Rocky the Flying Squirrel becomes a local celebrity

By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – Residents at Community Living got a celebrity visit from Rocky the Flying Squirrel recently as worker Debbie Henhawk brought in a flying squirrel she captured at her home near Mohawk Road and Second Line.

She says there is a whole community of them in the Carolinian bush around her home and some have even taken up residence in her home.

“I heard something rustling in the closet,” says Henhawk. “I pushed some boxes around and this little thing came running out.”

At first she thought it was a mouse or a chipmunk, and set up a live trap to catch the critter, bated with a cookie. Well, it seems “Rocky” likes cookies.

Before releasing it back into the bush at her home, Henhawk called Wildlife Officer, Paul General, who came to Community Liv-

Six Nations Community Living had a visit from a flying squirrel recently. Deb Henhawk, a worker at the facility, found this little guy in a closet in her home. She trapped it in a live trap and brought it in for the clients to see. She also called Wildlife Officer, Paul General to confirm the find and talk about flying squirrels. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE ing to confirm the identity of the little critter.

“I remember when I was young we had flying squirrels around our house,” said General. “With the clearing of trees and subsequent lack of habitat, that has a lot to do with how rare they have become around here.

We used to run them up a tree and when they had no place else to go, they jump and glide away.”

The elimination of Carolinian forests, of which Six Nations proudly still holds the largest stands of in Ontario, has also reduced the population of these timid nocturnal

creatures, and General is not surprised that there would be a population of them here.

“Because they are as small as they are, they wouldn’t be useful as a food source for hunters or anything,” says General.

“They are also almost exclusively nocturnal so not

many people see them.”

Flying squirrels are also much smaller than someone may expect and could be mistaken for a number of other species. They are only about the size of a chipmunk, fully grown. This area represents the northern boundary of where they might be found. Just off the top of his head, General thinks they are on the threatened list.

“It’s not uncommon to find them in homes,” General says. “They are kinda like raccoons in that way.

But they are pretty innoc-

uous creatures. A mouse would probably do more damage. They will bite, like any other creature, but they are certainly not dangerous.”

Henhawk says she has removed as many as nine of these creatures from her home over recent years.

“I’m not sure if it’s the same one coming back over and over again or if I have a few of them,” she says.

He is glad that “Rocky” will be released back in his own forest home.

Screen for Life Coach visiting this month

By Deena Klodt The Reclaiming Well Being Committee is a grassroots committee of healthcare providers and community members from Six Nations and New Credit that are committed to improving screening rates in Six Nations and New Credit.

We welcome the Screen for Life Mobile Coach to Six Nations this month and encourage residents to visit for free breast, cervical and colon cancer screening.

“As a member of the Reclaiming Well Being Committee, a doctor and community member, I highly recommend cancer screening as part of people’s routine medical care,” says Dr. Amy Montour, Aboriginal Clinical Lead for the Regional

Cancer Program. “These simple tests can catch cancer early, when it’s easier to treat.”

The 45-foot-long bus offers mammograms, pap tests and take-home FOBT kits (fecal occult blood test) to those who qualify. It’s staffed by a registered nurse, medical radiation technologist and booking clerk, and features a digital mammography suite, private exam room, sitting area and wheelchair accessibility.

Mammograms are recommended for women ages 50 to 74 with no signs of breast cancer and pap tests are offered to women ages 21 to 69 to screen for signs of cervical cancer.

The FOBT screens for signs of colon cancer. It’s recommended that resi-

dents ages 50 to 74 with no symptoms or family history take this easy take-home test every two years. The Coach nurse distributes FOBT kits to those who quality.

The Coach will be at Six Nations Iroquois Village Plaza on Friday, May 19 and Tuesday, May 23 to Friday, May 26 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Call 905975-4467 or 1-855-3383131 to book your appointment. Drop-ins are also welcome.

Transportation is available on May 19, 25 and 26. Anyone needing a drive can call one of the above numbers to book.

OPINION `Ello gov`na EDITORIAL BY J.G.

When you receive a threatening letter from a lawyer it will usually read, “govern yourself accordingly” at the end as a tidbit of sobering advice.

Really, that’s who we govern — ourselves and only ourselves.

At some point in human history we evolved past the point of tyranny.

Or supposedly did.

Many on Six Nations believe we have the “world’s oldest democracy”.

Others use meaningful words for our ancient government like egalitarianism, or socialism. There’s a fringe belief that Six Nations people are actually Marxists and always have been.

Democracy, Marxism, Fascism, these words and concepts are foreign to our land — they have European roots. But what these words are unable convey is that our nations recognized each other as extended family. What kind of government is family?

Let’s break down the word a bit and look at the definition of govern: to conduct the policy, actions, and affairs of (a state, organization, or people) or to exercise continuous sovereign authority over.

