in Brantford are from Six Nations, who are leaving the community to find housing in the city, according to Brantford Native Housing.

Alma Arguello, BNH executive director, told Six Nations elected council last week that the most recent point-in-time (PIT) count in Brantford showed that of the 156 homeless people who were interviewed in the city, 58 self-identified as Indigenous.

The reason for the disproportionate representation, said Arguello, are systemic barriers stemming from the Indian Act. And she said the PIT count, conducted in 2021 in conjunction with Statistics Canada, doesn’t even tell the whole story.

It doesn’t capture the whole homeless population because it fails to take into account what she said is the “hidden homeless” - people who couch surf or live in institutions or temporary shelters.

Arguello said hidden homelessness is on the increase in Brantford, as are waitlists for affordable housing.

Indigenous homelessness in Brantford will reach a boiling point on June 1 when Brantford Native Housing runs out of housing to support all the

people on its waitlist, she said.

Women and children make up the majority of BNH clients.

“We have actually used all of our housing stock,” said Arguello.

Currently, 85 per cent of units run by BNH house children and 100 per cent of BNH clients who are women have faced gender based or sexual violence.

It is harder for women with children to leave a violent situation, said Arguello, and once a woman becomes homeless, her risk of becoming a victim of violence gets even higher.

Violence is a leading cause of women’s homelessness in Canada and Indigenous women are three times more likely to be victimized by violence than non-Indigenous women, according to statistics.

Precarious housing also increases a woman’s risk of being a victim of violence or human trafficking.

BNH is looking to develop a townhouse complex on Campbell Street that will have 12 transitional housing units for two spirited people.

Arguello sought a letter of support from elected council last week as she described the units they aim to build, with full support from the City of Brantford.

Elected Chief Mark Hill expressed frustration at the lack of funding for native housing in Brantford, despite the statistics found by point-in-time counts.

“It’s quite bothersome at times,” he said. “Our people drive the data,” he said, but then local agencies and organizations don’t get the

funding or services needed.

“I cannot do this without your support,” Arguello told council. “I cannot address this issue without your support. Most of our urban indigenous community comes from Six Nations.”

Coun. Melba Thomas pointed out that Six Nations people move to Brantford because they can’t find housing on the reserve.

“They’re living in hotels in Brantford as a result of Six nations’ need for housing," said Coun. Melba Thomas.

Meanwhile, Ganohkwasra Family Assault Support Services is also looking for funding to build more transitional housing units on Sunrise Court.

Elected Council agreed to provide a letter of support for Ganohkwasra’s $2.7 million ask to Indigenous Services Canada to add more units to its second-step housing complex which will include family units and single person units.

“I’m just hoping council will be supportive of this initiative,” said Ganohkwasra Executive Director Sandra Montour.

The transitional housing program helps clients escaping domestic violence gain life skills while providing them stable housing for up to two years.

“We’re very proud of our programming there,” said Montour. “We teach life skills. This is a program. It’s not just housing.”

The aim is to help clients break the cycle of poverty and not return to their abusers.

TWO ROW TIMES

Indigenous entrepreneurs have until June 21 to submit their business ideas to the 2022 Pow Wow Pitch competition.

The event invites Indigenous entrepreneurs from across Turtle Island to pitch their best business plans for a chance to win up to $25,000 in prizes. It aims to shine a spotlight on pow wow vendors, artists, business builders and innovators from all backgrounds and industries, whether just starting or looking to grow to the next level.

This year, more than 2,500 Indigenous entrepreneurs will pitch their businesses online and in-person for a chance to win cash prizes ranging from $100 to $25,000, with a total of $200,000 in cash prizes to give away.

Open to First Nations, Inuit, Métis and Indigenous, participants of any age — startup businesses and existing enterprises looking to grow can participate.

“Our mission is to provide platforms, programs and resources to support

Indigenous entrepreneurs to start and grow thriving and sustainable businesses that make a difference,” stated the organization’s website. “It’s about people. Our vision is for every Indigenous entrepreneur to feel supported by a community cheering them on as they take action on their ideas and build businesses rooted in Indigenous culture.”

