pages ! e id 20-21 s in In the past month, two roads near Six Nations and Caledonia have each experienced blockades set up by a group of protestors mainly from Six Nations who are upset with the government`s perceived renege on the 2006 promise to return the Burtch Land to Six Nations. The roadblock on Argyle Street just off Highway 6 was up for almost one month while the second, on the Highway 6 bypass, was short-lived. The Highway 6 bypass was blocked for a few hours on Monday, but as of Tuesday was taken down and now both roadways are open to traffic. No arrests were made, and there were no injuries reported.

The doctors said "it was life or death" Protests SIX NATIONS – Jessica Henhawk celebrated her birthday last week at home. Jessica, from Six Nations, has been on the mend since May 10 after undergoing eight to 10 hours of surgery for a second lung transplant. In August Jessica was deemed healthy enough to be given a day pass so she could leave Toronto General Hospital and celebrate her 40th birthday with her family and friends on September 2. “I’m feeling awesome and positive. I [couldn’t] wait to get home,” said Jessica. “I just want to get back to the routine, like go to my mom’s house and have tea or have a hot dog off the barbecue.” The road that brought Jessica back to Six for a birthday celebration was long and paved with difficulties. After the surgery, unexpected health complications and financial roadblocks left Jessica and her family to the wind.

“After the lung surgery, I was back in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) but I was standing and walking around with a walker after about three days. I got discharged from ICU down to the Acute Care Unit (ACU) and I was there for a week at least and then my oxygen levels started to fall.” Jessica explains, “I was told by the nurses that they didn’t know what to do because at that time they didn’t know my lung was collapsing.” After that Jessica was intubated at her bedside and taken back to the ICU

where she later woke up. “When I woke up I was like, ‘What’s going on?’” she said. “I had tubes in my mouth and I couldn’t talk and I was there for about a week before they sent me back to ACU and was there for about a week and finally made it down to the ward floor.” “After spending time in the ward floor, they told me they wanted to take me back to the ICU for this ‘breathing cycle’ I’m in, which I didn’t know what that meant,” said Jessica. “My mom was on her way back to Toronto at that

point so I told them to wait for my mom before they took me and when she arrived we went back to ICU where they intubated me again. The tube that they use to put in your throat is kind of rippled, so what happened was when they put that tube into my throat I had ulcers that nobody knew about in my esophagus so when the tube was being inserted the ripples on it irritated the ulcers and opened them up and later I started to bleed internally.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 33

SUPERIOR, WI — Protests are escalating against Enbridge Energy's plan to replace its Line 3 crude oil pipeline and against a separate aging Enbridge pipeline under the waterway linking Michigan's upper and lower peninsulas. Six protesters were arrested this week near Superior, Wisconsin, where

Enbridge began work in June to replace Line 3. The pipeline carries Canadian tar sands crude from Alberta. Protesters briefly shut down construction Tuesday. Opponents of both pipelines plan Labor Day weekend actions in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK — Authorities say wildfires near California’s Yosemite National Park have entered a 2700 year old grove of giant sequoia trees. Officials with the states fire departments said the fires entered the Nelder Grove on Friday evening. The trees are noted

to be some of the oldest living organism on earth - and the Nelder Grove is home to one of the largest measuring 24 stories high. Fire officials do not have a total count of trees that were lost. The current wildfire at Yosemite spans over 20 kilometres.

CALEDONIA — At around 1:30, Monday afternoon, the Highway 6 bypass in Caledonia was shut down by Six Nations protesters upset with the government’s perceived renege on the 2006 promise to return the Burtch Land. It was to be returned as it was when taken. In 1784 there was no such thing as the Elected Band Council, which came into being in 1924 after a take over of the traditional Six Nations government. The sudden closure seemed to come as a complete surprise to the OPP who have been attending the shutdown of Argyle Street in Caledonia for the past week. With the long weekend and an aborted removal of the Argyle Street blockade by the protesters themselves, Police were stretched thin when the bypass was suddenly closed on Labour Day. For a time, both Argyle Street and the Caledonia bypass were closed. Police attempted to block Sixth Line Road at the bridge, but were sent away by protesters and ordered to take up position further back, which they did. There was further jockeying of OPP lines when the old hydro tower section left over from 2006, which served the same purpose 11 years later, was dragged off the road by protesters. All other obstacles were removed as well, opening

An attempt to remove the Argyle Street blockade was made Saturday night by the protesters themselves, but police responded in force, not knowing what was going on, it appears, and the barricade stayed up. The first attempt at blocking the bypass was aborted. A fire was set on the railway line that crosses Sixth Line, which Six Nations Fire Department put out. Although there was no damage done to the tracks, CN Rail diverted its freight traffic to another line until the situation is resolved. There was a sense of 2006, but much more measured by both protesters and police for the

NY seeking ban on lures to protect deer ALBANY, NY — Deer hunters in New York are fighting federal lawmakers over a proposed ban of deer urine luring sprays. Wildlife biologists say the urine and scented sprays could be contaminated with chronic wasting disease - a deadly neurological infection that affects deer and elk much like mad cow disease. Provincial officials in Ontario monitor chronic wasting disease in local

deer populations across the province. In Ontario those urine scented deer luring sprays are already banned from use with potential fines for carrying them in field while hunting. Biologists say the sprays, along with the saliva and faces of sick animals, can contaminate the soil and foraging plants with the infectious proteins that carry the disease.

better part of the day. Sunday was quiet, but at around 1:30 pm, on Labour Day, Monday, that all changed when the Highway 6 bypass was suddenly closed by protesters. Not long after that, protesters removed the Argyle Street barricade. After police surveyed the roadway for debris, Argyle Street was reopened. But now, with the very busy Highway 6 bypass shut down on the long weekend, all that traffic heading towards Hamilton had to go through Caledonia. Traffic backed up quickly and now police had to deal with excessive traffic at nearly every corner in Caledonia. Six Nations Police participated in the action by blocking Sixth Line Road at Oneida Road to prevent people from getting back to the former Douglas Creek compound from that direction. Access from Highway 6 to Sixth Line, and for a time, Fifth Line was closed by OPP. When a contingent of around 50 police in Riot Gear swarmed the Highway 6 bypass, protesters scattered, forming up again at Sixth Line and Oneida where Six Nations Police prevented their re-

turn to the DCE (Kanonhstaton) site. Police had closed all entries to Kanonhstaton and placed five OPP cruisers across the front gate and imposed a “no one in – no one out” order. That left some elderly people and a pregnant woman along with a couple of men in the cookhouse with nowhere to go and the mobile protesters no way to get in to protect them in needed. This incensed protesters who had gathered at 6th Line and Oneida Road. After a brief message was relayed, the group left for another location in hopes to get back on DCE. As evening fell, tensions spiked again when police were alerted that protesters were on the 7th Line overpass. About 20 officers were dispatched to that location some equipped with assault rifles and tactical gear. In the meantime OPP cleared away the debris from the bypass and eventually opened it. Both Argyle Street and the bypass are now open to traffic. There were no arrests made in any of the incidents.

Kids day at Kanata Fuels By Rachel Binek

Jukasa Radio was live on location entertaining more than 500 visitors at Kanata Fuels last Saturday, September 2 for a great day for a great cause. Kanata wanted to bring children in the community together to raise awareness about diversity and give the kids a chance to win a free day at camp. The goal was also to encourage kids in the community to try something different, and to bring awareness to the fun and benefit of racing. Maybe now racing could become a new hobby, allowing a chance to go outside their comfort zones. “These days it’s harder and harder to keep kids focused on something, with so many distractions and not so much good things to do — this gives them something to do. That’s what it’s all about, keeping things fun and busy,” said Steve Montour, owner of Kanata Fuels.

