Crown will appeal “not guilty” verdict in Peter Khill trial STAFF REPORT
editor@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
BRANTFORD — Over 1,000 people were in attendance on Saturday to launch the inaugural weekend of the Oakhill Marketplace. The new space is the second market space for Six Nations businessman John General. General said, “I started the Six Nations Marketplace in December of 2017 because I wanted to give our local small business owners and artists a voice and a vehicle to be seen and heard.” And the response has been huge. With an ongoing schedule of special events booked each weekend and vendors filling the market spaces, calling the Marketplaces a success is an understatement. Earlier this year a spring Easter egg hunt brought hundreds out for an evening of fun at the Six Nations Marketplace. Now, the Oakhill location is looking to be as capable and popular at drawing in crowds for their fun family events. General says he hopes the new location will draw even more people out to Six Nations to get a taste of the local culture. “A lot of potential customers either can't make it to our on reserve location or for one reason or another believe they're not welcome on the reserve," he said. "I hope with this second location we can introduce more Native arts to our non-InSUBMITTED PHOTOS digenous friends.”
HAMILTON — The shooting death of Jonathan Styres will be heard in the Court of Appeal. Six Nations Justice Department announced Friday afternoon that they received notice from the Attorney General that the Crown will appeal the “not guilty” verdict for Peter Khill in the shooting death of Jonathan Styres. “We are relieved that the Crown is moving ahead with the appeal.” said Barb General, director of the Six Nations Justice Department. “The verdict has left people feeling like it is open season for violence on Indigenous people – we are grateful that the Crown is continuing to fight for justice in this case.” The elected band council voted unanimously earlier this month to banish Khill from the Six Nations of the Grand River territory — where Styres

was from and his family still resides. Khill, 28, admitted at trial that he shot Styres on the morning of Feb. 4, 2016, but pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder, saying he fired in self-defence when he thought Styres was pointing a gun at him. The jury at last month’s trial heard that Styres did not have a gun. Khill’s defence said at trial that he saw Styres
breaking into his truck in the middle of the night and he fell back on his army reserve training, taking his shotgun outside to “neutralize the threat.” Following the June 27 verdict, Six Nations Chief Ava Hill questioned how Indigenous people could have faith in a justice system that “fails to hold anyone accountable for the taking of a life.”

Investigators say the motel room used by one of the accused was searched on Thursday and officers seized more than 76 grams of fentanyl and a small amount of marijuana. A 23-year-old Hamilton man is charged with possession of fentanyl for the
purpose of trafficking and possession of marijuana. Fentanyl is an opioid painkiller that is 50 to 100 times more powerful than heroin. It can be lethal even in small amounts, making it especially dangerous for users and responding officers alike.

Nature Connections
Dancing season has come EDITORIAL BY CHEZNEY MARTIN
By Quin Staats
That's just the way she grows
Dance has been called the universal language. It thrives within cultures around the world as part of ceremonial, physical and spiritual expression — or even just for enjoyment and fun. It has even been used as a form of sacrifice and as a form of worship. But how did dancing come to be? After viewing the mating ritual of a bird of paradise, it is difficult not to call the male birds' intrinsic movements a dance. Thus the debate as to whether or not the ability to dance is unique to humans or rooted into our shared evolutionary development with the animal kingdom is ongoing. It is believed through the vocal hypothesis that the ability to move to a beat is limited to only vocally oriented species, or species that are vocal learners, including parrots,
songbirds, dolphins, whales and sea lions. But the hypothesis was challenged after concluding that dancing is a by-product of imitation, as many people can tap their foot to a beat naturally and without imitation. In humans though, dancing has always gone hand-in-hand with music. The origins of ancient dances have been found in 9,000-yearold India and 5,300-year-old Egypt. Even before the arrival of language, the earliest human cultures evolved utilizing oral and physical performance to pass stories and knowledge from one generation to the next. Celebratory and ritual dances are believed by historians to be two of the essential factors in the advancement of the earliest human civilizations. Dancing itself cannot be defined by a single or simple form of
movement. Dancing is fluid and can constantly evolve and change depending on the innovation of the dancer. The overall skills involved in dance include moving in time to a rhythm or beat and synchronizing movements with another individual. Music and dancing evolved together as one, just as the slow Wasase became the fast Smoke Dance. And with powwow season in full swing it will be easy to witness dancers dancing dances that were danced by the bodies of ancestors. Their movements will either imitate or innovate their chosen styles and their regalia will reflect upon the craftsmanship of their families or people. They will be continuing a tradition that has been carried by many before them — viewing their triumph in the heat of summer will be equal to watching history be made.
Have you ever come into crossing with a gathering of trees or a small forest and noticed anything peculiar, or especially out of the ordinary? I have. Not one forest is the same, and they are by far anything close to being perfect. This being said, I suppose it wouldn’t be too out of the ordinary to notice something out of the ordinary. But for me, I always seem to notice a particular type of tree every time. Big forests are, without saying, one of the most magical places one can find themselves. But I’ve taken a new liking to the much smaller, more intimate ones. When there aren’t as many trees all bunched up together it’s easier for me to observe the nature of the trees as individuals as well as part of a community. This one thing I always happened to notice is that it seemed as though every
small grouping of trees had one to a few trees that were growing the wrong way. Unlike their fellow community members that grew straight up and down, the select few would grow sideways and vertical. All the other trees stood tall and together, reaching straight up towards the sun just as trees were designed to do. But, these adventurists would grow left and right, diagonally and crooked, against the “code” of the way a tree should grow. Yet, nonetheless, their leaves still found their way to the sunshine. They still withstood the same winds and rains, and turned red and gold in the fall just the same. In a way, I’ve always seen a little bit of myself in these “eclectic growers”. They don’t take the path most taken and instead grow into a swirly-quirky and sturdy life force. May-
be they decided to take a different path, or maybe that's just what they resorted to with whatever fate had dealt them. Maybe, as these trees matured, growing straight up wasn’t always an option, facing obstacles within the “normal” path. The branches instead would curl in resilience and find a way to make it work in some relentless persistence to survive. They simply do not give up. And so, if I were a tree I guess I would be one of those guys. Sometimes things can stand in the way of what we think we are supposed to be doing. Obstacles can present themselves right in the middle of what we were doing. But at the end of the day, growing a little sideways doesn’t hurt, and it certainly doesn’t mean we still aren’t going to reach the top.

