Long awaited water treatment plant opens

SIX NATIONS — After years of empty promises from various levels of government, unforeseen delays, protests, controversy over a protected species of fish, and damage done by a flooding rand i er, the new 41 million Six Nations Water Treatment Plant is now finished and ready to bring enough potable drin ing water to ta e the community into the 1st century.

Although this plant opens up a whole new set of problems, it is the linchpin for any ind of new deelopment and growth for the community.

So why are a group of members of a union representing contract faculty, teaching assistants and graduate assistants at Yor ni ersity, oining the wor at this unity camp Some of the C P 9 members described the mutual benefit in a relationship between unions and land reclamations struggles. arl ardner said, the relationship,

besides giving time and labour, can be one of exposure for each other. e can be the direct lin between a potentially politicized union and these reclamations which wouldn t really get talked about in the union setting. e re building the lin so we can be the line of communication between the two. n mo ing forward, it s building the groundwor of relationships that we will be able to call on, on both ends.

Sareh Sera elahi agreed, “Talking about these issues in union meetings is one thing, but actually coming out when we re in ited, to ma e some real movement on the ground and help set up shelter is much better.

Salmaan han added

his wor is so important in brea ing the slump that the bureaucracy has and that characterizes the union. t s this ind of political wor that actually will help push the union to what it was supposed to be in the first place a organization where people are coming together to acti ely try and fight or wor for change. esturing to wor being done to insulate the hunting lodge, and se eral people gathering and chopping wood, rendan Arnott said he idea of collecti e action here, the way people ha e been wor ing together at the root of that is a decolonizing mindset that could translate into any setting, really. thin what people

EDITORIAL: Effecting Change from Within f you ha e li ed on Six ations long enough, when attending community meetings, you will e entually hear someone oice this sentiment ur people don t ote, it is not our way . a e note. ur ancient path in ol es consensus, and there seems to be consensus that we used to operate by consensus, thus explaining why oting can be a very emotional and controversial issue on Six ations and on all other audenosaunee erritories within the corporation of Canada. hy then, did we mo e from a system of inclusion, wherein all parties were willing to spea with each other, passing issues across the fire to a system in which 49 of the population is ignored if they lose a ote Conentional criticism of the American ay has been, emocracy is not freedom. emocracy is two wol es and a lamb oting on what to eat for lunch. As best we can obser e, it would seem that ta ing into account the interests of the whole population is not compatible with the political and economic system within which we currently li e.

Are we too busy with our nuclear families and independent li es that there is no time left to ha e heart to heart discussions with our clan members or attend Chief s council Chec ing a ballot seems so much easier, we can then hope that someone else will deal with our problems for us. oting, for a certain faction of the audenosaunee, has become a form of dri e through fast food politics. ur concern y oting, our people are losing connection with their roots, becoming politically obese, and are ris ing heart failure.

Canada wants us to opt into their franchise and become Canadians. hey send us birth certificates and social insurance numbers and encourage our participation into their elected systems. lection results show that approximately 1, people cast their ballots each year and are, effecti ely, a tiny minority of the Six ations, when one considers the 11, eligible oters on our territory. Possibly, things will change this year, with arriors such as illiam onture Sr. running for Chief on Six ations or

Shawn rant running for Chief in yendinaga. ne wonders if Canada is cringing in fear or laughing with delight to see these supposed extremists participating in Canada s machinations of suffrage. he prime catalyst and moti ation seems to be the rallying cry to effect change from within. Perhaps we should explore that rationale. f we were Canadians then perhaps creating the audenosaunee Party of Canada PC would ma e logical sense. ut what if we are not Canadians and the lected Council is an imposed system that was de ised to subjugate our people and usurp our birthright here is a fine line between change from within and assimilation to a system hostile to our ery existence as a people.

Indigenous nations collectively condemn the doctrine of disco ery which is supported by papal bulls omanus Pontifex, 14 and nter Caetara, 149 . f we wanted to change that system from within should we then con ert to Catholicism, and urge our Cardinals to elect a Haudenosaunee pope to realign their colonial perspecti es n the end, it doesn t matter anyway, effecting change from within is not only dangerous, it also iolates the terms of the wo ow ampum. n our first and foundational treaty, our peoples agreed we would not steer each others essel. n essence, that is what the lected Council and the A are trying to do as they lobby in the oyal Courts of ttawa.

