Award winning Hollywood film star Shailene Woodley was arrested during a prayer caravan along the Dakota Access pipeline construction zone. Woodley was one of 27 people arrested during the raid. Riot police stated the people were inciting a riot -- however live stream video taken during her arrest showed the peaceful opposition for over two hours prior to the arrests. Woodley was charged with criminal trespassing and inciting a riot. She was released on bail Tuesday morning. Woodley then offered to pay bail for the remaining water defenders who were arrested with her. Woodley, along with Dem. Senator Bernie Sanders, have been part of the water defence action since August and have brought international attention to the issue in mainstream media sources as a settler-allies to the Lakota Sioux and such others.

‘Classy Mama’s’ at Six Nations Birthing Centre By Jayson Koblun SIX NATIONS – Moms and Tots; a program at the Six Nations Birthing Centre where a mom can relax and spend time with other moms in the community while their children are being looked after, is launching an official name change in November — the group will now be known as “Classy Mama’s”. The group has been around since the early ‘90s and Janet Homer, the cente’s maternity care worker, has been a part of the group for years and thinks it’s time for the group to have a new
name. “The program goes on for six weeks at a time and we have multiple sessions each year,” said Homer. “It tends to have a ‘drop-in’ kind of atmosphere and it’s really just an opportunity for moms to get together and talk, relax, cook a meal together, do a craft and just have a few moments away from the young ones.” “We asked before if the majority of the moms wanted us to plan activities that included their children or not and most said no, they really appreciated that they could drop off their kids with the child care workers
on site and just enjoy the day. Last week the moms came to the centre and worked together to make a nice meal for everyone to enjoy. One mom made a salad; another peeled apples, one made mashed potatoes and everyone else contributed to the meal in some way. Homer said that she has different speakers lined up to come in and show the moms cooking tips, health and dental tips and to do group crafts together. “It’s open to the community, and free,” said Homer. “It’s more of a social gathering for moms
to come to. Lots of laughter and advice given between moms.” The program runs quarterly and has limited attendance; the next session will begin in early November and the group meets from 9:30 a.m. until noon at the birthing centre. The Six Nations Birthing Centre is in the community to help indigenous families (women and their families) give birth to healthy babies and to promote the seriousness, sacredness and the continued responsibility of giving birth.
Melanie Burning and Judy McNaughton were looking after some of the children at last week's session. Nine-month-old Elaina VanEvery, seven-month-old Rowan Johnson and five-month-old Hayson Hill were all smiles with the workers while their moms were upstairs cooking. PHOTO BY JAYSON KOBLUN

Lieutenant Governor to open Brant- Caterer charged in food Small plane ford lecture series on residential crash poisoning outbreak schools and reconciliation By Nahnda Garlow
By Nahnda Garlow
By TRT staff BRANTFORD – The Honourable Elizabeth Dowdeswell, Lieutenant Governor of Ontario, will visit Brantford on Wednesday, Oct. 19 for the launch of a free public lecture series about First Nations residential schools and the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The Lieutenant Governor will speak at 7 p.m. in Room RCE 004 in the Research and Academic Centre of Laurier Brantford at 150 Dalhousie St. She’ll be followed by Nathan Tidridge, a Waterdown teacher and noted expert on the Crown in Canada. He’ll talk about how treaties between the Crown and First Nations can become a basis for a renewed relationship. On Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m., the second lecture will feature the Honourable Bob Rae, former Ontario premier and interim federal Liberal Party leader. He currently works with First Nations as an advisor, negotiator and legal counsel. His lecture is entitled Healing Hearts and Treaties. It will be in the same location. The lecture series runs until next spring. The Friends and Neighbours Group, a grassroots committee of area residents supporting the Woodland Cultural Centre’s Save the Evidence Campaign, is sponsoring the lecture series. The campaign is raising money for repairs and renovations of the former Mohawk Institute Residential School building at 184 Mohawk Street, one of the last remaining residential school buildings in