Newfoundland politician seeks 'Discovery Day' name change CANADIAN PRESS
editor@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
ST. JOHN’S — A movement is afoot to change the name of a holiday recognizing Europeans' so-called ``discovery'' of Newfoundland and Labrador. A St. John's city councillor said Discovery Day ignores the existence of the province's Indigenous people. Maggie Burton introduced a notice of motion at council on Monday evening, calling on the provincial government to find a more ``appropriate'' name, and asking that the city refer to the holiday as St. John's Day in the meantime. Discovery Day is a designated provincial holiday, falling on the first Monday after June 24th to coincide with explorer John Cabot's arrival in 1497. The province first celebrated
Discovery Day in 1997, 500 years later. Burton said Tuesday use of the term ``discovery'' disregards the presence of Indigenous people who lived in the province long before Cabot's voyage. She is supportive of recognizing the significance of Cabot's voyage, but takes issue with the implication that the European explorer ``discovered'' the province. ``The problem is the word 'discovery,''' Burton said. ``It's just inaccurate, so if we were to commemorate in some other way I would be supportive of that. It's just not a factual description.'' Burton's notice follows a growing public discussion around the name's outdated connotations. Speaking from the Assembly of First Nations conference in Vancouver, Chief Mi'Sel Joe of the Miawpukek First Nation
said he hasn't spoken to the provincial government about re-naming Discovery Day, but would like to see a new name. ``I would call it Non-Discovery Day, right off the bat,'' said Joe. ``Who discovered who? We were already here.'' Joe suggested ``First Nations Honour Day'' as a possible alternative, but said coming up with an inclusive new title will take some time and consideration. ``It's not an easy thing and it's not a small thing. It's a big thing to change, not that I like it, but to change to something that's more meaningful.'' Premier Dwight Ball's office said in a statement Tuesday that the province would be open to discussing a name change if approached by Indigenous organizations. ``Reconciliation arises from dialogue with Indigenous people,'' the statement said.
``If the provincial government were to receive representation from one or more Indigenous governments or organizations about the Discovery Day holiday, the provincial government would engage in discussions with them in the spirit of the important and informed dialogue we have already established with Indigenous leaders.'' The statement also noted that Discovery Day is not a public holiday under the Labour Standards Act, but many employees in the province still have the day off through their collective agreements. Memorial University of Newfoundland spokesperson David Sorensen said the university also hopes to negotiate changing the name of Discovery Day in its collective agreements with staff, starting as early as this fall. The university's calendar follows the holidays
of the province, but has changed the names of provincially recognized holidays like St. Patrick's Day and Orangemen's Day, which are currently listed as Mid-March and Mid-July holidays in the university's calendar. Sorensen said if the change to the collective agreements is approved, Discovery Day could be referred to as the Mid-June holiday by next year. Kelly Anne Butler, Aboriginal affairs officer at the university's Grenfell campus, said the change is ``long overdue,'' and that it's damaging for Indigenous people to see the date of European contact listed on public calendars. ``It really does erase you as a human being,'' said Butler. ``When we celebrate a holiday we sort of re-emphasize what it stands for. In this case, every single year, we as a province are re-empha-
sizing something that's false, and has the effect of damaging Indigenous people because it's erasing their history.'' Butler said the term takes a Eurocentric view of history, and the language stems from old concepts like terra nullius and the doctrine of discovery that were used to justify European colonization of the country centuries ago. While even the name ``Newfoundland'' draws from the similar notion that the province was ``found'' by Europeans, Butler said renaming the June holiday will be a less difficult conversation, given that it was only named Discovery Day 20 years ago. ``It's not something that's going to upset some sort of idea of what Newfoundland and Labrador is," Butler said. "It's going to upset the doctrine of discovery, but that needs to be upset.''