We need to stop obsessing about what is going on inside foreign go ernments such as the ouse of Commons and worry about the state of our own essel. Shouldn t our main priority be plugging the holes in our canoe before we concern oursel es with the iability of our ally s ship. e can then remind our isitors that from where the sun rises to the where the sun sets, this land is our anonhses. e will then be able to truly li e together with undying relationships of peace, friendship and respect.

Haudenosaunee Grand Council Reiterates Position on Elected Councils

By Chief Sidney Hill

reetings from the Chiefs, Clanmothers, aith eepers, and people of the audenosaunee Six ations Confederacy, People of the Longhouse. he rand Council of Chiefs would li e to ta e this time to remind its citizens of the audenosaunee position on imposed elected and and ribal councils and our proposed remedy to standardize go ernance within the domain of the audenosaunee Confederacy. rom the moment elected councils were imposed in our communities, its primary intent was to abolish the strength and national character of our traditional governments and to assist in the enfranchisement and assimilation of the audenosaunee into the national fabric of both Canada and the nited States. t has since been the position of the audenosaunee that elected councils imposed by either Canada or the nited States, exist outside the Circle ampum. o one person or nation can bring into the Circle another form of go ernance without the full expressed acceptance of the rand Council. he Circle ampum ma es the line between

traditional councils and elected councils clear and distinct the traditional councils are the original go ernments of the audenosaunee communities/ nations handling national affairs, while the elected councils are imposed systems of the ndian Act in Canada and ederal ndian Law in the nited States for the administration of colonial policies in each community. ithin recent years howe er, these elected councils ha e begun commandeering the distinct symbols, philosophies, and national character of the audenosaunee Confederacy thus misrepresenting themsel es to external agencies and limiting the significance of

the audenosaunee as an original Indigenous system of go ernance. hether it is reference to the wo ow ampum, treaties, nation-to-nation relationships, or the subtle implication that these elected councils are somehow synonymous with the Haudenosaunee Confederacy or the raditional Councils this ambiguity has now perpetuated a false impression and confusion both externally and internally that elected councils are actually a part of the audenosaunee Confederacy. ost recently, these elected councils ha e endea oured into the international arena, a domain populated by nations and

states, through a formal entity called the ro uois Caucus, National Congress of American Indians CA , and he nited Southern and astern ribes S . Since 1977, the audenosaunee ha e pioneered the indigenous presence at the nited ations and other international venues, leading towards the eclaration on the ights of ndigenous Peoples a presence the ro uois Caucus, CA , and S endea ours to supplant by perpetuating itself as the legitimate voice of our communities internationally and will act in the interest of their colonial masters Canada and the nited States. he rand Council of Chiefs feels that it can no longer remain ac uiescent on this matter and must insist that the appropriation of the audenosaunee national character cease. urthermore, the rand Council of Chiefs must relay to its neighbours that the ro uois Caucus and its tributary elected councils, along with both the CA and S , do not represent the audenosaunee or its member nations. hile the rand Council of Chiefs feels that it must be firm on this matter, our council reminds elected councils of the audenosaunee remedy to standardize gover-

ada border near Lake Huron where more than multinational industrial facilities operate in a m area, including oil refineries and chemical production facilities. any of the compounds associated with these production processes are polluting the region and are nown to block estrogen levels, which is a crucial hormone in fetal de elopment. he study measured the chemical pollutants directly in the blood, urine, and hair samples of people in the n wehon we community, and concluded that mothers and children in the Aam iwnaang

region are exposed to a number of environmental pollutants.

Aam iwnaang received international attention in after a study reported that boys accounted for only of recent births in the community, and again during the height of the dle o ore mo ement when members of the community bloc aded a C ail line to bring attention to such issues affecting Aam iwnaang. n 9 these facilities collectively released more than 11 million ilograms of pollution into the air. About 6 of these

occurred within m of Aam iwnaang All these chemicals are potent neurotoxins, carcinogens, and endocrine inhibitors. he study suggested that people in the region are ta ing in the chemicals through inhalation and ingestion, by drinking local water consuming local fish, meat, and dairy, and simply breathing.