SUBMITTED PHOTO the country. The speakers, dates and times for lectures in early 2017 will be announced when details are confirmed. About 150,000 First Nations children were removed from their homes in the 19th and 20th centuries and sent to the mainly church-run schools, sometimes hundreds of miles from home. The children were forced to abandon their own languages and culture in order to be assimilated into Canadian society. They lived in substandard conditions and endured physical, emotional and sexual abuse. When they ultimately returned home — sometimes after a decade or longer — they were outsiders in their own communities. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission, led by Justice Murray Sinclair, delivered a report in 2015 that contained 94 “calls to action” on ways that all people — indigenous and non-indigenous — can work to heal the wounds left by the residential school system.
“A lot of people don’t know what happened right on our doorstep,” said Dave Neumann, chair of Friends and Neighbours. “They need to know. This lecture series will help to educate people in our community.” “We need to have a serious, sustained dialog about reconciliation,” he added. “Reconciliation will be difficult and complicated but we have to start coming together.” Rob Knechtel, vicechair of Friends and Neighbours, is co-ordinating the lecture series. The Mohawk Institute was the country’s first residential school and operated from 1828 to 1970. After it closed, it reopened in 1972 as the Woodland Cultural Centre. Recently, major roof leaks have caused significant and costly damage to the residential school building. So far, the Save The Evidence Campaign has received financial support from the Six Nations Elected Council, the City of Brantford and the Province of Ontario as well as other individuals and organizations.

Six Nations fire prevention gets lit By Jayson Koblun SIX NATIONS – Three out of five home fires happen from fires in homes with no smoke alarms — or in homes without working smoke alarms. October 9 to 15 is Fire Prevention Week on Six Nations and the fire and emergency services department wants to remind the community how important fire safety and prevention is. Smoke alarms and detectors are designed to alert a household of a fire and smoke, but like almost all things electronic — they don’t last forever and should be replaced every 10 years, or, whenever the expiry date says to on the back of the device. Smoke alarms should be tested regularly and also be installed on every storey of the home and outside all sleeping areas. It’s a good idea to also place an alarm in every bedroom. “This year our fire service family will be visiting each and every school within the Six Nations Community visiting as many classes as we possibly can,” reads a post by Fire Chief
Matthew Millers on Facebook. “We will also be out in the community sharing this year’s national fire safety message ‘Don't Wait, Check the date of your smoke alarms’." Community members can take an active role in fire safety and prevention this year by joining the fire and service team in its selfie challenge. “Join in with us by taking part in the ‘Don't Wait Check the date Selfie Challenge" take a selfie of you and your family checking the date of your smoke alarms. Post it in our Six Nations Fire and Emergency Service Facebook group or tag me [Matthew Miller] and you could win one of multiple fire prevention safety prize packs,” Miller wrote. In addition to testing and replacing smoke alarms, it’s also really important for families to develop a Home Escape Plan. “It is vital that you know what to do when the smoke alarms sound in an emergency,” reads a statement released by Fire and Emergency Services. “Sit down and discuss how each person will get out in a fire.” Once you are out of the house,
stay out, and don’t go back in for any personal belongings. Call 9-1-1 from outside; never re-enter a burning building. Six Nations Fire and Emergency Services says that individuals need to be outside of their homes by the time they arrive. “Despite their best efforts, the fire department may not arrive quickly enough to save you from a fire. You need to be outside when the firefighters arrive,” reads the statement. After a week of visiting schools and informing community members, students and children on fire safety and prevention, the fire department will be having an open house and barbecue at the new headquarters in Ohsweken. “We will also be having a Chili Cookoff that is open to the community,” writes Miller. “Top chili chef will win smoke alarms for their homes.” For info on the chili cook off contact Deputy Fire Chief Vince Martin at (519) 732-1835 or vincemartin@sixnations.ca.

Simple fire prevention measures to maximize safety Submitted article Did you know that, according to the National Fire Protection Association, most people have a false sense of security regarding house fires, believing that they would have approximately six minutes to evacuate their home in the event of a fire? In reality, smoke and fire spread rapidly and can overcome occupants in less than three minutes. When a fire occurs, there’s no question that time is critical. The good news is there are several important steps you can take to maximize your escape time. With the following measures in place, you’ll create critical protection for what matters most — your home and family. 1. Install smoke alarms. You should have one in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area, and on every level of the home, including the basement. For the best protection, make sure all smoke alarms are interconnected. When one sounds, they all sound. 2. Inspect and clean smoke alarms monthly. Replace batteries in spring and fall. To clean the alarm, open the cover and gently vacuum the interior. 3. Prepare and practise a fire escape plan. Draw a floor plan of your home, marking two ways out of every room — especially sleeping areas. Discuss the escape routes with every member of your household, and agree on a meeting place outside your home in case of emergency. Practise your escape plan at least twice a year. 4. Select building materials that provide passive fire protection. Passive fire protection is part of the core of the building and helps control fire by limiting its spread. One very effective form of passive fire protection is the installation of insulation. When adding or upgrading insulation, look for products made from naturally fire-resistant, inorganic materials.

