OPINION "Nation" to "Nation" EDITORIAL BY JONATHAN GARLOW
The Haudenosaunee have never had a government, anyone who tells you so does not understand what the word “govern” means and how our society truly operated before colonization began. We had something better than a government. There isn’t a proper English word for it but we were a giant web of relationship, family and connectivity. No one ruled over another because we did not subscribe to systems of hierarchy. It’s both funny and sad that our visitors still imagine us as barbaric savages because the truth actually contradicts most North American history books – our futuristic society was pretty much Utopian. Don’t believe the lies of a blood thirsty continent of cannibalism, war and death – that’s all revisionist propaghanda devised by our colonial haters. They’ve controlled the narrative for quite a long time. We have no Kings and we do not bend the knee. It’s possible that we enjoyed thousands of years of peaceful self-rule, by living according to our wampum and oral traditions. That got all busted up when Canada installed its first official Chief in 1924, by way of a Hilton M. Hill. Before that we had thousands of years of Royanni/ Hoyane representation. These ancient words which we now call “chief” could be better translated as “Good men.” Ackland Davey taught that these good men were chosen by clan moth-
ers as speakers for each of the 49 clan families, not as Kings or as Chiefs. Today many of those titles sit vacant because the families themselves have forgotten who they are. We must remind each other that our communal loss of identity is not our fault - we are victims of 150 years of abuse. There is a national news photo showing a "First Nations" Chief-ruler wearing a Sioux War Bonnet as he signs paperwork sitting next to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The PM tweeted “At the AFN-Crown meeting in Ottawa this morning – building a true nation-to-nation relationship between Canada and First Nations.” I think the Chief-ruler was Perry Bellegarde or someone – it doesn’t matter, he is another token Indian being manipulated under duress to perform. The glaring error that is being noticed by the internet is this: The Assembly of First Nations isn't a nation its an advocacy group. How can they even enter into nation-to-nation talks? By the way, Canada may not be a real nation either but this is probably not an appropriate time to talk about that. Imagine if Taco Bell signed nation-to-nation agreements with the Lions Club and it affected everyone. True nation-to-nation relationships in this land have always been made official with wampum anyway. Because the Mohawks were the eastern most nation of the Confederacy our
treaties were made in the 17th century with pre-colony settlers. These treaties weren’t for us back then, we gave them the guest pass so they wouldn’t be completely annihilated like the Vikings were. Later, much later, our western cousin nations signed the “numbered treaties” with the Dominion much later in the 1800s. According to their website the AFN is a national advocacy organization representing First Nations citizens in Canada. We are in the big mess we are in today because there have always been token “Chief-rulers” that have been installed by Canada and called upon by Canada to sign documents. Certain indigenous loyalists would rather die than identify as a First Nation citizen of Canada. The next thing to remember is that AFN isn’t your bro! In early 2013, documents revealed that the AFN had been operating in conjunction with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) to provide information and conduct surveillance on certain indigenous peoples the government doesn’t like. People you know are probably on that “Mohawk terrorist” list. The Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Seneca, Oneida and Tuscarora are not First Nations of Canada we are much older than that and there’s no need for new relationships when we already have one that is broken down and in dire need of repair.
The Peacemaker as an astronomer: Celebrating the next total eclipse By Doug George-Kanenttio Consider this; the Peacemaker had to have had formal training as an astronomer and mathematician. How else could he have managed to time the birth of the Confederacy with the total eclipse of the sun? And that was, perhaps, at 2:29 p.m. on August 22 in 1142 ACE. How could he have co-ordinated, planned and effected so many variables to come together at one time, at one place at that exact instance? Is there any other example of any enlightened teacher, anywhere on the planet, who managed to do something similar? Not just mark an eclipse but to have one take place while the Iroquois were gathered at Onondaga, in assembly, ready to endorse the lighting of the council fire and the raising of the Great Tree. I know of nothing like it in human history. So we have to consider that the Confederacy was established during a solar eclipse of which there are two possibilities given the place (central New York) and time (harvest corn ripening). The dates are both in August,
both with a magnitude eclipse of nine which means the sun's light was almost totally blocked by the moon. That would be either August 18, 909 ACE at 11:33 a.m. or August 22, 1142 at 2:29 p.m. Which seems most logical? We have to consider that the Confederacy was said to be long in place when the Europeans arrived in our territory in 1534 to 1535. There is also speculation as to how many Tadodahos held that title before contact which, if correct, may point to the earlier time. The next partial eclipse is Monday, August 21 from 2:20-5:04 p.m. with a magnitude of 8.5. The total eclipse will be over Cahokia in East St. Louis where our ancestors once lived and the location of the largest Native urban center until its dissolution in the 14th century. Is there a connection between the formation of the Confederacy, its rise to power, and the abandonment of this city of 20,000 people? On Monday, April 8, 2024 a total solar eclipse will take place over much of Iroquois territory at 2:15 p.m. I would think both this year and seven years from now should be
Volume 4, Issue 45
marked by gathers across our land to mark the Confederacy and our respective commitments to keep it in motion. I apologize for citing, in previous columns, August 31, 1142 as the founding date since I was relying on incorrect information and should have double checked the data. There are other opinions about the date of the Confederacy's formation. Professor William Starna of the State University at Oneonta uses records and accounts from the Dutch and English colonists to suggest it was created in response to the arrival of the Europeans and the subsequent need to regulate trade and commerce. Others have cited 1450 as a date or even sometime after Jacques Cartier arrived in Hochela (Montreal) in 1535. But when the oral teachings are taken into consideration it would point to a more distant time. There is no question the Confederacy was, like all human creations, a thing which waxed and waned as circumstances changed. Nations are formed, at times become prosperous CONTINUED ON PAGE 30