Among the limitations of the study included an admission that only 1 pollutants could be measured for, and the sample size in the study was small. ut the study concludes that there is no doubt there is a lin between the pollut-

nance in our communities under the aianere o wa reat Law of Peace . n 1991, the audenosaunee Chiefs outlined its prere uisites to begin meaningful dialogue on how we can all li e by the principles and laws of the aianere o wa, within the Longhouse of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. At that time, audenosaunee Chiefs as ed the elected councils to respect and recognize its authority o er eight political areas it historically claims urisdiction o er. hile we understand that at this time Canada and the nited States only recognize the legitimacy of elected councils, we feel this will ne er change so long as our own people wilfully accept this colonial imposition. he rand Council of Chiefs remains steadfast to this necessary show of good faith and is prepared to begin the necessary wor to help decolonize the political structures in each of our communities. his issue is challenging in many ways because of the personal impact this has on indi iduals who ha e a heartfelt connection to the audenosaunee and wish to express it in ways that they thin is helpful. hat is not realized is that by representing the audenosaunee

within colonial constructs it furthers the colonial agenda of Canada and the nited States. he electi e systems are foreign entities that are colonizing the culture by misappropriation. Placing our teachings, laws, and symbols within the colonial construct of the electi e band council system is morphing decolonization into a meaningless apparition of cultural revitalization and transformation. he aianere o wa is based upon inclusivity, peaceful coexistence, and strength through unity bound by laws that ensure a democratic and consensual decision-making process. he rand Council of Chiefs ma es no udgments of the moral character or sincerity of those indi iduals who currently serve as elected councillors, but we do encourage them to bring their gifts, skills, and dedication back into the canoe and ta e shelter beneath the reat ree of Peace. ound together by the good tidings of peace and power, we can be stronger than e er.

ants found in the bodies of mothers and children, and industrial contaminants.

Among the study s concluding recommendations was a call for an independent o ersight panel

that may pro ide ob ecti e and expert guidance concerning environmental public health ris s in the Aam iwnaang region in relation to pollutant exposures.

Rob Ford saga exposing criminal links

By Jordy Cummings

oronto ayor ob ord has had a pretty rough two wee s. irst came the re elation that a long rumoured ideo in which he smo es crac cocaine was in police possession, leading the ayor of Canada’s largest city to admit that he had indeed smo ed crack during a “drunken stupor. ays later, the oronto Star released another ideo, this one showing ord intoxicated and yammering on about hurting or illing someone. hile one can’t underestimate his family s staying power, it loo s li e ord s days may well be numbered. f course the media has had a field day with ord s larger than life meltdown. ut the real story isn t the mayor s personal drug use or addiction problem. ather, the real story is about the

exposure of organized crime networ s in oronto. he real story is about a police chief who presided over an unprecedented remo al of democratic rights during the protest and an intensified criminalization of racialized communities suddenly being called a hero. is recent statements and exposures can not be separated from his ongoing negotiations with city politicians o er the size of the police budget. he real story is Somali youth attempting to get out of the ghetto in housing pro ects in ixon, only to be swept up by militarized police forces in Pro ect ra eller. ust as Native people are criminalized for selling “contraband cigarettes, Somali and other racialized youth in poor areas of Toronto are criminalized for their in ol ement in the drug trade.

he media and the police prefer to concentrate on the sensationalism of a politician ta ing drugs.

Some ha e pointed out that one of the reasons the story got so much play in the first place was due to the common perception of crack-cocaine being a lac drug , as opposed to the powder cocaine that most of those of ord s class would normally ta e. owe er fascinating and humorous the ord persona happens to be, it mustn’t distract us from the real story. ne hint at this story was in the original aw er article that bro e the story, precipitating the co erage in the oronto Star. his a wer article referred to networ s of drug dealers that ser e not merely ob ord s ast appetites, but the elite in oronto in general. Short on the heels of this was an in estiga-

ti e series in the lobe and ail, detailing the ord family s long standing history with the drug trade. umors continue to circulate in City Hall about the legacy of ord s crime family with some sources suggesting that connections to gun-running and the smuggling of heroin, cocaine and hashish run much deeper than what the media has told us so far. t is definitely worth mentioning that when ohammed arah, the community organizer who helped bro er the iewing and potential sale of the ideo to the Star and aw er, appeared on the C C, he mentioned that in the face of the story, all sorts of people “involved in organized crime” started showing up in ixon, alternating offers of lots of cash with threats on the other hand.

