Six Nations urged to stand united against taxation

By Jim Windle

SIX NATIONS – There have been many calls to unity for the people of Six Nations since the original formation of the League of Five Nations, and most of the time, these calls have been for well-intended purposes and even in desperate circumstances. But unfortunately, most of these calls for a united front against an aggressor who threatens the entire community of Haudenosaunee people have been applauded by all and then quickly forgotten.

Time will tell if last week’s community meeting against taxation will follow that same trend or if the Six Nations people themselves are willing to fight this battle as one.

The meeting at Six Nations Polytechnic was well attended with a wide cross section of the community represented.

Elected Chief Bill Montour chaired the meeting, which was encouraged by the Turtle Island Business and Commerce organization and supported by the Men’s Fire and the Mohawk Workers.

“We have been asked by the business community to host this meeting in response to Canada Revenue’s direct attack against Six Nations businesses,” opened Chief Councillor Montour. “This is a listening exercise for the council.”

Several other elected Councilors were present to do just that as well.

But before he opened the

meeting up to the floor, Montour offered his own stance on the taxation issue.

“People are buying commodities and the surrounding retailers are not respecting the tax exempt status we have,” he said.

“In 2010 we fought a battle to keep this community exempt from the HST,” he continued, “But that is when Ontario was collecting the tax. Since 2010 Canada Revenue Agency has been made the tax collector for Canada and the Provinces.

And what they are saying is that everyone in Canada is obligated to pay tax. We say no. That is not what the treaties say and that is not what their own legislation says.” He read directly from the Canadi-

an government’s papers.

“Section 87 of the Indian Act is very clear,” he said. “’Not withstanding any other act of parliament, or any act of the legislature, or the Province, but subject to section 83 and section 12 of the First Nations Fiscal Management Act, the following property is exempt from taxation: a) the interest of an Indian or Band on reserved lands or surrendered lands, b) the personal property of an Indian or Band situated on a reserve.’”

“But CRA has a dif different opinion and they are coming after our people one by one. There are people in this room who are being attacked as we speak. And it’s not just for a bit of change, it’s for quite a lot of money in

some cases.”

After more than two hours of public input from a number of members of the community, some common threads began to form. And it all pointed towards standing together as one people to fight, rather than complaining about what Band Council or the Confederacy Council are or are not doing about the situation.

“If we let the individuals fight it by themselves, we all are all going to fail,” said Montour. “I believe this is a community issue and we have to come together and create a strategy of how we are going to fight this, because they are going to be relentless.”

The present Harper Government is transparent about one thing. That

being their goal to privatize reserve lands so they are then taxable, and to steal away what remains of Onkwehon:we sovereignty by removing the land that now protects these rights.

“We are in critical times here,” said Montour. “I believe this is a constitutional issue. But if we as a community can stand together, we can beat these people.”

But it will not happen without a well-coordinated battle plan.

That is what Montour seemed to be most interested in — to formulate a strategy that would transcend the many divisions within the community, which the government of Canada has capitalized on time and time again.

matters relating to the judicial system, seperation, divorce and children.

Beck told the crowd there are three ways a child can be apprehended by the CAS. Two common ways are through a voluntary service agreement with parents and the agency, or through a court order. In extreme cases, or in the case of an emergency, a social worker with the Children’s Aid Society can remove a child without either one of these documents, but the action must be brought before a judge within five days to secure its status.

Some parents seeking help from CCW state they were tricked into signing temporary agreements, or lied to by social workers to get their children out the door.

“What is happening with CAS today is not much different than what they did with the residential school system,” Beck told the crowd. “If you sign and were coerced you can have the service agree-

ment rendered null and void. That is extortion.

Extortion makes them null and void.”

The event, organized

by Six Nations social worker Brandi Martin, was aimed at educating parents to know their rights. There was also a large discussion about the protocol social workers and the courts are required to follow when investigating a family.

“If you know that something is fundamentally wrong and will bring harm to you or your children, don’t sign it.” Beck said to the people. “It’s better that your case goes into the courts first before you sign your rights away.”

Martin says there is a growing need for advocacy in the community for parents dealing with CAS. She was a young mother when her three children were apprehended by the CAS and placed under a temporary care agreement. She was afraid, and was willing to agree to any standards set be-

fore her. Unfortunately and because she lacked knowledge, she says she was coerced by social workers. “They told me their Gramma was going to babysit. The kids went over there for the weekend and they never came home. Instead of the kids coming home, a society worker came to my house and said if I didn’t sign that agreement the kids would stay temporarily with their grandparents for one to three months and then they would go to a judge and get my kids adopted out and I would never see my kids again.”

Martin signed the agreement and eight years later she is still fighting in the courts for the return of her two daughters.

The painful experience makes her passion to educate parents about their rights all the more important to her. She says if she’d been aware of her rights at the time, “...the children wouldn’t have been out of my home for a day.” Martin was approved to have her college

work placement within the Native Services Branch of the Children’s Aid Society in Brantford – the very agency that apprehended her children. It was during this work placement she was able to learn the protocol workers were instructed to follow in her case.

During her placement Martin also discovered the paperwork sent when she requested disclosure from CAS about her case was incomplete. Many relevant documents were not included. “I only received my case notes,” she said. It is a common situation many parents in the public online forums at Canada Court Watch are experiencing as well.

“These [missing] records show about the events that happened...the decisions made about these children, the funding that they [CAS] are getting how they are getting this funding what legal status that these children actually have. If you were to get the whole file it’s possible to see that there was

a hundred complaints about the person your kids have been placed with and they didn’t move them.”

Beck says the best action folks can do is to know their rights and have a good parenting plan in place to prevent children being removed from the primary care of the family.

Martin says the start to a local solution may be for an autonomous agency within the Six Nations that does not follow the Canadian structure at all.

“Child protection is needed in cases. What I have learned is that a long time ago before CAS, the clan mothers were the ones that had that job of intervention when a child needs to be removed from a home. I really feel that we should have our own child protection laws, rather than taking the Canadian way of doing things.”

Canada Court Watch speaks about parental rights and CAS

by Nahnda Garlow OHSWEKEN, ON – Nearly a hundred people gathered at the community hall last week to hear guest lecturer Vernon Beck address parent’s rights when dealing with the Children’s Aid Society.

The meeting was open to the public, however employees and volunteers to the Children’s Aid Society were not permitted entry to protect the privacy of those seeking more information.

Beck was representing Canada Court Watch (CCW), an independent advocacy group pressing for accountability from the judicial and family law systems. Beck was invited to bring awareness to the Six Nations community about what every parent’s legal rights are, and where the authority of a worker operating through Canada’s Child Protection Act ends. According to the Canada Court Watch website, the group follows principles of fairness and justice in

“I propose that instead of getting ourselves all caught up in bureaucracies that are not ours, we revert back to our traditions and who we are and conduct our businesses the way we are supposed to, and govern ourselves accordingly.”

— Audrey Squire-Hill “There is another threat,” said Montour.