OPINION The Ancient Tongue EDITORIAL BY JONATHAN GARLOW

If we measure the success of a people by its technology this current society may be the most successful society of all time. But if we are to measure the success of a people by their level of fulfilment and contentment with life, then the ancient ancestors of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) enjoyed more success than we can begin to imagine. Success. It’s such a loaded word. As if there is one moment in our lives in which we finally achieve our dreams and goals. Maybe for some there is, but for the rest of us success becomes a phantom that is always just out of sight. For anyone who has witnessed an open-heart surgery it is absolutely amazing that we as humans have the ability to accomplish it. A successful operation is a huge success in every way. Likewise, Onkwehon:we children learning to speak an endangered language and preserving it is also a huge success, we can’t compare the two. In a materialist society, financial income measures success. The children of Grand River Territory deserve to be both culturally and financially successful. It’s the hope for success that compels us to send our indigenous children into an imposed Canadian education system year after year — a foreign system which actually teaches them wrong and harmful ideas about their own history and identity through mental programming and conditioning. It’s a dangerous game. We have possible heart surgeons of the future at-

tending their first week of school. The institutions of Canada must begin to recognize our children’s right to decolonize even though they are surrounded by colony. Canada tried to erase Haudenosaunee culture in the past. Reconciliation is fostering our cultural expression no matter how it may arise — inconvenient, uncomfortable or otherwise. We have no obligation to be coherent to our visitors just as they have never been coherent to us. Decolonization is the process of looking back to our collective past and discerning which parts of our story and culture can be preserved and integrated into our modern lives. Decolonization is taking the spirit and intent of our teachings and bolstering our society with the practicality and wisdom of our elders. What good is it if a person memorizes the ceremonies and becomes fluent in all five languages but doesn’t show compassion and empathy? A bad method can ruin a good message. Is the heart of our culture based upon protocol or is it based upon wisdom and understanding? Who then is the most cultural person on Six Nations? Who among us has wisdom? Superstition and fear must give way to reason, logic and truth. Look at what is happening all around us. The mountains are ablaze with wildfire while floods cover the south. An eclipse just happened in the sky. Multiple hurricanes are raging. Perhaps our Earth-Mother is speaking to us in the most ancient tongue.

Haldimand Proclamation trustees say Mohawks not represented By TRT staff Current situations involving protests, misunderstandings and maybe a little self-seeking over the return of the Burtch Lands as promised by Honourable David Peterson in 2006, has created an atmosphere some might call politically toxic. But if nothing else it has also created an atmosphere of open communication. Many believe that, roughly speaking, there are only around maybe 10 to 20 per cent of Six Nations residents who would call the Elected Council the official government of Six Nations. There is about the same number that would call the HCCC the official government of Six Nations, which means there are many between the two poles who don’t know what or who to believe. It is this alienated group the trustees want to hear from in this way. Ask questions about this statement. There will be other topics in future issues. The following is a statement presented by women representing the titleholders of the Haldimand Proclamation of 1784. Its purpose is to open dialogue with the people of Six

Nations in general, but Mohawks of the Grand River Territory specifically. To participate in the discussion, go to www. tworowtimes.com, find this statement on and add your perspective beneath it based on the passion of the statement. STATEMENT REGARDING CURRENT STATUS OF BURTCH LAND: In a letter dated May 17, 2006, The Honourable David Peterson made the promise that “It is the intention that

the land title be returned to its original state, its status under the Haldimand Proclamation of 1784.” Elected band council gave the negotiation lead in the 2006 Kanastá:ton occupation to the Confederacy Chiefs Council where Mohawks are not properly represented. Since then, both entities, Band Council and Confederacy Chiefs Council have expressed the intent to incorporate the land which places the land under Canadian law under "addition to Reserves"

policies. The unbroken line of Mohawk caretakers of the Haldimand Proclamation remind the Government of Canada and the People that the Six Nations Confederacy Council and the Six Nations Elected Council are not the “representative institution” for the affairs of the Mohawks of the Grand River Territory.

The Sandy Creek war crimes of 1864 column By Jim Windle

Editors note: This article uses the term "Indian" in its historical context of the day. Be advised, there also appears gruesome details of violence and war. Washington, December 20, 1864 — "The affair at Fort Lyon, Colorado, in which Colonel Chivington destroyed a large Indian village, and all its inhabitants, is to be made the subject of congressional investigation. Letters received from high officials in Colorado say that the Indians were killed after surrendering, and that a large proportion of them were women and children." The following contains excerpts from an enquiry called by the fledgling American government into the practices of the U.S. Calvary against Cheyenne and Arapahoe Chiefs, men, women and children and others with them. During a campaign which has come to be known as the Sandy Creek Massacre. There is also a contemporary newspaper report from 1864 regarding the brutal massacre of November 29, 1864, on peaceful Southern Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians led by a band of Colonel John Chivington’s Colorado volunteers at Sand Creek, Colorado. Testimonies from the Inquiry show, that at nine o'clock in the evening, a command set out from Fort Lyon for the temporary Indian village. They were told to gather and await the government’s proposal for peace during the Indian Wars. “As daylight dawned we came in sight of the Indian camp, after a forced midnight march of forty-two miles, in eight hours, across the rough, unbroken plain. But little time was required for preparation. The forces had been divided and arranged for battle on the march, and just as the sun rose they dashed upon the enemy with yells that would put a Comanche army to blush. Although utterly surprised, the savages were not un-

prepared, and for a time their defence told terribly against our ranks. Their main force rallied and formed in line of battle on the bluffs beyond the creek, where they were protected by rudely constructed rifle-pits, from which they maintained a steady fire until the shells from company C's (third regiment) howitzers began dropping among them, when they scattered and fought each for himself in genuine Indian fashion. As the battle progressed the field of carriage widened until it extended over not less than twelve miles of territory. The Indians who could escape or secreted themselves, and by three o'clock in the afternoon the carnage had ceased. It was estimated that between three and four hundred of the savages got away with their lives. Of the balance there were neither wounded nor prisoners. Their strength at the beginning of the action was estimated at nine hundred. Their village consisted of 130 Cheyenne and with Arapahoe lodges. These, with their contents, were totally destroyed. Among there effects were large supplies of flour, sugar, coffee, tea, &c. Women's and children's clothing were found; also books and many other articles which must have been taken from captured trains or houses. One white man's scalp was found which had evidently been taken but a few days before. The Chiefs fought with unparalleled bravery, falling in front of their men. One of them charged alone against a force of two or three hundred, and fell pierced with balls far in advance of his braves. Our attack was made by five battalions. The first regiment, Colonel Chivington, part of companies C,D,E,G, H and K, numbering altogether about two hundred and fifty men, was divided into two battalions; the first under command of Major Anthony, and the second under Lieutenant Wilson, until the latter was disabled, when the command devolved

upon Lieutenant Dunn. The three battalions of the third, Colonel Shoup, were led by Lieutenant Colonel Bowen, Major Sayr, and Captain Cree. The action was begun by the battalion of Lieutenant Wilson, who occupied the right, and by a quick and bold movement cut off the enemy from their herd of stock. From this circumstance we gained our great advantage. A few Indians secured horses, but the great majority of them had to fight or fly on foot. Among those killed were all the Cheyenne chiefs, Black Kettle, White Antelope, Little Robe, Left Hand, Knock Knee, One Eye, and another, name unknown. Not a single prominent man of the tribe remains, and the tribe itself is almost annihilated … It has been reported that the chief Left Hand, of that tribe, was killed, but Colonel Chivington is of the opinion that he was not. Among the stock captured were a number of government horses and mules. The Indian camp was well supplied with defensive works. For half a mile along the creek there was an almost continuous chain of rifle-pits, and another similar line of works crowned the adjacent bluff. Pits had been dug at all the salient points for miles. After the battle twenty-tree dead Indians were taken from one of these pits and 27 from another. “In no single battle in North America, we believe, have so many Indians been slain,” says one report. Testimonies: Mr. John S. Smith. The Inquiry of United States Indian interpreter and special Indian agent “The issue of yesterday's News, containing the following dispatch, created considerable of a sensation in this city, particularly among the “Thirdsters” (third regiment) as this and others who participated in the recent campaign and the battle on Sand creek. That "surrendering" must have been the happy

thought of an exceedingly vivid imagination, for we can hear of nothing of the kind from any of those who were engaged in the battle. On the contrary, the savages fought like devils to the end, and one of our pickets was killed and scalped by them the next day after the battle, and a number of others were fired upon. In one instance a party of the vidette pickets were compelled to beat a hasty retreat to save their lives, full twenty-four hours after the battle closed. This does not look much like the Indians had surrendered.” Question. How many Indians were there there? Answer. There were 100 families of Cheyennes, and some six or eight lodges of Arapahoes. Question. How many persons in all, should you say? Answer. About 500 we estimate them at five to a lodge. Question. 500 men, women and children? Answer. Yes, sir. Question: Do you know the reason for that attack on the Indians? Answer: I do not know any exact reason. I have heard a great many reasons given. I have heard that that whole Indian war had been brought on for selfish purposes. Colonel Chivington was running for Congress in Colorado, and there were other things of that kind; and last spring a year ago he was looking for an order to go to the front, and I understand he had this Indian war in view to retain himself and his troops in that country, to carry out his electioneering purposes. Question: Had there been, to your knowledge, any hostile act or demonstration on the part of these Indians or any of them? Answer: Not in this band. But the northern band, the band known by the name of Dog soldiers of Cheyennes, had committed many depredations on the Platte. Question: Do you know whether or not CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