Patrick Brazeau and violence against Indigenous women

By Jennifer MtPleasant

OTTAWA Senator Patric razeau, , is being in estigated by the C P o er allegations of breach of trust o er his housing and expense claims, and faces additional legal troubles including assault and sexual assault. e is now ma ing allegations that his political downfall with the Prime inister s ffice started a year ago when he began to uestion the go ernment as to why it hadn t called a national in uiry into missing and murdered aboriginal women, according to C C ews. his comment made by suspended Senator razeau has been unsettling to certain members of the irst ations community, especially those who ha e been fighting for the rights of ndigenous women and who ha e been advocating for a National n uiry for years. ormer President of the ati e omen s Association of Canada from 4 9, e acobs, had this to say, t has been the families directly who ha e had to ma e emotional pleas to the public. Plus, there ha e been many front-line activists

who ha e been assisting these families and trying to bring attention to the issues surrounding missing and murdered Indigenous women for the past years long before I came on the scene with Amnesty nternational Stolen Sisters and AC Sisters in Spirit . And despite the emotionally difficult efforts to bring attention to the issues, the general public is still not taking this seriously. amilies of the missing and of those found murdered deserve answers and ustice. So if it takes a National public in uiry, of which originally as ed for while President of AC, then the public will become educated about how ndigenous women ha e ta en the brunt of the impacts of colonization resulting in the critically high numbers of missing/murdered as well as being the targets of iolence in general. acialized and sexualized iolence should no longer be tolerated in today’s society!”

AC spearheaded Sisters in Spirit, a fi e year research initiati e which documented cases of missing and murdered Indigenous females in Canada. efore their funding

Brazeau being escorted by Police. was cut in 1 , they had documented cases of females who were either murdered or had gone missing. any speculate that these numbers are actually much higher since NWAC, due to time and money limitations, were only able to research the past years. ther organizations and political leaders that ha e been ad ocating for a ational n uiry include nion of ritish Columbia ndian Chiefs, Assembly of irst ations, former Liberal pposition member, Anita e ille, ntario

Premier athleen ynne along with other Pro incial and territorial leaders, and ames Anaya nited Nations Investigator on Indigenous Peoples . n o ember of 1 , razeau wrote a song about missing and murdered ndigenous women and posted a ideo of him performing it on You ube, called ‘Please Come back o e . n ebruary, after he posted his ideo online, razeau found himself spending a night in ail, arrested on allegations of assault and sexual assault against his former partner.

A few months after that, razeau was in more legal trouble after another former girlfriend accused him of assault.

Patric razeau is a member of the itigan ibi irst ation, which is near aniwa i, uebec. ronically, razeau was appointed to Senate in ecember , three months after two young ndigenous women went missing from aniwa i. aisy d ic and Shannon Alexander, best friends, went missing in September . he two young women remain missing

today.

Last ecember, Senator Patric razeau originally told AP that a Senate in uiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women was not the best route to ta e and that they are non-binding and really ust amount to a debate. owe er, shortly after that razeau changed his tune and started speaking publicly in support of a national in uiry. espite razeau s allegations that he may ha e been railroaded out of Senate because of his support for a public in uiry, he merely added fuel to the flame of support for missing and murdered ndigenous women. or years now, numerous ndigenous leaders, politicians, ndigenous as well as non-Indigenous organizations, and International organizations ha e been putting pressure on the federal government to ha e a national public inuiry as to why so many ndigenous women and girls in Canada become ictims of iolence, sexual assault, disappearances and murder. o this day, howe er, we ha e yet to see this in uiry.

