Hundreds gather for pizza and gaming at Day of Play in Ohsweken STAFF REPORT

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

SIX NATIONS — About 400 parents, grandparents and children came to the Gathering Place on the Grand December 28 for the TRT’s Day of Play.

The annual event puts a focus on family togetherness through gaming together as an act of decolonization in action.

Video game stations were set up with a running Super Smash Bros. tournament throughout the day.

Tables were filled with families playing table games, card games, colouring, building lego structures and enjoying some pizza and wings from Village Pizza.

“Way more people showed up than we were expecting,” said TRT Publisher Jonathan Garlow.

“The prize winners were really super happy.”

Garlow is an avid PC game streamer on YouTube and Twitch.tv as Jeex Trax Livestream where he often will live stream and guest host other Six Nations gamers.

“Video games gave me an opportunity to be good at something,” says Garlow.

“Back in the eighties video games definitely weren’t cool. But I’ve re-embraced my gamer identity.”

As part of the festivities,

Garlow built two custom gaming PC systems worth an estimated $4000. The computers were gifted to two youth on Six Nations through a random draw at the event.

The free event was

provided in part by funding through the Dreamcatcher Charitable Foundation.

Parents and caregivers shared that timing the event during the holidays was a good move.

“It’s nice to have something free and indoors to do with the kids after Christmas,” said a parent who attended the event.

“My kids were able to meet up with some friends from school and it’s nice to have a space like this that what their interests are and what they are proud of.”

She expressed frustration with the tendency of some who assume teens investing time and energy in video games is harmful.

“The amount of critical thinking that is required in those games is intense.”

In 2019 a study by researchers at Montreal's Sainte-Justine Hospital showed that while an increase in online screen time is connected to depression in teens — those who spend their time gaming did not.

Additionally the study showed that 70% of teens who do spend time gaming are socially connected to

other people playing online — which helps them avoid the social isolation linked to increased screen-time leading to depression.

“For me gaming isn’t an escape, it’s a competition,” said Garlow, “and now with the internet our distant communities can compete with each other.”

Thank you to our volunteers for helping us set up

and take down equipment.

Also, there are a few Totah's who arrived early and we have your prizes here at the office and will contact you soon.

TRT will host another Day of Play gaming event later this year. To volunteer or for more information contact info@tworowtimes. com.

Traditional ecological knowledge in music

Bringing Six Nations into a new decade NAHNDA GARLOW

nahnda@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

When landing with both feet in a fresh new decade it’s always nice to take a look back and see how far you’ve come.

In a previous issue, we called the 2010s the Decade of Indigenous Truth.

Due in part to the blessing of social media Indigenous stories often came front and centre in national indigenous news.

For the first time in history, indigenous stories were being told by indigenous people in mainstream media with cultural context offered so non-indigenous Canadians can understand.

On the one had it’s very nice to be able to connect with indigenous people around the world about our common struggles.

To empower one another with perspective and insight gained by being on the front lines of standing up to empirical powers trying to crush indigenous title to our traditional homelands.

On the other hand, those same support systems all too often become a confusing echo chamber where frustration with oppressive systems becomes prejudice and hatred towards individuals.

In fact, if you look at the media coverage in Canada on indigenous issues once again the mainstream is beginning to caricature our stories and get it wrong. What was once the broken Indian at the end of the trail is now being framed homogenous image of a broken aggrieved protester holding a flag

or sign.

Is that how they are beginning to see us?

That is why TRT is dedicated to bringing forward the stories of the diversity that makes Six Nations such an ace community.

We are so much more than broken Indians.

We are dieticians promoting indigenous food systems to bring sustainability to our communities. We are advocates bringing proper funding to First Nations children on reserves.

We are mothers reclaiming our bodies in pregnancy and delivering our babies in a traditional way. We are fathers overcoming the machismo culture of the 80s and 90s who are embracing our LGBTQ+ sons and daughters. We are grandparents who are finding new careers and value in the sunset season of our lives as language teachers and indigenous knowledge keepers.

Our indigenous women are more than potential victims. Our indigenous men are more than potential addicts. Our indigenous children are more than potential orphans.

As indigenous media, and especially at TRT where our editorial team is predominantly indigenous and female, it is up to us to bring forward your stories and help to tell them so that people begin to know that Six Nations is so much more than our history, and so much more than what the mainstream media thinks we are.

We are looking forward to making the 2020s another great decade in bringing forward the truth of our stories.

By The Conversation, The Canadian Press

This article was originally published on The Conversation, an independent and nonprofit source of news, analysis and commentary from academic experts.

Disclosure information is available on the original site — it has been condensed to meet word parameters.

Authors: Dana Lepofsky, Professor in Archaeology, Simon Fraser University; Alvaro Fernandez-Llamazares, Researcher in Ethnecology, Helsinki Institute of Sustainability Science (HELSUS), University of Helsinki, and Oqwilowgwa Kim Recalma-Clutesi, Contributor to the special issue on Ethnobiology Through Song/ CEO Ninogaad Knowledge Keepers Foundation/BOD APTN Academics are just beginning to see the deep significance of traditional songs and the knowledge they carry and some are working with Indigenous collaborators to unlock their teachings.