Education pathway to lift our nations and restore strengths By Cynthia Wesley-Esquimaux How will embracing indigenous knowledge enhance general education? This is the question of the decade with the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the celebration of Canada 150, and the advancement of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. It’s been a conversation long in coming, more than 600 years of impact, disease, removal, land grabs, child apprehensions, and uber colonization finally culminating in a discussion inclusive of nation-to-nation dialogue and change. Hopefully, this means the change indigenous people are looking for, which doesn’t only mean using the term indigenous, citing the 94 calls to action or making a new best friend. What it does mean is extending and sustaining a deep recognition of why the restoration of jurisdiction and authority, providing the kind of funding any legitimate
government can expect, and building the kind of relationships that balance the needs of First Peoples with a proper allocation of resources — both fiscal and human — are necessary. Education has been identified as the pathway that brought us to our knees as indigenous peoples, and it will now be the pathway that will ultimately lift our nations and restore their strengths. The history of Canada will never ring true without the inclusion of indigenous voices, stories, song, dance, experiences and art. We can never claim an identity as a country without recognizing the very foundation upon which our uniqueness was forged. Indigenous knowledge reconnects humanity to the earth, to the waters, and to the very air we breathe. It expresses our basic needs for sustenance, the building of a diversity of relationships, and encourages our expression of spirit. We all bring something to this experience of being human, and we all need to embrace the
value of reciprocity and respect. Our education must be inclusive of the world in which we live from the ground up, and this means having regard for the natural environment. Our elders have long said, “you cannot eat money,” and we would be wise to listen and include the value of living softly on the earth along with the development of technology and economics. What will we teach our children? What are the first lessons they learn? To share, be kind, have respect for each other and clean up after themselves. All elements of indigenous knowledge are essential for the future of this beautiful country we now know as Canada. Let’s ensure the next 150 years will be about inclusion, celebration of our diversity of cultures and languages, and recognition (that) we all have incredible gifts to offer each other.

The Path Home Part 1:
Warriors (Tekarontakeh) Mohawk Nation News Series
What is a warrior? One does not become a warrior because he is a young person. Creation mandated this as a duty and responsibility. It is the most natural part of nature. It is based on the instinct to survive. All species, humans, insects, animals, birds and every species of life has this instinct. Without it, there would be no life. Spirituality is the natural spirit to live. It is not man-made. Where is this reinforced in our culture? A warrior has to know our laws and ways. When he is asked, “Who are you?” Can he answer in his language? A warrior is brought to the people during one of the four appropriate traditional festivals. He receives his name through the naming ceremony. When his name is announced to the people, then he becomes part of the community. This is the political side of it. This is the first step in becoming a warrior. Then he remembers how he was raised by his mother after his birth. How his relatives took care of him until his voice changed. Until that time he always had his grandmothers and grandfathers around him. They
brought the philosophy and principles of our culture to him. The women fed him, clothed him and made him comfortable, strong and healthy. As his voice began to change, it was a sign to the old ones that it was time to start the next phase of his education. His uncles on his mother’s side took him. He went through a fast to seek his protection and medicine. When he received it, then his medicine bag was made for him. After he receives it, this is his protection. His umbilical cord, which has been saved since his birth, is returned to him by his grandmother and placed in his medicine bag. Through his woman relatives, the soil of the earth is put into his medicine bag by his mother or grandmother. He always wears it to remind him of who he is and what is his protection. Now he is ready to learn his duties, responsibilities and obligations to his people. He begins his physical training. He trains before sunrise every morning. His uncles awaken him to start running in the forest as far and as hard as he can. He stops at high noon. His stamina increases every day. Finally he is able to run from sunrise until
high noon without stopping. During that time he sees something different within nature around him. He sees the night creatures as they go to get their rest. He sees the flowers open up, the birds start to sing and the day insects come out. Every day he sees and learns something new. All the while he is building his body and developing his mind. Once he does this, he is taken into other advanced areas of learning. He is taught how to defend himself, to wrestle and other endurance building sports and activities. For example, our people had a highly developed knowledge of the science of physical development. Our ancestors knew how to pass down this knowledge. The early Europeans were amazed at the highly advanced physical and mental development of our people. The grandfathers and uncles teach him more about his responsibilities under the Kaianereh’ko:wa/Great Law of Peace. Prior to this it was explained to him by his women relatives in a symbolic way. The men then help him put the laws, culture and traditions into actual practice. As he gets CONTINUED ON PAGE 23

Inaugural convocation Maria’s blaze

OHSWEKEN – June 7th marked a milestone in the history of Six Nations Polytechnic (SNP), with the first ever convocation of students from the Bachelor of Arts in Ogwehoweh Languages program. This is also the first time an Indigenous institution has accredited a standalone degree. Those in attendance included the graduating students, their friends and family, SNP Staff, and Six Nations community members. The group heard inspirational speeches from Indigenous Knowledge Guardian Ima Johnson and other guests, who spoke to the students directly in Mohawk and Cayuga; the languages in which the degrees are offered. “According to UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, each of the six languages spoken in our community is on the list of languages that are critically endangered,” said Rebecca Jamieson, President and CEO of Six Nations Polytechnic. “Therefore, it’s of the utmost importance that we at Six Nations Polytechnic, and in the Six Nations community, do
This historic milestone marks the first time a standalone degree is being granted by an Indigenous institution. SUBMITTED PHOTO everything in our power to prevent our languages from being lost. The graduates today have shown tremendous dedication to revitalize our language, and because of their commitment our community will have more language teachers, more children speaking the language, and I could not be more proud of them.” When SNP received ministerial consent to grant the degree from the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development (formerly Ministry of Training, Colleges, and Universities) in December 2015, students who had previously completed their Ogwehoweh
Language Diploma were among the first to be offered the opportunity to complete one more year of study to obtain the Bachelor of Arts Degree in the language. Classes for the degree began in January 2016 for those students who had already obtained their diploma with SNP, and those are the students who graduated today. “I’m very proud of all the students who are graduating today. As an instructor and coordinator for the language program, I have seen firsthand how much the students have grown and how far they’ve come over the last few years.
It is now their turn to carry on with the work that we’ve been doing at Six Nations Polytechnic to continue speaking the language and using it in their everyday lives,” said Tom Deer. Graduates of the Bachelor of Arts in Ogwehoweh Languages - Cayuga Stream: Bruce Longboat, Christine Jacobs, Coleen Powless, Corene Cheeseman, Karen General, Lainie Longboat, Lindsey Brooke Johnson. Graduates of the Bachelor of Arts in Ogwehoweh Languages – Mohawk Stream: Cynthia McQueen, Deneen Hill, Holly Styres, Sean Thompson.
BRANTFORD — Investigators from the Ontario Fire Marshall’s office are looking into what caused a massive fire in Brantford that destroyed an iconic pizza spot. The Colborne Street home of Marias Pizza and Smak Dab Pottery went up in flames early Sunday morning. Damages are estimated at close to $2 million. So far investigators are saying the fire started in the north corner of the two buildings. Seven of the building’s residents were taken to hospital suffering smoke inhalation. All of them have been released home.
New homes for Southwestern First Nation
MUNSEE — Six young families from an Ontario reserve are about to get a new home. The Munsee Delaware Nation is one of 55 First Nations in Ontario to benefit from a 2016 federal housing investment. An $800,000 boost from Ottawa was used to build a six unit housing complex on the territory. Community Chief Roger Thomas says the new homes were completed in May of 2017 and will contribute to a sense of belonging for families in the community.