So when someone says that the Haudenosaunee Confederacy Chiefs Council (HCCC) is our traditional government we really need to all step back and think about what that means. Are we saying that Chiefs and Clan-mothers conduct the affairs of the families? Or do the families conduct the affairs of the Chiefs and Clan-mothers? It depends who you ask.

I may not have all the fancy words like academics do, but I know one thing for sure: no individual had the authority or power to rule over anyone else way back then and even still today!

The ideas of hierarchy and governance seem barbaric compared to the complex political/familial system that is best described with the word GAYANESHAKGOWA.

UN marks 10th anniversary of the Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples

By Doug George-Kanentiio NEW YORK – For two days, April 27 to 28, my wife, Joanne Shenandoah, and I attended the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues in New York City.

There were a number of events to mark the 10th anniversary of the passage of the UN’s Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) which has now been endorsed by most nations of the world.

UNDRIP was the culmination of decades of work by indigenous peoples to secure a permanent presence before the United Nations and its predecessor the League of Nations.

From the time of the inception of those two entities the Haudenosaunee-Six Nations Confederacy has led the movement towards formal recognition of the inherent rights of native peoples beginning with the Oneida leader Laura Cornelius Kellogg and the Cayuga rotiiane Levi General-Deskaheh, both of who travelled to Europe on passports issued by the Confederacy.

The attempt by the Haudenosaunee to have their concerns addressed with enforcement of their standing as a people with the right to self determination and to have treaties and agreements enforced was met with vigorous opposition by colonial powers such as Britain and France, both of whom had the power to veto any sanction or directive taken by the League.

After the Second World War the United Nations primary concern was to prevent the outbreak of another conflict involving the world’s nations. In an era of unparalleled resource extraction and development the concerns of Native peoples were not central to the UN. Colonial powers once again secured the authority to nullify decisions they did not believe to be in their interests.

But the Haudenosaunee persisted. Decades of work began by forming alliances, sharing information, working with human rights organizations and refusing to stop banging on the door, demanding entry.

In 1977 the Haudenosaunee led a delegation of Native peoples to the human rights session of the UN in Geneva, Switzerland. Other appearances flowed along with intense lobbying. These efforts led directly to thecreation of the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues followed by the Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

In recent years Kenneth Deer of Kahnawake has been particularly effective in persuading the UN’s General Assembly to pass the Declaration. In this work he has had the opportunity to work with the late Tonya Gonnella Frichner, Onondaga, and Oren Lyons, roterihonton (faithkeeper) for the Onondaga Nation.

The April-May 10th anniversary of the Declaration events were marked by a main forum in which Native

delegates were able to summarize their concerns and the nations in which they reside having an opportunity to respond.

The testimonials were passionate and focused on the attempts by some nations to displace indigenous peoples. When they responded by invoking UNDRIP they were, according to the Native witnesses, isolated, suppressed and labelled as terrorists.

The Native delegates from Russia and China were particularly vocal in their condemnation of those two nations in denying the human rights of indigenous peoples.

The Natives said their culture was under attack, their traditional beliefs and customs denied and when they protested the current anti-terrorism laws were used against them for the security of the state.

The Chinese spokesperson reacted angrily, denying that Native people were under duress, accusing the Native speaker of slandering that nation and emphasizing the efforts to enhance the lives of indigenous people in the western part of that country but the person also said Native people in the region were allying themselves with subversives from Turkestan.

Other testimony followed with similar stories. Native societies were being challenged from Vietnam to Fiji, Bolivia to the United States.

Indigenous people were being displaced because they lived in areas that had large natural resources which, ac-

Volume 4, Issue 40

cording to the Bolivian delegate, were now targeted by the multi-national corporations.

Those who elected to bring their concerns before the forum did so at high personal risk in some instances. They shared their stories before an assembly of many nations but other than issuing statements of concern UNDRIP has no effective enforcement provisions.

Other organizations were given a strict time limit of three minutes to deliver their remarks. The chairperson of the UNPFII is Dr. Mariam Wallet Aboubakrine from Mali and she insured that no one went beyond his or her allotted time.

International Indian Treaty Council Director Andrea Carmen, Yaqui, addressed cultural patrimony and the need to repatriate sacred items consistent with UNDRIP; her remarks were supported by the delegate from Finland. An international conference on repatriation is scheduled for Helsinki in October of this year.

Within the UN complex are large rooms in which presentations were made on topics such as: Empowering women, Biodiversity, The World Bank, Land rights, Traditional, Knowledge, Sustainability, and Indigenous Youth.

Tadodaho Sid Hill, Onondaga, opened the conference when he spoke at the large green granite podium at the General Assembly Hall, which concluded on May 5.