Sunshine Tenasco, from Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg, started Pow Wow Pitch because she believes entrepreneurship is the path to self-sufficiency.

“Entrepreneurship is a big part of Indigenous heritage. We used to call it trade— we are just reawakening to entrepreneurship,” said Tenasco, a former competitor on the CBC pitch show Dragons' Den. “Being on Dragons Den changed my life path.

When Brett Wilson and Arlene Dickinson (two very influential business people) invested and believed in me, it gave me the courage to continue my entrepreneurship journey. I hope that Pow Wow Pitch helps to give that gift to someone else. I love seeing entrepreneurs succeed,” said Tenasco.

2021 Pow Wow Pitch winners: The first-place prize of $25,000 presented

by RBC went to Harlan Wade Kingfisher, founder and CEO of Smudge The Blades, from Sturgeon Lake First Nation, Sask.

Smudge The Blades is an Indigenous brand and hockey apparel company that provides hockey scholarships to Indigenous youth.

The second-place prize of $10,000 presented by Facebook went to Ecko Aleck, founder and artist at Sacred Matriarch Creative, from the Nlaka'pamux Nation and Pentlatch, B.C. Sacred Matriarch Creative provides safe spaces for sharing sacred stories and fostering creativity.

The third-place prize of $5,000 presented by Shopify went to Bernice Clarke, Inuit owner and founder of Uasau Soap Inc. from Iqaluit. Uasau Soap provides sustainably sourced Indigenous soaps made with traditional Inuit practices.

In total, $50,000 in cash prizes was awarded to Indigenous entrepreneurs.

Revenues down for Six Nations economic development corporation DONNA DURIC

donna@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

The Six Nations of the Grand River Economic Development Corp. made $23 million in 2021- down from the almost $30 million it took home in 2020.

On-reserve enterprises (Six Nations Bingo being one of them) lost about $4 million in revenue in 2021, accounting for the largest decrease in the corporation’s five revenue streams, the other four being off-reserve enterprises, trust income, joint ventures, and amortization of deferred capital contributions.

But while revenue decreased, so did expenses.

Operating costs dropped from $10 million in 2020 to $7.3 million in 2021.

Salaries and benefits dropped from $4.4 million to $4.1 million while interest payments increased, from $1.4 million to $2.2 million.

Total expenses dropped from $18.9 million to $16.1 million.

The corporation still walked away with an excess revenue of $7.2 million in 2021. In 2020, the corporation had $10.9 million in excess revenue.

From the excess revenue, $1.8 million was given to the Economic Development Trust (EDT) in 2021. The EDT disperses funds to community projects and organizations every year through an application and grant system.

The Six Nations Bingo Hall was closed for much of the pandemic in the past two years, as were other on-reserve operations under the SNGRDC, including Chiefswood Park and The Gathering Place.

Despite the loss in revenue, SNGRDC highlights the launch of its online bingo operations and recognition as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies as achieve-

ments in 2021.

SNGRDC, through the economic development trust, plans to disperse almost $2 million this year.

Six Nations Housing will be the largest recipient, at an estimated $1.06 million. Other contributions include (estimated): the Six Nations Language Commission, at $300,000; Kayanase Greenhouse, at $203,000; Ganohkwasra, at $280,000; and Woodland Cultural Centre, at $68,000, as well as other community projects.

The number of employees at SNGRDC dropped, too, from 129 employees in 2019, to 76 employees in 2021.

SNGRDC was launched in 2015 to manage economic ventures on and off reserve with the aim of building economic self-sufficiency on Six Nations.

SNGRDC published its annual report last week and can be found on its Website and Facebook page.

Tree planting at Woodland Cultural Centre STAFF REPORT

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

Survivors of the former Mohawk Institute Residential School in Brantford took another step in their healing journey after a tree-planting ceremony on the grounds last week.

The ceremony, attended

by Indigenous Services Canada Minister Marc Miller, saw Mohawk Institute survivors and students from The Everlasting Tree School plant 10 apple trees on the property, a symbolic act that brought back painful memories for survivor Roberta Hill.