Annual Celebration of Student Success at SNP By Chezney Martin
“It's kinda scary — your first year of university — but when you get to be at home it's nice,” Samantha Williams, SNP-UP Student and 2017 Recipient of the Marge & Reg Henry Cayuga Language Award.
SIX NATIONS – As indigenous student success has been connected to familial and communal support, students graduating and receiving recognition for outstanding achievements gathered within the banquet hall of the Six Nations Polytechnic (SNP) for the Annual Student Celebration for Study Completion. Students were surrounded by family and friends as they were given certificates of completion for either the SNP University Consortium Year 1, Early Childhood Education or Indigenous Visual Arts. President and CEO of SNP Rebecca Jamieson noted that the day is definitely one for celebration.

PHOTO BY CHEZNEY MARTIN “This is one of the favourite events of the year, because you see the students are celebrating their success and more importantly, in addition to the students, the families are here,” said Jamieson. “That's what makes it so important because their younger children or
their younger brothers and sisters see the potential and the possibility to succeed and that's why it's such a great day.” As SNP hosts the only indigenous language degree of its kind, Rebecca Jamieson iterated her pride in the program and the students’ success. “[The language degree]
is a really important milestone for this community,” said Jamieson. “That degree belongs to the community and it's not granted by any other institution.” “Because it's our knowledge and our language — it's critical that that happened that way. To be able to offer that
degree and see our first graduates is historic, it's significant culturally it restores community confidence and pride. It's just a really significant thing.” The Language Award Recipients for 2017 were: Vanessa P. Smith for the Harvey Longboat Memorial Scholarship, Samantha J. Williams for the Marge & Reg Henry Cayuga Language Award. While the Highest Average Recipients were: Ruseel T. Davis, Larry W. Longboat, Laurie L. Powless, Katsitionha-
wi Hill-McNaughton, Elizabeth L. Daniel, and Katelyn R. Johnson. The Aboriginal Institutes Consortium Student Scholarship Award was awarded to Thomas H. Anderson, and the Aboriginal Institutes Consortium Instructor Award was awarded to Carolyn General. As recipient of the Marge & Reg Henry Cayuga Language Award, Williams said that going to school and earning university credits close to home was “really nice”.

“I really liked coming here for my first year,” said Williams. “It's close to home and I didn't have to go far away, right away.” She explained that the programming also shined light upon indigenous issues and related the information in an indigenous format. “All of the programs that we did here, [SNP] related all of the information back to indigenous issues,” she said.
“In sociology we would always look at social issues in different reserves, then we'd relate it back to our own community sometimes.” In regards to her award, Williams said that she enjoyed the Cayuga language program. “I really liked the Cayuga class here,” she said, explaining that she learned the language in elementary, but not during her high school years.
“When I took the language program here, it really refreshed my memory,” she said. “Our language is really important, and it's kinda hard when you go to school off reserve because they don't ever offer it.” The banquet was closed with a traditional Thanksgiving Address by Taylor Gibson.

HALDIMAND OPP BLOTTER
Driver injured in single vehicle collision By TRT staff
HALDIMAND COUNTY – The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Haldimand County Detachment is investigating after a driver was injured in a single vehicle collision that occurred at a Concession 8 Walpole, Hagersville, Haldimand County, Ontario address. On Tuesday June 6, 2017 at 9:24 a.m., OPP, Haldimand County Fire Services and Haldimand County paramedics responded to Concession 8 Walpole for a single vehicle collision where it was reported that a flatbed truck collided into the ditch. It was further reported that the male
driver of the truck was trapped inside. When officers arrived, they noticed a passerby had assisted the male driver exit the truck. Paramedics transported the male driver to a local area hospital where it was determined his injuries were non-life threatening. OPP investigation, thus far, has determined that the flatbed truck was travelling east bound on Concession 8 Walpole when the driver, for unknown reasons, drove onto the shoulder, off the roadway causing the flatbed truck to go airborne before colliding with the ditch. OPP continue to investigate.

Warriors continued from page 7 older, he starts learning the adult version and its realities. Our people knew that our young people had to learn in stages. Symbolism is deciphered and applied to his every day life, in governance, responsibilities and his continuing development. This is the path to becoming a warrior. Each man is different. Each is an individual. Each has to learn how to work with others. The formula for working together has always been in the Kaianereh’ko:wa. When a young man proclaims he is a warrior, he must have this knowledge. He can’t go by assumptions. He has to learn and accept the truth and the reality of his responsibility. This is the most difficult part for people – to accept and apply the truth. The Kaianereh’ko:wa is based on truth and nature. It is skenna, kariwiio and kastatsensera (peace, righteousness and power). The thousands of years of knowledge, experience and answers are all there in the Kaianereh’ko:wa. It has traveled the proven path and retraces the steps of our ancestors. It doesn’t matter the time in history. Truths never change. One has to begin by respecting ourselves and knowing what respect is. All can learn to treat everyone with respect. But true respect is given to those who earn it. Respect can be shown to everyone no matter what opinion they hold. It is the respectable thing to do. Today we have people
who criticize the warriors. For most it is simply because they weren’t raised this way. For some critics it’s a political agenda. Circumstances have made it so our young and older men were not raised in the traditional way. It doesn’t mean they can’t learn these teachings. We shouldn’t criticize the warriors of today because they did not grow up with this knowledge. Even though some of the elders failed to teach them, they are doing the best they can to carry out their duties and responsibilities. They are putting their lives and safety on the line on behalf of our people. This criticism could cause great disillusionment. In many of our struggles the warriors have lost their families, jobs, careers, and sometimes even their life. Remember Dudley George and all those AIM warriors who were killed, many through the agencies of the United States government. They were without exception doing what they could for the future survival of our people. They fought for our lands and our natural human rights. They did everything they could to protect us. We have to admire and respect these men and women, even though the colonist have labeled them as thugs, goons and terrorists. Our warriors have worked very hard to maintain peace. They have never gone out to kill or hurt anybody. They never caused the harm they’ve been labeled with. We are being made ashamed of those of our young men who would ac-
tually stand and defend our nation, our government and our people. We are told to be look away from all those sacred values that were passed down to us by our ancestors. We should not turn our backs on those who stand for those values that were given to us thousands of years ago. Today we are having difficulty dealing with those who have turned their backs on us. These people are like a disease, such as one that is causing so much wrong and harm to our people. They are like the diabetes that has affected 80 per cent of the Onkwehonwe people. We know the cause of diabetes. Very few change their eating habits which would start the process to recovery. It’s the same with our spies and traitors. We know how they are killing and hurting our nations. Just like diabetes, we know the cure. Yet we are not taking the time to rid ourselves of these diseases. Something is holding us back. It is a germ that was implanted in our minds by those who came here from across the ocean. They knew that anybody who had a healthy mind could not be controlled. They needed to weaken our minds. We have to look at what we call the “brain”. It’s called “o-ni-gon-ra” meaning “it takes care of you”, “it watches over you”. The brain is the center of our survival. It controls everything. If our mind is strong, everything about us will become strong. Our ancesCONTINUED ON PAGE 24