It feels good to be known Thanksgiving: food for thought
Editorial by Jonathan Garlow Irene Martinez is only 13 years old, but this Toronto middle school student reads three powerful announcements each morning before playing the Canadian national anthem. Her speech goes like this: "In keeping with Indigenous protocol, I would like to acknowledge this school is situated upon traditional territories,” she started out day-byday. “The territories include the Wendat, Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nations, and the Métis Nation. The treaty was signed for the particular parcel of land that is collectively referred to as The First Purchase and applies to lands west of Brown's Line to Burlington Bay and north to Eglinton Avenue.” “I also recognize the enduring presence of Aboriginal Peoples on this land." She is not alone. These sobering statements are now read aloud at all 588 schools across the Toronto District School Board and we can credit indigenous elder Duke Redbird for challenging the status quo getting the proper acknowledgement added into the Toronto educational system. This is part of the unfolding story of reconciliation in Canada. After six years of hearings and testimony, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission put forward 94 recommendations to address the "cultural genocide" of more than 500 nations of indigenous peoples through Canada's residential school system. That was in 2015. PDF Copies of the report are available online. Of special interest is the section that states: "In order to redress the legacy of residential schools and advance the process of Canadian reconciliation, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission makes the following calls to action. (62-i) We call upon the federal, provincial, and territorial governments, in consultation and collaboration with Survivors, Aboriginal peoples, and educators, to: Make age-appropriate curriculum on residential schools, Treaties, and Ab-
original peoples’ historical and contemporary contributions to Canada a mandatory education requirement for Kindergarten to Grade Twelve students and (63-i) developing and implementing Kindergarten to Grade Twelve curriculum and learning resources on Aboriginal peoples in Canadian history, and the history and legacy of residential schools.” That’s a pretty gnarly paragraph of words but it’s basically saying that Canadians need to teach their kids about how badly John. A. MacDonald, Duncan Campbell Scott, Ryerson and their ilk messed up a really important relationship. The problem is we’ve had similar types of studies done before and nothing much was accomplished. In January, the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal found the federal government guilty of discrimination against First Nations children in the way it delivers child welfare services on reserves. It was decided that Ottawa would budget a court ordered increase for the children — but just last week it was found out that the Liberal government did not budget the increase for child welfare. Also, the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples (RCAP) issued its final 4,000-page report in November 1996. It was perhaps overly ambitious with 440 recommendations calling for radical changes in the relationship between “Aboriginal” (sic) and non-Aboriginal people and governments in Canada. The RCAP called for a new Royal Proclamation, recognition of an “Aboriginal” order of government, and sweeping changes to address social, education, health and housing needs — is a new Royal Proclamation even possible? In the forward notes, the commissioners at that time stated: “there cannot be peace or harmony unless there is justice.” Now Canadian people have been wondering what justice might actually look like. No one wants to go back to a European country they haven’t even visited. After it’s all said and done, justice might look like another little girl reading a nugget of indigenous truth to your children every morning. It’s nice to be remembered.

By Chezney Martin “Give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.”
Majority of Canadians and Americans alike are taught the story of Thanksgiving early on in kindergarten; the happy pilgrims feasted alongside the “friendly indians.” The American version suggests that this feast was to celebrate the Patuxet native named Squanto and the Wampanaog Nation, who taught the pilgrims how to grow corn and catch fish efficiently so they could survive the winter after fleeing Europe in fear of religious persecution. At the end of their first year under a treaty negotiated by Squanto, the pilgrims held a great feast to honour the treaty with the Wampanaog Nation. And for the most part, that's where the history lesson ends; two happy peoples eating to celebrate teamwork and friendship. The problem with this story is that although it begins in the 1600s, there's much more to it. Historians suggest that it wasn't mutual friendship that brought the two communities of pilgrims and natives together, but need and necessity. Meaning that the two were wary allies against other nations and tribes to protect themselves. However, there are manifestations of the different visions of what took place nearly four hundred years ago.
The majority of Canadians and Americans were taught in elementary school that the Thanksgiving Holiday is based on a happy time of sharing and fellowship - digging deeper, it is now known that that was not the case. FILE PHOTO Thanksgiving in Plymouth, Massachusetts will provide you two public commemorations; the official parade of pilgrims to Plymouth Rock, and the indigenous people and supporters fasting on top of Cole's Hill in remembrance of the destruction of culture and people. So, what happened to make indigenous people call Thanksgiving “a national day of mourning,” in America? Several years prior to the pilgrims’ arrival, British slaving crews introduced smallpox to the population of Massachusetts indigenous by infected cattle. This killed more than 90 per cent of the total population, but the decimated Wampanaog still helped the pilgrims survive their first harrowing winter. This resulted in the “starving” pilgrims allegedly stealing corn from the Wampanaog, and then celebrating their own ample harvest with a three-day feast. Some historians now suggest that the