She remembers wanting to eat the apples that grew in the orchard behind the school so badly, but the students were forbidden from eating the fruit.

The Mohawk Institute, or Mush Hole as it became known (in reference to the bland, sticky porridge kids

were endlessly served for breakfast), closed down in 1971.

The church-run school was one of many residential schools across the country that were part of a 150-year effort by the Canadian government to strip Indigenous children of their identity in order to assimilate them into Canadian culture.

Countless students died, and almost all said they faced some sort of physical, spiritual, emotional, mental and/or sexual abuse while attending the schools.

Last week’s ceremony was a powerful reminder that the attempted assimilation failed, as Everlasting Tree School students performed a traditional ceremony on the very grounds that saw kids punished for even attempting to speak their own language.

Hill was joined by survivors Geronimo Henry and Sherlene Bomberry, who spoke of their gratitude for

being a part of the healing ceremony.

The planting came almost a year after the first discovery of a mass grave at a former residential school in British Columbia that sent shockwaves around the world.

Since then, thousands of children’s remains, formerly hidden, have been unearthed at residential schools across the country.

The discoveries prompted a push for a search of the Mohawk Institute using ground-penetrating radar for potential hidden graves.

The search started last fall and was put on hold through the winter.

The Six Nations Survivors’ Secretariat, a coalition formed to oversee the search, was hoping they would receive $24 million over three years to complete the search of almost 200 hectares surrounding the school. They’ve only received $10 million.

Community garden underway

Plowing got underway on a roughly three-acre community garden last week on Sixth Line Road. Six Nations man Chad General is spearheading the project. Planting is expected to take place this week.

The resulting produce will be shared with the community.

Canada remains complicit in destroying our kinship and clan systems and halting the speaking of our languages

RACHEL A. SNOW

TWO ROW TIMES

Canada is weaving its continued web of lies around legislation, policy and promises to the original peoples, the First Nations peoples of this land.

In 2015, Justin Trudeau stated that the most important relationship to him was with the Indigenous peoples. He then divided the department of Indian Affairs into Programs and services and Crown Relations.

This division has allowed Trudeau and his henchmen or henchwomen to trick First Nations into signing agreements that take the inherent or treaty rights of First Nations and domesticate these rights into some shoddy service delivery package.

Initially, Jody Wilson Raybould, Trudeau’s star Indian, was tasked with this responsibility. She quickly came up with 10 points to follow in order to have all Indigenous groups – this includes the Metis and Inuit - fighting

for limited dollars from federal announcements.

The division of Indian Affairs was necessary because Trudeau could not easily fund the Metis under Indian Affairs but because this department is now divided into programs and services, then the big dollar amounts announced are up for grabs for all “Indigenous” peoples. This is a direct affront to the original peoples, the First peoples who occupied this land and made treaties or sacred covenants to share the land with the newcomers. Canada is not able to budge the Haudenosaunee with their land back efforts. Canada continues to send armed troops into Wet’suwet’en territory in Northern British Colombia and Canada continues to monitor the tiny House Warriors who are holding the land against Trans Mountain. And at the eastern door, Canada continues to renege on two decisions made by their court system for Mi’kmaq fisheries.

How has this insidious turn come about? Canada began when they took children from families.

They intended to break families, clans and communities. Canada along with churches such as the Catholic church intended

to Christianize or beat or assimilate the “Indian” out of every First Nation person who had the gall to stay living.

Canada believes their whitewashed history and genocidal attacks on First Nations through starvation, herding people onto reserves and taking children would break the original people. Canada’s actions did not break the First Nations. Canada’s actions forced First Nations to hide their languages and ceremonies. Canada did not stop the First Nations from their practices because Canada did not understand that each First Nation and their practices are tied to the land. Canada did not understand that these sacred undertakings and laws can never be lost because they are spiritual laws. The laws of the Creator are written in every river, every tree or plant and the land that provides for the first occupants of this Great Island.

Canada continues to try to talk about reconciliation which means assimilation or termination.

Canada cannot reconcile anything until they firstly began to acknowledge the genocidal truth of their actions on this land.