Highway 401 Interchange & Highway Improvements from Hespeler Road to Townline Road, City of Cambridge (GWP 3222-15-00) THE STUDY The Ministry of Transportation, Ontario (MTO) has retained Stantec Consulting Ltd. to complete the Detailed Design and Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) study for improvements on Highway 401 from Hespeler Road to Townline Road in the City of Cambridge, Region of Waterloo as shown on the key plan below. Since the issuance of the Notice of Study Commencement in May 2014 (formerly GWP 3060-11-00), the project has been divided into two phases and is tentatively scheduled for consecutive construction, subject to completion of the Detailed Design and Class EA Study, funding, and approvals:
• Phase I (2018) - Replacement of the Franklin Boulevard bridge including some work at the interchange, rehabilitation of retaining walls at the Townline Road bridge, and an expansion of the commuter parking lot at the Townline Road interchange. • Phase II (Starting in 2019 to 2021) - Widening of Highway 401 to ten lanes, including High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes; reconstruction of the Highway 401 interchanges at Franklin Boulevard and Hespeler Road; replacement of the Hespeler Road bridge; and retaining walls as needed. Drainage improvements, illumination, overhead signs and traffic signals will be completed as part of this phase. A section of a new noise wall is proposed along the south side of Highway 401, west of Franklin Boulevard. The study will include the provision for pedestrian/cyclist travel across Highway 401 on Franklin Boulevard and Hespeler Road in accordance with the active transportation goals of the Region of Waterloo and the City of Cambridge. The construction staging/traffic management strategy during the replacement of the Franklin Boulevard Bridge will include a temporary full closure of this interchange with no access across Highway 401 during construction. PROCESS This study is following the approved planning process for Group ‘B’ projects under the MTO Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000). The Preliminary Design of the project was included in the Highway 401 from Hespeler Road easterly to the Wellington County/Halton Region Boundary study (GWP 8-00-00) which concluded with the publication of a Transportation Environmental Study Report (TESR). The TESR received Environmental Assessment (EA) clearance in November 2013. A Public Information Centre (PIC) is planned for the fall 2017 to present the Recommended Plan for improvements for both Phase I and II, as well as the proposed construction staging and traffic management plans for each. The date, time, and location of the PIC will be advertised in local newspapers. A Design and Construction Report (DCR) documenting each phase will be made available for a 30-day public review period with public notice advising of the start of the review period. COMMENTS

BRANTFORD — The city of Brantford said no to marijuana dispensaries Tuesday. City council found consensus on zoning bylaw amendments that prohibit cannabis dispensaries in the city and parts of Brant County. This they say, is an interim solution before legalization of recreational marijuana is put in place by Ottawa. Council says they hope to have a full set of zoning bylaws in place by that time, including keeping the dispensaries away from schools and youth centres.

tors knew that. Our mind should always be used to do what is good for all. Due to this lack of knowledge among our people about our ways, we are encouraged to make decisions based on our emotions. The colonists have sent people among us who tell us, “Listen to our heart”, go on emotion, rather than using our brain. He doesn’t want us to exercise our brain. He wants us to think with our heart which is not an organ that is made to think. It is our mind that is made for thinking. Elders say, “Let us gather our minds together and become one mind”. They never say, “Let us gather our hearts together”. They know that is not the purpose of the heart. We use our mind to help us survive. Thinking is the traditional foundation of being a warrior.

28 major banks warned not to finance Trans Mountain pipeline expansion BURNABY, BC — This week, over 20 Indigenous and environmental organizations delivered an open letter to 28 major banks, calling on them to back away from funding the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project (TMEP). The warning letter urges banks to avoid the reputational and financial risk of supporting this destructive project, which is incompatible with realizing the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement and respecting human rights, especially those detailed in the U.N. Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. "Mark my words, Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project will never see the light of day," said Grand Chief Stewart Phillip, President of the Union of the BC Indian Chiefs. "We do not accept the unscrupulous liability of dirty oil coming through any pipeline system to benefit some Texans or multinational interests at the expense of our inherent responsibilities to our grandchildren's grandchildren." The Trans Mountain Expansion Project would not only triple Trans Mountain's capacity — transporting an additional 590,000 barrels of crude oil each day — it would lock in expanded
production of one of the most carbon-intensive oils, Alberta tar sands oil. The 28 banks are the 14 banks that underwrote the Kinder Morgan Canada IPO (Bank of America, Bank of Montreal, Barclays, Canadian and Imperial Bank of Commerce, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan Chase, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Mizuho Financial Group, National Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Canada, Scotiabank, Société Générale, and Toronto-Dominion Bank); and 14 other banks participating in current and past Kinder Morgan revolving credit facilities (BayernLB, BBVA, BNP Paribas, BPCE/Natixis, Citigroup, Crédit Agricole, DNB ASA, ING, Morgan Stanley, Regions Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, SunTrust, UBS, and Wells Fargo). "We're making it loud and clear that banks need to back off from funding Trans Mountain," says Lindsey Allen, Executive Director of Rainforest Action Network. "Any bank that decides to participate in this project will be implicated in Indigenous rights violations and will knowingly feed fuel to the fire of climate chaos. They won't be able to claim that they didn't have all the relevant information." The existing Trans
Mountain pipeline has sprung 82 recorded spills, including four major spills since Kinder Morgan bought the pipeline in 2005. Future spills, from a massively expanded pipeline, would endanger local sources of drinking water. "As banks consider financing Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain Expansion tar sands pipeline, they should know that the over 120 First Nations and Tribes that have signed the Treaty Alliance Against Tar Sands Expansion will not let this project happen, says Grand Chief Serge Simon of the Mohawk Council of Kanesatake on behalf of the Treaty Alliance Against Tar Sands Expansion. "Indigenous and allied resistance to the pipeline will not be limited to BC either – it will be all over Turtle Island and will also target the banks that chose to ignore our opposition." As with the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), a highly controversial project constructed without the free, prior, and informed consent of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion poses a grave threat to Indigenous rights. First Nations that would be directly impacted by the route and port terminal are fighting the project in the courts and leading