Wampanaog came to the feast after hearing a commotion of gunfire in the Pilgrim village; but it is uncertain whether or not the Wampanaog were actually invited. Around the same time, the Pequot Tribe celebrated its own Thanksgiving for the green corn. In the pre-dawn hours settlers — puritans, not pilgrims — descended upon the Pequot and destroyed their village with fire and guns; killing more than 700 men, women and children. The massacre of the Pequot Tribe “in the name of God” is dubbed the real origin of Thanksgiving in the U.S.. Thereafter, “massacres of the indians” were terribly followed by days of thanksgiving. However, the Canadian version suggests that Thanksgiving is simply a festival of plentiful harvest that was celebrated by English Explorer Martin Frobisher to celebrate his safe arrival in what is now Canada, 43 years before the pilgrims in Plymouth.

By TRT Staff NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE — The shared efforts of the British, Six Nations and other First Nations allies in the great War of 1812 have been long criticized as a missing part of history. A new memorial installation along Niagara-On-The-Lake now marks those contributions and seeks to bring the truth about First Nations part in winning that war. The “Landscape of Nations: The Six Nations and Native Allies Commemorative Memorial” was unveiled on the historic battlefield in Queenston Heights Park last Sunday. “Knowledge of the courage, sacrifice, and contribution by Native peoples in the War of 1812 will forever change your understanding of Canada’s history,” said Working Group Cochair Tim Johnson. As a former Smithsonian Institution executive who oversaw critically acclaimed exhibitions and launched a national education initiative at the National Museum of the American Indian, Johnson said he “can attest to the artistic merit and educational imperative of the Landscape of Nations memorial.” The essential educational understandings of the
Santee Smith (above) and many other contributors underlined the importance of the Landscape of Nations memorial site. SUBMITTED PHOTOS memorial evoke themes of courage, remembrance, mutual respect and affirmation, and reconciliation. Included within the discourse of ideas stimulated by the memorial is a contextual awareness of the meaning of the covenant of friendship between First Nations and the Crown. The memorial also recognizes the historic ceremony of peace and reconciliation held in Niagara on August 31 and September 1, 1815 that restored peace among the Native nations who fought on opposing sides. Undertaken eight years ago by the Working Group,
a volunteer sub-committee of the Niagara-on-the-Lake War of 1812 Bicentennial Committee, the memorial will become an important heritage destination asset for The Niagara Parks Commission (NPC) and is intended to serve as an educational beacon illuminating the critically important contributions Native peoples made to Canada during its formative years. The unique memorial site, identified and offered by The Niagara Parks Commission, is embraced by the earthworks of old Fort Riall, resting under a broad canopy of tall mature trees. Following a juried com-
petition of anonymous submissions assessed by experts in history, arts, and culture, the final winning design emerged from a collaboration by landscape architect Tom Ridout of Fleisher Ridout Partnership Inc. and Raymond Skye, a renowned Six Nations artist. A successful national fund-raising campaign followed, which received donations from all levels of government (federal, provincial, municipal), corporations, foundations, private businesses, and numerous individual citizens raising the budgeted $1.4 million needed for the proj-
ect. “After the destruction of the first monument for Isaac Brock in 1840, the Native allies spearheaded a fund-raising drive to erect the present monument (1853), contributing far more per person than any other segment of the population of Upper Canada,” said Richard Merritt, cochair of the Working Group. The dedication ceremony included the unveiling
of bronze sculptures of Native leaders John Norton and John Brant and of eight bronze medallions featured on the Queenston limestone walls forming the centre memory circle; the poignant “Bundling of Seven Arrows” ceremony; and the metaphorical burial of the weapons of war by school children under a majestic white pine, the Tree of Peace.

Ancient letter speaks of mythical 'Welsh Indians' By Jim Windle Ed. note: It is widely acknowledged that "Indian" is a generally offensive term, but is used here due to historical contraints and implied American context. In the opening prologue of the first installment of the mega movie trilogy, The Lord of the Rings entitled: The Fellowship of the Rings, there is a warning to all who accept conventional wisdom without question and without a sober second thought. “History became legend,” it says, ”legend became myth, and some things that should not have been forgotten...were lost.” Such seems to be the case in the historical search for a tribe of Natives encountered by early explorers and trappers as they penetrated the rapidly opening American west. One of the first mentions of this odd looking and strange sounding tribe in the west of the United States, comes from Amer-