“With Harper’s majority government, bill C-38, bill C-35 and others over the last couple of years, they have changed about 77 different Acts and many of them deal with us. In January 2012, this man stood in front of us and said I will not be tinkering with the Indian Act. It’s too deep rooted. But what he does in 2012 and 2013 is actually exactly that, tinkering with the Indian Act.” He warned that eliminating the Indian Act without something better ready to replace it, there would be a vacuum, which he says, “natural law would fill with something we are not going to like.”

Speaker after speaker from the floor presented his or her own personal battles against taxation and how every

inch gained has been taken back with interest someplace else.

Some spoke about the unfairness of the cigarette quota system, and how the government won that battle despite a Supreme Court judgment against them.

Others offered possible solutions for consideration.

Audrey Hill, speaking for the Turtle Island Business and Commerce group, which initiated the meeting, offered her perspective.

“We have a position paper that clearly says that we have been doing trade and commerce throughout Turtle Island for centuries to take care of our families and communities,” she offered.

“I propose that instead of getting ourselves all caught up in bureaucracies that are not ours, we revert back to our tradi-

tions and who we are and conduct our businesses the way we are supposed to, and govern ourselves accordingly.”

She was only the first of many to, in different ways, articulate the same message.

The Men’s Fire, with the input and endorsement of the Turtle Island Business and Commerce group and the Mohawk Workers read from a prepared statement that has been sent to various levels of government explaining their stance against privatization and taxation.

“I am not exempt – I have immunity from taxation because of who I am,” said Bill Monture of the Men’s Fire. “Right now I am fighting it.”

One recommendation came from a woman familiar with the traps some Nations in British Columbia have stepped

I’ve seen band councils jump and beg to the Canadian government to get more funding. But something people don’t look at is the eight points of jurisdiction. I have heard our elected chair say we have to fight this as a community. NO! We need to fight it as a Confederacy because there are Oneida, Onondaga, Mohawk, Seneca, Tuscarora and Cayuga in this room.”

He called for the Elected Council to accept the eight points and turn the authority back to the Confederacy and support them in any way possible as administrators and a link to Ottawa.

“This Band Council must fight this with the Treaties as a confederacy,” he said.

GRE President Steve Williams once again brought up an often talked about plan to keep the $130 million his com-

“I believe that the Band Council are administrators of funds, but the real power comes from the Confederacy. All Haudenosaunee come from the same roots. We are brothers and sisters. Let’s act that way.” — Elvera Garlow into by accepting Prime Minister Harper’s “modernizing the Treaties” scheme.

“They cannot take our treaties away,” she said as a warning. “That is something we do ourselves.”

Another gentleman was a little harder on Band Council in his remarks.

“The Nanfan treaty calls for free trade and commerce within the borders of the Nanfan,” said Kelly Curley. “I have that right, but they didn’t give that to us, we gave that to them. They are not giving us anything.

If Band Council doesn’t jump when they say so, they turn off the funding.

pany pays the Canadian government annually to help fund the community should the feds turn off the funding in the wake of a possible class action suit or other direct actions by Six Nations against taxation.

Cyril Frazer, owner of the Bright Feather Laundromat and other businesses, has been in a 27-year personal battle with the government over taxes.

He encouraged Band Council to methodically work with the feds and forget the province on this issue.

Others complained that past efforts to get help from either the elected body or the traditional

chief has brought nothing but frustration and disappointment, and echoed the thoughts of some others that the fight has to be made by the unified people of Six Nations rather than expecting either council to do it on their behalf.

Elvera Garlow seemed to wrap up the general consensus of the people in attendance when she called for a community driven initiative against the taxman.

“I like the fact we are meeting together,” she said. “I agree we need to do it ourselves. Idle No More captured the attention of Ottawa and we must follow the same process.

“Council is now asking us for solutions, and that’s good. I recommend this council not take the lead, but a community group be struck to do that. This council would provide funds and resources. That would be their contribution and the Elected Chief or Confederacy Chiefs or both speak in Ottawa, if needed.”

Anticipating the usual comeback from any plan that would include the elected system, she added, “It’s not sleeping in the same bed.”

She explained that in

GRE President Steve Williams her understanding, the Two Row Wampum principle applies here too.

That the Elected council as the administrative body and the Confederacy can co-exist as two distinctly separate but allied systems, as long as they don’t cross each other.

“I believe in the Clan system,” she said. “I believe that the Band Council are administrators of funds, but the real power comes from the Confederacy. All Haudenosaunee come from the same roots. We are brothers and sisters. Let’s act that way.”

In the end Chief Montour recommended a community committee be struck which does not include Band Council or the Confederacy Council, but rather, the people themselves supported by both councils.

Into the Pipeline, Down the rabbit hole

By Benjamin Doolittle

BRANTFORD - On September 25th-26th, 2013 Enbridge Pipelines conducted a full-scale exercise simulating a pipeline rupture, an oil breach scenario that would see around 4,400 barrels of sour crude oil leach into the Grand River.

The exercise involved Enbridge operators and contractors communicating in attempts to prevent catastrophic damages to local water facilities and infrastructure.

A City of Brantford news release related that the City will “observe the exercise only”.

Brantford is to use the Enbridge training exercise as part of the city’s annual emergency response exercises.

Not mentioned in the news release was the distinct possibility that the pipeline, better known as Line 9, would be carrying a potentially dangerous tar sands product called diluted bitumen.

Diluted bitumen, also known as ‘dilbit’, is a sticky mess of Alberta tar sands bitumen, water, solvents and particulates. According to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, dilbit is as “hard as a hockey puck” at 10 degrees Celsius.

In order for the oil to flow through the Enbridge pipelines, the tar

sands bitumen must be diluted with toxins such as benzene, a known carcinogen.

During spills ‘dilbit’ reportedly sinks to the bottom of lakes and rivers. This is unlike sour crude oil, which floats and may be contained with floating booms.

When an Enbridge pipeline carrying dilbit burst on the Kalamazoo River it contaminated not only the water, but

Hotel at 10:00 am. This provided the media and participants with the kind of information that would be made available in a real-life situation.

Documents released at the press conference included a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for “Crude Oil - Sour”, however, the product composition notes showed materials associated with diluted bitumen, such as Hexane, Benzene, Tolu-

also the air in the surrounding community.

The breach was not detected for 15 hours after its rupture, and by that time, more than 800,000 gallons of dilbit had spilt into the river.

Three years later, the clean-up is still not complete.

In Brantford, an orchestrated “emergency response” press conference was held by Enbridge on September 25, 2013 in the Hampton Inn

ene, Hydrogen Sulfide and Xylenes.

An Encana MSDS for Crude Oil (Sour), shows only Benzene and Hydrogen Sulfide, and in significantly lesser amounts than shown on Enbridge’s so-called MSDS for the same product.

Additionally the MSDS from the U.S. Department of State for “Dilbit”, filed under the Keystone XL sub-domain, describes its haz-

ards as harmful, fatal, cancerous and irritating.

Inhalation of dilbit fumes at certain concentrations are reported to cause respiratory paralysis, collapse and death.