robust protests on the ground. "Until banks honor the right to Free Prior and Informed Consent of indigenous people — including the Dené, Cree, Metis, and Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation — we will continue to call on municipal and foreign governments to divest from these banks," says Jacqueline Fielder of Mazaska Talks. With financing for Kinder Morgan's TMEP being finalized in the coming weeks, the groups are urging the banks to heed the lessons learned from DAPL and decline any additional involvement with Kinder Morgan that would facilitate financing of the TMEP, particularly Kinder Morgan's planned C$5.5 billion credit facility. "Tar sands oil is deadly, destructive, and economically infeasible," said Tara Houska, National Campaigns Director of Honor the Earth. "Banks run on our money — we have a say in how it is invested. Without consent of indigenous nations impacted by these projects, banks are supporting sacrifice zones, while also actively contributing to climate change. Invest in renewables and our future."

Man dies after falling from cliff HAMILTON — Police say a man in his twenties has died after falling about 40 metres from a cliff near Albion Falls in Hamilton. It happened late Saturday afternoon and police say two other people who were with the man had to be rescued by emergency personnel who used ropes
to get then them. Neither person appeared to have suffered any serious injuries. Police closed off the area as they continued their investigation. The name of the deceased hasn't been released, however, police say he was not a Hamilton resident.
THUNDER BAY — The acting police chief of Thunder Bay, Ont., says she doesn't believe it's ``practical or necessary'' for RCMP to investigate the recent deaths of indigenous teens in the city. Three First Nations chiefs called last week for the Mounties to intervene and also for in-
creased oversight of the police services board in Thunder Bay. They said the deaths of Tammy Keeash and Josiah Begg _ whose bodies were pulled from local waterways last month _ continue what they call an ongoing trend of indifference on the part of Thunder Bay police.

East Coast premiere of Spirit Game: Pride of a Nation By TRT staff
SYRACUSE – The East Coast premiere of Spirit Game: Pride of a Nation, specifically for Haudenosaunee citizens, was held in Syracuse, N.Y. on June 3. The red carpet affair took on the air of a family reunion as friends from various nations caught up on news while waiting to have their pictures taken. Many of those in attendance were featured in the film, including Iroquois Nationals players, Haudenosaunee historian Rick Hill, Grammy-award winner Joanne Shenandoah, and many others. For lacrosse fans, the film is not to be missed. It captures key plays

Free concert coming to Six Nations for Canada By TRT Staff Ontario's 150th anniversary has become a means of celebration, with many festivities on the horizon. Of these festivities includes a series of free concerts to take place across the province — Six Nations has become a stop on the list. The date is set for September 7 for Six Nations
to welcome talent, and will coincide with the Six Nations Annual Fall Fair. As communities can add to the talent featured in the concert, the event will host at least three acts of over 50 Ontario artists. Some of the big names include Serena Ryder, Magic!, Kardinal Offishal, the Barenaked Ladies and much more.

It’s a chance to revel in the “impossible” plays made by the Thompson brothers and the other highly skilled Iroquois Nationals players throughout the games. "The film is not just about lacrosse — it is much deeper than that," noted Onondaga lacrosse stick maker Alf Jacques during the Q&A following the film. "It taught everybody a lot of things, even taught us something about ourselves. It's a great documentary." Spirit Game: Pride of a Nation is a documen-
tary that interweaves the compelling story of the rise of the Iroquois Nationals lacrosse team with an opportunity for
the world to better understand Haudenosaunee sovereignty and the lasting impacts of the Doctrine of Discovery. “We hope this documentary not only tells a good story, but can open up much-needed conversations about the structural injustices against indigenous peoples that continue today,” remarked Baxter. Spirit Game: Pride of a Nation is being shown in select independent theaters, including the Palace Theater in Syracuse on June 24 at 7 p.m., and will be available on iTunes and Amazon starting June 20.

Weather great for Keegan Hill Memorial By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – Keegan Hill, local lacrosse star, son, life partner and father died in a motor vehicle crash in 2011. He was 25 years old at the time. It was a huge shock for not only the Six Nations sporting community, for the community at large as well. This past weekend Keegan Hill was memorialized again at the Sixth Annual Classic 49’s Slow Pitch Tournament, named after the jersey number he wore. Parents Greg and Lynn Hill were pleased with everything about the day, from the weather to the competition. Even more so, it was the outward show of love and respect to their son that pleased them the most. “We are very happy (about this tournament),” said Keegan’s dad. “It really means a lot to see his friends come out.” Cousin and lifetime friends Cameron Sault, Cody Jamieson, Craig Point and a few others started the tournament the year Hill died and have been keeping it up since. One stipulation of participating in the annual affair, according to Sault is that the teams and players know exactly why they are playing in the memorial tournament. Although the weekend is always about fun and friends, that does not stop the competitive nature of the tourney.
The Sixth Annual 49's Slow Pitch Tournament winners were everyone that participated and came out to watch, but officially, the Memorial Tournament for lacrosse star Keegan Hill who died in a tragic auto crash in 2011, did have winning teams. First place was won by the Six Nations Sluggers. Finishing second were the Bandits a new team in this year from the Oneida region, and in third was the Carnigans. PHOTO SUBMITTED BY CAM SAULT
Annually, the Classic 49 Slow Pitch Tournament kicks off the Slow Pitch tournament season. “The first couple of years we battled the weather,” says Sault. “This year we can’t complain one bit about the great weather we’re getting. “Keegan was always lacrosse but we used to play ball together and talked about putting a threepitch team together for fun,” explained Sault. “We never got to do that so we’re doing it now in his name.” “Keegan was a great man, a great friend, great father and a great son,” he said fighting back tears.
“All I wanted to do is bring people together to remember him. It’s tough every year because we were close best growing up.” Jamieson, also a very close friend, wanted to play again this year but is still nursing a bad wheel and was unable to, but acted as a base umpire with more than a few joking barbs thrown to players as they ran the bases, just to keep things light. After weeding through all 16 teams, it was the Six Nations Sluggers winning top honours followed by the Oneida Bandits team, a first-year entry, and in third place it was the Carnigans.
Showing the friendly attitude of the participants, when Sault was asked the final score in the championship game between the Bandits and the Sluggers, he said, “a lot to a little, with a wry smile.” Special awards were given for home runs and best left fielder (a position Keegan played when he played ball). Both winners donated their prizes back to the family and to seven-year-old Connor James Hill, Keegan’s son. The prizes included two very high quality ball gloves, ball hats and other baseball goodies. After expenses paid, the proceeds of the week-