N a t ur e Has Eyes By Quin Staats A beautiful woman once told me that moths are messengers of the dead (more pleasantly put: of the other side, the spirit world). I used to have, let's say, my reservations with moths. I saw them as the butterfly’s drunken evil twin. Muddy, dusty, lumpy and hairy; they were the annoying, ugly duckling that never became the swan. Yet especially, the majority of my hatred festered from a lifetime of relentless torture that scarred me, enslaved in infinite terror. Due to their insistent tendency to bomb dive me right between the eyes, and flutter their gross furry wings all over my forehead and eyelids, I developed a deep-rooted phobia of their very (even distant) presence. The other night I went to my brother’s for an evening bonfire. Stars, flames, bullfrogs, and family in the backwoods of Third Line, it was a gathering our ancestors couldn't miss. Soon, even tucked in front of a small four-foot blaze, the late summer evening was growing crisp and colder. My brother Logan sang softly with his guitar between the fire and pond. I walked to get a blanket in the pitch-black peace of Nature at night, my brother’s song echoing behind me, lost in a full euphoric distraction. One of those pure feel good, grateful moments — you know what I mean? I reached the house and grabbed the doorknob under the glow of the porch

light. Right before turning the knob, my “happy place” vanished when I noticed a familiar sound: the haunting, subtle buzz of a flock of creepy wings. I hunched and slowly lifted my head to assess the extent of the swarm of monsters above me. Staring at my feet, I reluctantly raised my eyes. Barely lifting my chin, my heart plummeted into my stomach, squeezing the air out my lungs. Jumping several feet back like a spooked cat, I died a little inside once I got a clear view of the creature that, moments before, perched inches from my face. A gargantuan, hairy, prehistoric moth sat thinly closed on the door. It's tattered grey wings were the size of two dried up pig’s ears, and several legs and antennae wriggled from its lumpy baby-carrot sized body. Stepping forward to get a closer look in a disgusted curiosity, the moth gracefully relaxed its wings to reveal a bold masterpiece of intricate beauty on their inside. Amid two identically symmetrical designs, both wings had a crystal clear blue eye. I looked deep into the bright eyes as they looked back at and through me. They seemed to say so much yet nothing at all, in a flash of a heated moment. Guilty, I’d judged a book by its cover. However, amongst a cryptic silence I heard a message. The message was not within the moth itself. The moth was more of a message notification: a secretary who stares you in the eyes, slaps you in the face, messes with your hair, harasses and annoys youwithout mercy. Bing (x infinity)!!! You have a message from Ancestor. Message will soon expire.

Sandy Creek War Crimes of 1864 continued from page 7 Colonel Chivington knew the friendly character of these Indians before he made the attack upon them? Answer. It is my opinion that he did.

Were there any acts of barbarity perpetrated there that came under your own observation? Answer. Yes, sir; I saw the bodies of those lying there cut all to pieces, worse mutilated than any I ever saw before; the women cut all to pieces. Question. By whom were they mutilated? Answer: By the United States troops. Question: Were the warriors and women and children all huddled together when they were attacked? Answer: They started and left the village altogether, in a body, trying to escape. Testimony of Colonel J. M. Chivington On the 29th day of November, 1864, the troops under my command attacked a camp of Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians at a place known as Big Bend of Sandy, about forty miles north of Fort Lyon, Colorado Territory. There were in my command at that time about (500) five hundred men of the 3rd regiment Colorado cavalry, under the

immediate command of Colonel George L. Shoup, of said 3rd regiment, and about (250) two hundred and fifty men of the 1st Colorado cavalry; Major Scott J. Anthony commanded one battalion of said 1st regiment, and Lieutenant Luther Wilson commanded another battalion of said 1st regiment. The 3rd regiment was armed with rifled muskets, and Star's and Sharp's carbines. A few of the men of that regiment had revolvers. The men of the 1st regiment were armed with Star's and Sharp's carbines and revolvers. The men of the 3rd regiment were poorly equipped; the supply of blankets, boots, hats, and caps was deficient. The men of the 1st regiment were well equipped; all these troops were mounted. I had four 12-pound mountain howitzers, manned by detachments from cavalry companies; they did not belong to any battery company. Question: How many of them were old men, how many of them were women, and how many of them were children? Answer: From the best and most reliable information I could obtain, there were in the Indian camp, at the time of the attack, about eleven (11) or twelve (12) hundred Indians: of these about seven hundred were warriors, and the remainder were women and children. I am not aware that there were any old men among them. There was an unusual number of males among

them, for the reason that the war chiefs of both nations were assembled there evidently for some special purpose. Question: What number did you lose in killed, what number in wounded, and what number in missing? Answer. There were seven men killed, forty-seven wounded, and one was missing. Question: What number of Indians were killed; and what number of the killed were women, and what number were children? Answer: From the best information I could obtain, I judge there were five hundred or six hundred Indians killed; I cannot state positively the number killed, nor can I state positively the number of women and children killed. Officers who passed over the field, by my orders, after the battle, for the purpose of ascertaining the number of Indians killed, report that they saw but few women or children dead, no more than would certainly fall in an attack upon a camp in which they were. I myself passed over some portions of the field after the fight, and I saw but one woman who had been killed, and one who had hanged herself; I saw no dead children. From all I could learn, I arrived at the conclusion that but few women or children had been slain. I am of the opinion that when the attack was made on the Indian camp the greater number of squaws and children made their escape, while the warriors remained to fight my troops. Question: Had you any, and if so, what reason, to believe that Black Kettle and the Indians with him, at the time of your attack, were at peace with the whites, and desired to remain at peace with them?

LISTEN ONLINE

Answer. I had no reason to believe that Black Kettle and the Indians with him were in good faith at peace with the whites. The day before the attack Major Scott J. Anthony, lst Colorado cavalry, then in command at Fort Lyon, told me that these Indians were hostile; that he had ordered his sentinels to fire on them if they attempted to come into the post, and that the sentinels had fired on them; that he was apprehensive of an attack from these Indians, and had taken every precaution to prevent a surprise… Question. What number of Indians were killed; and what number of the killed were women, and what number were children? Answer.

nalist with first hand knowledge as a witness and covered the inquiry did not agree and we offer his account for the record. The newspaper report from 1865 is entitled: “Barbarous Massacre of Indians” makes some very damning statements. “The head chief ran forward with a small white flag, but a general massacre was immediately commenced,” he wrote. “Men women and children were indiscriminately slaughtered. From the sucking bade to the old warrior, all who were overtaken were deliberately murdered. Not content with killing women and children, who were incapable of offering any resistance, the soldiers indulged in acts of barbarity of the most revolting character, such, it is to be hoped, as never before disgraced the acts of men claiming to be civilized. … For more than two hours the work of murder and barbarity was continued until more than 100 dead bodies, three-fourths of them women and children, lay on the plain as evidence of the fiendish malignity and cruelty of the officers who had sedulously and carefully plotted the massacre and of the soldiers who had also faithfully acted out the spirit of the officers.” Denver's Rocky Mountain News reported the scene of these "soldiers" returning from the massacre: "The 'Bloody Thirsters' made an imposing procession as they marched into the city (Denver). Denver citizens acclaimed the heroes of Sandy Creek and 100 scalps were displayed to enthusiastic patrons of a local theatre. Not displayed, and never produced, was a single white scalp said to have been found at the Cheyenne Camp."

Sinclair says to focus on indigenous heroes OTTAWA — The former chairman of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission says tearing down tributes that are considered offensive to Indigenous Peoples would be ``counterproductive’’. Sen. Murray Sinclair says the time spent debating whether to remove Sir John A. Macdonald's name from Ontario schools is time that would be better spent discussing the need to honour and elevate Indigenous heroes. Sinclair's remarks come after an Ontario teachers union passed a controversial motion calling for the rechristening of schools named after Canada's first prime minister, accusing Macdonald of advocating Indigenous genocide.