The components shown on the State Dept MSDS not only exactly match the so-called Enbridge “Crude Oil” MSDS, but also almost completely match the order of their presentation.

Just prior to the press conference, Sun Media reporter Micheal-Allan Marion, and a Brant News reporter, entered the conference hall appearing frustrated, Marion then complained to an Enbridge official that he was refused entrance at the spill zone, where he apparently had a pre-arranged meeting with Brantford’s Mayor.

Ironically, one week before the Sun Media/ Chris Friel meeting apparently fell through, Sun Media and Brant News were granted exclusive access to a public City Hall meeting with the Mayor of Brantford, the City Solicitor and the City CFO. Ongoing attempts to cover critical stories such as this have been met with unfriendliness and closed doors as the City of Brantford council curtailed media access to City Hall public meetings and open forums to a reporter for the Two Row Times.

On Sept. 18, 2013 the Two Row Times sent a letter to the Mayor’s of office requesting an explanation for our expulsion from City Hall and the exclusion of a Two Row Times reporter from the city council meeting on September 17. Brantford’s response is still pending.

A lack of democracy and doors locked to public forums or public officials harms our societies both as hosts and as guests. How can the newcomers fulfill

their duty to consult with Onkwehon:we nations when reporters for Onkwehon:we media are denied access to the supposedly open and democratic processes of non-native governance structures.

Mutual respect and understanding are out of reach when doors are

closed and reporters are denied the freedom to investigate the public interest.

St. Regis Tribal Council drawn into Salmon River coaching fiasco

By Charles Kader AKWESASNE - The Sept 13th meeting of the Salmon River Central School District Board was regionally newsworthy. It also provided a glimpse of the simmering political tug of war between the St. Regis Tribal Council and local New York municipal government entities.

Although the meeting minutes will show widespread comments about the status of sidelined former champion high school hockey coach Bill Plante, a deeper divide between the Tribe and the heavily state subsidized school district was evident by the end of the night.

The appearance and involvement of both past and present St. Regis Tribal Council elected officials and tribal program administrators showed the political prominence that education-related issues have taken on within Akwesasne.

Among those present was elected Tribal Sub-Chief Michael Conners, who had been

accused of “political badgering” at a prior meeting by the president of the elected board of education.

A statement by former St. Regis Tribal Council member James Ransom, the chair of the tribal Education committee, caused a stir among the board members. Chief Ransom, a former elected member of the same school board in past years, expressed his indignation at the consideration of re-employing Coach Bill Plante on the Salmon River High School Shamrocks hockey team. Plante was discharged from that position for cause. Ransom asserted that each current member of the school board could be held legally responsible without immunity for their actions if they voted to reverse previous board resolutions involving Bill Plante’s coaching status.

Mr. Plante did not speak at the meeting.

Instead, a number of supporters took up his cause, including some former players from Akwesasne.

Plante had been removed from his head coaching position after a recording was made of him speaking to young male players of the Salmon River hockey program by a player who was present.

The former head coach was heard uttering numerous profanities towards the young men, in what his supporters described as a motivational pep talk.

The transcribed remarks have been made available for review by the St. Regis Tribe Public Information Office at: http://goo.gl/akiBjH. Excerpts of the coach’s comments were repeated by many of the tribal members present in the crowded board room, during the public comment session. The assembled speakers ranged from a retired tribal member of the New York State Education Department to members of the Tribal Council who were present, including two elected chiefs with Longhouse backgrounds.

Nye was quoted saying that the regular board meeting had turned into a witch hunt, af after speakers went 45 minutes beyond the 10 minute limit imposed on public comment. The 14 speakers were themselves split between tribal detractors and Plante supporters.

Plante was repeatedly quoted from the transcript by the meeting attendees as stating: “Nobody gives a ---t whether you’re dead or alive”; “You’re a bunch of ---king retards”; “Everybody’s ---tting all over you guys”; ”I don’t believe you’re a bunch of ---king Indians…Native Americans, whatever you want to ---king be called”; and “None

ed in a 4-4 tie with one member abstaining.

Following the meeting adjournment, Greg Cunningham, the school board Vice President, resigned from his elected position, without comment. He had cast one of the votes against altering the 2008 resolution to rehire Plante.

Akwesasne community members remained upset by the overall school district mentality toward the treatment of their young people.

At least one member of the Tribal Council that attended the meeting intends to run for the school board in the next election. It looks as if a seat has now been made open for such an effort.

The former coach had been removed in February 2008, and the terms of his dismissal went to arbitration. The original 2008 school board resolution prohibited his ever coaching again within the school district, where he remains employed as a physical education instructor.

Onkwehon:we (Oh-gway-howay) – Original people or complete person. It could be used interchangeably with the Algonquin word Anishnaabeg.

An indigenous word for “Indian” does not exist but this could be considered the most accurate replacement.

ca between sovereign nations of the Haudenosaunee and the British. A belt of white wampum symbolizes the peaceful path or river of life and two parallel rows of purple wampum represent non-interfer non-interference between Haudenosaunee and British vessels.

Haudenosaunee (Hoh-denoh-show-nee) – people of the longhouse also known as League of Five Nations, Six Nations Confederacy or Iroquois. Politically similar to the modern United Nations, the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga and Seneca nations unified in purpose while maintaining autonomy and diversity. The Tuscarora nation was added to the council in 1720.

Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt – The dish or bowl metaphor was used to describe the agreement amongst indigenous groups who peacefully shared the hunting resources of the Great Lakes region. The general concept of the bowl can also be applied to represent the entire continent.

Wampum Belts – Channelled whelk and Quahog shells crafted into beads used for important political purposes among the Haudenosaunee and other eastern woodland nations. Because the oral traditions and histories of indigenous peoples were so important these belts embodied a living agreement and served as a memory device for successive generations to interpret.

Two Row Wampum Belt, 1677 – the relationship agreement or “Prime Treaty” of North Ameri-

Turtle Island – the land of North America but it has also been interpreted to represent the entire earth.

Kanien’kehá:ka (Gun-yee-gayhaw-gah)– literally translated “People of the place of the flint” and is the proper name for the Mohawk people. Mohawk could be a transliteration of the derogatory term “Mohowawogs” which means flesh eaters or perhaps cannibals.

Gayogohó:no’ (Guy-yoh-go-ohno) – literally, people of the great swamp but is the proper name for the Cayuga people.

EDITORIAL: Native rights record blacken Harper’s eye In today’s information age, it is impossible to keep skeletons in the closet for long, as Prime Minister Stephen Harper is finding out.

The veil is being torn off of Canada’s once proud image as one of the world’s best countries to live in as well as its veneer-thin reputation as a world leader in Human Rights advocacy.

The Stephan Harper Conservative government has been under fire for the past several years from the international community for its poor treat treatment of Indigenous Peoples within Canada, amongst other violations.

Recently, even more stakes were driven into the heart of the once proud Canadian facade.