America in 1170. Although highly skeptical, Thomas Jefferson actually believed it enough to send a letter to explorers Lewis and Clarke telling them to keep an eye out for the "Welsh Indians." (Reproduced here as written in old English)
“He has obtained from the Commandant passports in Spanish french & English to go on his journey … and whether he meets with the Welsh Madogians or not — he will receive on his return two or 3000 dollars from the Spanish government — I have heard many additional tales concerning what they call the Welsh Indians but as yet I have my doubts about them. I have conversed with the acting partner in the Missouri Co. He has been among more Indians than any other white man on this continent. He knows nothing of the Welsh language but by my conversing in Welsh — he could not recognize the words nor the
idiom altogether among the Indians North of the Missouri — he thinks the Padoucas are out of the question. However I deliver'd him a Welsh Vocabulary & begg'd of him to give all the assistance he could to John Evans should he meet him.

ered America 300 years before Columbus. Detractors would say the story started with the Tudors in Whales, who first made use of the legend of and his alleged voyage to America to help undermine Spain’s claims to North America. But then there is a Shawnee "wisdom-keeper" named Ken Lonewolf, now in his 70s, if still with us, from the Pittsburgh area. He is on historical record making several direct links to the Welsh Indians. "Our last Shawnee leader was named Chief White Madoc; this name must have been passed down for many generations," says Lonewolf. "This was our chief who sold our village to white settlers in the late 1790s. This is not a figment of my imagination, but a matter of county court record dating to the late 1790's or early 1800s." To date there has been insufficient evidence found to clear through the mist of myth, the legacy of legend and get to the facts of history of the “Welsh Indians.”

I have seen deer and buffalo skins with various other articles dressed by them in a most capital manner. A frenchman has lately been up the Missouri for fifteen hundred miles and by what he could judge of the stream & country, that river must be about 2,400 miles in length.

New Tim Horton’s creates 62 jobs in Ohsweken By Jim Windle
OHSWEKEN – The official opening of Ohsweken’s full Tim Horton’s sit in and drive through restaurant probably out drew the media present at the opening of the very first Tim Horton’s ever, back in 1964, in Hamilton. This opening represents the first full service, 100 per cent native owned and operated Timmy’s on a reserve in Canada. There are other Horton’s Drive Thru’s on other reserves, some are partnered between native and non-native owners, but this one is special. Six Nations’ Landon Miller, along with Ted, Brandon and Jordan Nolan, of NHL fame, have been through a lot in getting this franchise located at Six Nations. In the past, Horton’s always demanded ownership of the real estate any of its franchises were built on. The other big issue was tax. There is no tax on a reserve. The grand opening celebrates the power of cooperation according to Liberal Speaker of the House and Brant MPP, Dave Levac.

While Member of Parliament Hamilton East - Stoney Creek, Bob Bratina and Haudenosaunee Confederacy Secretary Leroy "Jock" Hill share a few words of congratulations. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE “This is a great example of what can be done while still respecting the Two Row Wampum,” said Levac. During that seven-year journey, Tim Hortons was sold to Burger King and with that the proponents, Miller and the Nolans, had a second turn at bat. This time they hit a home run, with the cooperation of Horton’s new ownership, and more than a little help from Levac. The cooperation also
had to be met by the Ontario government to honour Six Nations rights and not charge tax on their products sold on reserve. After so many years of push-pull both hurdles were cleared very quickly, and an agreement was reached. “In an ‘all-or-nothing’ world, no one really wins,” said Levac. “Something like this has never been done before. This is a watershed moment, a big step towards economic indepen-
dence and self-reliance and should stand as a model for the future.” Confederacy Secretary Jock Hill, opened the gala with the Ganyohonyohk (Thanksgiving address) prayer before he congratulated Miller, the Nolans and Tim Horton’s Ltd., for respecting Six Nations tax immunity. He pointed to the appreciation he has for Hortons and Ontario in respecting their treaty obligations while hammering
out a deal that could open a whole new the door to commerce and on-reserve jobs. Miller proudly announced that his Six Nations Horton’s is providing jobs for 62 Six Nations residents, 25 of them high school age youth just entering the work force for the first time. Elected Chief Ava Hill welcomed the new fixture on Chiefswood Road. “This is a great ecomonic boost to this community and the timing couldn’t be better. The Ontario First Nations Economic Forum starts tomorrow to look at ways of creating wealth for community sustainability,” she said. “Landon and Ted are booked as speakers to talk about this franchise and how we can employ our own people.” Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation, David Zimmer, was also on hand to pledge support for this kind of venture. Speaking of the Two Row Wampum explained by Jock Hill, Zimmer reflected on the duties and obligations of the Crown.
“This is an example to remind us of the duty of the Crown in respecting our treaties,” he said. Ted Nolan, in his address, thanked Miller for his tenacity. “There were times when we wondered if this day would ever come,” he said. “But I’m glad we stuck it out.” Miller agreed. Nolan also gave a shout out to his hockey hero growing up in Garden River. “We need trail blazers. For me it was Stan Jonathan,” he said as said he pointed Jonathan out in the crowd. “This opening is and example of what we can do,” he said. “This is a great opportunity for Six Nations. We opened a lot of roadblocks to our economic growth. Miller also thanked Two Rivers for their support and help throughout the difficult process. With that, the ribbon and the cake were cut, and history was made.