The findings of the inquiry stated, "This extraordinary act seems to be absolutely without palliation. The Indians had not only been friendly themselves, but had done all that lay in their power to restrain the lawlessness and violence of their tribes. The language of the Commissioners towards Colonel Chivington is most severe. The accused him of “having deliberately planned and executed a foul and dastardly massacre." The inquiry recommended the immediate removal of all the officers who took part in the butchery, and who “disgraced the Government by whom they are employed.”

Supreme Court of Canada clarifies duty to consult By Borden Ladner Gervals LLP Published with permission

The Supreme Court of Canada has unanimously clarified several features of the Crown's duty to consult with and accommodate indigenous populations prior to project approvals being granted. The companion decisions of Canada's top court in Clyde River (Hamlet) v. Petroleum Geo-Services Inc., 2017 SCC 40 (Clyde River) and Chippewas of the Thames First Nation v. Enbridge Pipelines Inc., 2017 SCC 41 (Chippewas) clarify when the duty to consult is triggered; confirmed that the Crown can discharge its duty to consult through the project approval process undertaken by the regulatory body (including the National Energy Board (NEB), which for the most part had declined to assess how a project affected Aboriginal or treaty rights); and also illustrated how to, and how not to, discharge the duty. In our view, these decisions set out benchmarks for discharging the duty to consult, and while the duty to consult is the Crown's obligation, it is project proponents who are often left to carry out or bolster the consultation process. Without the duty being discharged, a project approval process cannot proceed, and therefore it is essential that the project proponent ensure the Crown's duty is discharged. This can mean paying for participation in the process by affected Aboriginal parties, for example, or providing the requisite information about the project to the affected parties so that consultation can be robust. Therefore, while the Court was clear that each situation should be viewed independently, the Court provides an illustrative roadmap for discharging the duty to consult, and in doing so has reduced some of the uncertainty plaguing Canadian project approvals. We expect these decisions to be parsed closely by project proponents,

to ensure that they have discharged the duty, as if it can be shown later that the Crown's duty to consult was not discharged, any project approval would be quashed on judicial review. Therefore the stakes in ensuring the Crown has discharged its duty consult are extremely high.

BACKGROUND Both the federal and provincial Crown owes a duty to consult indigenous populations whose Aboriginal or treaty rights are likely to be affected by a project approval. The duty arises from the Crown's assumption of sovereignty over lands and resources formerly held by indigenous peoples. The scope of the duty is measured on a continuum, from minor or shallow consultation, to deep consultation. The scope depends on the strength of the Aboriginal rights claim of the affected indigenous population, and the seriousness of the potential impact of the exercise of those rights. Each duty to consult is unique, as it is based on a particular set of rights and impacts. One way to ensure the duty to consult is satisfied is through the project's regulatory approval process itself. By ensuring meaningful Aboriginal participation in a process, and issuing a decision that is responsive to issues raised by affected Aboriginal populations, the Crown may well have discharged the duty to consult, depending on the breadth and depth of the scope of the duty. These two cases were likely chosen by the Court for their stark contrast, in order to illustrate how to, and how not to, discharge the duty. PROCESS FOR SATISFYING DUTY TO CONSULT

In these two decisions, the Supreme Court lays out an illustrative road map for satisfying the duty to consult. We have set it out below. Determine when the duty to consult is triggered – if the regulatory body has the power to make a final decision on a regulatory application, and that decision affects treaty or Aboriginal rights, then the duty is triggered when the regulatory process commences. Assess whether the regulatory tribunal has the power to satisfy the Crown's duty to consult – i.e. can the tribunal compel witnesses and issue decisions commensurate with the scope of the duty. If it does, and the Crown is relying on the regulatory process to satisfy the duty, it must be made clear to the affected indigenous parties that the Crown is so relying. We note that the NEB had not generally assessed how a project had assessed Aboriginal or treaty rights in its project approval process, and the Court shows here that in these circumstances it was well equipped to do so. Attempt to determine the scope of the duty by assessing the Aboriginal rights claim and the seriousness of the impact of the project on those rights. Proponents would be well-advised to assume that discharging the duty will require substantial effort and funds. Ensure that the Crown's obligation to consult is upheld in the specific tribunal process, through notification and active participation by affected Aboriginal parties in the regulatory process, provision of a written decision, and attachment of appropriate conditions to protect Aboriginal rights.

A. Duty Not Discharged and Approval Quashed: Clyde River In Clyde River, Petroleum Geo-Services Inc. (PGS) and others applied under the Canada Oil and Gas Operations Act, the legislation governing offshore exploration in the Arctic, to the NEB to conduct offshore seismic testing off the northeast coast of Nunavut as required. The proposed project contemplated towing airguns through a project area, to produce underwater sound waves, annually between July and November for five years. It was clear that the testing could negatively affect the marine mammal harvesting rights of the local indigenous population, the Inuit. Under the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement (1993), the Inuit of Clyde River ceded all Aboriginal claims, rights, title and interests in the Nunavut Settlement Area, including Clyde River, in exchange for defined treaty rights, including the right to harvest marine mammals. The NEB launched an environmental assessment of the seismic testing, and the Inuit of Clyde River and others filed a petition against the project with the NEB. The NEB held meetings in various surrounding communities to collect public comment, and representatives of the project proponents attended these meetings. Community members asked basic questions about the effects of the seismic survey on marine mammals, but the project proponents were unable to answer many of them, including which marine mammals would be affected by the testing. The proponents answered "That's a very difficult question to answer because we're not the core experts." Oral

hearings were not held by the NEB, and through the process the affected Inuit population filed letters of comment with the NEB, expressing concerns about the inadequacy of the consultation and about the testing generally. The proponents ultimately attempted to satisfy the Inuit's questions about the seismic testing by filing a 3,926 page document with the NEB, and having that delivered to the Clyde River offices. No further efforts were made to ensure the questions were answered, the document was not translated into Inuktitut (the Inuit language), and due to limited bandwidth on Baffin Island the document could not be downloaded. Subsequently the Inuit wrote to the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development stating that the duty had not been fulfilled, but could be fulfilled by a strategic environmental assessment. The Minister responded, disagreeing with the view that seismic testing should be put on hold pending completion of a strategic environmental assessment, and an NEB approval soon followed. The approval noted that marine mammals could be affected, but that the testing was unlikely to cause significant environmental effects, given the mitigation measures undertaken by the proponents. The Supreme Court's Analysis The Supreme Court analyzed the process undertaken by the NEB, found that the duty to consult had not been discharged and quashed the approval. The analysis proceeded in four clear steps. First, the Court found that the NEB approval process triggered the

duty to consult. Next, the Court found that the NEB had broad procedural powers to implement consultation, and the remedial powers to accommodate affected Aboriginal claims where necessary. Therefore the NEB's process could be relied by the Crown to completely or partially fulfill the Crown's duty – in our view, the NEB has historically not addressed aboriginal or treaty rights in its approval process. This is a bold statement by the Court, and it confirms that the NEB's robust process itself, if used appropriately, can be used to wholly or partially discharge the Crown's duty to consult. Third, the Court had no difficulty characterizing the required level of consultation as "deep", at the highest end of the continuum. In accordance with its previous jurisprudence, deep consultation requires "a strong prima faciecase for the claim is established, the right and potential infringement is of high significance and the risk of non-compensable damages is high". Here, there were established treaty rights that were at stake, as well as deep cultural attachment to marine mammals, and a significant risk that non-compensable damages would result. Fourth, the Court determined that the NEB's process did not discharge the duty to consult. The NEB could have required oral hearings and formal participation in the process, but instead only limited opportunities for participation were made available. There was no participant funding. The proponents did not answer basic questions going to the heart of the treaty right, and in the words of CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