A recent special issue of the Journal of Ethnobiol-

ogy celebrates the power of traditional songs as storehouses of traditional ecological knowledge.

Nine articles are rich accounts of Indigenous Peoples' time-honoured music-making traditions.

The lyrics in traditional songs are themselves imbued with meaning and history.

In many Indigenous cultures, songs recount detailed biocultural knowledge and documents responsibilities.

Kwaxsistalla Wathl'thla was a trained Clan Chief, held four pa'sa chieftain seats, and among many other roles, was the keeper of hundreds of songs about the Kwakwaka'wakw people and more.

Potlatching was banned until 1951 and as a result, singing potlatch songs was a source of punishment and fear for many generations.

As one born to nobility and chosen since birth to be a conduit of key cultural knowledge, Kwaxsistalla Wathl'thla let us hear the words of his ancestors through the many songs he remembered.

For instance, in 2002,

he revealed an ancient ya'a (Dog Children song) that unlocked the mystery of lokiwey (clam gardens) on the Pacific Northwest Coast. Cultivating clams in clam gardens — rock walled terraces in the lower intertidal — is a widespread practice among Coastal First Nations. We now know this practice is at least 3,500 years old.

Kwaxsistalla Wathl'thla's sharing of this clam garden song unleashed a wave of research on traditional management practices and helped not only awaken people's understanding of indigenous knowledge, but also the foundation for research on how to improve clam management.

Kwaxsistalla Wathl'thla went on to mentor as the primary source on traditional ecological knowledge for over a dozen graduate students in ethnobiology and linguistics until his passing.

Despite the immense global value of traditional songs as libraries of ecological and other cultural knowledge, researchers and the general public have been slow to recognize their social and

cultural importance.

For instance, the findings of Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), highlight the importance of protecting and honouring Indigenous languages, but songs are not explicitly mentioned.

In many Indigenous cultures certain dialects, words and expressions are found only in certain songs, not in spoken conversations. Thus, protecting traditional songs is a critical aspect of protecting Indigenous languages.

The cultural importance of song was not missed by the Government of Canada and the churches who administered residential schools for more than a century.

They saw all Indigenous language, spoken or sung, as counter to the colonial government's mission to remove the ``savage'' from ``the Indian children.’'

The great uncle of Oqwilowgwa, one of this story's authors, died from a beating at the residential school in Port Alberni for singing a child's play song in his language. All music except hymns were strictly banned in residential schools until the 1960s.

nous families the practice is done as a way of “tying” babies and children to the physical world.

Small deer hide leather bracelets are attached usually to the left wrist, though some families tie both wrists or ankles. The bracelets are left on the child throughout their infancy until they fall off.

Among the Athabaskan peoples moose hide or beaver fur is used. Some Cree traditions tie bear fur bracelets around the wrists of their newborns.

Indigenous mothers from Central America practice a similar tradition by tying a bracelet of red

beads or seeds to their babies wrist to ward off the “evil eye” or negative energy.

The tradition carries a similar teaching among most nations: that infants and young children are closer to the spiritual realm. For that reason, it is common among several indigenous cultures to ‘tying’ young children to Mother Earth when a death has occurred in one’s family.

Pregnant mothers sometimes have their wrists tied for the duration of their pregnancy as well to protect the child and ward off sickness.

Changes to Six Nations of the Grand River public meeting schedule NAHNDA GARLOW

nahnda@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

OHSWEKEN — After a lengthy departmental review session, Six Nations of the Grand River council says they are changing the public meeting schedule in an effort to improve communications.

Starting January 2020 General Council will be reduced to two bi-monthly meetings — on the second and fourth weeks of each month.

The former Committee of the Whole has been dissolved and issues are being routed to two new dedicated committees: Finance and Political Liaison.

The finance committee will meet on the first and

third Mondays of each month starting at 9:00 a.m.. The political liaison committee will meet on the fourth Monday of each month starting at 9:00 a.m.. The political liaison committee will address situations that involve SNGRs ongoing political relationships with provincial and federal officials.

Departmental issues will be heard during SNGR’s Human Services, Building and Infrastructure, Corporate and Emergency Services and Justice Committees on rotating Wednesdays throughout the month.

SNGR has also determined that in order to carry out business with General Council, Finance and the Political Liaison committee — a quorum of 5 council members

plus the chair need to be present.

The changes are expected to streamline and expedite communications between departments and to the public.

The public meeting schedule changes are on an interim basis for the next few months while SNGR awaits the results of a final report on its departmental and external committees review.

Due to council’s holiday shutdown this month the schedule is shifted.

The first General Council meeting of 2020 is scheduled for Tuesday, January 14 at 6:00 p.m. at the Central Administration building in Ohsweken. The second General Council meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 28.