Elder pushes Band Council for answers on Hydro One deal By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS — Six Nations resident Ron Hill wants to know more about the hydro one partnership proposed by the Elected Band Council and how it will effect him. He says that despite making a presentation to council where he shared his and others’ concerns, he has heard nothing from chief or council since. Information given to the Elected Council includes evidence of hidden cost and delivery fees to
Six Nations customers. He complains that while the average fair market value for electricity was 2.36 cents per kilowatt hour in 2015, but will change with Six Nations / Hydro One deal. He also complains about delivery charges, regulatory charges, Global adjustment fees, hidden within the kWh price of 7.9 cents per kWt. He claims that with the push to Solar and Wind energy, the cost of electricity will actually go up. He and others wonder
why a better deal for Six Nations residents was not struck. They would like to see a preferred electricity rate. “A preferred rate will see significant monthly, annual and lifetime cost savings to every Six Nations member that is a Hydro One customer,” says Hill by way of a written statement. A survey of the hydro bills at four different homes reveals, according to Hill, reveals that the less hydro-electricity one uses, the more they pay per kWt.
Six Nations elder, Ron Hill, seen here with an original copy of the Haldimand Deed, believes the Elected Council's proposed deal to by shares of Hydro One, is a poor one. He and others believe a deal that would give relief to Six Nations residents and businesses on their Hydro-electric bills would have been a better way to go. He fears the money generated in this deal will be folded into the Council coffers and the people will not feel the benefit of it. He argues that any conservation measures one may implement rather than be rewarded, are being penalized by this way of billing. He presented to Council a list of reasons why he feels a better deal could and should have been drawn up that would benefit every Six Nations home rather than a deal that would pour funds into some central fund individuals never directly benefit from. These include references to the Nanfan Treaty, the Haldimand Deed and other historical treaties. Since the majority of electricity is still generated by water, thus the term hydro-electric, there are also matters regarding the use of water generated turbines that Hill believes should be taken into consideration as a resource in which First Nations are not compensated for since 1893. He argues that, today, the Niagara River generates two million kWt’s of electricity on the Canadian side only with 2.4 million kWt’s on the American side of the falls. The rising cost of electricity to the consumer, generated with the use of water, a First Nations re-
source, and delivered by countless towers erected on First Nations territories is clear. Hill wants Chief and Council to get on the right side of this deal and demand relief to Six Nations residents and businesses for resource use if nothing else. Regarding the delivery charges Six Nations customers are still being billed for, Hill is appalled that this is being allowed under the ordinances of the Indian Act as well as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People regarding resource use. The presentation was detailed, logical and well researched when it was introduced to the Elected Council some four weeks ago. Hill and some others of like mind will addressBand Council again soon, seeking answers to their questions and explanations of why, they believe, Council settled for a lump of cash rather than direct relief for Six Nations people and businesses in perpetuity. He also wants to know why he had heard nothing from Council since his first presentation.

By Red Warrior Camp via Censored News At 6:30 a.m. a Sunrise Prayer Ceremony honouring the prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor uniting was attended by the people at the Standing Rock Encampment. The purpose of this prayer circle was to strengthen the will and hearts of all Native Peoples gathered at this frontline to pray for Mni Wiconi Sacred Water. A peoples united will never be defeated, we will kill this Black Snake! After the ceremony the Camp mobilized of well over 100 vehicles departed from the encampment to Dakota Access pipeline worksite 118. Upon arrival, the People began a powerful ceremony. The Morton County Sheriff’s departments insist that today action was not a protest but a riot. To a point we agree. This was not a protest. This was a ceremony in defence of Sacred Water. The gathering of Nations from coast to coast to coast, the North to the South remains calm and orderly until dozens of Riot Police arrived intending to harm and arrest all present. The Riot Police were armed and dangerous, yet we managed to diffuse them even though they were aggressively asserting they would and did arrest anyone and everyone who held the line, no one was rioting in any manner and everyone remained to hold them off for 4 hours. The 27 ar-
rested Water Protectors are being charged with engaging in a riot, criminal trespass, and reckless endangerment, the footage and live streams from the work sit today show the truth and reality of what happened. The Governor of North Dakota is a shareholder in DAPL. He is heavily invested in getting this pipeline built. The CEO, The Shareholders, and Investors in Dakota Access Pipeline need to know stocks are plummeting and your monetary investment will be money lost. POTUS Barak Obama has done nothing to uphold or honour the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868. Instead jurisdiction of Treaty Lands is handed over to the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, this is in direct violation of International Law. We the people at Oceti Sakowin are holding our line firm in our conviction that we not allow the pipeline to poison water that not only we rely on but 17 million people downstream rely on as well. The State is using excessive force normally used in war overseas on unarmed Indigenous People to protect DAPL. This is tantamount to an act of war on the Indigenous People comparable to Palestine, the Government is waging on Native People and we call on all who can come here and stand at Red Warrior Cam at Oceti Sakowin, Standing Rock North Dakota.