Keep letters short, preferably under 300 words and in response to an article in the Two Row Times. Letters will be edited for grammar and length. The opinions within letters to the editor are those of the writer and not necessarily those of the Two Row Times.

Entering the legal arena Recently the Men’s Fire and the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI) have become engaged in a legal battle concerning clarification of the liabilities and limitation of HDI’s overgrowing sphere of Influence.

As I have written before in recent editions of this newspaper, I spoke about representation as a legal contract. And in any contract the intent of both parties need to be well represented and understood.

In a contract there can be no ambiguity or misunderstanding of the limits and responsibilities of all parties. Most representatives have a limited power of attorney that states what

the person representing someone can and cannot do.

If one party believes that an ambiguity or defect has been observed then all representation must cease until that ambiguity has been cleared.

If someone has, by their own doing, unilaterally claimed to represent you, me or our clan and nations, without a verifiable proof of that claim, they have become a fiduciary De Son Tort, which may be regarded as owing fiduciary duties by a course of conduct that amounts to a wrong, or a tort, or someone who without a valid contract starts to meddle in your personal and interpersonal affairs.

In the pursuit of certain truths, the Men’s Fire, have launched a class action process that may crack the surface of the HDI phenomenon. I propose that if we are all

entered into a legal battle over the reach of HDIs authority a mass tort could be used as a tool to further the cause of truth and justice for our right to fair and proper representation. If HDI bases its authority on the fact that 50 entities consented to its designations then it would suggest that 50 Groups have been affected and each of the 50 entities make up the mass tort groups, so that each family or so called shareholders can decide what is to be done.

Each time I write about this issue of representation I get a few phone calls that inspire me to keep writing and studying. If you would like to share more ideas about this issue contact me at doolittb@gmail. com Benjamin Doolittle

What Mothers Day means to me: Miss Six Nations Shauna Clause

By Chezney Martin

Mothers Day isn't the only day we can show appreciation to an influential woman in our lives, but it is a day full of opportunity to do so. As the date is fast approaching, Miss Six Nations Shauna Clause shared her thoughts with Two Row Times on what the day means to her in hopes of giving Mother's Day inspiration to others.

What does the word “mother” mean to you?

I don't even think [a mother] has to be someone that's biologically connected to you. It could be an influential woman in your life, someone who has been there for you, nurtured you, cared for you. You know what I mean? Someone that's always been behind you in your life. A mother is there to stand behind you, but to also call you out when you're not on the right path. A mother won't let you go down that wrong path without guiding you.

Mothers are superheroes — it's not even funny.

I could never even explain the amount of love my mom has for me or the love any mother has for their kid.

What is your fondest memory of you and your

mother?

My mom is really into karaoke and she's really into singing — she loves singing. So just recently we got to sing together on stage.

Not in front of a lot of people or anything, just our friends and such.

We sang “26 Cents” by The Wilkinsons and it was the greatest. Anytime I get to sing with my mom she gets so much joy out of it, and I do too because of her joy. So, that's one of my fondest memories — is getting to sing with my mom on stage.

What was the greatest piece of wisdom that your mother gave to you?

The greatest piece of information or wisdom my mother has given me came in the form of her leading by example. She is the most resourceful person I have ever known. She doesn't stress about things for long, she always finds a way to make things work and she gets things done no matter the difficulty of the task.

I've watched her be this way my whole life and have learned through seeing the positive things that come out of it that this was a valuable skill that I wanted to develop and carry with me throughout my life.

Miss Six Nations Shauna Clause.

Finally, what are your ideas for Mothers Day? I wrote my mom a letter for Mother's Day. It's pretty long, but at the end I said: “you were the first person I loved and you were the first person that ever loved me”.

I wrote: The love and bond between mother and child can never be broken, just like I know I will never be broken and we as a family will never be broken because of everything you taught and continue to teach us. You teach us by example and you've set a pretty great one. If I could be half as great of a mother that you are, I'll be happy. Thank you for being my mom first and my best friend second.

Artist invites all Canadians to reflect and talk reconciliation

By Jayson Koblun

TORONTO – What exactly is Canada celebrating this summer?

That is the question being asked by artist Tia Cavanagh as she finishes up the final year of her drawing and painting program at OCAD University in Toronto.

“I’m inspired by many things, but currently a lot of my work has been inspired by the celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday,” said Cavanagh.

“What exactly are they celebrating and spending $5 billion on?”

Cavanagh is Ojibway from Northern Ontario, near the shores of Lake Huron. She has lived and studied in Havelock, Norwood, Peterborough, Montreal and currently lives in Toronto while she completes her education.

Cavanagh said it is very important to bring up and discuss indigenous issues through her art.

“Be loud and be proud; confront — that’s how I am with my art,” she said.