end tournament will go to the Keegan Hill Foundation managed by his parents, for the upbringing of Connor, and to give back to the community. “After expenses are paid, the money goes to help Connor with education funds or anything he might need growing up and draw from the trust account when needed,” says Jamieson. “He was such a great guy,” he remembered. “Everybody that knew him loved him. We started this just after he passed away and it is just a way of carrying it on. It’s for a great cause and everybody’s out here having a great time.” Lynn spoke of how the foundation has used the money gathered in her sons’ name in past years to help the community as well.
“Some money goes to organize and keep this tournament going,” says Lynn. “We donate in Keegan’s name to Six Nations minor sports. The Rebels used to do a golf tournament and we would donate towards the winner in his name, but I think most of the proceeds this year will go towards minor hockey and lacrosse.” Along with Jamieson and Sault were other profile athletes including Sid Smith and Craig Point, and many other friends, teammates and family. The family and friends of Keegan Hill want to thank everyone who contributed to great tournament again this year and look forward to next year.
Lacrosse star Cody Jamieson could not play while resting a nagging leg injury, but kept things loose as a smart-mouthed base umpire, throwing barb at everyone who crossed the base. Jamieson was one of Keegan Hills closest friends. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE

Chiefs enjoy early success By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS — The Mann Cup defending ProFit Six Nations Chiefs are off to an encouraging start with two wins so far against Cobourg (14-3) May 30, and Thursday’s 14-11 win in Brampton over the Excelsiors. At the Brampton Memorial Centre, the Excelsiors were first out of the shoot with three early goals from Jordan Dance, Phillip Caputo and Bennett Drake within the first minute and a 38-seconds. After giving their heads a shake at what had just happened, the Chiefs responded. Dwayne VanEvery scored the Chiefs first goal at 3:19 assisted by Craig Point and Pat Corbett. Vaughn Harris made it 3-2 from Jordan Durston and Corbett at 5:06 and three minutes later Durston scored from Brier Jonathan and Shane Simpson. Ryan Benesch kept the train going at 8:35 from VanEvery and Brandon Bomberry. Point scored the Chiefs third goal within a minute from Benesch and VanEvery, and suddenly the Brampton fans went quiet looking at the score clock showing 5-5 after holding a 3-0 lead. Benesch threw a bucket of cold water on any thoughts of a quick Brampton rally when he scored from Brandon Bomberry 46 seconds into the second. Craig Point put a stamp on it a minute later as the Chiefs quickly took a 7-5 lead. It was a high scoring period with Six Nations scoring eight and Brampton six for a two period score showing the Chiefs

The Major Series, Six Nations Pro-Fit Chiefs took four points to open the 2017 season 2-0, last week. Ryan Benesch is off to a great start with five goals and eight assists for 13 points. This years Chiefs will try and keep that string going with games Tuesday night and Friday night, both at the ILA against the Oakville Rock. FILE PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE leading 13-11. The defence tightened up at both ends in the third period when goalie Brandon Miller shut down all Brampton shooters in the final 20 minutes, and Jordan Durston put the game to bed, for the 14-11 final score. Because the Chiefs have chosen Tuesday nights as their home nights again this year, coverage of the Chiefs this season will be tough, since Tuesday evening is our print deadline. However, last Tuesday, May 30, the Chiefs opened the new season with a 14-3 pounding of the visiting Cobourg Kodiaks. Ryan Benesch opened his Major Series season with an eight-point night (2G-6A) while Craig Point
and Vaughn Harris each chipped in with five-point outings, (3G,2A).

the Major Series Lacrosse level of the game. Many teams, and is seems especially at Six Nations must wait for players to complete the NLL season before coming to camp. For that reason, General manager Dwayne Jacobs in the past has referred to the fort half of the season as sort of like training camp when he and the coaches can get a good look at the prospects heading into the meat of the season. The Chiefs were back home Tuesday night at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena (ILA) to open a two game home stand with the Oakville Rock. Friday night June 9, they take on the Rock again at the ILA at 8 p.m.
Rivermen are now 10-0, with a bullet By Jim Windle
OHSWEKEN – The Sr. B Brooklin Merchants were pasted 16-3 by the first place Six Nations Rivermen Saturday night at the Gaylord Powless Arena in Ohsweken. There was very little resistance from the Merchants as the powerful Rivermen easily assembled a 7-1 first period effort with goals by Danton Miller, Kim Squire, Gregg Longboat, Tom Montour, Kyle Isaacs and two by Kedoh Hill. Martin Whittaker put the first notch in the Merchants stick at 6:10 of the period. Issacs made it 8-1 at 6:54 of the second, before Pat Morgan scored for Brooklin seconds later for the Merchants send goal of the game. Oakley Thomas scored from Rodd Squire and Isaacs at 15:16 to end the second period with the Rivermen in charge, 9-2. The Rivermen got hungry again in the third and fed themselves with seven more goals, those scored by Stu Hill, two by Danton Miller, Kedoh Hill, Cory Bomberry, Oakey Thomas and Ashton Jacobs. Brooklin added its
third period goal, scored by Kyle O’Brian, at 1:21 of the frame. Isaacs, a defenseman, scored two and assisted on three while forwards Danton Miller and Kedoh Hill each scored two and assisted on three to pace the Rivermen. Tom Montour scored once and made good four assists while Oakley Thomas scored two and assisted on two for the winners. Stu Hill scored one and assisted on three. Kim Squire, on his journey back the game, scored one and assisted on two, as did veteran Cory Bomberry. It was a cleanly played game with only three penalties all game, one of them a too-many-men call. Heading into this week’s games, transition man Kedoh Hill leads the league with a 6.00 PointsPer-Game-Average. Rivermen goalie Warren Hill holds the Best-GoalsAgainst-Average, at 4.25. Saturday, June 17th, the Rivermen will chase down the Ennismore James Gang at 7 p.m., in their only appearance of the week.