the Court, "to put it mildly, furnishing answers to questions that went to the heart of the treaty rights at stake in the form of a practically inaccessible document dump months after the questions were initially asked in person is not true consultation." We question whether the outcome of this matter would have been different had the report been provided sooner and in an accessible format, along with capacity funding for expert review along with sufficient time for that review to occur. The proponents' failure to do so indicates their critical role in ensuring the Crown's duty to consult is met. B. Duty Discharged: Chippewas Enbridge Pipelines applied to the NEB to modify its Line 9 oil pipeline, reversing the flow of part of the pipeline, increasing its capacity and widening its specifications so it could carry heavy crude oil. The NEB held a public hearing, and 19 Aboriginal groups, including the Chippewas of the Thames First Nation, were informed of the proposed project and the NEB hearing process. The Chippewas of the Thames participated in the NEB process, and after their participation was com-

plete, wrote a letter to the Crown, asserting Aboriginal and treaty rights, outlining the project's potential impact, and stating that no Crown consultation had taken place. The Minister of Natural Resources responded after the NEB process was complete, stating that he would be relying on the NEB's process to fulfil the duty to consult. The NEB approved the project subject to conditions, some of which related to indigenous communities. It assessed the potential impact on Aboriginal rights as being limited, given that no new land would be acquired as a result of the project. Therefore, the NEB was satisfied that potentially affected Aboriginal groups had the opportunity to share their views through the NEB. The conditions required Enbridge to file an Environmental Protection Plan, an Ongoing Engagement Report and required Enbridge to include Aboriginal groups in Enbridge's continuing education plan. The Chippewas of the Thames appealed, stating that the approval could not be issued without the duty to consult and accommodate being met; the Crown and Enbridge

argued that the duty could be met through a regulatory hearing, and that the duty to accommodate was met through the conditions that were imposed. The Supreme Court's Analysis The Supreme Court went through a remarkably similar process as it did in Clyde River when analyzing the Crown's duty to consult the Chippewas of the Thames River. First, it held that the commencement of the NEB process triggered the duty to consult. Second, it held that the duty to consult can be fulfilled by a regulatory agency, provided the agency possesses the statutory power to do what the duty to consult requires in the circumstances. If the agency does not have the power or if it does not provide the adequate consultation and accommodation, the Crown must do so independently. As the NEB was the final decision-maker on this project, it was required to consider whether the Crown's consultation was adequate, and was therefore capable of satisfying the Crown's duty to consult. Third, while it did not specifically address where on the continuum

of consultation this matter fell, it found that the Crown's duty to consult was discharged by the NEB process. In doing so, the Court held that the opportunity to participate in the hearings was provided and taken, a written decision was issued recognizing the treaty rights, and suitable conditions were imposed. It also found that any potential impacts on the rights of the Chippewas of the Thames were minimal and could reasonably be mitigated, thus implying that the duty to consult was somewhat less onerous than in Clyde River. Finally, it found that the NEB had successfully balanced the treaty rights of the First Nation and the economic interests of Enbridge at the accommodation stage. Though the Crown failed to notify the Chippewas of the Thames that it intended to rely on the NEB hearing to discharge the duty to consult, and while the Chippewas argued that was fatal to the application, the Supreme Court found that they were provided with opportunities to participate, and did participate, in the process. Nevertheless, if project proponents wish CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

to rely on the regulatory process to discharge the duty to consult, they would be well-advised to advise affected parties in advance. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS These decisions confirm and clarify the process that project proponents and regulators should fol-

low to satisfy the duty to consult and accommodate. Parties may try to copy what Enbridge did in on Line 9, and will avoid the Clyde River process undertaken by PGS and its partners. Provided the duty is assessed, and robustly discharged, applications to quash coming up after the approval is issued seem

to have less chance of success. These decisions are very clearly and concisely written, and effectively show what to do, and what not to do. They therefore inject additional certainty into how the approval process should deal with the duty to consult –certainty which is more than welcome.

all-time favourite racer is Brian Nanticoke. Kanata Fuels sponsors her race wear – her fire suit, shoes, gloves and helmet. The event was focused on highlighting her strengths, skills, and talents she brings to the track. Road Racing Champion Jacob Ross was also on site, as well as Crate Sprint Racer of Ohsweken Speedway Brian Nanticoke with his very own car. Kanata also sponsors Brian’s fire suit. All were found enjoying the food, laughs, activities, and providing knowledge on the racing industry. All sponsors in addition to Kanata Fuels wanted to share this experience for those who may have low self-esteem, as racing rais-

es self-confidence and awareness. Sponsors aside from Kanata Fuels included Ross Motors, Caledonia Auto Supply, Caledonia Canadian Tire, and Davis Fuels. They look forward to hosting events like Racing for Diversity in the near future, that will bring the community together and celebrate kids. Thanks to Ross Motors, the kids that attended the event had a chance to enter to win a free day at camp, where there will be a Go-Cart track rented out just for the 12 winners. At this camp day, kids will be given advice on life, a free lunch, gift certificates of completion, medals, and a T-shirt with all sponsors involved showcased. There

will be more Ross Motor events coming up in the near future, and the 12 winners will be announced at a later date. The kids were also given a chance to play around on the bouncy castles and free face painting. Free giveaways such as Frisbees, candy, and Kanata tattoos were a big hit with the children that came as well. The brand-new Tim Hortons, that just opened a couple of weeks ago, received a lot of traffic, as well as Stan’s Fries. Stan’s featured a delicious deal for the day — a small fry and pop for $3, and they were busier than ever. Not to mention, all the sparkling clean vehicles coming out of Kanata’s KarWash.

The Life of a Great Mohawk By Doug George-Kanentiio

Some would say he was a great Mohawk; world class athlete, fearless high steel worker, expert fisherman, master carpenter and highly skilled craftsman with a rich command of his native language and strong opinions about the world. To his mother Wari:so:se he was Sohahiio, the “Good Road”, but to his non-Native friends he was Angus “Shine” George, my uncle, the greatest lacrosse player of his time, a powerful man who in his prime carried 225 pounds of rock solid muscle on his six foot frame. His great strength came from years of labor in the lumber camps of the Adirondacks whose dark forested mountains absorbed a boy of 12 in desperate need of a job to provide for his younger brothers and sisters. It was 1922 when my uncle took up the axe and crosscut saw. Like many young people, he did not have the option of continuing his few years of schooling. His father, my grandfather, had drunk his way into obscurity, selling the family home for a few dollars and a bottle of whiskey. Angus and his mother had come home from a long trek to town where they sold splint baskets by the dozen only to find out their house was sold. They spent a precious few dollars on a small frame house across the road from their former home and there Angus labored

Their possessions were few but they ate well with fish from the St. Lawrence River, vegetables from the garden and deer Angus shot with his .22 caliber rifle. No one went hungry among the Mohawks in those tough times; a family in need would have sacks of potatoes and smoked sturgeon on their doorstep, placed there by silent neighbours. During the winter months at the lumber camp Angus carried water and wielded his axe while his mother wove sweetgrass baskets or tended to the children.

When the snows melted they returned to the reservation to take part in the fish harvest, plant crops and send the younger ones off to school for a few weeks. Like all other Mohawk youths, Angus carried a lacrosse stick in his spare moments, twisting the hickory stick in his large hands, tightening the thick leather stings which formed a deep pocketed net for him to cradle a hard rubber ball. He realized he might have talent at the game when he took part in throwing contests at the local fair; as a teenager he hurled the ball with his stick farther than anyone else.

Six Nations Fall Fair returns to a simpler time By Jim Windle OHSWEKEN – The Six Nations Fall Fair will be taking on a new look for 2017. Actually it’s an old look, as organizers try to pull the longest running Native Fall Fair in Canada at 150 years, out of the ditch. In recent years past, debt upon debt, year after year put the venerable

agricultural fall fair in doubt of making its 150th anniversary. Six Nations Elected Councillor Marc Hill and a team of volunteers are hoping to bring the fair back from its death throws, by recreating the pattern from the days when the occasion was the biggest day of the year at Six Nations. Back to the future as it were. The new executive

began by returning the Fall Fair to, well, the fall. It had been changed to August for the past few years with the thought that more people might attend in the summer, and procurement of midway rides and games was easier before the usual Fall Fair season. Whatever the reason, it has not worked and attendance has been dwindling since the move.

The new committee began looking at 150 years of past fairs for ideas to revive the homey, friendly, agricultural nature the Six Nations Fair one had. “A fall Fair really should be in the fall,” said Hill. “Rather than in the heat of the summer.” Hill says securing a midway for the fair has been the biggest challenge organizers have faced this year.