“The celebration of Canada’s 150 years is a great opportunity for artists like myself to speak up and bring awareness to issues that indigenous people are still facing today.”

Cavanagh’s art covers a wide array of topics that include Canada’s Resi-

Artist Tia Cavanagh and her art. Submitted photo dential School System, colonization, and more.

She recently created a painting that shows the Canadian flag reimagined with the head of Canada’s first prime minister, John A. Macdonald in place of the maple leaf.

“It reminds people of Canada’s role in creating the colonial system that assimilated indigenous people,” she said.

“My goal is to have everyone talk about the past, present and future. I want to invite all Canadians to the table so we can have this conversation about reconciliation,” she said, mentioning that being among the small percentage of the indigenous population at OCAD she

has had many opportunities to start these kinds of conversations with her peers and teachers.

The students often critique one another’s work and Cavanagh said that she appreciates the reactions and criticisms from all the other students.

“How an audience reacts shows how your piece affects them,” she said. “Sometimes my work starts a good dialogue about my themes.

Other times there is silence. And even still sometimes my work evokes a lot of emotion, and there are times when the audience doesn’t know what to feel, or why they feel what they feel about certain pieces

Friday, May 12 12 noon—7 pm Saturday, May 13 8 am—2 pm

Offer Valid Until May 23, 2017

— and it’s OK to feel that way.”

Cavanagh comes from a creative family. Not only artistically, but also in how her family members solve problems, and work through different situations life brings forward.

“A lot of my creativity comes from my upbringing and how I watched my family think and work through things critically.”

Her grandmother, Mary Cavanagh, went to St. Anne’s Residential School in Northern Ontario. Mary passed on in the early 2000s, yet had a great impact on Cavanagh’s life and art.

“She meant a lot to me and it’s important for me

to talk about her life and time spent in residential school,” she said.

Cavanagh doesn’t really have a favourite medium. Although she is often found painting, she uses a lot of mixed media and is just as likely to paint, as she is to create something from recycled milk cartons.

“My ideas and mediums vary from project to project,” she said. “My work is rooted in ideas, and that’s how I usually begin a piece. Sometimes I just sit and stare at a project for hours and hours before I really dig in. I take that time to really become grounded in my ideas.”

Cavanagh has little time for a social life, working full-time while finishing her program.

When she finds a few spare moments she loves to be outside and in nature.

“I don’t like living in the city at all,” she said.

“I love being outside and in nature, and near, in, or on the water. Nature grounds me.”

OCAD hosted its annual Graduate Exhibition May 3 to May 7 at 100 McCaul Street. More than 900 graduating students showcased their artwork, with one student in each program winning a medal.

Six Nations a template for Australians

By Jim Windle OHSWEKEN – Six Nations Community Living welcomed a young couple from Australia researching how Six Nations deals with its challenged adult community members, using a traditional motif.

Stephanie and Eric Cunningham came all the way from Perth, the west coast of Australia, “We are very pleased to have this opportunity to be here for two weeks. They have come partially to study and experience, as best they can in a short time.

“We’ve shown them everything we do here at Community Living,” said Jamieson. “We had some guests come in and do some dancing and singing. " The staff was also cooperative in giving interviews to the visitors about their role in caring for those in their care and how to get involved in the programs.

The Cunninghams initially contacted Community Living Ontario and, because of their work with Australia’s Aborigine communities in and around their home of Perth, specifically wanted to come to Six Nations to see how the Haudenosaunee care for their own.

Other studies of programs designed for divers cultures were also on their itinerary while here.

“I hope to bring back reports on various programs here in Canada which we can use in Australia,” said Stephanie.

HDI says case dismissed: plantiffs do not agree

By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – A public relations firm released on behalf of the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI) legal advisor Aaron Detlor and the HDI itself, a self-penned report on the class action suit filed against them, seeking approval for their case to resume.

Men’s Fire members object to the strong impression left by the article that the class-action case they are working through the courts is “frivolous”, among other similar superlatives.

But there is a difference between a case being “adjourned” (to a later date) and being “dismissed”.

Adjourned could also be described as postponed.

The men are crying foul in what they see as an attempt to sway the public and the outside media away from the facts surrounding their class action.

However, if the case was dismissed rather than adjourned, neither the plaintiffs nor their lawyer Jeff Kaufman of Jeff Kaufman Law, know anything about it.

“It is not appropriate for council to talk about the merits of a case which is before the courts,” said Kaufman.

“This is an obvious attempt to counter what they believe is negative press being given to himself and the HDI, which he is legal advisor to, regarding a long list of community complaints,” said plaintiff Bill Monture.

Kaufman was taken aback when he was informed of the media release distributed by CNW public relations firm and quickly responded to Detlor’s probable involvement in the CNW release, with the HDI as its sole source.