Residency bylaw violator appeals for exemption amid abuse allegations NAHNDA GARLOW
nahnda@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
SIX NATIONS — Six Nations Elected Council heard an appeal by a woman evicted from Six Nations on July 10, challenging an eviction letter and requesting she be allowed to stay on the territory.
Jennifer MacDonald, who says she is Mohawk, was sent an eviction letter from SNEC earlier this month after several complaint letters informed the council she was not a band member and was residing on the territory in violation of the Six Nations residency bylaw.
MacDonald’s husband Nathan is a Six Nations of the Grand River band member and they have been married and living in the community for 17 years. SNEC Councillor Mark Hill said that while the current residency bylaw, which was written in the 1980’s, is outdated, it is the responsibility of
the council to adhere to issuing eviction notices to those residing on the territory in violation of the current bylaw. To date, only those people whose names appear on the Six Nations of the Grand River band membership have permission to live on the Six Nations Reserve. Jennifer MacDonald
said she is not listed as a Mohawk with any band in Canada. She claims family connections to the St. Regis Mohawks but says due to various family members being "disenfranchised" by the Canadian government that she no longer has status and cannot get status. MacDonald claimed that she has never accessed services of the Six Nations community in the 17 years she has been living here in violation of the bylaw, and claims the notice informing council of that violation is a personal attack. “This has come to a vindictive act to remove somebody because they don’t like someone,” said MacDonald as she was before the council asking to be allowed to stay. The HCCC Council Secretary sent a letter saying the Confederacy Council “…approved her request to continue residing on the territory as the council continues to investigate the situation. She has produced documentation of her mother’s family, determining her lineage as Mohawk Nation Bear Clan.” Official complaints were sent to SNEC, with a long list of concerns not only of the residency bylaw violation but also alleging mean-spirited and psychologically abusive behaviour by the MacDonalds towards youth in the community. Members of the Six Nations Elected Council did not have time to review those concerns prior to the MacDonald’s appealing the eviction notice — they were brought to the council by Councillor Helen Miller after the complainant families learned the MacDonalds were approaching SNEC to ask they be allowed to stay. The complainant families, who have asked their names not be publicly disclosed due to safety concerns for their children, say the ordeal has been traumatizing for their children. According to letters shared with the Two Row Times, the
complainants allege the MacDonalds, both Nathan and Jennifer, have engaged in psychologically aggressive behaviour against a number of Six Nations teens and youth in a series of events lasting at least two years. The complainants allege the MacDonalds enabled and participated in a series of micro aggressions towards youth in the community to the point of those youth seeking medical attention for depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and insomnia. At least four Six Nations families are supporting the claims — one complainant stating that making an official complaint to the band about the residency violation seemed like the only tangible thing she could do to protect the children they feel are being targeted. One of the youth, now 13, told the Two Row Times in an interview she feels unsafe to leave her home and attend public events in the community because of ongoing public humiliation and passive aggressive behaviours by Jennifer MacDonald since she was 11 years old. MacDonald was at the Elected Band Council meeting when two of the complainants stood up and spoke to the council — articulating their safety concerns. Witnesses in the council chambers told Two Row Times that both the MacDonalds laughed and shook their heads when those safety concerns were said aloud by the complainant. According to the complainant families, no one from the HCCC approached them to hear their concerns before the council issued a letter of support for the MacDonalds. However the complainants told Two Row Times a letter outlining the allegations was submitted to a Clan Mother and may be brought to the council for consideration.

Manitoba illegally taking funds: Indigenous child welfare agencies STAFF REPORT
TWO ROW TIMES
WINNIPEG — Indigenous child-welfare agencies in Manitoba say the province is acting illegally and immorally by clawing back money earmarked for kids in care. Six child and family services agencies are
taking the Manitoba government to court alleging the province has taken more than $255 million in funds meant for children in care. Richard De La Ronde, executive director of Sandy Bay Child and Family Services, says in an affidavit that the government is forcing the agency to hand over special allowance payments from the
federal government. He says that if that doesn't happen, the province reduces funding by at least 20 per cent. The Children's Special Allowance Act says the funds are to be used for the care, maintenance and education of children in care. The province says it won't comment on a case before the courts.
North Dakota seeks federal money for pipeline protest costs STAFF REPORT
editor@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
BISMARCK, N.D. — North Dakota is demanding $38 million from the federal government to reimburse the state for costs associated with policing large-scale and prolonged protests against the Dakota Access oil pipeline.
Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem filed an administrative claim Friday against the Army Corps of Engineers, contending the federal agency allowed protesters to illegally camp for months on federal land in southern North Dakota. Stenehjem says if the claim isn't paid or settled in six months, the state will sue in federal court.
Corps officials have said the protesters weren't evicted due to free speech reasons. The protests against the $3.8 billion pipeline resulted in 761 arrests from August 2016 to February 2017. The pipeline began moving oil a year ago, but four American Indian tribes are still fighting it in court.