Teenager's status card not seen as form of I.D. for driver's licence test By Jayson Koblun OHSWEKEN – Imagine turning 16 years old, getting excited about taking your G1 Driver’s Licence test to finally experience a bit of freedom, only to be turned down by the clerk for having the wrong form of identification. This is what happened to 16-year-old Brandon Styres Maker last week at a Driver’s Examination Cen-
tre in Brantford, Ont. Only he was turned away from taking the test because the clerk would not accept his status card or official long form birth certificate as proof of identification. Brandon came to Elected Council on Oct. 11 with his aunt Stephanie Styres to bring it council’s attention and ask for a complaint to be issued from the elected chief. “The clerk looked at the
status card and questioned whether Brandon signed the card himself,” said Styres. “She said we do not take this card, we only take identification issued from Ottawa with a hologram.” The clerk then asked if Brandon had his passport on him and he said no, he was expecting his status card to be sufficient. Styres then stepped in and told the clerk that Brandon’s status card is
a Canadian certificate of Indian Status and that it is listed under the “acceptable forms of identification” sign posted by the counter. Brandon then presented his birth certificate, which is also an official government issued form of I.D. and the clerk would still not accept it and let Brandon take the test because the clerk said it had a spelling error on the certificate.

Stephanie Styres (right) and her 16-year-old nephew Brandon Styres Maker (left) came to Elected Council's general meeting on Oct. 11 to issue a complaint against a Driver's Examination Centre in Brantford for refusing service to Brandon and not accepting his status card as a form on identification. PHOTO BY JAYSON KOBLUN “Why is the government handing out pieces of identification that are not accepted,” Styres said at the meeting. Styres said that the clerk went to the supervisor and the supervisor said the I.D.s were indeed unacceptable. “I pulled out other identification but nothing was good enough,” she said. Styres asked for the customer service department’s phone number so she could launch an official complaint and when she spoke to the service representative later they said that the documents they provided should have been accepted. “I don’t get it,” said Styres. After listening to Styres and Brandon, Elected Council decided that they would look into the incident further and get Elected Chief Ava Hill involved
as she was out of town during the meeting. Styres has put together a file comprised of information regarding the incident and photos of the centre and its employees who were on staff that afternoon that were a part of the incident. “I’m OK with it [elected council’s decision],” said Styres. “I’m sending my PowerPoint presentation to MTO and the third party outsource contract holder that is responsible for the Driver Test Centre. I’m sending it everywhere. “I think the more people that are aware of incidents like this — change will happen. I think we need to stand up for our First Nation youth at all cost,” she said. Styres said that she is likely going to take Brandon to a centre in Simcoe to take his driver’s test.

The purpose of the ceremony, according to the statement, was to strengthen the will and heart of those gathered at the front lines. Morton County Sheriff’s department insisted the action was a riot.

Creepy clowns spotted in Waterloo By TRT Staff One of the most common and widespread fears is scientifically dubbed coulrophobia, or the “abnormal” fear of clowns. But this fear isn't all too abnormal, as a study performed in 2008 showed that the fear of clowns in children is pretty much universal. After becoming a rampant scare throughout North America; the creepy clowns have reportedly reached Canada, and the fear has definitely gone from children to adults. Police in the Waterloo area increased patrols as sightings of clowns in Southern Ontario region hit one dozen. Of these calls involved three clowns, with one allegedly holding a large stick and chasing a woman near the University of Waterloo Campus. This is just the tip of what has become a string of creepy clown reports. The alleged reports of sightings have spanned from Halifax, Edmonton and as close as Toronto
been made and schools have been put on lock down. Many mysteries surround the clown craze, but incidents have been narrowed down to two forms; threats on social media directed at schools, or sightings of clowns with some incidences turning violent. But, with the onslaught of clowns comes the “anti-clown mob,” who have failed to find any clowns. As is the case in many situations where the authorities are involved; the clowns aren't found. This has also led to arrests of those calling the police to
warn them of clowns when there aren't any. This includes a 14 year-old girl in New Jersey that had cried wolf to being chased by a knife-wielding clown who was charged with “clown hoaxing.” However, it is unclear as to whether or not this craze is related to the planned 2017 remake of Stephen King's “It,” over-excited Hallowe'en goers, or copycat pranksters. Could this just be an iconic ad campaign like the Old Spice “Smell Like a Man, Man,” gone wrong for Hallowe'en?