The 1950 Six Nations Fall Fair featured horseracing as one of its biggest attractions. A new committee is looking back to those days to rebuild what was at one time, the biggest event of the year hosted at Six Nations by the Six Nations Agricultural Society. This and many other agriculturally relevant events will take the fair goer to a simpler time when the fair was the place to meet people and get re-acquainted after harvest season. FILE PHOTO We took over the Fair in February and it was in a bad situation,” says Hill. “We were very lucky that at the last minute we were able to book a small midway company and there will be rides and games.” But the committee has also added new events to mix with the usual. This year will feature a petting zoo and barnyard, the Masters Men’s Ball Tournament will be on during the Fair. “In past years, horse races were a big part of the fair,” says Hill. “This year we have brought that back after 15 years.” A trade show will be housed in the Arena along with the annual Miss Six Nations and Ambassadors contest, a legends show and various music acts. A monster Bingo is set for Sunday at the Community Hall. Cultural events will

also be featured, including a Smoke Dance competition. All and all, the 2017 Six Nations Fall Fair will be taking on an atmosphere perhaps a little more reminiscent of one hundred years ago. To kick it all off, Thursday night Sept. 7th, a free concert night with several local artists including Logan Staats, Lacy Hill, Jace Martin along with feature artists, DJ Shub, Anjulie and headliners, Junkhouse. Gate to the kick-off Concert at the Fair Grounds opens at 5 p.m. with the show beginning at 6:30 p.m. The address is 1738 Fourth Line Road, Ohsweken. Bring your own lawn chairs. This is a Zero Tolerance, no alcohol or drugs event. Although the show is free, donations to help cover the costs and rebuild the fair are greatly appreciated.

Angus George: The life of a great Mohawk continued from page 12 months of heavy axe work made it impossible to push him aside. He used his heavy shoulder muscles to brush opponents out of his way; they also gave him the power to hurl the ball at a target with bullet like speed. Lacrosse was a passion

in Canada during the first decades of the 20th century, with Natives players ranking as the best in the world. From its beginnings among the Iroquois hundreds of years ago, it had become Canada’s official national game. By the 1930s it was tailored to fit

in hockey arenas as a way of keeping the buildings full during the summer months. The Iroquois were quick to adopt to the speed and finesse of box lacrosse with Angus quickly rising to become a star player. He had offers

to play professional football and hockey but chose to stay with lacrosse. He was given a contract to play in Vancouver so at 21 years of age he boarded a train in Cornwall, Ontario for the week-long journey across Canada to the west coast. The money was good. There was enough for him to live well in British Columbia as a member of the North Shore Indians team and send funds home to care for the family. He enjoyed the acclaim as an athletic star and was honored to represent Canada’s Native people at the Los Angeles Olympics in 1932 despite having his game demoted to exhibition status. Angus might have stayed in California, taking on Native roles in the movies; he had offers but autumn was coming and he longed to return home, to the rivers and forests where he would be with his family, weaving ash splint baskets and telling enchanting stories in their warm cabins beneath the heavy snows.

Angus played the game for three decades then hung up his stick to devote his time to fishing, his woodshop and keeping a close eye on his beloved St. Lawrence. He thought and dreamed in Mohawk, reaching out to his mother and distant brothers who had left the reservation after the Second World War never to return. He did not care for the new ways and spoke bluntly, critically, of the latest generation of Mohawks who had lost language and knowledge when they were forced from the woods and waters in the development craze of the 1950s. Taken to a sterile hospital in his 82nd year after he became ill, Angus told his niece he feared losing his independence and wanted to go home. On January 8, 1992 Sohahiio was welcomed into the spirit world by Wari:so:se knowing he had done the best he could as a Mohawk human being.

SHINE

building self-esteem What Is Self-esteem? Self-esteem basically means what you think about yourself. Self-esteem can be high, low or even somewhere in the middle. Either way it plays a big part in your life. Low self-esteem could be related to loneliness, bullying, struggling in school, neglect or abuse, financial struggles or a million other things! It can be hard to figure out what contributes to developing low self-esteem but there are many ways to grow out of it!

SELF-ESTEEM LOOKS LIKE THIS

Positive Self-Talk If your inner voice is saying “I suck” you might begin to believe that. Changing negative self-talk can help delete thoughts that don’t belong and pretty much aren’t true. One of the characters in the film “The Help” said it best: “You is good, you is kind, you is important.” Stop Comparing Yourself To Others It’s natural to be a little dazzled when someone is operating in their element and they sparkle. It’s even healthy to admire someone, learn and be inspired by the things they do well. However it is not healthy to measure your own worth against other people. Sometimes it can even lead to jealousy. How can you defeat this negative mind loop of comparison? Find your niche. Everyone is good at something. What makes you SHINE? Exercise, Socialize And Have Fun Physically moving about can elevate your mood which can turn the tides when you’re feeling low. Getting together with friends and joining a club or team can also lift your spirits and put life into proper perspective. Carving out time to do things you find fun or relaxing either alone or with friends can also get you thinking right and builds self-confidence. Remember that developing a healthy self-esteem takes time and practice. You might not change your mind right away but keep up the good work and you might surprise yourself with what you’re capable of when you believe in yourself!

Believing that you are an OK person and that other people like you. Feeling relaxed inside. Feeling confident that you will be able to achieve things in life that you want. Feeling that it is worth trying to do things well. Feeling proud, satisfied and happy when you achieve the things you set out to do. Knowing you can make things happen in your life. Being able to think of creative ways to get around things that get in your way to success because you believe that you have the ability to achieve what you want. Noticing and enjoying your successes.

Court: Freedmen have right to citizenship By Sean Murphy, AP OKLAHOMA CITY — Descendants of black slaves, known as freedmen, who once were owned by members of the Cherokee Nation have a right to tribal citizenship under a ruling handed down by a federal court in Washington, D.C. U.S. District Judge Thomas Hogan ruled Wednesday in a long-standing dispute between the Cherokee Freedmen and the second-largest tribe in the United States which claims more than 317,000 citizens. ``The Cherokee Nation can continue to define itself as it sees fit,'' Hogan wrote in the ruling, ``but must do so equally and evenhandedly with respect to native Cherokees and the descendants of Cherokee Freedmen.'' Cherokee Nation Attorney General Todd Hembree said in a statement the tribe does not plan to appeal the ruling. ``The Cherokee Nation respects the rule of law,

and yesterday we began accepting and processing citizenship applications from Freedmen descendants,'' Hembree said. ``As the Attorney General, I see this as an opportunity to resolve the Freedmen citizenship issue and allow the Cherokee Nation to move beyond this dispute.'' Freedmen have long argued that the Treaty of 1866, signed between the U.S. government and the Tahlequah, Oklahoma-based Cherokees, gave them and their descendants ``all the rights of native Cherokees.'' There are around 3,000 freedmen descendants today. ``Nobody wants to have their rights unilaterally stripped away,'' said Marilyn Vann, president of the Oklahoma City-based Descendants of Freedmen of the Five Civilized Tribes and one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit that dates back to 2003. ``I think the judge made it clear that the freedmen people have rights just like the rest of the citizens have rights,

and we can't be removed at the whim of this chief or that chief. ``Going forward, I am hoping that the tribe will come together and we can just be Cherokees, Cherokee people and not freedmen ... and maybe we can become the most powerful tribe in the entire country.'' Cherokee leaders had argued the tribe has the fundamental right to determine its citizens. Under the ruling, Cherokee Freedmen would have all the rights that tribal citizens have, including the right to run for office, vote in elections and receive benefits, including access to tribal health care and housing. While many white Americans owned black slaves until after the Civil War, so did some Cherokee tribesmen _ but the practice generally ended with the 1866 treaty that afforded freed slaves the same rights as native Cherokees. Leaders of the Cherokee Nation, one of the

largest and most influential American tribes, have been trying to change that policy by declaring that the descendants should not be considered Cherokee citizens unless they can show proof of Indian blood. In 2007, more than three-quarters of Cherokee citizens voted to kick out descendants of freedmen and other non-Indians. While the ruling directly affects the citizenship status of more than 2,800 Cherokee Freedmen, an attorney for the group, John Velie, said there could be as many as 25,000 people who would now be eligible to apply for citizenship. ``The freedmen around the time of the Dawes Rolls were around 10 per cent of the members,'' Velie said, referring to the historical record created by the federal government to identify citizens of the Five Civilized Tribes. ``It's hard to guess, but I think all estimates are somewhere around 25,000.''