“It’s Not What You Say. It’s What You Do”

Almost a year ago federal agents in aded the anie eha community of A wesasne, brea ing into the hree eathers Casino which had been closed for more than three months and charging members of the en s Council from the aianereh owa anon hsesne Longhouse . arah wisere and ane ratiio, duly appointed members of that Council, were arrested and ta en into custody. Sa oietha, a third member of that Council, was charged but refused to be arraigned, opting to remain free and at large so he could, at least covertly, tend to his child who has been battling cancer for several years. arah wisere was denied bail and only this

overtures made for public consumption are ust adding insults to the in uries when measured against reality. his wee mar s the middle of ational Native American Heritage onth. arac bama proclaimed it so. call upon all Americans to commemorate this month with appropriate programs and activities,” the President said. nce again, it appears no one got the memo unless in some twisted reality the prosecution of a Longhouse in federal court now ualifies as an “appropriate program or acti ity. he criminalizing and dehumanizing of Native peoples is so ingrained in the culture of colonialization that the hypocrisy of apologizing for an act while continuing the ery action is not e en newsworthy. n , Canadian Prime inister Stephen Harper offered an official apology for the residential school system of Canada, which stripped ati e children from their families to

place them in the prisons of this national school system. Yet the process of stripping children from Native families continues, only now rather than being placed in a government institution they are adopted out to non ati e families. n 199 , a .S.

departments and unless indictments, subpoenas and tax assessments are considered consultation and collaboration then these orders either ha e no force or had no intent. egardless of which, they ha e no effect. he words, “recognizing tribal sovereignty” are spoken e ery day in ashington, .C. and, suspect, in ttawa.

Parades of senators, congressmen, department heads, appointees, advisors and representatives carve aluable time out of their terribly productive days to offer their patronizing blather while federal agents continue to assault our people and charge them with crimes against the .S. for exercising that so ereignty that is not only more genuine than their own but also predates the existence of the .S. and Canada.

Cayuga Nation in conflict with Oneidas over gaming

By Charles Kader

SENECA FALLS, NY he Cayuga ation of ew Yor has been in the news for economic development for the past few years. n 1 the tribal go ernment launched a Cayuga brand tribally manufactured cigarette. n 1 , the Cayuga ation re-opened a Class II electronic bingo parlor in nion Springs, ew Yor . he tribal go ernment business plan has now recei ed the support of a prominent group of elected councils. he nited South and astern ribes S formed in 196 , is based in ash ille, ennessee. he non profit organization represents 6 federally recognized tribes from aine to exas. S is led by rian Patterson, a member of the neida ndian ation of ew Yor . rian is also a ear Clan epresentati e to the Men’s Council and Clan others. n o ember 1 , S announced its opposition to the ew Yor constitutional change to allow expanded gaming outside of designated exclusi ity zones. hese

exclusi ity zones were publicized by ew Yor State o ernor Cuomo in the run up to the oember election. A referendum to allow the state constitutional change passed oters by a statewide margin. his means that there will be more competition for the gambling dollars that are currently shared through state-tribal agreements now in place.

At a recent S con-

ention a ote was made to support this stated position. According to published accounts, their membership is against expanded gaming as it will undercut the ability of the Cayugas or any other Indian nation to conduct gaming on its lands. he position statement was contro ersial as it opposes the neida ndian Nation tribal gaming exclusi ity agreement with ew Yor State. he

exclusi ity agreement calls for a ten-county ban on gaming competition to the urning Stone Casino, owned by the . Cayuga County is included in the ten county list. his county designation effecti ely excludes the fellow ro uois younger brother Cayuga Nation tribal government from engaging in gaming for economic de elopment. he Cayuga ation has responded with a lawsuit. ederally recognized Cayuga Nation representati e Clint alftown issued a statement on the S ote. ur fellow ndian nations stood with us in re ecting o ernor Cuomo’s plan to ta e away our fundamental federal rights. he exclusi ity zones called for in the go ernor s gaming proposal are an unprecedented attempt to give one Indian nation in this case, the neida rights o er another s lands alftown offered. erall, the S membership includes the Cayuga ation, the neida ndian ation, the Seneca ation, and the St. egis ribal go ernment.