Canada wants the global audience to believe that they are magnanimous…

Volume 9, Issue 45 Make advertising cheques payable to:

Garlow Media

and fair partners with the First Nation descendants of the original tribes or nations who roamed this land. Canada is lying to the global audience and to the universe.

Once unmarked graves were found outside Kamloops Indian Residential school… a global cry of shock, outrage and despair was heard throughout the cosmos. Canada could no longer deny the First Nation’s residential school survivors’ claims of isolation, abuse and possible deaths of children in these institutions.

To this day, many First Nation elders are unable to speak about their experiences because they experienced harms or hunger, and severe isolation from loving parents and their extended families. Canada and the churches would paint residential schools as a humane offering to teach and acculturate First Nation children.

The First Nation narrative is different from the whitewashed Canadian version. But it is not possible to fight the tidal waves of denialism written by non-First Nation men who believe a simple breakdown of established “facts” will bring clarity to the Indian residential schools.

Non-First Nation, white

male writers continue to write for mainstream papers, questioning the contents of the unmarked graves that are located close to some of the old residential schools still in existence. These male non-native writers are somehow “authorities” because they can string together dates, and reports that detail what happened in the Indian Residential schools. These primarily white male writers rely on the documents of the church and Canada to paint a rosy picture that makes genocide more palatable.

We, the First Nations must continue to put out the narrative of our ancestors against this tsunami of denialism. We must continue to tell our children the stories handed down by our grandmothers and grandfathers that speak of fear, homesickness and a cesspool of harms. Our people have been and continue to be targeted because they are the actual owners of the land.

Some of our people, those from federally funded organizations tried to get an apology from the pope in 2022. All the complicit federally funded organizations ran down the Vatican steps crying… “we got an apology”.

Thank you for your advertising support!

No, the pope did not apologize for the actions of the church. The pope apologized for the bad behaviour of the few that were acting in an educational capacity. That is not a real apology by the church for the physical, mental, sexual and emotional harms that the church itself caused. The apology is to say, we are aware that “something… might have happened to children in the residential school system”. That is not a strong message. It is a weak way for the church to say “we should have hired better teachers”.

So, Canada remains complicit, along with the churches. They are complicit in the breaking of our governance systems, destroying our kinship and clan systems and halting the speaking of our languages.

The pope plans to venture to Canada and he will say nothing about the guilt of the church in causing genocide and intergenerational trauma. How can Canada reconcile with our people if the churches who profited off our deaths remain free? Until there is a day of reckoning for all the original people who suffered harms there will be NO reconciliation on this land.

Green Tip: When roots have developed from the cutting, transfer them to pots with normal potting soil Even though I think it’s safe to start outdoor planting, I don’t want to be held accountable for anyone’s dead plants. I’ll hold off on those tips for a few more weeks and instead talk a bit about how cool it is to start your own propagation stations.

Propagation, propagate, prop, propping; all sounds super science-ey and something that only a real plant-pro would know how to do. But if you’re looking for some thoughtful and

inexpensive gifts, or you just want more of your favourite plant, you can do that by propagating!

Plant propagation is the process by which new plants grow from a variety of sources — seeds, cuttings and other plant

parts. Propagation can also refer to the man-made or natural dispersal of seeds and usually occurs as a step in the overall cycle of plant growth.

If cuttings is the route you choose, you’ll want to keep your cutting in water

for a few weeks until its new roots are roughly two inches long. Then place that cutting in some soil and a pot with drainage and your freshly propagated plant will thrive.

Some plants are ridiculously easy to propagate, like the pothos plant.

Here’s how I did it.

I started water propagating some pothos cuttings in March by snipping the stem about an inch below a node and placing them in test tubes I hung on the wall throughout my home in well-lit areas. And since they’ve been in the water for so long, its roots are in super good shape to be potted — I just think they look really pretty on the wall so I’m not sure when I will get to it.

It’s really important to make your cut below the node!

What is a node? Nodes are little bumps you find on plant stems. Depending on the plant, nodes may be

where new leaves, roots, or stems can grow. On a pothos, its leaf nodes are the areas along the stem where leaves are currently growing.