QUEEN’S PARK – MPP Will Bouma recognized an upcoming event taking place in his riding of Brantford-Brant in the Ontario Legislature Tuesday — the Six Nations annual Grand River ‘Champion of Champions’ Pow Wow. “The Grand River Pow Wow has a history that started in 1977 when a few people from the Six Nations community began to dance at pow wows throughout Ontario,” Bouma said, outlining the history of the event. “One night in 1979, sitting around the campfire at a pow wow, the discussion turned to, ‘Why don’t we host a pow wow at home?’ The wheels started turning and the work began. The Grand River ‘Champion of Champions’ Pow Wow Committee was formed and it was decided to have the first pow wow in 1980.”

the weekend would be deemed the ‘Champion of Champions’ and receive a trophy, as well as have their name engraved on a large trophy that is displayed by the pow wow committee. A date was picked and it was decided that the pow wow would be held annually on the fourth weekend in July.”

What exactly is a Pow-Wow anyways?
A pow wow is a social gathering of Indigenous People from North America. Typically there are two kinds of pow wow - Traditional and Competition style. The ʻGrand River Champion of Champions Pow- Wowʼ is a competition pow-wow, one of the oldest and largest in Ontario. That means the dancers and drummers competing are skilled athletes and professionals who practice year round. At the ʻGrand River Champion of Champions Pow Wowʼ, dancers and drum groups from across the United States & Canada compete to “place” for a cash prize of either 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th in the style category they choose to compete in. This is done by collecting points throughout the weekend. At the end of the weekend the dancer with the most points is named the “Champion of Champions”. That winner holds the title the entire year and receives a huge trophy.
What do the “costumes” mean?
Indigenous people never refer to their dancing attire as a costume. This is a common slip of the tongue - so don't worry if you accidentally called it that. A costume is something a person wears when they are dressing up as something they are not - for example at Halloweʼen you might see someone wearing a zombie costume. A better term to use is ʻoutfitʼ or ʻregaliaʼ.
Why do different dancers wear different looking outfits?
There are 6 main styles of dance done at Grand River; Traditional Dances - simply called Menʼs or Womenʼs Traditional, Medicine Dances Menʼs Grass and Womenʼs Jingle, and Fancy Dances - Menʼs Fancy Feather and Womenʼs Fancy Shawl. Within those styles the dancers are again divided according to age to make for easier judging; Golden Age, Adult, Teen, Kids, and Tiny Tot categories.
Where do you get the outfits?
A dancerʼs outfit is very personal and usually holds special meaning to them. Dancers at the competitive level invest thousands of dollars and years of work into all the components that make up their regalia. Some dancers make their own regalia from scratch. But there are also highly skilled Indigenous Artists throughout North America who bead, craft and sew all the pieces that make up a personʼs regalia for a living. The compilation of a dancerʼs outfit is often an expression of who they are. Sometimes they will put a symbol on their outfit that represents what nation they come from or wear feathers they earned in honour of a special accomplishment they have achieved. Each personʼs outfit is a piece of wearable art and means something special to the owner.
Can I take pictures of the dancers?
There are certain times during the pow-wow that you canʼt take pictures. Listen to the emcees and they will let you know when it is not okay to take pictures. In general, it is okay to take pictures of the dancers during competitions. However if you are want to take a dancerʼs picture when they are walking about the rest of the pow-wow grounds itʼs always appreciated if you ask for their permission first. Donʼt be nervous, most of the time they will be glad to pose for you.
Where do I sit?
There are bleachers provided for the public. You can also bring your own lawn chair. Keep it on the outside of the area roped off for dancers and judges. There is an accessible seating area close to the drummers tent reserved for elders and persons with disabilites.
Are dogs or pets allowed?
No pets are allowed onto the pow-wow grounds except for working guide dogs for those who are visually impaired.