CBC News reports that, at the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva, Cuba, Iran, Belarus and Russia sternly criticized Canada’s refusal to accept a U.N. recommended national review to end violence against Aboriginal women. Other countries that called for the review included Switzerland, Norway, Slovenia, Slovakia and New Zealand.

Countries have their human rights records reviewed every four years by the Geneva-based UN forum, but Harper has been highly critical of the process all along and a couple of weeks ago he flatly refused the U.N.’s call for a national review.

In total, Canada has reject rejected 162 recommendations from other countries.

U.N., Special Rapporteur, James Anaya, will be visiting Canada in October to begin his investigations into claims of ongoing and systematic abuse of Canada’s Indigenous peoples.

The British Broadcast Corporation (BBC) reports that Canada’s rush for riches at the Alberta Oil Sands has led the government to ride roughshod over environmental concerns, human rights and Aboriginal treaties.

After Harper axed the Kyoto Protocol, the world began looking a little closer at the decades of reported abuses against Indigenous peoples, as well as violations of the Unit United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and its own Constitution.

Harper once wrote a letter when he was leader of the former Canadian Alliance party, stating that the Koyoto Accord was “a socialist scheme to suck money out of wealth producing nations.”

David Suzuki, a scientist, environmentalist and Canada’s loudest voices against the oil sands project fears that in Ottawa’s thirst for money, the environment could be forever ruined.

“The warming that has been going on in the Arctic is undeniable,” Environmental activist and TV personality Da-

vid Suzuki told the BBC. “But, what Mr. Harper is seeing is all this economic activity that we’ll be able to mine more resources and ship them through the Northwest Passage. The ecological implications of all that are just monumental.”

Smear campaigns against environmental groups were also cited in the BBC article.

“Canada has long held a somewhat mythologized image internationally as a bastion of decency and environmentalism,” says George Monbiot, one of Europe’s leading environmentalists. “But Canadians have seen an increasingly dif different picture with continued maltreatment of First Nations peoples, over-fishing, the seal hunts, clear-cut logging, national inactivity on climate change and the perpetual destruction from mining Alberta’s Tar Sands.”

He goes on to expose that the opening of the tar sands operation is “the world’s biggest single industrial source of carbon emissions in the world today.”

Under Harper’s regime, Canada also lost its seat at Unit United Nations Security Council due to its human rights record against Indigenous peoples.

And if that wasn’t enough, Canada now leads on the World Bank’s running list of people and companies barred from receiving financing under its fraud and corruption policy. Oh Canada, indeed.

Walk Against Violence brings community together in Peace

By Jim Windle OHSWEKEN – Six Nations Walk Against Violence Participants walked through the Six Nations community from all four directions, ending at Veteran’s Park, Ohsweken for free burgers and hot dogs, speeches and valuable information directed primarily towards youth.

According to Sandra Montour, Executive Director of Ganohkwasra, Family Assault Support Services, it has been decided to make this walk against violence an annual affair that will happen the last Saturday of September every year.

“We started out in our Walk Against Violence in the four directions coming together carrying signs and chanting against violence within this com-

munity and for peace,” said Montour. “We had about 120 that walked, and we have about 300 here at the Park. Once the four directions came together, the children released 88 balloons into the air.”

The ‘88’ represents two infinity symbols, which speak of balance and eternity, she explains.

“What we said when they were released was, may these find a way to promote peace and love in our community,’” says Montour.

Amongst the speakers were retired Justice of the Peace, Norma General who spoke on how our Creator has faith in us to give us the good mind and how we were given the earth and it’s bounty to sustain us.

An estimated 300 participants gathered at Veterans Part in downtown Ohsweken Saturday following the four directions walk through the community to bring awareness to the ongoing problems of violence within homes and within the community at large.

guage and how difficult that was for him. But his message was that if he can do it, anyone could do it if they really want

to and if they work at it.

Up and coming singer/songwriter Lacey Hill sang a self-penned song, which was very well received.

“She is a youth recruitment worker at Mohawk College,” says Montour. “She spoke of her own journey as a child and youth worker and encouraged young people not to give up, and to pursue their dreams.”

Young Six Nations lacrosse star Johnny Powless spoke on not giving up on your dream and not to let anyone say you are too small, and that you can’t do it.

If you want to do something you can if you are willing to work hard to get it. He also encouraged a healthy life style and being careful about what you put into your body.

“Summer Johns,

runner up for Miss Six Nations this year, spoke at the Miss Six Nations pageant about being substance free, not taking drugs or alcohol and we were quite impressed with that, so we asked her to come and speak,” says Montour.

“She did a wonderful job encouraging youth to seek out support in whatever they are doing because that support is there, one only needs to ask.”

Ganohkwasra is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year as well and will be setting up a weeklong series of events and activities within the community for November. More details will be made available as they are solidified, according to Montour.

Despite where you stand on religion or Christianity specifically, a lie is a lie even if the church utters it. One of the greatest lies ever pulled off on people the world over is that “God” chose indi-

vidual “families” to rule over the rest of humanity. Even though many, including Americans who should know better, are still enamored by the notion of “princes and princesses,” most of us now relegate this stupid fairytale to Disney cartoons and the mainstream media’s coverage of a meaningless “royal family.”

Today there is another monumental ancient big lie that simply won’t die. Well, at least the U.S. and Canada hope it won’t. The Doctrine of Christian Discovery is actually a bigger lie than even the monarchy ordained by “God” that no one buys anymore. This doctrine is based almost solely on a series of decrees by 15th century popes. Simply stated, the Vatican ruled that when a Christian people came into the lands of pagans – or non-believers – Christians could claim their land, their possessions and reduce those pagans to perpetual slavery.

Of course, this sounds so preposterous that a reasonable person would assume such a practice and policy would have died with slavery. Certainly, it would have no place in a

nation that claims to operate with a separation of church and state. But not only is this doctrine codified in U.S. law with court rulings and legislation built upon those rulings but it is the basis of all U.S. land title. It is also the foundation that the house of cards that is “federal Indian law” is built upon. There is no event, no treaty, no surrender, no petition and no referendum that ever placed us “pagans” under the authority of the United States or anyone else. There are only the words of dead popes and the dead judges who regurgitated them.

The United Nations even felt compelled to state, what should be obvious to all, in the third affirmation of the U.N. Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP): Affirming further that all doctrines, policies and practices based on or advocating superiority of peoples or individuals on the basis of national origin or racial, religious, ethnic or cultural differences are racist, scientif scientifically false, legally invalid, morally condemnable and socially unjust.

So, surely, with the en-

tire international community condemning religious based racism, issues including equating discovery with conquest and the exclusively European-based transferrable “discovery title” with legitimate land ownership must be revisited. After

force must be enough to overcome the strongest attraction known to man. That is the attraction between a rich man and his money.

The church is in no hurry to put this issue to rest. How much have they pillaged from the “New World” in five cen-

all, can the world sit by and ignore the theft of land, subjugation and genocide of an entire hemisphere of people based on religious dogma?

Yes, it can. And, it does.

The UNDRIP is just words on paper unless someone gives it force.