Maine museum preserves Native American canoe from 1700s By David Sharp, AP BRUNSWICK, Maine — One of the oldest-known Native American birchbark canoes will go on display at a Maine historical society museum, possibly as early as this fall. Carbon dating by the Pejepscot Historical Society in Brunswick shows the Wabanaki canoe was likely made sometime between 1729 and 1789. Museum records date the canoe to the mid-1700s. The Wabanaki Confederacy is a group of Native American nations who lived primarily in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and parts of Atlantic Canada. Larissa Vigue Picard, the historical society's executive director, says the Wabanaki artifact is ``priceless'' and could be the oldest birch-bark canoe in existence. Native Americans have been making these canoes for 3,000 years. But

Spirit Imagewear

only a few of the earliest ones still exist because birch bark is so fragile, says Laurie LaBar, chief curator of history and decorative arts at the Maine State Museum in Augusta. The Pejepscot Historical Society came in possession of the 16-footlong canoe in 1889. Museum officials say it was donated to the organization after being passed down through generations in the family of William Barnes, a sea captain from Harpswell, who received the canoe as a gift from a tribe. It's spent the last three decades in a barn behind the museum, exposed to extreme temperatures and humidity, but is in relatively good shape. A craftsman in Wellington will restore the 18th century vessel before it goes on display, situated in a specially crafted cradle.

From Sea to Sky: Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre By Chezney Martin

VANCOUVER – Within the beautiful landscapes full of mountains, blue lakes and seas live and thrive the peoples and nations of many diverse walks of life. From the Haida and Tsimshian to the Kwakiutl and Squamish Nation, the indigenous people of Vancouver have adapted to the changing world around them just as the Haudenosaunee have. And much like the Woodland Cultural Centre in Brantford, Ont., and its initiative to preserve and teach the history and legacy of the Haudenosaunee people and the impact of the Mohawk Institute, the Squamish Lil’wat (lihl-at) Cultural Centre opened its doors to do just the same.

tled in between Whistler and the Black Cove Mountains as this valley is considered shared territory between the Squamish and Lil’wat people. The two peoples have very distinct cultures and languages that are separate from one another, but instead of fighting over the valley to have one nation claim it, they decided to share the responsibility of protecting and caring for the land together. The Squamish people are descendants of the Coast Salish First Nation, who thrived while living near the ocean. The Lil’wat people are one of 11 communities and are considered to be Interior Salish. They are also known as a mountain community as the term Lil’wat translates to the “people of the land”.

But the relationship between these two peoples is said to have begun well over 1000 years ago, as the story of Spo7ez (spo-wez) explains. Spo7ez was a village shared by the Squamish and Lil’wat people at the confluence of the Cheakamus River and Rubble Creek in Whistler. After many years of respectful commerce, the villagers' attitudes shifted and they began to disrespect one another. This called for punishment from the Thunderbird, who is said to have beat his wings to cause a volcanic eruption from the stratovolcano the Black Tusk. This in turn created a massive rockslide that buried the shared village under rock and debris and took the lives of many villagers. This trauma caused

The Black Tusk stratovolcano is estimated to have erupted in the late Pleistocene Period around 20 thousand years before present, to early Holocene Period around 1800 thousand years before present. This story is still told today as evidence of the longstanding and peaceful coexistence of the two peoples, who formally agreed to live and work together in Whistler on March 22, 2001. The two peoples are known for using cedar heavily in both their infrastructures and pieces of clothing, but as colonization efforts took hold the art of canoe carving

from cedar was nearly lost. However, thanks to Master Carver Ray Natraoro — who spent years seeking advise from elders and researching historical records — the art was revived. A Salish hunting canoe is roughly 40 feet long, and the paddles used to move it in the water are surprisingly light-weight. This makes the movement of the canoe swift and simple with a team. Many different and unique weaving styles are used as well by both men and women to create baskets and hats using mediums such as cedar splints and bull rushes. On another end of the art spectrum, the Salish are also known for their blanket weaving. The patience

and time used by weavers to collect tufts of mountain goat fur to weave into yarn for the blankets is extraordinary, as the time it took to weave just one blanket could be up to 10 years. Although the weavers used a specific dog breed to help substitute for goat fur, the higher members of Salish society wanted blankets that used only goat fur. This patience has also transferred over into their efforts of cultural revitalisation and preservation — they have been working to bring their languages back to their youth with a fury as well. The beauty and extravagance of the landscape surrounding the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre is breathtaking, and the abundant knowledge to be learned is even more.

Movie review: Get lost in Dunkirk By TRT staff

Director Chris Nolan (Inception, The Dark Knight, Interstellar), brings forward a Second World War thriller documenting the evacuation of Allied troops from the French city, Dunkirk, before Nazi forces take over. Although billed as stars and co-stars, the characters portrayed by Tom Hardy, Kenneth Branagh and Mark Rylance all seem to take a spot in the back seat — together. No character in the film really outshines the other, and for the most part, unless you pay extremely close attention, the characters names aren’t mentioned more than once, or even at all; giving viewers a more realistic approach to what it may have felt like to be one of the Allied soldiers trapped on the beach. No more than just a number and statistic fighting for survival as they try and avoid Nazi forces. Actor Cillian Murphy (Batman Begins, Red Eye, The Dark Knight Rises), has a major role in the film and even he is only credited as “Shivering Soldier”. Directors of war or disaster movies in the past, like, Pearl Harbour (2001), and Titanic (1997), have made an effort to use big celebrity names to sell the story, or add love stories to a plotline that really didn’t need it. Nolan decided to use a few lessknown faces in the acting

world to really pull away from the ‘white savior narrative’ so prevalent in many of today’s western films. Nolan has never been a director to shy away from explosions and fancy videography, and remains true to himself in Dunkirk, released in July 2017. The score, provided by Hans Zimmer, is somewhat unnoticeable — maybe a sign of a job well done. There are times in the movie where the viewer is given dead silence with only the occasional gun-

shot, bomb, or airplane heard in the distance. Which makes for an eerie and almost awkward viewing. Without the constant crescendos and dramatic music to tell the viewer how to feel and when to feel it, the mood and tone of the film is left entirely up to the viewer. Are you nervous for the French army? Is there an ambush waiting just around the corner? Will the unnamed and unseen Nazi pilot take down the French plane in this dogfight?

Nolan also wrote the film’s script and if his intention was to alienate the characters from the audience, he was very successful. The overall colour scheme of the film is cold with a lot of blues of greys. Characters get lost in huge crowds, or disappear in clouds of smoke and fog often and it’s not easy to get attached to any of the characters on screen. You almost always feel bad for them, hopeless even that they may never get off the beaches. With Nazi forces dominat-

ing the skies, waters, and land all around the Allied forces, even if you know the true story of which the film is based, you feel like they’ve lost everything. For the most part, the film takes the viewers through three separate narratives. One, a fighter pilot trying to clear the air of German aircrafts that are trying to bomb the Allied rescue and medic ships, and destroyers. The second is the story of a civilian with teenage sons determined to sail to

the beaches in their own small boat and rescue as many of the soldiers he can. And the last follows a trio of soldiers trying to get from the perimeter of Dunkirk to the docks, so they can get rescued — avoiding Germans the entire way. Whether the story of Dunkirk is familiar to you or not, the plot, characters, awkwardness of the music and everything else it took a chance on makes for a very interesting and somehow entertaining yet sad experience.