“This article is false and defamatory,” said Kaufman in a brief statement about the CNW article. “You had a duty to

Canadian Lawyer Aaron Detlor.

consult with opposing counsel before publication,” he added in a statement directed to Detlor’s lawyers.

According to former Men’s Fire lawyer James Brown, they were successful to get an order from the court to cross-examine Detlor and Elvera Garlow. That is where the case is currently situated as they await the only judge in the circuit that handles class actions to return from vacation.

The adjournment was to accommodate this judge’s scheduling and had no bearing on the merits of the case as was, as implied by Detlor.

“There was no comment made by the court,” says Kaufman. “Any judge would know never to do that, and as a lawyer, Detlor should have known as well.”

CNW is a news blog specializing in paid-for public relations and corporate statements packaged to look like news.

The articles are written by their clients who pay to have it posted and distributed far and wide, however it is not a news agency per se.

The submitted HDI release begins, “On April 26, 2017, Justice Andrew J. Goodman of the Ontario Superior Court adjourned a frivolous lawsuit for unfairly targeting the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI). The plaintiffs, two members of the Six Nations ‘Men's Fire’, were ordered to pay

HDI $3,500.00 in costs.

This lawsuit is completely baseless and much of it appears erroneous.

The costs awarded are a reflection of the judge's concern with the plaintiffs' case."

This is the third request for an adjournment, [made by the plaintiffs], having changed legal representation in the case.

The judge granted the adjournment, however, their former legal advisor missed an earlier court date, and it was because of that that a fine of $3,500 was imposed, and not due to any “serious concerns” as the HDI release reports, according to Kaufman.

“As far as the $3,500 fine is concerned this is nothing out of the ordinary when a party does not appear for a court date,” says Kaufman.

Kaufman lists a lot of things yet to be done before any judgement is made, including the cross examination of Detlor where he will be obligated to show evidence for his financial statements and actions he and the HDI have made to date in the name of the people of Six Nations, the Chiefs and Clan Mothers.

The next date is yet to be set pending the return and schedule of the class action judge and not due to any other reason, according to Kaufman.

The Statement of Claim, was originally delivered on August 16, 2016 and named Hazel Hill, Brian Doolittle, Aaron Detlor and Elvera Garlow as defendants. The CNW story continues, “among the absurd allegations that the judge dismissed were: breach of contract and fiduciary duty, breach of duties of the HDI, civic conspiracy, conversion, unjust enrichment and breach of trust.

But it is Kaufman’s understanding that there, in fact, was no dismissal at all of these allegations brought by his clients.

Vanishing practices: Flesh poking and skin stitching

Nearly all indigenous people from across North and South America have used tattooing as a form of adornment, beautification or even medicinal remedy for generations.

The most prominent may be the Maori, who are widely known for their intricate facial tattoos. But the prominence of traditional tattoos elsewhere has declined drastically in recent indigenous generations due to the reverberated effects of colonization.

This makes traditional indigenous tattoo artists rare and in many cases, such as with the Haudenosaunee, the traditional practice is considered to be dead.

Some might not even know that the Haudenosaunee had tattoos.

But, according to Jesuit notes and documents; the Haudenosaunee in the past used tattoos, ear piercings and body paint to adorn their bodies. The old Haudenosaunee tattoo method is called “flesh poking” whereby the tattooist would stencil a design onto the skin with a light trace of charcoal, then poke the skin with a needle-like bone until blood was drawn. Once blood was drawn and the stencil was fully traced, crushed charcoal or cinnabar would be rubbed vigorously into the wounds to later heal in colour.

It was also noted that Haudenosaunee men were mainly tattooed according to their significant achievements in battle. Many would have notches on their thighs to show how many enemies they killed in combat, or crossed-hatchets to show how many successful expe-

The Inuit have worked to revitalize two ancient methods of tattooing: the skin sewing and hand poke methods. SUBMITTED PHOTO ditions or raids they took part in. They would also commonly have totemic or meaningful pictographs and designs tattooed onto their faces, arms and chests. Many as well, would use the pictographs that adorned their bodies as a way to sign their signatures.

However, the documents suggest that Haudenosaunee women were hardly tattooed in this manner.

When women were tattooed it usually went along with a medicinal ceremony to cure rheumatism or a toothache, but this ceremony has since been lost. A Jesuit priest named Lafitau wrote that Haudenosaunee women: “content themselves with having a little branch of foliage traced along the jaw. They claim that the nerve by which the humour flows over the teeth is thus pricked, so that it can no longer fall there and that thus they cure the pain by going to the source of the ill.”

There are many ways that this practice can become revitalized for the Haudenosaunee – much

like the Inuit that are making true head way into revitalizing traditional tattoos for their people.