Iroquois Nationals retain bronze at world lacrosse games JIM WINDLE

TWO ROW TIMES
NETANYA, ISRAEL – The Iroquois Nationals defended their bronze medal ranking at the 2018 FIL Men’s World Championships, hosted this year for the first time in Israel. It was a given that the two powerhouse teams of Canada and the USA would once again be the favourites to win gold and silver, in whatever order. But at the last games in 2014, the I-Nats made lacrosse history by winning their first bronze medal, displacing Australia as the third-best lacrosse nation in the world. There have been many heartwarming stories of members of the Iroquois Nationals, as ambassadors of the game itself, helping some of the lesser teams like Uganda with skills and drill ideas, in an effort to promote “the Creator’s Game.”
Anyone who knows the game of lacrosse will recognize the skills, strength and focus members of the Haudenosaunee Nation in particular possess and are somewhat in awe to meet the likes of the Thompsons, Randy Staats and others and get for autographs from players considered to be among the best in the game. Controversy over Team USA gold medal
A blown offside may have cost Team Canada the gold medal. It was a titanic see-saw battle right down to the final minutes of the game, with Team Canada leading by one as time clicked down and Canada with possession. Inexplicably, the referee blew down the play and awarded Team USA with possession. The Americans scored in the last moments of regulation time for the win. During all the arguments between players,
coaches and managers from both teams, it was alleged that time was added to the clock, which eventually factored in on the final American goal by Tom Schreiber, which Canada says was scored after time had actually expired. Team Canada discovered a discrepancy between the stadium clock, the one the coaches and players were relying upon all game, and the official game clock which seemed to cause the confusion. In the last seconds the Americans missed the net on two chances on their final possession, prior to the game-winning goal. But according to Team Canada and Canadian lacrosse fans, the game clock failed to restart when the ball was brought back into play. “The U.S. took a shot and there was four seconds left and we were like, ‘How are we not already at zero?’” said Canadian head coach Randy Mearns following the heartbreaking loss.

ISRAEL — Buried beneath all the noise about the Iroquois Nationals possibly not playing in the FIA Men’s World Lacrosse Championships in Israel because of an issue with using Haudenosaunee passports to board the plane out of Toronto, and lost in the controversy caused by the referee inexplicably blowing down the play to put the ball in possession of the United States late in the game for a phantom offside – not to mention the botched time remaining situation that cost Canada the gold medal – was another political story. It involved some individuals lobbying Team Iroquois to refuse to attend the games in protest over the perceived treatment of Palestinians in Israel. According to the World Israel News, a pro-Palestinian group known as
Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, or BDS, was trying to disrupt the World Lacrosse Championships by trying to get the Iroquois Nationals to boycott the games. “As indigenous peoples, we have both seen our traditional lands colonized, our people ethnically cleansed and massacred by colonial settlers,” the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) said in a letter to the Iroquois Nationals published last Wednesday. “Like the Iroquois Confederacy and the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island, we struggle daily for self-determination and against ongoing dispossession and colonization,” the letter adds, using an Iroquois term for the North American continent. The letter claims that the Wingate Institute, a sports college where the tournament was held, is a “settlement” built on the Palestinian lands of
Khirbet al-Zababida, even though it is on sovereign Israeli land, within pre1967 lines. Ansley Jemison, executive director of the Iroquois Nationals, told Indian Country Today that he has seen some of the requests to stay away from the championships in Israel, but said he and the team must remain focused. “I think we are going to keep it as much about the game and as much about us understanding what we bring,” he said. “What we are taking to the game is our medicine. And that can be a healing for both sides. We are an Indigenous representative on the world level. We are not choosing a side; it is non-binary,” he said. The I-Nats refused to entertain the invitation to stay home for political reasons, and after much delay, did not only attend the championship but returned with the bronze medal.