Once you know where the nodes are on the mother plant, make sure you use a sharp clean knife or garden scissors to make your first snip (you can take as many cuttings as you’d like from the mother plant, just be careful you don’t thin it out too much).

Some planters put rooting powder on their cuttings but I don’t think that’s necessary for a plant that is as easy to propagate as a pothos is. Save the powder for more difficult plants like succulents or snake plants. Not that they are difficult to root, but the rooting process can take a lot longer and I'm not a patient plant dad.

The most important thing is to put your cutting in some sort of vessel with water in it that covers the

area you’ve cut by a few inches. And remembering to change the water every few days or refill the jar; you might be surprised to see just how thirsty a new prop can be. In the beginning, keep an eye on it throughout the day and make sure it is getting at least four hours of sunlight a day. Cuttings are still plants and need a lot of bright indirect light to grow.

Once you see a few inches of root growth where you cut the stem a few weeks ago, plop that prop in some soil, give it a good watering and congratulate yourself on your patience, creativity and new skill you learned.

It’s also very important to take a picture of your new propagation station and share it with me at aestheticSnail@outlook. com. I’d love to offer some help or just congratulate you on a successful prop!

Prison service must do more to remove barriers for Indigenous, Black offenders: AG CANADIAN PRESS

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

OTTAWA — The federal auditor general says Canada's prison service has not given offenders timely access to programs to help ease them back into society, including courses specific to women, Indigenous people and visible minorities.

Auditor general Karen Hogan found Black and Indigenous offenders experienced poorer outcomes than any other groups in the federal correctional system and faced greater barriers to a safe and gradual return to the outside world.

Hogan pointed out her office raised similar issues in audits in 2015, 2016 and 2017, yet the correctional service has done little to change the policies, practices, tools and approaches that produce these differing outcomes.

Hogan says disparities

were present from the moment offenders entered federal institutions.

The process for selecting security classifications saw Indigenous and Black offenders assigned to maximum-security institutions at twice the rate of other groups of offenders.

They also remained in federal custody longer and at higher levels of security before their release.

The audit found that timely access to correctional programs continued to decline across all groups of offenders.

Access to programming, which teaches crucial skills like problem solving and goal setting, worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Of men serving sentences of two to four years who were released from April to December 2021, 94 per cent had not completed the correctional programs they needed before they were first eligible to apply for day parole. ``This is a barrier to

serving the remainder of their sentences under supervision in the community,'' the report says.

The prison service needs to find a different way to organize programming, because ``that timely access is so critical to an offender's successful path forward,'' Hogan said Tuesday at a news conference.

Correctional service efforts to support greater equity, diversity and inclusion in the workplace also fell short, leaving persistent barriers unresolved, the report says.

Close to one-quarter of management and staff had not completed mandatory diversity training a year after the deadline.

In addition, the prison service had not established a plan to build a workforce that reflects the diversity of its offender populations, which has particular relevance for institutions with high numbers of Indigenous and Black offenders, the

Support Indigenous Media

report says.

Hogan noted the correctional service has acknowledged systemic racism in the system, initiating an anti-racism framework to identify and remove systemic barriers.

The service has agreed to act on the auditor general's recommendations to remedy the various issues she identified.

Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino stressed efforts toward ``rooting out racism in all of its forms'' by diversifying the prison service's workforce, improving our training and collecting data to inform policies. ``And we know we've got a long way to go.''

Mendicino noted he recently directed the correctional service head to create a new position of deputy commissioner for Indigenous corrections, saying it will ensure the overrepresentation of Indigenous offenders in the system, especially women, is addressed.

Justin Trudeau offers prayer for reconciliation at National Prayer Breakfast CANADIAN PRESS

TWO ROW TIMES

OTTAWA _ Prime Minister Justin Trudeau offered a prayer of peace and spoke of moving together on the difficult path of reconciliation at Tuesday's National Prayer Breakfast.

Trudeau delivered remarks to MPs and guests gathered together in downtown Ottawa for the annual event, which is non-partisan but attended by many Conservative MPs. It was the first time it has been held in person since the COVID-19 pandemic began.