The force required isn’t just to overcome the inertia of history. It has to overcome world powers posturing for control of water, oil, minerals, gas and all the other natural resources on the lands of us “pagans” — the land, too, for that matter. The

turies? How much do they still pillage? And who else has benefited?

Even the Jewish judge on the U.S. Supreme Court cited the Christian Discovery Doctrine in a rationale to dismiss a Native land claim a few years ago. Think about it: a Jewish woman citing 15th century Papal Bulls. And this was in 2005. How ironic and absurd is that?

It is one thing for Chief Justice John Marshal to make racist rulings in 1823 when a black man still could be bought and sold, a woman was still regarded as

a man’s possession, and an “Indian” was just a savage with way too much land. But even in an era of offering apologies while admitting no guilt, there must be movement on this.

I once asked at the U.N., “Who gives the UNDRIP force?” Who repudiates racist doctrines that continue to support unjust policies? The only answer I got was, “We do.”

Let’s do it then. But first let’s learn how their house of cards is built. Investigate their BS and don’t let it stand!

Coming out of the closet

by Nahnda Garlow This morning I woke up with great anticipation of what the day might bring. Here was my plan; go to the gym, do my laundry, then sit down for an afternoon of beading and pow wow videos.

This is the perfect day.

Throw in a cup of coffee and a chat with my sister and the day would have been top notch.

Instead, I spent the morning working in the print shop. Not that I am complaining, normally I enjoy the work. But this morning it felt like everything was getting on my nerves. Every one of my pet peeves came before me. For example, there was a bwoot fly in the print shop that wouldn’t stop landing on me, someone next to me at lunch was chewing

like a horse, and every time I sat down to write I got a phone call, a knock at the door, or an email that needed my immediate attention.

I finally sat down with some time to myself and realized that I’d spent nearly the entire day with my yoga pants on backwards, which included a very public trip to the plaza in Ohsweken. Deep breath in, long breath out. I hope nobody noticed.

If I close my eyes and concentrate my mind drifts back to that hopeful place this morning, where beading the day away was all that I could see. Ah, my beading table and my beads! My own private island of paradise where I don’t have to deal with anything except broken needles and running out of thread.

Paradise awaits, calling my name yet here I was getting paper cuts trying to make a living. I felt like going fetal and crying out, “I just want to bead!”

Creator has given us, yet we are pressured daily to keep pace with the world and grow their economy.

Organizations across the country are rushing to give accolades to

stop the train, I’m getting off. I’d rather be counted in with the hobos.

I am an Onondaga, but the truth is I am first a rez girl: a Hill-General from the upper end. My dreams of a successful life include a fully beaded outfit by the time I reach the Golden Age category and making sure my kids go door to door for No:ia.

I use the terms ‘heckinit’, ‘ace’, and ‘simmer’ in their proper reservation context. I am not phased when I see hickeys on old people and I can turn a can of tomatoes and a bag of macaroni into the best thing you ever ate.

Consider how the term “rez” became a derogatory term in the first place. I propose a social reclamation of sorts. Dispute the disgrace! Loving who we are, as we are, just may be the strong chess move whereby we reject the stigma of shame and stereotypes implanted in the Canadian psyche about reserve life, turn the tables, and change the status quo.

Cold Lake emptied by oil company to contain bitumen leaks

By Steve Da Silva Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. is now taking drastic measure of emptying out two-thirds of Cold Lake to contain the spilling of bitumen at no less than four sites at its Cold Lake project for over a month now. More than 1.5 million liters of bitumen (a mixture of oil sands, heavy crude and water) is said to have leaked.

The bitumen leaked is the equivalent of 9600 barrels.

The site of the oil spill is on Treaty 6 territory near the Denesuline (‘Chipewyan’) communi-

ty of Cold Lake First Nation, a community of the larger Dene nation.

The leaks are being caused by the high-pressure steam that is pumped into the ground to extract bitumen. But instead of coming out of the wells, the bitumen is spreading through unknown cracks in the ground, damaging local land, water, and wildlife.

The most difficult leak to contain is in lake, where the bitumen is pushing through the ground under the water.

The Cold Lake First Nation is demanding answers for the leaks,

which are damaging traditional hunting grounds. A statement from the Cold Lake First Nation claims that the number of known sites where bitumen is pushing through the ground has grown to six. ``I`m really distressed about the safety of our drinking water, animals, vegetation and how this is affecting the aquifers underneath our Dene lands. Our future generations will not be able to enjoy what once was pristine Denesuline territory. Animals such as wolves and bears are now migrating through

blockade of the site began in mid-August by the ‘Klabona Keepers’, who have been resisting Fortune Minerals projects since 2005. The blockade culminated last week with the eviction of mine workers by the Tahltan Central Council.

The project would remove most of Mount Klappan in northwestern B.C. and replace it with a 4,000 hectare open-pit mine, as well threatening to irreparably damage the sacred headwaters of the Stikine, Nass and Spatsizi

rivers and destroy traditional hunting grounds.

The project is planned to operate for 25 years, and consist of a new rail line to Prince Rupert to ship three million tonnes of anthracite coal to Asia each year.

Walpole Island Rekindles Tecumseh’s Vision WALLACEBURG – The Walpole Island First Nation has kicked off a week of events to commemorate and honour the Shawnee war leader Tecumseh. The events are expected to gather many from the Great Lakes region.

Tecumseh quite successfully united a broad number of Onkwehon:we

to oppose and resist the violent settler colonialism unfolding after the American independence from Britain; and he was admired and followed for his principled resistance to surrendering lands to the settlers. Tecumseh was killed in the War of 1812, on October 5, 1813 at the Battle of the Thames after the Brit-

ish commander failed to send promised support to Tecumseh’s forces.

Rekindle events are also being held this week at Delaware First Nation in Moraviantown, as well as at Chippewa of the Thames First Nation, Munsee-Delaware First Nation and Oneida Nation of the Thames.

Car Show attracts classic machines

By Jim Windle

SIX NATIONS – The inaugural “I Found It On The Rez” swap meet and car show ran this past weekend at the Chiefswood Garage at the corner of Chiefswood and Sixth Line. It was a good start for what organizer Charlie Skye is planning to have as ayearly event.

Vintage car buffs brought their metal babies to show and compete and maybe pick up some vintage parts for future restorations.

As fate would have it, a wedding reception at Yogi’s Place beside the garage brought even more show cars for visitors to ogle over. The entire wedding party arrived in vintage vehicles and parked them out front, and visible to traffic, which brought more curious visitors to the Car Show.

“That wasn’t planned at all but it sure helped,” said Skye.

The best in show, first place winner was Jeff Henhawk’s 1967 Chevelle.

Second prize went post posthumously to Yogi Bomberry’s 1967 Camaro, and third prize went to Cork Bomberry and his 1949 purple Chevy Coup.

There were two other vehicles on show that caught the attention of many as well. The most interesting was a Studebaker/El Camino hybrid concoction the owner/ restorer called his “Studefaker”

Also proudly gleaming in the sun was Wallace Ruttan’s custom two door 1942 Olds Hydra Matic, with a straight-8, TH 355 engine and a Ford rear end. There were only 419 two-doors and 3,500 four-door units built in the US before the country entered into WWII and retooled the auto factories for the war effort. At the right auction, this vehicle would be worth several tens of thousands of dollars.