Inuit women were traditionally given chin tattoos to signify their coming of age since time immemorial. Today, traditional Inuit tattoo artists use two methods; one is called the hand poke whereby the artist pokes ink colour into the skin with a needle, and the other is called skin stitching whereby a thread of ink is sewn into the skin and pulled out, leaving behind the colour.

A prominent traditional Inupiak tattoo artist from Nome, Alaska is a young woman named Marjorie Tahbone. She was featured in a Great Big Story with Genesis USA last November, and she spoke prominently on how meaningful traditional tattooing is to Inuit culture.

“Our tattooing was a form of adornment and our permanent make up,” said Tahbone. “It was our way to feel beautiful and look beautiful.”

“When the missionaries came and colonization

started to happen, you know, tattooing stopped.

It's been put to sleep for about a hundred years,” she said. “Me coming in as a young Inupiak woman you know, who am I to think that I could do something that my ancestors did so many years ago? [But] when I asked the elders if it was okay to do this they said 'yes, you need to be strong.' And now it's reawakening with this revitalization effort.”

Haudenosaunee designs as pictured above are very similar to what can be seen of Haudenosaunee tattoos in old paintings.

Rebels hit the wall in Orangeville

By Jim Windle

ORANGEVILLE – The early string of six straight wins to open the 2017 Jr. B lacrosse season was broken Monday night in Orangeville. The Northmen, who won the Presidents Cup last season, represent the stiffest competition the Rebels have run into so far.

The Northmen already had the engine running when the Rebels bus arrived and came right at them building a 3-0 lead before Kevin Owen Hill temporarily stopped the bleeding from Gates Abrams at 16:24. Howev-

er, that was only a blip on the screen as Orangeville answered at 18:19 to complete the first period 4-1 for the hosts.

The Rebels would like to forget about the middle period when the Northmen added four unanswered goals for a commanding 8-1 two period score.

Whether the Rebels dressing room was loud or quiet between periods is unknown, but the result was a Rebels mini-comeback with Owen Hill scoring his second of the game and Tanner Baldwin earning the final goal in the 8-3

Even in the loss, there was one season objective new coach Miles General set out in preseason.

“If we can keep our opponents from double digits, we will be fine,” he said then.

Granted, the Six Nations Jr. B Rebels conditioning and season readiness is never an issue in the early season where lacrosse is a year-round sport, in one form or another. But setting aside Monday’s loss in Oran-

Sit-N-Bull Gas & Variety 3783 6th Line, Ohsweken, ON N0A 1M0 (905) 765-2356

geville, this year’s Rebels’ dominance is already showing.

Heading into Monday’s game in Orangeville, only six games into the 2017 season, the Rebs have inflicted 99 goals against opponents while keeping the goals against to single digits, except for a 1310 win in Owen Sound, a total of 41 goals against.

Friday night at the ILA, the Six Nations Rebels got a second kick at the Niagara Thunderhawks this young season and

proved that the earlier 15-9 Rebels win was not a fluke. By the time the final buzzer mercifully sounded, the Rebels had delivered a 21-6 pounding to the visitors.

Justin Martin led the Rebel charge with four goals and four assists. Wes Whitlow had a nine-pointer on thee goals and six assists.

Layne Smith and Sidney Powless each went three goals and two assists for five-point nights while Wake:Riat Bowhunt-

er went 2-3 for his five point game.

Last Thursday in Hamilton the Rebels took away the 16-7 win.

Looking ahead, the next challenge for this year’s Rebels comes Friday night at 8 p.m., at the ILA, when the St. Catharines Spartans are visiting Six Nations.

On Saturday, May 13, Six Nations are on he road to see the Point Edward Pacers of the Far West Division.

By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS – The Six Nations Jr. C Warriors toyed with the visiting Caledon Bandits like a cat with a mouse, Sunday afternoon at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena (ILA).

After a few minutes of getting acquainted, the Warriors seemed almost bored and started filling the Bandits net.

The Warriors were the far better team on this given Sunday. They looked mid-season ready compared to the Bandits who still appeared to be getting their legs under them for the 2017 season.

The game was well in hand rather early as some of the more outgoing Warriors started taking a trick shot or two, just for the shear fun of it. At times, it was easy to feel sorry for the Bandits under all that offensive pressure, but not for the Warriors who just kept ringing them up.

You could forgive goalie Jackson Miller and his defence for loosing focus as the game wound down, allowing the Bandits to score a few and preserve some form of dignity, getting back on the bus.

Loaded with new

players not named on the game sheet, the Six Nations Jr. C Warriors crushed the Bandits 19-8 at the ILA. There was very little resistance along the way as the Warriors looked well prepared for the new season. That is on the floor. However, there were eight Warriors on the official game sheet simply referred to “new player.”