Trudeau, who was seated next to Opposition Conservative Leader Candice Bergen for the event, says he knows public health measures introduced to stem the spread of the virus have been hard on faith communities, which have found new ways to worship.

``But I know that the choir never sounds quite as good on Zoom,'' he said, while some in the room laughed. ``It's good to be back together, all together.''

The prime minister told the crowd that prayer offers a chance for reflection, including the Catholic prayers he grew up with.

Trudeau then offered up a short prayer in which he asked for collective guidance with moving forward ``on the sometimes difficult but necessary paths of reconciliation.'' ``Our country has been a welcoming haven since its origins. This vast land, with its abundance of beauty and natural riches, has been the home to peoples for millennia,'' he said. ``We pray, Lord, for peace, and ask you to open our minds and our hearts because, as Christ said, 'I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full.'''

Indigenous filmmaker says he was refused entry on Cannes red carpet for his moccasins CANADIAN PRESS

TWO ROW TIMES

TORONTO — A Dene filmmaker says he was ``disappointed'' and ``close to tears'' when security at the Cannes Film Festival blocked him from walking the red carpet while dressed in a pair of moccasins.

Kelvin Redvers, a Vancouver-based producer who attended Cannes as part of a delegation of six Indigenous filmmakers, says he was refused entry to the carpet for Valeria Bruni Tedeschi's ``Les Amandiers'' last Sunday because festival staff didn't approve of his traditional Indigenous footwear.

He says he was only allowed to walk the carpet if he swapped out his moccasins for a pair of formal shoes that Cannes deemed appropriate.

Redvers obliged, but he says he hopes speaking out about his experience

leads Cannes organizers to rethink what counts as formal wear when it comes to representing different cultures on their red carpets. ``Whenever there's an opportunity — if there's an award show or a special event — it's really important for me to be able to bring in a bit of my Dene heritage,'' he said. ``My goal was to wear my suit, and my bowtie and my Dene moccasins, which are formal, they're cultural. And they're still sort of elegant and classy.

I had no reason to believe that they wouldn't fit on the red carpet.''

Cannes is notoriously strict about formalwear at many of its red carpet premieres — requiring a black tie for men and evening gowns for women — however, some traditional formal wear is accommodated, such as Scottish kilts and Indian saris.

The festival once outlined some of the formalwear expectations on their website, but in

recent years — after a number of controversies, including one involving women wearing flats instead of heels — the official guidelines have all but disappeared online.

Before the Sunday screening, Redvers says he gathered with his fellow filmmakers to take photos in their tuxedos and moccasins. The group, who were in Cannes with the support of Telefilm, the Indigenous Screen Office, and Capilano University's FILMBA program, then headed to the red carpet.

After getting past the first security checkpoint, Redvers pulled off his pair of street shoes and stepped into his moccasins. That is when security at a second checkpoint stopped him.

Various levels of Cannes red carpet officials were brought in to assess the situation, Redvers says, while a French-speaking member of his cohort tried to explain to security, ``this is cultural wear, this is traditional. They were

Canada's big banks treat Indigenous customers unequally: watchdog CANADIAN PRESS

Pressure sales tactics.

Ill-fitted suggestions. Misleading information.

Visible minority and Indigenous customers at Canada's big banks more often received inappropriate treatment from sales staff, part of a wider trend of ``concerning'' interactions between those institutions and shoppers, a federal consumer watchdog has found.

In a mystery shopping review conducted in 2019 by the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada, customers who identified as a visible minority or Indigenous person more frequently encountered recommendations that were less simple and unsuitable to their financial circumstances compared

with shoppers who did not identify as such.

They were also pitched more heavily on optional products. One in three were offered overdraft protection _ the service guarantees that charges to a debit account will clear even if the balance falls below zero, but often involves heavy fees and interest _ versus 18 per cent of other shoppers.

They were also three times more likely to be offered balance protection insurance, according to the report, released Thursday. ``These findings indicate that banks can do more to ensure that the demographic groups at higher risk are protected from experiencing concerning sales practices,'' the federal agency said, highlighting younger shoppers and students as well.