Band Council seeks input Oil train derails in Sask. – Premier calls for more pipelines on Solar Energy deal

By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS Community Engagement Coordinator for Six Nations Economic Development, Dan Henhawk, is seeking Six Nations community involvement regarding the latest Solar Energy project being proposed within the territory.

According to a media release, the solar farm is anticipated to generate 8 megawatts in renewable energy, which will be sold to the Ontario Power Authority under the Feed in Tariff Program. This project will be owned and operated by Brantgate Solar Farm Partnership and will be located on Consession 11 in the County of Brant.

The proposed project benefits potentially include a one-time payment of $125,000 to Six Nations.

“This community engagement process is part of Six Nations Council’s commitment to hear the community voices so that our people can help guide our decisions surrounding development projects, such as the proposed Brantgate Solar Farm,” says Elected Chief Bill Montour.

The community engagement process has been designed to educate the Six Nations community about the financial, economic, and and environmental impact associated with the project, and provides a community wide mech-

anism to gather feedback that will help guide the Six Nations Council.

The community engagement process will run from Oct. 1st to Oct. 25th, 2013; the community meetings are scheduled to occur Oct. 8th at the Six Nations Community Hall and 17th at Six Nations Tourism Assembly Room. The community meetings will provide further information and will include the opportunity for community members to have oneon-one discussions with technical staff about the project.

A Canadian National Railway Co. train derailed west of Saskatoon on Wednesday, Sept.

25, 2013. (RCMP) SASKATOON – Last Wednesday, September 25, a Canadian National Rail train with 17 cars carrying hazardous materials, including flammable petroleum, ethanol, and other chemicals, derailed near Landis, Saskatchewan, on Treaty 6 Territory.

No people were injured, and the leaked oil

was reportedly minimal and contained, unlike the Lac Megantic disaster in June 2013, which killed 47 and destroyed much of the town.

Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall used the derailment as an opportunity to hail the benefits of building more oil pipelines: “We are going to be railing more oil out of this

province, that’s just the fact of the matter. We’re doing it now and frankly doing it efficiently and safely for the most part, again from a statistical standpoint. But we need pipelines. We need them and we need to be unequivocal that pipelines are still certainly the best way.”

By Steve Da Silva VANCOUVER – Shawn A-in-chut Atleo, the National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations, spoke to the Vancouver Board of Trade last week, indicating a willingness to work with the federal government on major resource extraction projects, if the terms of the agreements were better for First Nations.

Speaking to the Vancouver Board of Trade last Friday, September 27, Atleo said that “We are at a moment of either collaboration or collision” and that he wanted to see a “balance between development and environment.”

“There’s a recognition that [First Nations] will shape the conversation about both extraction of natural resources but also distribution.”

Since the peaking of Idle No More in the beginning of 2013, and even long before, many grassroots Onkwehon: we people have been wondering if the rhetoric and posturing by the AFN around resource development is not just about securing a larger share of the spoils from such projects rather than the deeper concerns of many Onkwehon:we and even non-Onkwehon:we, which include concerns about ecological de-

struction, forfeiture of land claims, and the reality that too often so little of the profits reaped by these projects go to the people, as the blockade of diamond mines near Attawapiskat earlier this year illustrated.

Across Canada, grassroots Onkwenhon:we are often taking independent if not conflicting positions than Chief and Council in relation to resource-related projects, such as fracking in New Brunswick.

Atleo said in his presentation that “This is not only about saying yes or no to a single proposal, it’s about being involved in driving a new vision forward.”

Caledonia powerplays ground the Flyers

By Jim Windle

CALEDONIA - The Caledonia powerplay made the difference in Saturday night’s 4-1 win over Niagara Falls at the Haldimand Centre. All four Corvair goals were scored with a Niagara Falls Flyer in the penalty box to keep Caledonia’s perfect 8-0-0 record intact.

Kyler Nixon accounted for the only goal of the first period, scored at 3:58 from Connor Murphy and Spencer Gourlay, with Tory McLean in the box for slashing.

There were a total of 24 shots in the second period, but neither Hunter Johnson in the Flyers net nor Colin Furlong for the Corvairs could be beaten,

despite good chances at both ends of the ice.

The Flyers were grounded in the third by three power play goals.

Cosimo Fontana struck at 8:20 from Murphy and Matt Quilty, and five minutes later, Gourlay made it 3-0, assisted by Murphy.

The Corvairs were having so much success on the power play, that they got a little reckless at 18:41, allowing Niagara Falls a shorthanded goal at 18:41, scored by Matthew Mannella.

Late in the game, the Flyers took two minor penalties, one for Cross Checking and the other for Abuse of Officials, offering up yet another power play opportunity for Caledonia, which

Ryan Moran took full advantage of at 18:53, from Mitch Brown and Brier Jonathan.

With the 4-1 loss, the Flyers have slipped to seventh place in the nineteam Golden Horseshoe Conference, with a 3-3-0 record.

Friday night at the Vale Centre, the Port Colborne Pirates’ goaltender, Mitchell Knight enjoyed the game of his life turning aside 44 of 45 Caledonia shots in the Corvairs’ 1-0 win.

The shots were 28-17 after two scoreless periods, and the game almost went to a 0-0 OT session when Spencer Gourlay finally beat Mitchell at the 19 minute mark of the third period. Justin Abram and Connor Mur-

phy supplied the assists.

This coming Friday night, the Corvairs take their clean slate into St. Catharines to face the 7-1-0 second place Falcons. Then, on Saturday night, the Welland Canadians are the guests at the Haldimand Centre.

Game time is 7:30 pm.

The Canadians are a better team than their 8 points in 7 games might appear. They carry two OT losses which would tie them with Thorold for third place had they been able to pull these games out of the fire.

Connor Murphy leads the Caledonia offence so far in the 2013-2014 Jr. B schedule with 8 goals and 11 assists in 8 games played.

in that first tournament.

That number has since doubled, with teams signing up from the surrounding communities as well as Tyendinaga.

One of the tournament organizers, Kevin Brant stated, “We are hoping to get teams from all other reserves in years to come.”

According to Kevin Brant, the Active Lifestyle fund was started in conjunction with the tournament “to help fund sports for a healthy lifestyle and healthy way of living”. Bub Maracle also wanted to help the language program in Tyendinaga. Tournament proceeds are donated by the family to assist the Kawenna’on:we Primary Kanyen’keha Immersion Program.

The weekend promises to be filled with lots of fun playing ball. There is a home run derby on Saturday and a number of raffles for partici-

pants and spectators alike. Melissa Maracle, a regular team member, had this to say about why she attends every year, “because Bub`s daughter goes to the Immersion school and he was always a strong support of our school.

He attended meetings to get things started and he had always been a good friend.”