oth the Seneca ation and the St. egis tribal government also signed exclusi ity agreements with o ernor Cuomo, following the agreement announcement. he support for the Cayuga Nation comes during an era of municipal go ernment challenges to its economic self-determination and right to provide employment to tribal members. nity rallies ha e been held supporting the Cayuga ation since , when cigarettes were seized in a raid by ew Yor State law enforcement from the main tribal business, Lakeside rading. Anti nati e rights acti ists in the area ha e also lobbied to strip the limited tribal nation so ereignty away. he nion Springs Class bingo hall has been scrutinized by the illage of nion Springs, ew Yor . he illage sought to re uire building code adherence on the property before it will consider an operating permit for the gaming enterprise. his operating license has ne er been applied for by the Cayuga ation for the

tribal business. A spo esman for the Cayuga ation stated that the tribal go ernment had notified the appropriate federal authorities to the nion Springs property s Class operation. he Cayuga ation maintains that ndian gaming is a federally regulated and not a state or municipal concern. he S resolution might be set aside by some. he nondaga Nation is not listed as a S member, despite the other original i e Nations Confederacy affiliations of the other tribal go ernments. he audenosaunee rand Council recently issued a statement on the limits of the elected tribal go ernments in ha ing anything to do with the issue of land, with regard to audenosaunee lands.

Still, the S resolution shows some glimpse of independent action, among n wehon we elected leadership. ually, tribal land claims settlements tied to the state tribal agreements may soon provide for a wider discussion on this sub ect by the audenosaunee rand Council.

After 1 ualifying games and two semi finals, it all came down to the St. Catharines Saints and the Six ations reasers.

As the wind blew at the west wall of the ILA creating a train like sound, the Saints and the reasers too the floor to decide who got to eep all the marbles. he reasers brought Warren Hill and Don Alton to guard the net while assembling an impressive lineup of players, including ohnny Powless, osh ohnson, an elisle, aodais aracle, hane Smith, aughn arris, uinn Powless, andy Staats, ayne ill, anny yse, enster reen odd S uire r., andy artin, Alex artin, Stu artin, yan il s, osh ohnson, i e c amara, and i e iller. he Saints lineup in-

Comprehensi e land claims make up a significant amount of the total legal expenses, with Canada caught up in some 1 comprehensi e land claims in negotiation or under re iew.

Comprehensi e land claims, or “Modern Treaties”, can often take a decade or more to negotiate. hile the ederal go ernment can throw irtually endless sums of public funds at the legal battles, Indigenous communities at negotiating tables come under intense pressure to conclude negotiations as uic ly as possible gi en the legal expenses that get doc ed from final set-

tlements. uic bargaining with a bad faith negotiator guarantees a bad bargain. ussel iabo, editor of irst ations Strategic ulletin, has written extensi ely on comprehensi e land claims as a “termination plan” for the ndigenous rights enshrined in Section of Canada s constitution. ith Canadian go ernments anxious to prop up its economy through expanded resource extraction, the need to settle land claims and secure property rights to n wehon we lands becomes all the more urgent for them.

THANK YOU

OPEN JAM

June 12, 1969-November 14-2006

We would like to thank our families, friends, and the community members who contributed to our volunteer trip to Peru for all their love, generosity, and support throughout this entire process. We traveled to Cuzco, Peru with the donations we received, and they went to assisting underprivileged children in a boy’s orphanage, a girl’s orphanage and a public school.-all of which were overjoyed with the thoughtfulness of everyone back home! Your willingness to support us in giving back to those less fortunate abroad is insurmountable, and we can’t tell you how much we appreciate the support! We were able to make a substantial difference in the lives of several children and organizations and we attribute a lot of it to all of your encouragement! Thank you everyone for your valuable contributions!

At Chiefswood Fellowship, 506 4th Line. 7 km west of Ohsweken, Six Nations.

Gone are the days we used to share, In our hearts you’re always there;

The gates of memory will never close,

We miss you more than anyone knows; With tender love and deep regret, We who love you never forget.

Loving you always

Mom & Dad, Lil John, Stewart, Shelby & Ceaton

Fun By The Numbers Like puzzles? Then you’ll love sudoku. This mindbending puzzle will have you hooked from the moment you square off, so sharpen your pencil and put your sudoku savvy to the test!

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you can handle difficult situations with ease and your loved ones know it. When such a situation presents itself this week, don’t be afraid to take charge.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, sort out an ongoing issue that has been compromising your focus at work. Once you clear your mind, you can once again focus on your career.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, you may find yourself spending more time with your social circle than your family in the next few days.