Mystery shopping is a method of market research where individuals use semi-scripted scenarios to pose as customers and and talk with employees, in this case at bank branches. The shoppers, who recorded their observations, asked about chequing accounts and credit cards and reported on their interactions.

Overall, the report found 74 per cent of the shoppers at 712 bank branches described their experiences as positive.

However, the agency said the banks could improve service when it comes to product recommendations and employee communication. ``Canada's banks are client-focused with a deep commitment to high ethical standards and complying with established laws and regulations when providing products and

just not hearing it.'' ``Eventually one security guard just hit his breaking point,'' Redvers says. ``He just switched and was ... furiously demanding immediately that I leave, in an aggressive and angry tone, saying, 'Leave, leave, you must leave now.'''

Representatives for the festival did not respond to requests for comment.

After the heated moment, Redvers decided he still wanted to attend the screening, so he took off his moccasins and went into the theatre. ``I was so disappointed, like, it was actually distracting during the

movie,'' he says. ``I just couldn't stop thinking about not being allowed to represent my culture on the red carpet on this world stage.'' ``I was pretty close to tears and quite upset,'' he added.

After members of Telefilm and the Indigenous Screen Office complained to Cannes about the treatment the filmmakers received, Redvers says leadership agreed to meet with them and apologize for the negative experience. ``I think it was a productive meeting,'' he said. ``It's an educational time because they just didn't understand what

moccasins were and why they were important. (They) just kind of thought of them as slippers, which is what they said a few times.''

Cannes officials invited him to wear his moccasins at the red carpet premiere of David Cronenberg's ``Crimes of the Future'' the following night. When one security guard rejected his footwear at that screening, a higher-up staff member intervened and let him onto the carpet. ``That was probably the most satisfying moment of the festival,'' he says. ``To be able to rock the mocs on the red carpet.''

Canada's banks failing Indigenous continued from page 9 services to help customers meet their financial goals,'' the Canadian Bankers Association said in an email, noting that a majority of mystery shoppers described their overall experience as positive.

Credit cards were a particular area of concern.

Some 28 per cent of credit card suggestions were for premium cards that require a baseline income of $60,000 or a household income of $100,000, the report stated. But four in five shoppers received no questions about their income ``at any point when a premium card was recommended.''

Some 15 per cent of chequing account interactions and 20 per cent of credit card chats ``led to recommendations that shoppers did not find appropriate for their needs,''

the agency said.

While only three per cent of sit-downs resulted in shoppers feeling pressured to sign up for a product or service, that low proportion ``does not tell the full story,'' the study found. Twelve per cent of customers said they were pitched products or services at least twice, and that some employees ``explicitly attempted to overcome'' the turndowns of wouldbe clients. ``Despite these reports, many in this group did not report feeling pressured,'' the agency added, noting shoppers define pressure differently.

New federal rules that come into effect June 30 aim to enhance customer protections by obliging banks to speed up complaint processes and sell

products and services that are aligned with clients' financial needs. ``We expect banks to focus on the areas for improvement that have been identified as they implement Canada's new financial consumer protection framework and ensure they consider the needs and abilities of consumers, including those in vulnerable circumstances,'' agency commissioner Judith Robertson said in a release.

Canada's Bix Six banks are the Bank of Montreal, Bank of Nova Scotia, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, National Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Canada and Toronto-Dominion Bank.

ONTARIO — On May 26, Major Series Lacrosse, the senior-A box lacrosse league based in On-tario, announced that it has postponed the start of its regular season.

Potential litigation was cited as the main risk for the MSL. Full details were not provided by the league on the potential litigation, but a statement was released by the MSL League Commission-er, Doug Luey: “It is with tremendous disappointment that Major Series Lacrosse must postpone the start of the 2022 season. The financial risk brought on by potential litigation is just too great to overcome by both our privately and community operated teams,” reads the statement.

“MSL will not be issuing any further comment on the matter until all stakeholders have come to satisfactory resolution. We want to thank all that have reached out and offered their support dur-ing these difficult time. We can’t wait to hit the floor.”

The MSL, which is sanctioned by the Ontario Lacrosse Association, had originally planned to start its season Saturday with the Six Nations Chiefs playing at Owen Sound.