Hess impressive in first round TKO
'Razor' cuts down Mexican fighter Diego in three explosive minutes JIM WINDLE
jim@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
BRANTFORD — It was kind of a “do-over” for super welterweight Karl “the Razor” Hess in Collingwood last weekend as he and fellow Black-Eye Boxing Club mate, heavyweight Craig “Wardog” Hudson, came home with impressive wins. For Hess, the disappointment of losing his first professional bout in Mississauga was avenged as he delivered a first round TKO of opponent Christobal Diego, who had a 3-1 record going in. Hess looked much less nervous in his second professional fight and carried himself as the better trained and more confident of the two combatants, even though the fight only lasted three minutes. “I had a lot of confidence going in,” said Hess back at his home club. “I felt calm and ready.” Following the first fight at the Hershey Centre, Hess admitted to having a sinus infection which severely hampered his breathing. He didn’t want that to be seen as an excuse for losing so he did not dwell on it, but it was a factor. “I stayed calm in the first round and I know he was dizzy a couple of times, but I didn’t want to use up much energy to try and knock him out early,” said Hess. “I just kept boxing like I was supposed to. I heard somebody yell there was 10 seconds left in the round so I thought, I better hit him and go for it. I caught him in the corner with a left hook to the ear followed by a right cross to the forehead.” And Hess hits hard, crumpling Diego to the canvas in the corner before the bell rang. As Black-Eye Boxing Club's head coach Jackie Armour explained, “When someone is knocked down before the bell and you’re five seconds into the
He’s down! Karl “the Razor” Hess celebrates after knocking opponent Christobal Diego of Mexico out at the end of the first round, in Collingwood. Diego could not answer the bell for the second round. Hess is now 1-1 as a pro after an impressive first round TKO win. SUBMITTED PHOTO
Heavyweight, Craig “Wardog” Hudson, fighting out of the Black-Eye-Boxing Club in Brantford, also recorded his first win as a professional boxer on the same card over Rodrigo Pacheco, of Mexico. At 6’5’ and weighing in at 226 lbs, Hudson’s first professional win is especially impressive considering he is 44-years-of age and has dropped 40 lbs off his huge frame since turning pro. SUBMITTED PHOTO
count, he cannot be saved by the bell. The count continues and he still has to get up in 10 seconds and say is ready to fight.” Hess was in his corner being tended to by his cornermen when the referee came over and declared the fight over because Di-
ego could not answer the bell for round two. Diego’s corner said he had hurt his arm when he went down awkwardly after Hess knocked him to the canvas at the end of the round. This is the real Razor Hess. He increased his
running regimen after his first fight and his cardio was much better, even though he didn’t really need it in this short bout. “I think if he had have been able to continue, the way it was going Razor would have put him away in the second,” said
Armour. “He runs 18 kilometres a week,” the coach continued. “I think he has always had that talent as a runner. Hell, he’s related to Tom Longboat and he can go forever and can do 5K in 18 minutes. Those are
pretty good numbers.” Hess had a lot of positive things to say about his professional stablemate, the heavyweight Hudson, who also won his bout in Collingwood. “He kept his composure and just outboxed the other guy,” said Hess about Hudson’s performance. “Wardog” earned a unanimous decision for his fist professional win, improving his record to 1-3. “It was a big night for us,” said Armour. “This is the best I have seen Karl and ‘Wardog’ went in 0-3, but he faced some very big upcoming names in Canadian boxing with much more ring experience in the first three fights.” Hudson's opponent in Collingwood was Rodrigo Pacheco, whose record now falls to 4-3-2. Armour instructed Hudson to take it easy and not spend too much too soon, thinking his opponent might be holding something back for the later rounds. As it turned out, Armour was right and Hudson was facing a more aggressive opponent in the last round. But Armour’s team has been working with Hudson’s defence recently and he called upon those skills to weather the storm while still winning the round and ultimately the thumbs-up from all three ring judges. Hudson is a bit of an enigma, having turned pro at the tender age of 43. He is now 44 but it is the best shape this 44-year-old has ever been in his life. Six-foot-five Hudson has come down from 265 pounds and is now a trim and hard 226 lbs. Part of his success against the scales included a lifestyle change; “Wardog” is now a vegan. “There was no losing,” said Hudson about the fight. “We trained hard for it and me and Jackie had a plan going in and we pulled it off.”

OHSWEKEN — The Owen Sound North Stars and the Six Nations Rivermen fought to a regulation time tie at 9-9 Saturday night at the Gaylord Powless Arena, sending the game to overtime, during which the Stars scored two for the Game 1 win. It also set the tone for what could be a very intense series. At around the 17-minute mark of the third period, the lid blew off the slow-cooker when Rayce Vyse was checked into the North Stars players bench. He was jumped by other Stars until his Rivermen teammates found out what was going on and a donnybrook ensued involving Tyler Gibbons and Riley Montour as the two main combatents, and a bench minor to boot. The Stars scored a power-play goal and two short

some ground at 18:02, unassisted. Greg Longboat stuck early in the second period
from Todd Squire to get close at 3-2, but two quick Owen Sound goals threw the momentum back
towards the North Stars. Wayne VanEvery and Wenster Green closed out the second period with

Owen Sound leading 5-4. Joe Maracle Jr. converted a Riley Miller pass to draw even at 1:20 of the third period, and Murray Porter produced a shortlived 6-5 Six Nations lead as Owen Sound returned fire with the next three goals of the game and the 8-6 Stars lead. Roger Vyse made it 8-7 Stars, but Zach Thompson restored the Owen Sound two-goal lead. With the clock quickly counting off the the last three minutes of the game, Dylan Llord brought the Rivermen and the North Stars back into a one goal game. Then, with 19:19 showing on the clock, VanEvery sent the game into OT. In the extra frame, the North Stars were handed a gift as Roger Vyse was handed a questionable five-minute spearing penalty. Both of the Stars’ OT goals came on the ensuing power play.
Junior C best-of-five series ends in dramatic showdown against Brantford JIM WINDLE

BRANTFORD — What a finale to the Junior C divisional semi-final Thursday night at the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre in Brantford. The best-of-five "Battle of the Warriors" came down to a Game 5 showdown, with the winner going on to face the Wilmot Wild in the divisional finals and the losers cleaning out their dressing room. It took Jaxon Martin’s goal to end the suspense with 1:21 left in overtime, sending Six Nations fans into wild celebration after a 13-12 win to end one of the closest series in recent history. Brantford fans thought they might be about to witness the collapse of their Six Nations guests after Brantford opened up a 3-0 first-period lead. Riley Jamieson put Six Nations on the map to close the first period 3-1. The two teams wrestled the lead back and forth throughout the next 40