Clown sightings such as this are becoming commonplace in the USA and have even begun in Canadian cities as well. Most arrested clowns seem to be males in their teens and early twenties. without much reason. Numerous arrests have been made relating to the creepy clowns with majority of offenders being found to be teens and adults in their early twenties. Although Canada is quite new to this creepy clown craze, America has become a hot spot for
sightings and arrests. The craze seems to have originated in Greenville, S.C., where clowns allegedly attempted to lure children into the woods with money in late August. Many of the nationwide sightings involved clowns stalking pedestrians, threatening citizens with weapons and
scaring children. Many of the teen “clowns” have been arrested for terroristic threats via social media, much like the girl who made a Facebook account dubbed “Kroaky Klown” and posted threats online. Since, reports of clowns have surfaced nationwide and as a result arrests have

Tom Jackson to receive 2016 Award of Excellence
By TRT staff TORONTO – imagineNATIVE Film and Media Arts Festival has announced that Tom Jackson, Cree actor, musician and activist will receive the 2016 August Schellenberg Award of Excellence. The August Schellenberg Award of Excellence (Augie) is an annual prize that recognizes significant professional and personal achievement by an indigenous actor, of any gender, from Turtle Island. The Augie was first bestowed in 2015 to Tantoo Cardinal, and is supported by ACTRA National, the ACTRA Performers’ Rights Society, and through individual donations. Jackson will receive his award at the imagineNATIVE Film and Media Arts Festival’s Awards Gala on Saturday, October 22 at the TIFF Bell Lightbox in downtown Toronto. Jackson has worked as an actor, musician, producer and activist for more than 40 years. Rec-
ognized for roles on North of 60, Star Trek, Law & Order, and many others, he is ranked among the famous 50 personalities of the first 50 years of television in Canada. Jackson has also recorded 16 albums; his latest release Ballads Not Bullets in support of the Canadian Red Cross. “I heard of Augie long before I met him or saw him perform,” Jackson says. “From his role of Jamie Paul in The Ecstasy of
Rita Joe, to one of the finest multi-faceted performances by any actor ever in Latitude 55, Augie was someone I wished I were. When I was blessed to get to know and work with my friend, I found out the secret to Augie was that he was just Augie. There is a secret to success. Be honest, work hard, be committed, have integrity, show compassion and never give up.” The August Schellenberg Award of Excellence was launched in partnership with Joan Karasevich Schellenberg to honour her late husband, actor August (Augie) Schellenberg, and the spirit of his work. This annual award is presented to gifted indigenous actors based on the longevity and impact of their careers, as well as their professionalism and involvement in mentorship and community work. “We are delighted to honour Tom Jackson as the recipient of this year’s Augie,” says Ariel Smith, imagineNATIVE’s executive director. “His work has been instrumental in building an indigenous presence on screen and we are excited for the opportunity to recognize this legacy.” i m a g i n e N AT I V E ’s Awards Gala is a free event, open to the public.

Corvairs grad to play in Sweden By TRT staff Former Caledonia Corvair, Sarnia’s Corey Pawley, has signed a pro contract to play hockey in Sweden. Pawley will play for Brunflo IK, in the Norra group of Division One, the third tier of professional ice hockey in Sweden. The move follows a Sutherland Cup Championship season with the Caledonia Corvairs. A graduate of the Lambton Jr. Sting AAA program, Pawley scored 23 goals and 50 points in 42 games as a 16-year-old rookie. Lambton Shores acquired Pawley in an early season trade with the London Nationals. Pawley was given a
chance with the Knights to start the 2012 to 2013 campaign, but had a hard time finding ice time on a very deep London team. He was traded to Kingston in August on 2013, where he would go on to record 70 points throughout two seasons with the Frontenacs. Last season, he was a big part of the Caledonia Pro-Fit Corvairs’ third straight Sutherland Cup recording 30 goals and 80 assists for 111 points. At the same time, he is not afraid to get physical when required, racking up 100 minutes in penalties. In 20 playoff games he scored 18 goals, assisted on 40 for 58 points.