After a 7-2 first period in which the Warriors accurate shooting and natural playmaking skills played a major role, which they duplicated in the second period of a 14-2 score to that point in the game.

They let the Bandits into the game in the third period allowing four goals, however, Six Nations added another five for the 19-8 final.

The skill differential was obvious even to visiting Bandit fans as they watched their boys get humiliated by the high-flying Warriors.

The Warriors opened the season with a 10-7 win over Brantford last week.

Meanwhile, the new Brantford Warriors won a huge confidence building 9-8 win over last

year’s champion Wilmot Wild, Sunday at the Wilmot Arena. Wilmot took a 4-3 first period lead with Mark Verutis scoring two for Wilmot and Ryan Maksymyk and Ryan Smart scoring 52 second apart at the midway point of the period.

Michael Comeau scored twice along with Austin Giles for Brantford.

Each team scored four goals in the second to head into the final frame with Brantford ahead by a slim 8-7 margin. Brantford Warriors’ Jayden Drage and Austin Gilles scored in the third while Lucas Nagy held the fort in the Brantford goal.

Wilmot was led by Tyler Verutis with four goals.

Saturday, May 13, the Oakville Buzz will host the Warriors in Oakville for a 7 p.m. start. Sunday, May 14, Six Nations fans will see the Warriors and Mimico face off at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena for an afternoon, 2 p.m. start.

Brantford will be in Whitby Friday, May 12, and return to the Brantford and District Civic Centre to host the Fergus Thistles at 8 p.m.

Rivermen slow KW Velocity 20-1

By Jim Windle OHSWEKEN – The question was never “if” the Six Nations Rivermen were going to win on Sunday, against the KW Velocity, only a matter of by how much. That spread ended up being 20-1.

Veterans Roger Vyse scored the game’s first four goals at the Gaylord Powless Arena (GPA) as Six Nations went on to create a 10-0 first period score. He added a fifth to make it 8-0 plus an assist on Kyle Smith’s goal for a 5-point period.

Joel Shepley and Dwayne Porter scored early in the second before KW finally got one past Warren Hill to ruin his shutout, but that would be all the offence the Velocity could gather against a strong and highly experienced Rivermen.

Two more Six Nations goals in the third period totalled 20 for the home team.

Also with multiple point games were, Mike Miller (2G,4A), Tommy Montour (1G,4A), Danton Miller (1G,3A), Stu Hill (4A), Greg Longboat (1G,3A), Rodd Squire (2G,1A), and Dwayne Porter (2G,1A).

This week will have the Rivermen rather busy beginning with a tilt with the Oakville Titans at 8 p.m. in Oakville Friday, May 12.

The Six Nations Sr. B Rivermen opened the 2017 campaign to retain the President’s Cup on the right foot with a 9-6 win over the Innismore James Gang on April 29th. Tommy Montour scored two and assisted on two to lead the Rivermen for the win.

Since then, the Rivermen had been gearing up for their second game of the brand new season, which was played Sunday evening May 7 at the Gaylord Powless Arena.

NLL matchups for 2017 to be decided

By Jim Windle

NLL – The NLL final weekend is upon us after the field was thinned out in the semi-finals last week.

In the West, the Colorado Mammoth slipped by the Vancouver Stealth 1312 at the Langley Events Centre. Three late Vancouver goals made it interesting but the clock became the enemy running out before they could get that tying goal.

Meanwhile in Toronto, the Rock stopped the New England Black Wolves 18-10 at the Air Canada Centre. Brett Bucktooth scored one and assisted on two for the Wolves.

Doug Jamieson saw a little more than seven minutes taking over for starter Evan Kirk late in the game. He made four saves and allowed two goals.

Toronto advanced to the East Division finals to play the top-seeded Georgia Swarm.

The 2017, National Lacrosse League Championship finals begin May 13, with the Georgia Swarm visiting the Air Canada Centre for an appointment with the Toronto Rock at 7 p.m..

In the West, the Saskatchewan Rush is up against the Colorado Mammoth later that same evening, in Colorado.

Game No. 2 will have the Rock in Georgia, and the Mammoth in Saskatchewan.

As adopted for 2014, a 10-minute tiebreaker game will be played immediately following Game 2 of the Division Finals should the series be tied, 1-1.

For the second-straight year, the Champion’s Cup Finals expand to a full best-of-three series with the higher-seeded team hosting Game No. 1 and Game No. 3 (if necessary).

In the regular season, Georgia recorded 13 wins and five losses, lead the

league with 266 goals and 415 assists for 681 points, while Toronto scored 219 goals and assists totalled 320 for 536 points. Toronto won nine and lost nine.

Saskatchewan scored 231 goals and 341 assists for 572 points, and Colorado scored 202 times with 305 assists for 536 points. The Rush won 12 and lost six in the regular season while Colorado went an even nine and nine.

ern Conference Second Round.