minutes, playing to a 1212 tie after Kaleb Wells sent the game into extra time on a power play with his fourth of the night for Brantford. There was close checking and end-to-end action throughout most of the overtime period,
until Martin muscled his way in close, elbowing defenders out of the way to take a feed and end the game for Six Nations – and the season for Brantford’s Warriors. The series began with a 10-9 Brantford win, which Six Nations avenged 10-6
in Game 2. Brantford held the hammer after defeating Six Nations in a close 10-9 Game 3 contest, making it necessary for the Six Nations brand of Warriors to win the next two games. On Wednesday, apply-
ing strong and consistent pressure is what paid off for Six Nations. Tehas Powless scored first at 1:42 from Riley Hess. Matt Miller converted a Tyrese Staats pass into the 2-0 lead, but Max Lewis cut that to 2-1 at 18:33.
Blake Dunford and Cole Robillard each got power-play goals to start the second period, but the second half of the frame was clearly Six Nations controlled, with Sam Gowland, Powless and Darris Anderson scoring to put Six Nations up 5-3. In the third it would be Miller, Leon Henhawk and Jaxon Martin adding goals for Six Nations, with Riley Hess putting the cherry on top of a well played 9-5 game. The Wilmot Wild welcomed the worn-down Warriors at the Wilmott Arena on Sunday afternoon, July 22nd at 3 pm. Wilmot had been lying in wait for the Warriors after a hard-fought five game series and were well rested. The Warriors were not, dropping an 11-3 Game 1 decision in the divisional finals. Six Nations' tank was dry after the battle of the Warriors series. Jackson Miller went the distance in goal for Six Nations, facing 61 shots, while goals came from Jake Smith, Logan Anderson and Todd Powless.

But none of that mattered as the Six Nations Rebels gave the Mohawks an 11-6 slap in the face at the ILA Friday night in Game 1 of the best-of-five Western Finals. Gates Abrams scored the first goal of the series from Garret Vyse-Squire and Khan General at 2:15. Elora quickly shot back less than a minute later to draw even. Tanner Baldwin and Chayton King put the Rebels up by two, but Cole Spear scored late in the period for Elora to end the first frame 3-2. The teams evenly traded six goals in the second period, four of them power-play goals, to make it a 6-5 game in the Rebels' favour with one period left. But then, like the coyote after the roadrunner disappears on the horizon, the Mohawks were left slack-jawed as the Rebels pulled away in the third period. Wes Whitlow score a power-play goal
at 3:13, Kahn General was next at 10:52, then came Gates Abrams at 14:22 and Tanner Baldwin’s shorthander at 16:15 made it a 10-5 rout. Spear, who had a great outing in a losing effort with four goals and two assists, broke the Rebels' scoring string at 17:35, but Chayton King closed the game at 19:46. Keegan Thomas was at times sensational in the Rebels net. The Mohawks would have to regroup and take the Rebels a little more seriously than they did in Game 1. The Rebels appear to be focused on the team in front of them in this year's playoffs and have that extra gear in the transmission that Elora does not have when it comes to bench depth. But as stated earlier, the Mohawks are a good team and are capable of surprising the Rebels if they let up now. Like all good teams, the Mohawks regrouped and looked like a different club back home at the Elora Community Centre on Sunday. The Rebels opened the scoring with Mason Hill finding twine at 1:42 from Riley Miller and Wes Whitlow. But Ryan Mueller cashed in on an Elora power play with Gavin Skye serving time for high sticking. He then gave the Mohawks the lead seconds later at even strength.
More penalty issues ensued, as Riley Miller took an unsportsmanlike conduct minor which opened the door to the Elora power play, which struck again at 10:25. Tanner Baldwin showed his worth as a penalty killer, scoring back-to-back shorthanders to close the first period tied at 3-3. Neither team would let the other get too comfortable with a lead as they played to a 6-6 tie after two periods. Scoring for the Rebels were Abrams, with two, and Miller. Suddenly, both teams tightened upon their own zones while Daniel Hill and Landon Kells got very stingy until 19:33 when Elora’ s Mason Noble ended the suspense with the unassisted game winner to evening the best-of-five Western Final series at a game apiece. This Friday, July 27th, the Rebels and Mohawks meet again at the ILA for an 8 p.m. start. The series moves to Elora for Game 4 at the Earl Armstrong Arena and a 7 p.m. start. If a Game 5 is necessary, it will be played at the ILA Monday, July 30. The winner of this series will play the winners of the Eastern Conference’s Colby Hancock Memorial Trophy at the best in the east. That series sits at a game each as well between the Clarington Green Gaels and Akwesasne Indians.
SIX NATIONS — When you are up against as much experience and talent as the Six Nations Major Series Pro-Fit Chiefs possess, it is never a good idea to let up on them, even with a substantial lead. That was the lesson learned last Tuesday night, when the visiting Brampton Excelsiors let a 5-3 lead devolve into a 10-9 Six Nations win. Brampton opened a three-goal gash in the Chiefs’ canoe before Frank Brown hit back, unassisted, at 7:14. Cody Ward scored Brampton’s fourth goal which Cody Jamieson quickly erased, assisted by Craig Point and Quinn Powless. Mike Burke and Randy Staats, fresh home from his bronze medal performance at the World Lacrosse Games in Israel this past week, traded late-period goals to end the first period with the
Excelsiors up 5-3. The Chiefs were behind 6-3 after Bennett Drake scored at 2:29 of the second period. That seemed to awaken the sleeping giant, as the Chiefs’ Jordan Durston, Kyle Jackson and Staats accounted for the next three goals to even the score at 6-6. Jordan Dance returned the lead to Brampton, 7-6, which is how the second period ended. Ward and Burke built on the Brampton lead and by the 9:05 mark of the third, Brampton held a 9-6 lead. But a simple holding penalty to Excelsiors’ Jordan Houtby was the catalyst for a four-goal Six Nations surge to take a 10-9 win out of the hands of the Excelsiors. Staats recorded his third of the game, Durstan scored his second and third goals at 11:01 and 13:13 to even the score and at 14:46, Jamieson notched the winner from Dave Brock. The Six Nations ProFit Chiefs are now in 4th place at 6-3-1, but having several games in hand over the rest of the field and a solid season-ending
push could make a big difference in the standings. Currently, Peterborough leads with 23 points in 14 games played. Oakville is next at 8-3-1 for 17 points in 12 games. Brooklin is in third with 15 points in 15 games while the Pro-Fit Chiefs have six wins, five losses and a tie for 13 points in 12 games. Brampton and Cobourg bring up the rear with 10 and 4 points respectively. The Chiefs were at home against the Lakers Tuesday night in a game that missed our deadline. Thursday night the Lakers return the hospitality. Then, on Monday, July 30, the Oakville Rock invade the ILA in an 8 p.m. start, while on Tuesday the Chiefs are in Oakville to complete the regular season. Should the Chiefs take all six remaining points, they could find themselves in second place going into the post-season. Shane Smith (22 goals, 32 assists), and Cody Jamieson (15 goals, 27 assists) lead the Chiefs' offence.