Arrows beat Lakers in the alley too By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – It was a first-versus-worst scenario Sunday at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena as the 9-1 Arrows took apart the last place Peterborough Lakers, who are off to a dismal 1-9 start to the 2017 Major Series lacrosse season. Austin Staats scored six and added an assist, Travis Longboat scored three and assisted on six, Cody Ward scores two and added seven assists, and Cory Highfield scored two and assisted on four, Also putting up points were Jeremy Bomberry (1G,4A), Jake McNabb (1G,3A), Tyson Bomberry (1G,2A), Brad Voigt (1G,2A). Of the six goals scored against Doug Jamieson, in this writer’s estimation, Jamieson probably would have liked another look at them, but leading by that much can sometimes be hard for a goalie to stay centred. Dustin Hill took over half way through the third allowing no goals on seven shots. Brett Lafonte allowed 18 goals on 49 shots at the other end. There were two memorable fights in the second period as Peterborough’s Riley Morgan and Six Nations’ Matt Kim were both tossed at 3:49 for fighting. Four minutes
The Six Nations Arrows crushed the Peterborough Lakers 18-6 at the ILA Sunday night. Jerry Staats no. 77, chases down Peterborough's Tait Catatonia at the ILA as the Arrows handled the Lakers in an easy 18-6 win. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE later Lakers’ Jake Fox and Six Nations Kessler Doolittle were throwing haymakers. Doolittle got two 10-minute misconducts plus a fighting major, while Lakers Fox just took one misconduct and five-for-fighting.
In the last fight on the card, Jake McNabb and Lakers Jordan Trottier started serving up fist sandwiches at 8:59 and they too were tossed shortening each bench considerably. The difference was, the Arrows had
Martin with three goals and an assist. The Warriors led Mimico 4-1 after the first period and 8-4 after 40 minutes before exploding with nine goals in the third period that at times looked like a shooting practise. In all, 15 different Warriors earned points, which is a hallmark of this team, showing a very well balanced team. Warriors goalie, Nick Martin earned the win. It got a little too wild
for the Six Nations Warriors in Wilmott as the Wild handed the Jr. C Warriors only its third loss of the season in a tight 9-8 clash, June 4, The usually fleet footed Warriors were caught flat footed in the afternoon game, as Wilmott outscored Six Nations 3-1 in the first period with Tshashitchele Powless accounting for Six Nations’ only goal. Marshall Powless, Matt Miller, and a second goal of the period by Powless put the Warriors up
the depth of bench to play shorthanded compared too Peterborough which certainly does not. With all that out of the way, the Arrows piled on five more third period goals from the sticks of Austin Staats, Brad Voigt,
Travis Longboat two by Cody Ward. It will be a busy week for the Arrows as they continue on their flight to the Minto Cup, Thursday, June 15th, at the ILA where they will host the Burlington Chiefs at 8
p.m. Saturday, June 17th, they will travel to Whitby before returning to the ILA, Sunday at 7 p.m. for a date with the Brampton Excelsiors.
4-3 but with the see-saw battle, Wilmott was still clinging to a 7-6 lead after two periods. The teams swapped two goals apiece in the third and although Jaxon Martin brought the Warriors to the door, with five-minutes to go, they could not find that tying goal they needed to force an OT period where anything can happen. Marshall Powless scored three and assisted on two for the Warriors in the Six Nations loss.
Coach Jayson Smith pointed to having to deal with some injuries to key players on the right side of the lineup. He also started associate player from Six Nations Minor Lacrosse, Mike Martin-Abel who played well but suffered his first loss in goal and now has a record of four wins and one loss so far this season. Thursday night, June 15th, the Oakville Buzz will be at the Haldimand Centre Arena in Caledonia at 8 p.m.
Jr. C Warriors can’t hold off Wild By Jim Windle
SIX NATIONS – Following a rare 9-8 setback to Wilmott, the Six Nations Warriors rebounded this past Saturday afternoon with a 17-5 win over Mimico, in Mimico. Marshall Powless led the Warriors’ charge with a 10-point game by way of five goals and five assists, while Ryan Johnson contributed a goal and seven assists, Adam Martin with three goals and three assists, and Jaxon

18-1 Six Nations Rebels leaving league behind By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – The league leading Six Nations Rebels employed the help of all 16-players who dressed for the game — including goalie Daniel Hill — to defeat the Guelph Regals 21-3 at the Sleeman Centre in Guelph Sunday night. Eight Six Nations goals in the first period was enough to put the Regals away 8-0 after 20 minutes, but the game had two more periods to go before the Rebels could return home with the two points. Kevin Owen-Hill scored the first three Rebels goals of the game and it got worse for Guelph after that. It was 15-2 after two periods. In numerical order, these are the Rebels point-getters. Oliver Bolsterli (1G), Josh Miller (1A), Justin Martin (1G,1A), Riley Martin (2G,1A), Layne Smithe
(2G,4A), Wes Whitlow (1G,3A), Tanner Baldwin (1G,1A), Kevin Owen-Hill (3G,1A), Kahn General (1G,1A), Chayton King (2G), Gates Abrams (3G,2A), Wake:Rait Bowhunter (4A), Tyler Foxe-MacKenzie (1G,6A), Riley Montour (3G,1A), Dan Hill (1A), ane Bo Peltier (2A). All goals were even strength. Five goals and two assists? Just another day in Laynes world. Layne Smith and the Six Nations defeated the Elora Mohawks 13-7 Friday night at the ILA. But Smith isn’t the only horse in the Rebels’ stable. Chayton King scored two and assisted on four, Gates Abrams scored a hat-trick, Kevin Owen Hill scored once and four assists, and Riley Miller earned four assists. No, this is a full team of young horses and they are fun to watch when they get up to speed. So far this season, the
Rebels have scored 91 goals in the first period, 103 in the second and 99 in the third period. Friday night against Elora, it was a 1-1 game after the first period with Smith scoring first for Six Nations after Dawson Bolger opened the scoring for the Elora Mohawks at 2:34. The Rebels tore the game open in the second outscoring the Mohawks 6-1 for a 7-2 two period score. Briley Miller earned the win facing 40 shots. Coach Miles General was still sitting out a league suspension so Derek General took over the bench duties that night.
The Six Nations Rebels are steamrolling the rest of the league and a lot of that comes from sharpshooter Layne Smith. Smith is built like a truck and when he gets going is very hard to stop on his way to the crease. Smith leads the team in scoring with 101 points with 64 assists and 37 goals in 19 games.