The first game begins Saturday at 8:00 a.m sharp. The entry fee is $300.00 with cash prizes available for first place positions in Division A and B. If you would like to participate in the weekend you can contact Kevin Brant at (613) 8495636 or Dustin Brant at (613) 885-3195. In addition, if you would like to donate to the weekend or directly to the Active Lifestyle Fund, check out the Patty’s Boys (Bub’s Memorial) Ball Tournament Facebook page.

Connor Murphy leads the powerful Corvairs offense with 8 goals and 11 assists in 8 games played so far.

Bub’s Memorial Tournament keeps One swing of the bat wins Co-ed kids active in Tyendinaga Tournament for BD Selects

By Erica L. Jamieson

This weekend is the 3rd Annual Patty’s Boys (Bub Maracle’s Memorial) Ball Tournament at the Tyendinaga Sports Complex on York Rd. It is a fundraising ball tournament started by Bub Maracle for the Active Lifestyle Fund. Since Maracle’s passing, his family carries on the tournament in his memory.

According to Maracle’s Aunt, Kat Brant, “Bub had a dream and in his dream his grandfather Patty Maracle came to him. Grampa Pat passed onto the spirit world many years ago.

Grampa said to Bub… Why aren’t you playing ball? Where is all the sports?”

After having the same dream repeatedly, Maracle finally got the message and started the tournament two years ago. There were only a half dozen teams playing

OHSWEKEN – The 12th annual Ohsweken Redmen Co-Ed 3-pitch Tournament was played over the weekend at the Six Nations Fairgrounds Diamonds and what began with 12 teams in three divisions, came down to a Sunday afternoon matchup between the BD Selects and the FNA for all the marbles. The BD Selects defeated the FNA by the score of 2-0 with a two-run homer, driven over the left field fence

by Matty Sault.

Division One boasted the Forty Nine’z, The Hawks, the Rez Runners, and The Team. In Division #2, the BD Selects were grouped with Casper’s Crew, Your Heroes and the Carnagans.

In Division #3 were the FNA, Eagles, Dirt Bags and Red Stix.

Saturday morning, the Preliminary Round of games began with all

12 teams seeing action.

The Super Sunday elimination round began with the Red Stix downing the Carnagans 5-2.

The BD Selects slipped by The Team, 3-2. Casper’s Crew was eliminated by the Eagles, 8-2, and the Rez Runners were sent packing by the Dirtbags, 10-4.

In the second round of play, The Forty Nine’z squeaked out an 8-7 win over the Red Stix, the BC Selects ended the tournament for the Hawks, 2-1, the FNA advanced past the Eagles 3-1, and

Your Heroes doubled up on the Dirtbags, 8-4.

Then there were four. The 2 pm game saw the Forty Nine’z and the BD Selects going head to head in the Quarter Finals, which the Selects won 2-1. At 3 pm, the FNA took down Your Heroes, 6-2 to advance to the final game played right afterwards at 4 pm.

It took a 4th inning homerun with one man on base to win the $500 purse for first place and the trophy, while the FNA took the $150 second place purse.

13-year-old racer makes noise with the big boys

By Jim Windle

SIX NATIONS – By day Alex Hill is a normal and active 13-year-old, Grade 9 student at Assumption College in Brantford. But on the weekends she dons her fireproof suit, pops on a helmet, slides behind the wheel and turns into Alex Hill, racecar driver.

Alex started driving carts when she was nine years old at Ohsweken Speedway’s go cart track.

“My dad, (Miles Hill) had a racecar there,” she recalls. “I was watching on Friday nights and started to like it and wanted to start racing.”

Alex actually began racing competitively at Tillsonburg Raceway, when she was 11, where she won the division title in her first year.

“I was a little nervous in my first race,” she laughs, “and I didn’t go that fast, but once I got used to it I started going faster.”

In the beginning she drove a highly modified go-cart with a single gear. Now, Alex has just started into the next level, the 600 Micro-Sprints. At that level the cars go around 80 or 90 km/h and are equipped with transmissions and the driver must shift through the gears.

“I’m just learning that,” she says.

She recently competed at the Micro-Sprint level in Geneva, New York, at Paradise Speedway.

Hill has already accumulated an impressive record since her first race, at 9 years of age, which she won on August 25th, of 2009.

That same year she won her second first place ribbon on September 27th. She qualified with the fastest time, at 9.7 seconds, in the begin-

ner’s category.

In 2010, Hill won her first race on July 6th, and the following racing season she came in 3rd in the Junior Summer Series, and did it again in 2011.

At the ripe old age of 12, Hill moved up to the Sr. level and became the Senior Spring Series Champion, and came in 3rd in the Senior Summer Series, as well as the Endurance 100 Lap race.

This year, at 13, Alex Hill now has four top three finishes at Paradise Speedway, in Geneva, N.Y. “I’m getting comfortable with shifting,” says Alex. “I’ve stalled out a couple of times, but it’s getting better.”

She was also given honourable mention as a young driver to watch in an article published in Inside Track Motorsport News Magazine.

Since the 600 micro-sprints are hugely popular in the US, most of the racing she will do in that category will require a considerable amount of travel.

“We are very fortunate to have the Ohsweken Speedway here at Six Nations,” says Miles who is managing her career.

“That is only 10 minutes away, rather than the three or four hours it takes to go race in the States.”

Surprisingly enough, Alex is not the only young driver in her Grade 9 class at Assumption.

Brantford’s Dale Westbrook races against her and travels with the Hill racing team, which also includes four competitive sprint cars.

Alex will be turning 14 this December and her dad predicts she will also be turning pro either around that time or early next summer.

At that point, she will be making money for

herself and the team as a professional racecar driver.

To all intents and purposes, 13-year-old Alex Hill, a Grade 9 student at Assumption College in Brantford, is a perfectly normal young teen. But there is something very different about her. On the weekends, Hill is a competitive racecar driver who is attracting a lot of attention in race circles. She is seen here with a picture of herself behind the wheel of the cart she began racing in when she was only nine. (Photo by Jim Windle)

NOTICE OF PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE #2 PRELIMINARY DESIGN AND CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Highway 3 and Haldimand Road 56 Intersection Improvements G.W.P. 3056-10-00 PROJECT OVERVIEW The Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) is undertaking the Preliminary Design and Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Study for intersection improvements at Highway 3 and Haldimand Road 56, in Haldimand County.

Subject to further consultation, the technically preferred plan includes the installation of traffic signals and intersection widening to include left-turn lanes on Highway 3.

PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE #2 The first Public Information Centre (PIC) held on May 23, 2013, provided the public and interest groups the opportunity to review and comment on the study process, existing conditions, preliminary alternatives, and next steps in the study.

A second PIC has been arranged to review and receive comments on the results of the assessment and evaluation process, and to present the preferred plan. The PIC will be held as a drop-in style, open house format with informal presentations.

Representatives of the Project Team will be available to answer questions and receive comments. The PIC will be held as follows: Date: Thursday October 17, 2013 Location: Cayuga Kinsmen Hall 5 McKay Street Cayuga, ON N0A 1E0 Time: 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Presentations: 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.