Pre-season, the Six Nations Chiefs played Brooklin Lacrosse Club, with volunteer officiates at the Iroquois Lacrosse

Arena. Officiates did not attend that game due to the OLA not assigning officials to the game because of the dispute between the two sides. With no penalties recorded, the game final appears on the MSL website.

It was noted by the MSL commissioner within the statement that once the risk is minimized, the resolution will bring teams, players, officials and fans back to the arena.

The league includes teams such as the Oakville Rock, Peterborough Lakers, Cobourg Kodiaks and Brooklin Lacrosse Club.

However, the OLA still lists the Brampton Excelsiors on its website despite the team’s apparent move to Owen Sound, while the MSL features Owen Sound La-crosse.

The MSL and the other top senior league in Canada, the Western Lacrosse Association based in B.C., cancelled their respective 2020 and 2021 seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The league winners square off each year for the Mann Cup. The Canadian national senior-A indoor lacrosse championship dates back to 1910.

The next game scheduled in the MSL shows a match between Owen Sound and Six Nations at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena at 7:30pm, without an updated location.

Buffalo finished the regular season with a league best 14-4 record.

After winning their Quarterfinal matchup against

the Albany FireWolves, 10-5, the Bandits took the series against the Toronto Rock two games to none for their second straight NLL Finals appearance, winning both games by a single goal. The Bandits’

last championship came in 2008, when they defeated the Portland LumberJax, 14-13, in the single game final. Buffalo has three other titles in franchise history (1992, 1993, 1996).

Colorado finished the regular season with a 10-8 record and was the third seed in the West heading into the NLL Playoffs. In the Quarterfinal matchup, the Mammoth defeated the defending champi-

on Calgary Roughnecks, 16-12. The Colorado Mammoth franchise won the first championship in league history in 1987 as the Baltimore Thunder.

This is the first meeting between Colorado and Buffalo in the playoffs since the Mammoth defeated the Bandits for the title, 16-9, in 2006 for the club’s only other title in franchise history. Since relocating to Colorado in 2002, the Mammoth lead the series against Buffalo 11-8.

Community Sport Fund now open

By TRT Staff with notes from ISWO.ca The Community Sport Fund (CSF) provided by the Indigenous Sport and Wellness (ISWO) organization is now open for applications.

Eligible organizations are invited to apply for funding of up to $5000 to support new, existing, and, or expanded projects that address a community social development need by directly supporting new or continued sport, recreation, and physical activity participation opportunities in their communities.

The CSF is an initiative of ISWO’s Well Nation program. The program is intended to increase opportunities for participation in sport, recreation, and physical activity while building community capacity and decreasing behaviours that can have long-term negative consequences. The CSF supports projects that utilize sport as a positive agent to impact social change, helping to achieve social development outcomes in

Indigenous communities.

Proposals that outline how culturally grounded sport, recreation and physical activity opportunities will support overall wellness will be considered for funding.

The CSF is intended to make community sport, physical activity, and Indigenous approaches to wellness more accessible to people of all ages and abilities. ISWO encourages remote and rural communities where sport-related opportunities are fewer, and large urban Indigenous populations where low participation rates may exist, to apply.

The CSF is supported through contributions from the Government of Canada, under STREAM 1 of the Sport for Social Development in Indigenous Communities (SSDIC) initiative, administered by Sport Canada.

For the purposes of this fund, “sport” is being defined broadly. Activities that could be viewed as recreation or physical activity are permissible if they include a physical ac-

tivity component, and are chosen and supported by the community. The CSF is distinct from sport development as it is focused on the achievement of community social development needs. Your project must also be designed in a way that includes measurable outcomes for the four community social development needs.

Applicants must demonstrate how their project will: Lead to new or continued sport participation opportunities.

Increase the number of people involved in organized sport activities in their community. Increase the capacity of the community to deliver additional or enhanced sport, recreation, and physical activity programming as a direct result of this funding; an in addition, stream 2 applicants must demonstrate how their project will encourage and enhance women and girls’ participation in sport through all stages of life.

The deadline to apply is June 13, 2022 on the ISWO website.