In Memory of my brother Jason Curley
In loving memory of my brother Jason Curley who passed away July 23, 2000, my dear friend Heather Finlasin, who passed July 11, 2004 and my brotherin-law, Jason Clause, who passed away July 23, 2004.
I would like to thank everyone for helping during the recent loss of my brother Wilburn Sky… to the family, Grandson Russell for taking care of house during the 10days, Rhonda, Diana & Trav, Charlie, Randi & Travis, Jazz, Eileen & Russell for preparing the meals, Trav#1 for loaning tent and tables… To the nephews: Charlie, Craig, Trav#2, Russell, Jess, Atty for fulfilling Wills' wishes to carry him to his resting place and a big Nya:weh to Rosa, Syd for organizing the meal after the funeral. Also to the speakers and wake singers, for making everything go the way Will wanted, and to Public Works septic. Bill Lofthouse for his caring way.
On July 23, 2000, Our Creator took your life on this day. I will never understand why death has to happen. Why does The Creator make one hurt this way? With a big deep breath and all the hopes in the world, I did not want the unidentified body to be you, Walking through the doors, a hand was the first thing I saw, From there, I didn't need a face to view. In a daze, silent tears fell, and I hugged you really tight, I did not want us to be physically forever apart. Deep down inside I felt so empty and lost, As if someone had just tore out a piece of my heart. To see you lying there so lifeless, Slowly kicking in, was the hurting reality, You were gone and soon I'd never see you again. My big brother was really taken from me. To leave you that night was really hard, A lot tougher than anyone will ever know. My true emotions, I had to, and will forever hide, Like you, I will put on a show. The day had come, and we lay you to rest, I whispered see ya, for I will never say good-bye, With every memory I hold, I will create a new life with you, In mind, heart, and spirit, you will always be by my side. I hurt so much; I desperately want you back, To be somewhere. anywhere in this lifetime with me, I long for those unexpected visits and phone calls. How my tears fall, knowing they will never again be. I can't explain the loss I feel. All I know is my heart aches with a throbbing pain, I will always pray that when it is my time to go, I'll get the chance to live a life with you again. May your journey be a peaceful, happy and loving one, For you deserve a lot more than you felt you didn't have here, I 'm glad to say you don't have to feel anymore pain inside, And you are free to do "The Dance" with no more crying tears.
I am stuck, lost for words as I sit here and try to write something for ya's. It's been hard as my heart aches and tears flow as I think of each of you. I wish so much you all were back here in this lifetime. I want to physically see and hug you all. I want to hear your voices, laughs and jokes. I want to have a conversation, all of us. I want us to go bowling or play endless games of horse shoes, I want us to play baseball again, watch a hockey game or get together for a fun time, supper or BBQ. I want us to have coffee, go for breakfast or even go have a cold one or two. I want us to sit around to play cards, watch more movies or just chill and shoot the breeze. I want us to... etc, etc. With all the wants, memories and pictures I have of us it seems a lot of times, that's just not enough. Tears always build up and start falling as my heart feels so hurt, empty and lost. As anger sets in, so does the slow hurt feeling, the reality that each of you have been taken away.
Nya:weh..Chuck