PROCESS The planning and design of provincial transportation projects must follow the approved process under the Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Transportation Facilities. The MTO has hired McCormick Rankin (MRC) to carry out this study as a Group ‘B’ project, a category relating to major improvements to provincial transportation facilities. Upon completion of the study, a Transportation Environmental Study Report (TESR) will be completed and made available for a 30-day public review period. The TESR public review period will be announced in this newspaper. If the Class EA screening process indicates that the project will not result in any significant adverse environmental effects then this project may be ‘stepped-down’ to a Group ‘C’ project. A notice will be issued and a review period will be provided if this decision is considered.

Artist Profile: Lacey Hill - Oneida Nation, Wolf Clan

By Nahnda Garlow

When a person is operating in their area of gifting, they make it look easy. Such is the case for Lacey Hill. The singer and songwriter’s new album ‘528’ is ready, of officially set to release on October 12. “Music is in my soul - I sing everyday, it doesn’t matter if I am working or playing.” says Lacey Hill. The Oneida Wolf Clan musician was born and raised at Six Nations. This new project has been in the works for two years, and has seen Lacey through some fundamental growth in her personal life.

Early in her musical career she was brought in as a back up singer for The Breeze Band. The group’s album was nominated for an Aboriginal Peoples Choice Award but before a second album could be completed the band broke up. Despite that setback, her musical journey was just beginning.

Her lyrics are intimate and the new album touches on issues such as indigenous identity, responsibility and love.

Her tone is fantastic, and can only be described as the intersection between Pura Fe and Ani Di Franco. She says her inspirations are “...anything

folksy acoustic blues. I tend to focus on the law of attraction therefore I called My first album ‘528’ because it is the frequency of Love. My focus is Love; it’s the only way and we need more of it!”

Lacey is one of the featured artists at the Sanderson Centre this Saturday for the Bush Radio Lives On! Concert, hosted by 100.3 CKRZ-FM. The roster of artists is large and includes Juno Award Winners Derek Miller and Murray Porter. The evening promises to be filled with great local talent including Mark LaForme, Elizabeth Hill,

Stoneridge Bluegrass Band, Cheri Maracle, Faron Johns, Jace Martin and many more.

A CD release party for ‘528’ is being held October 12, at 1920 Chiefswood Road. Tickets are $15 and the evening has a lot of entertainment lined up as well. Jeff Doreen will be performing the Beatles in Mohawk, Lacey will perform a few songs from the album and The Healers will start their set at 9pm.

Homestyle Kitchen teams up with Heavenly Sweets for lunch

by Nahnda Garlow

If you are on Six Nations and looking for a fantastic home cooked meal complete with dessert you must head over to Homestyle Kitchen & Heavenly Sweets.

The cafe, located inside the ‘Ronatahskats’ Community Living Gift Shop, has been the talk of the town lately, specifically on social media.

Community members are raving, posting pictures of their lunch with captions such as “best NDN taco on the Rez”.

These two culinary businesses are led by two strong, independent Haudenosaune women: Holly McComber Bomberry and Jolene General.

Bomberry, owner of Homestyle Kitchen has nearly 20 years of experience cooking. “Everyone told me to open up a kitchen because of how good my food was.”, she says. The cafe is now renowned for their Indian Tacos which are available daily, but don’t be surprised if trying the

Holly McComber Bomberry food once leaves you wanting more. Last week the offerings included Homemade Linguine with Chicken Parmesan and Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings, all for about $10 a plate.

Bomberry, a Kahnawake Mohawk from Buffalo, NY now resides here on Six Nations with her husband Brock. She was thrown into cooking at the age of sixteen to feed her four children; Tommy, Donny, Robert and Lisa. “I had my kids early and I was on my own. I had no choice but to learn how to cook. I’d

Jolene General

watch others and learn from seeing them cook.

My kids love sauce so I learned how to make it but I put my own stuff in there.” Although she is self-taught Bomberry says it is definitely a gift.

“My food just comes to me. I don’t have recipes.”

Now she has teamed up with Six Nations chef Jolene General of Heavenly Sweets to offer dessert with dinner. General is a professionally certified cake decorator and professional chef with a diploma in Chef de Cuisine. General had no interest in cake making

“Locals” enjoying a turkey dinner and an Indian taco

until her brother invited her to a class. “I had just had carpal tunnel surgery. I thought it might strengthen my hand. The surgery did not go well, I had complications afterwards and I was not able to squeeze my hand. So this was a great idea, to do some strengthening by piping the icing. My brother told me the day before class was to start he wasn’t going to do it but I had already paid so I went and loved it!!”

Specializing in fondant covered cakes with intricate Haudenosaune flair and art-

work, Heavenly Sweets cakes are in high demand throughout the community. Last week a longhouse themed cake was raffled off replicating a water drum, turtle rattle and Gustowah.

Her cupcakes, pies and other sweet treats are bought up quickly at the cafe. Earlier this month a batch of Banana Pudding Cakes with White Chocolate whipped topping sold out after only 30 minutes. Diabetic-friendly desserts are also available.

General is a selfmade success. “Every-

thing I’ve done. I’ve done it all on my own.

No funding, no nothing I raised my girls without financial help. My oldest is in college. I think I’ve done a good job being me so far.”

The cafe is open from 10am until 4pm Monday to Friday at 1676 Chiefswood Road inside the Country Living Gift Shop. For more information and daily specials you can keep updated by liking both Homestyle Kitchen and Heavenly Sweets on Facebook or call to order 519-445-1604.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 A blue mood is nothing to worry about, Aries. It is just your body telling you that you may need to slow down a bit. Take heed and you’ll recharge in no time.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, you are beginning a contemplative phase of life right now, but you won’t have to sacrifice your social life to do so. Take a few days off from socializing and then return.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Try to avoid any deep conversations or controversial topics this week, Gemini. Right now it’s best if you focus on more trivial matters and enjoy yourself.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, give yourself more time to figure everything out if you are feeling indecisive about someone. Don’t forge ahead without feeling entirely comfortable with the person.

Answers for September 25, 2013 Edition

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, don’t drop everything you’re working on to address a developing issue at home. Others can handle the situation just as well as you, so keep your focus on preexisting tasks at hand.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, listen to friends and family members when they encourage you to try something new this week.

Trust your instincts, as they seldom turn you in the wrong direction.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 You have no time for gossip this week, Libra. Your plate is already full at work and at home, so avoid getting caught up in anything that compromises your focus.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, though it may feel like others are flying past you while you’re slowly plodding along, eventually things will even out and you’ll end up where you need to be.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Create some plausible plans for the future this week, Sagittarius. Keep a journal to help you keep track of your ideas and make sense of your plans.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, your generosity finds you devoting much of your time tending to the needs of others this week. Enjoy your time helping others and don’t be afraid to accept their gratitude.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Don’t get too hung up if your week is all work and little play. While your schedule might be hectic in the coming days, some relaxation time will arrive this weekend.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, make the most of new opportunities that present themselves this week. The effort you put in will pay off in due time.