Georgia Swarm capture NLL Champions Cup By Jim Windle w/notes by Scott Zerr
SASKATOON – It all came down to the Saskatchewan Rush and the Georgia Swarm, a team festooned with Six Nations, Haudenosaunee talent when the National Lacrosse League boiled the 2017 season down to two teams in two, possibly three, games. The Georgia Swarm took the first game of the NLL Champion’s Cup with a come-from-behind victory courtesy of a seven-goal run in the second half to best the Saskatchewan Rush with an 18-14 victory. Georgia’s come-frombehind victory was led by Jordan Hall and some stellar defensive work from goaltender Mike Poulin and the equally dangerous Swarm defense. “That’s the acquisition of the year, man,” Poulin said about trading for Hall during the offseason. “He’s been unbelievable for us. This group
Six Nations, Randy Staats, and Johnny Powless return from Saskatchewan as NLL champions after their Georgia Swarm won the title for the first time, on Sunday. Also bringing an enormous talent to the Swarm were the Thompson boys, Lyle, Miles and Jerome. SUBMITTED PHOTO — there’s so many different personalities, and Jordan’s come in and fit right in, not just as a piece, but the glue that brings all the pieces together. I don’t know where we’d be without him. I really don’t. He’s been unbelievable.” That sent the best of three series to Saskatchewan and an arena filled
with Rush fans eagerly looking for a three-peat NLL Champions Cup win. But it was not to be, as the Georgia Swarm captured their first Champion’s Cup, winning the National Lacrosse League title by beating the two-time defending champion Saskatchewan Rush 2-0 in the best-of-three final. Game No.2 ended in
dramatic fashion as the Swarm forced overtime by scoring with three seconds left in regulation, and then winning the game 57 seconds into overtime on a goal by Miles Thompson. The game-winner was set up by Lyle Thompson, who scored a hat trick and was named Champion’s Cup MVP.
The game-winner capped a wild ending to the game and the series. Trailing 10-8 heading into the fourth quarter, the Rush’s offence ignited for four goals in just over three minutes and they jumped ahead 1210. Robert Church pulled the Rush closer only 29 seconds into the fourth as he stormed towards the
Georgia net, fought off a high-stick, and put a shot past Swarm goalie Mike Poulin. Two minutes later, rookie Matt Hossack tied the game for Saskatchewan as he went solo on a fast-break opportunity and hit the far corner with his shot on the run. The Rush took their first lead of the game 43 seconds later when Ben McIntosh

Ranae Kailyn Hill is finally 12!! She’s the youngest daughter but the middle child, she lost her “baby” title once her brothers were born. The day we went in to have her was literally a day off love, shock and sadness… so many emotions in 12hrs. First her name? – her dad named her Ranae.. – I have no clue where that came from?, he sprung that name on me after she was out, I fought it somewhat lol. All I could think of is why that name?... I think it was cause of all the Renee’s Caesar Salad dressing I used (I was obsessed with Caesar salad all while I was pregnant with her). I whipped out the name “Kailyn”, dad didn’t like it, so we ended up with Renae Kailyn.. (she’s the only one of our kids with only 2 names) BUT, within 3min after she was born, I start calling her “my little kk”. She shocked us all with her light coloured hair and fairy coloured glow…. She was pink!.. lol. She was a very very chilledout baby, very content. Who knew she would turn out to be the comedian of the family! Lord have mercy she is full of very rezzed out “one liner’s”, she loves handme-downs, knick-knacks, animals, pizza, and re-enacting movie scenes at any given time!! She’s not the shy type either, she talks to everyone. She is obsessed with having a clean organized room, which is cool with us, until she finds out someone touched or moved or sat on her bed, than she’s hollering around “whooooo sat ON MY BED, GAWWWD!!!” lol.. she’s pretty funny, she a neat tidy kid, and she’s a Buffalo Bills Fan!!. Someday you will probably see her drawings or painting hanging in a gallery somewhere!!, she’s very skilled with her little hands. The day she was born is the same day we lost our buddy Mark, hence the day June 11 is happy yet sad, that day we sat in the hospital room with our brand new daughter, we were in shock and disbelief, someone called up to our floor and let us know that the rumours were sadly true, the nurses asked me if we wanted to be discharged right away due to such emotional news. So there we were at the same hospital, just floors below us was our friend Mark, gone! Way too soon!, he never got to meet our 3rd daughter, he was our buddy, he was always there to help us, he was funny as hell, was always hanging out with us, riding around, him and Brandon teasing each other all the time, we always has lotta laughs. All those times jamming out to Hank Jr in “Bueffs garage”, He left us with so many memories… and in all of them were laughing, he would get mad though when we told him he looked like “Toby Keith” lol. We took our little KK home the next day and that was probably the longest ride, I cried, I don’t know how Brandon got us home, he was crying, I was crying…and it was nothing but Hank Williams Jr, coming out the speakers the entire ride home with our brand new baby. So June 11 will always be a day filled with “remember when stories” and cake! Happy Birthday KK and thanks for the memories Mark… we’ll see you again Bud= KK I had a hard time finding a good picture of you…in all of the your making faces lol…I only found 1 where you’re not being silly!!. XOXO mom, dad, Ash, Brooklyn, Marv and Oaks