An extra day for the Ducks to mend physically and mentally after a 7-1 loss in Game 6 on Sunday at Rogers Place, the first time in franchise history they have allowed seven goals in a playoff game.

Game 7 is on Wednesday at Honda Center (TBD).

"After this, maybe it is a good thing to have a couple of days to flush it," Ducks

defenseman Cam Fowler said on Sunday.

Fowler said he would try to get his mind off hockey for the day and play with his dog. At least that's one way not to get asked about Game 7 shortcomings.

"The worst thing I think you can do is think about hockey the whole time," Fowler said. "We have two days in between. Enjoy the little things in life. There's more to life than hockey.

Then get mentally and physically refreshed and come Wednesday I expect us all to be ready to play."

Randy Carlyle, who returned to coach the Ducks this season after coaching them from 2005-11 already kick-started the process by creating separation from the failures in the last four Game 7s -- "I wasn't here" - and saying this team was a "different group" from the others.

This will be the fifth straight year the Ducks have played a Game 7. They are on a 0-4 run, having lost Game 7s to the Nashville Predators (2016), the Chicago Blackhawks (2015), the Los Angeles Kings (2014) and the Detroit Red Wings (2013).

Each also followed a loss in Game 6 when the Ducks had a chance to close out the series.

"It's a great opportunity

The winter team session has now ended at Miscue Billiards and will be moving into their Summer Singles session, which begins Wednesday May 10, 2017.

As we go into the last night of team play, "Smoothies" will meet up with 8-ball Express battling it out for league champs with Smoothies down by 4 Balls.

Smooth shooting was done by with "Smoothies" taking first place. SUBMITTED PHOTO

Game 7 failures haunt Ducks

By Lisa Dillman / NHL. com Staff Writer Anaheim, has been eliminated in winner-take-all situation at home in each of past four seasons EDMONTON – Maybe it is a beneficial quirk in the schedule that the Anaheim Ducks have two days off, rather than one, before Game 7 against the Edmonton Oilers of the West-

From Notre Dame and McKinnon Park to Holy Cross and Hagersville Secondary; McMaster University open it's fields to host an all-day varsity tournament on Tuesday, April 25, with two 10 minute periods in each game.

for us," Fowler said. "I don't think we should be thinking about the past at all. We should be thinking about the present and the opportunity we have and I think we're excited for that."

The Ducks are 2-6 in Game 7s in franchise history, which includes one win in five Game 7s on home ice. Their last Game 7 victory was more than a decade ago, in the Western Conference First Round against the Flames at Calgary in 2006.

This series has been a wild affair of huge momentum swings and there's been virtually no correlation from one night to the next. So there's no reason to think Wednesday will be any different.

Each team have been resilient, even dating to the first round. The youthful Oilers, in fact, rebounded impressively in Games 5 and 6 after a devastating 7-0 loss to the San Jose Sharks in Game 4 of the first round.

Now everyone will be looking for a hero.

On Sunday, the hero was Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl, who had five points (three goals, two assists), and in Game 5, it was Ducks center Ryan Getzlaf, who started the unprecedented rally in the final 3:16 of regulation with the first goal and set up the winner in a 4-3 overtime victory.

Who will step up and be Mr. Game 7 on Wednesday?

No words are adequate to express what your love, compassion, sympathy, and help means to us.

Our Thomas was special not only to us, but to everyone’s lives he touched, however briefly. Thomas packed so much living into his short 19 years, we are still marveling at the number of lives he touched. In his passing, he was able to bring so many people together to reinforce family ties, existing friendships and create lasting new friendships.

The massive outpouring of sympathy, concern, and support; from supplies, food, financial and floral from everyone, are too numerous to mention, individually, but know, we will never forget it.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Discovering all of the answers need not be your goal all the time, Taurus. Keep in mind that the journey can sometimes be more rewarding than the destination.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Next week may be a better time to make a big decision, Leo. Coast along for a little bit longer and get a feel for the lay of the land before making your decision.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Coming across memorabilia or old photographs may have you thinking about those who came before you, Virgo. It is a good week for introspection and reminiscing.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, don’t let any opportunity pass you by this week — even those that may seem like they won’t yield much reward. Everything is a learning opportunity.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Obsessive thoughts will not make the solution to a problem come any easier. It’s better if you clear your head and then maybe the ideas will arrive when you least expect.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Think of something you can do that will be a big risk and out of character, Sagittarius. It may give you a rush of adrenaline this week and pave the way for new interests.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that you can handle whatever comes your way. You are the only one who can derail your plans.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Someone you wouldn’t normally look to for advice provides some invaluable wisdom in the days ahead, Aquarius. Heed this advice and express your gratitude.