The 2017 Presidents Cup will not come back to Six Nations By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS — The Can/Am Six Nations Slash hosted this year’s 2017 Presidents Cup Championships at the ILA and Gaylord Powless Arena this past weekend. After three days of back-toback Sr. B lacrosse action, it was the visiting Albert Minors from Alberta who loaded up the cup for the long trip home. The Six Nations Rivermen were determined to keep the prize that they lost last year after winning the 2015 National Trophy. For the Minors it was a repeat win after the Six Nations Rivermen and the Minors played for the gold Sunday before a large crowd at the ILA. After the preliminary games, St. Albert led with an 8-1-0 record followed by the Can/Am Champion Native Sons and the Six Nations Rivermen with identical 7-2-0 records. The Kahnawake Mohawks were next (5-4-0, St. Regis (5-4-0), the Ladner BC Pioneers (4-5-0) Saskatoon Braves (2-6-0 Six Nations Slash (1-7-0) and the Nova Scotia Privateers (0-8-0). Along the way, the Rivermen recorded a 20-4 win over Nova Scotia, 11-9 over the Native Sons, 12-4 over Ladner. In their first meeting of the tournament against the Minors, the Rivermen won 12-9 over the Minors. Then came a 10-6 decision over the St. Regis Braves. Kahnawake

handed the Rivermen its only defeat of the preliminaries, 15-7, Friday, Sept 1. The prelims were wound up with the Rivermen against the Saskatchewan Brewers. On Saturday morning, the Rivermen and the host Slash went nose to nose with the Rivermen taking the sweet end of a 19-3 win. Later that same day, they defeated the Brewers 12-3. In the medal round, the Native Sons doubled up on the St. Regis Braves, 10-5 to secure the Bronze. The 4 p.m. Gold/Silver game was exciting from the opening faceoff as last years President Cup winners, the St. Albert Minors and the 2015 winners, the Six Nations Rivermen fought for Str. B lacrosse supremacy. Alex Kedoh Hill opened and closed the fist period for the Rivermen with four Keegan Bal goals scored for the Minors in between, three of them on powerplays. Both goalies, Warren hill for Six Nations and Ryan Avery for St. Albert played extremely well in the second period but Richard Lachian scored unassisted for Alberta ay 17:07. With the score, 5-2 after 40 minutes, the Rivermen had to put everything they had on the floor and they did, opening the third with goals by Layne Smith at 1:34, Roger Vyse at 1:52 and Danton Miller at 2:44. To

even the score at 5-5 and put a lot of life back into the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena. Tyler Melnyk scored at 14:43 and Keegan Bal scored his fifth of the game at 18:23 for a two goal edge with time running out on the Rivermen. Layne Smith brought the Rivermen to within striking distance at 18:45, but Alberta controlled the ball the rest of the way to secure the 2017 Presidents Cup. Alex Kedoh Hill led the Rivermen attack with two goals and three assists. With Layne Smith contributing two goals and an assist.

Pro-Fit Chiefs fall to Lakers in Game 5 By Jim Windle

PETERBOROUGH – Tuesday marked the end of the road for the Six Nations Pro-fit Chiefs in their efforts to hold on to the Mann Cup. Instead, the Peterborough Lakers will face the best of the west, the New Westminster Salmonbellies, who will host this year's national senior A lacrosse championship. The Lakers 9-7 win over the Chiefs, Thursday night at the Peterborough Memorial Centre ended Six Nations campaign to repeat as Mann Cup Champions. But injuries forced the Chiefs to scramble and depend on call up players throughout the season, but without Cody Jamieson, who did not play this year, and Randy Staats playing injured, the Chiefs just did not have the horses to get by the Lakers. After falling behind three games to none, the Chiefs put themselves with their collective backs against the wall. They came up with a solid two periods in Game 4, and hung on as the Lakers

outscored the Chiefs 5-1 in the third period but could not get the game tying goal as Dillon Ward made several game savers including a penalty shot in the last two minutes of the game. Jordan Durston accounted for the game winner for the Chiefs. Dillon Ward earned the win in goal. That gave the Chiefs another day to overcome the gigantic obstacle between themselves and a shot at protecting the Mann Cup they won last season. Last Thursday, in Peterborough, the Pro-Fit Chiefs knew what they had to do, and they did that for two periods anyhow. Dillon Ward got the assignment in goal and played a fine game, but the Lakers were not to be denied. Holden Cattoni surprised the Rivermen 27 seconds into Game 5, but Jordan Durston and Randy Staats gave Six Nations a 2-1 advantage until 16:25 when Thomas Hoggarth evened the score at 2-2 after 20 minutes of play. It looked like the teams

The Six Nations Chiefs had one of those "if only" seasons battling injuries almost all season and finally succumbed to the Peterborough Lakers in the MSL finals, in Game 5. Vaughn Harris had a very good playoff scoring 13 goals and 14 assists in the post season. The Chiefs would like to thank all of its fans, volunteers and sponsors for their support this year.

would be tied at 6-6 after Shawn Evans, Zach Currier Adam Jones and Kyle Buchanan scored for the Lakers and Dhane Smith, Staats, Durston, and Kyle Jackson responded for Six Nations. But at 19:02, Currier scored Peterborough’s go-ahead goal to end two periods with the

Lakers ever-so-slightly ahead 5-4. When Adam Jones put a two-goal cushion on the lead, the Rivermen dug deep but could not get it done, hampered by two bench penalties, one for too many men and the other for delay of game. Brock Sorensen made it

9-6 and the clock became the Chiefs’ biggest enemy. Can Dawson pumped a little air into the Chiefs at 16:08 but there was not enough time or gas in the tank for the Chiefs to complete a comeback. Rivermen head coach Stu Monture was tossed from the game in the sec-

ond period for protesting a ref’s call just a little too aggressively. In the end, it was a game that either team could have won with just a little help from the lacrosse gods and on this given night, the Lakers got their nod and the Everett Coates Memorial Trophy. True to lacrosse superstition, the Lakers refused to touch the Trophy when accepting it from the league. “[In 2015] we ended up losing the Mann Cup and we had touched it,” explained captain Robert Hope. “This time we just let the commissioner handle it. He handled it, we got a picture and that was it. It’s an honour to win it, it’s a great trophy with a lot of history behind it but the one we want is — the Mann Cup.” The Lakers also claim a shot at the Western Lacrosse League champion New Westminster Salmonbellies for the Mann Cup, who will host this year's national senior A lacrosse championship starting Friday.

Jessica Henhawk had a chance to visit with family on Six Nations after her second lung transplant. SUBMITTED PHOTO “The doctors couldn’t stop the bleeding and found out that where the ulcers were, the skin was eroded and it wasn’t going to fix itself,” she explains. “It was life or death — the doctors said the procedure that they had to perform only had a 40 per cent chance of success and they did it because that’s all they could do and after four units of blood they pulled it off.” Although that post-operation procedure was successful, Jessica found herself faced with yet another complication. “After the second ICU, that’s when all my muscles went, everything was gone I couldn’t stand up, I couldn’t lift my arms up, it was just nothing,” said Jessica. “So, they [had] me sit up and do exercises, it was hard but I made it back down to ACU and then back down to the ward floor.” “I’ve been on a liquid diet and haven’t really eaten since May 20 so I’ve been starving,” she explains. “All the protein feeds they had me on made me sick but I needed to keep taking it to keep what was left of my muscles, so they had to lower the protein dosage

and they started giving me calorie supplements.” Jessica undergoes physiotherapy for 20 minutes every day and is on the wait list for the rehabilitation centre. “When I go to the rehab centre I could be there for three weeks or six months depending on progress,” explained Jessica. “I’m hoping not six months, I’m aiming for the least amount of time.” Though Jessica was faced with life or death she continued to fight and not give up knowing her family and community were doing the same thing. It has been about seven months since Jessica first went into the hospital for the second time to have her lungs transplanted and countless people have been working to raise not only money for her and her family, but to raise awareness about the struggles going on in the community. From Facebook groups to Go Fund Me campaigns to personal donations and even a radio spot that allowed her to share her story, Jessica has received nothing but support to help her while she fights to regain her health.

Jessica, having gone through this before, knows what to anticipate as the rehabilitation starts to pay off and as the various side effects of post operation medication sink in. “Since this isn’t my first time having my lungs transplanted I kind of know what to expect and it doesn’t scare me,” said Jessica. “Like I know what effects each medication will have and how hard it actually is to recover and I’m just prepared to do what I have to do to get better.” What Jessica wants people to know is that they are not alone when having to deal with the whole umbrella of situations that is having transplant surgery. She is starting to put together a package of materials outlining where all possible resources are and how to go about accessing them. “I remember the first time we came her for the first operation and we had no idea what to do or where to go because we were on our own pretty much,” said Jessica. “Having gone through this before we’ve been able to use our past experience to help us get assistance quicker and easier and we want to be able to share all this information with anyone who can use it.” Jessica’s strength, determination and an exceptional sense of humor has made her a symbol of hope for the community that surrounds her. Although she still has many more battles to face, we can rest assured that she will not stop fighting until she has nothing left to fight for.