Sixth day of ongoing internet outage on Six Nations due to severed fibre optics NAHNDA GARLOW

nahnda@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

OHSWEKEN — First Nations Cable confirmed that Aecon-Six Nations construction workers cut through an underground internet cable on Friday, severing internet to First Nations Cable’s residential and commercial customers on Six Nations. The outage was remedied on it’s sixth day.

Initial estimates said the service would be repaired by Monday.

That was then extend to Tuesday afternoon. The services were returned by afternoon Wednesday.

First Nations Cable declined an interview on the matter.

The incident took place along Fourth Line, west of Chiefswood Road on the outskirts of the village of Ohsweken while A6N workers were digging to

connect a local residence to the main waterline.

In a statement to TRT, Jessica Hunt, Public Relations Specialist for Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation said A6N workers informed FN Cable on Friday of the cable being severed.

Darryl Hill, Superintendent of A6N, told TRT that prior to a dig all utilities are asked to submit location details of surrounding underground cables.

Hill said that FN Cable submitted incorrect location details to A6N, which is how the incident occurred.

Hill said that A6N offered to assist splicers working on the repairs to get the service back up and running as soon as possible — but says FN Cable refused the help.

This is the second time A6N workers severed the internet services cable.

Hill says the first time

A6N was liable for the error but says this time because FN Cable submitted incorrect information on their locate, A6N is not accepting liability.

According to Hill, information from the cable utility stated the fibre optic cable was located six meters off the edge of the shoulder of the road.

Hill said A6N workers hit the underground line four meters off the road.

Repair services for fibre optic cables are time consuming and costly due to the intricate nature of the work. Individual hair-like fibres within 72 cables needs to be fused back together by hand.

Damages for this incident are being estimated at $75,000, including costs for the six-day outage to surrounding businesses. The damages for the previous incident were $40,000.

Kindergarten registration open for Grand Erie STAFF REPORT

editor@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

Closing date for receiving applications: Friday, January 24, 2020 at 4:00 p.m.

BRANTFORD — Grand Erie District School Board’s online registration option is now open.

Children in the Grand Erie School Board area who will be four years of age by the end of 2020 are eligible to apply for admittance to junior kindergarten in September.

GEDSB says parents interested in the French Immersion program should be aware of the February 7, 2020 deadline to apply for a spot through a randomized selection process for new families.

Students who currently have a sibling in the program are guaranteed a spot, but registration is still required.

“January always brings a sense of excitement and new possibilities, so it’s a great time to start getting ready for the beginning of your child’s formal education,” said Linda DeVos, Superintendent of Education responsible for the Elementary and Early Years programs.

“Kindergarten is a time to

explore, learn, and grow, and Grand Erie is working to make this milestone a successful transition.”

Parents can visit Grand Erie’s website (granderie.ca) and click on the Kindergarten Registration banner for more information about the process, including identifying their child’s home school, which documents are required, and information about transportation, community resources, and before-and-after-school programs. Registration can be done in person at the child’s future school, or online, with the process completed through a visit to the school to verify documentation. Anyone requiring additional assistance can get in touch with their home school.

“Kindergarten classrooms across Grand Erie are vibrant, welcoming spaces where our youngest learners begin to build positive relationships, problem-solving skills, and a strong sense of themselves in the world,” said De Vos. “We look forward to welcoming our newest students and families.”

Her Water Drum, film by Six Nations filmmaker to be screened at Laurier CHEZNEY MARTIN

chezney@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

There has never been a better time for indigenous people to tell their own stories — this is a sentiment that Tuscarora filmmaker Jonathan Elliott understood well when he ventured to capture a film he titled Her Water Drum.

The film deals with the topic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in Canada, highlighting the impact that it has on individual families and their

communities, something Elliott strove for.

“Using film, as not only an education tool, but as something to tell stories through is so important,” said Elliott, as he began to explain the topic of his film.

“It’s pretty hard to avoid the topic off Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls, and it is something that has been on my mind for a while because there’s so much stuff that you see in travelling around.”

By travelling throughout Canada, Elliott said that he came across many people

that shared stories of how a loved on was lost or murdered, and the stories “began to strike home.”

“While there’s a lot of news coverage of the issues, it’s kind of just letting it stay in the news and I felt like there were opportunities to use film as an introduction and educational conversation starter tool to an audience who maybe otherwise learn about it, or know about it.”

Thus the storyline was born.

The film brings the tale of Jolene, a single Mohawk mother in the wake of her

daughters disappearance to life. He story continues as she is forced to pick up the pieces of her life and navigate an increasingly strenuous relationship with her troubled son David. As secrets emerge, their relationship faces its toughest challenge yet as they confront the reality of their situation.

Elliott said that this fictional story is one that is timely and is an accumulation of communal opinion, as he reached out to family and community members to help enrich the storyline with their ideas.

“I took those commonalities and used them as a basis as a script,” he said.

“But when you’re making a short it’s very hard to compress everything into a 10-15 clip.”

He explained that the concept of the title came from the significance of traditional singing to the characters, as the water drum is used by the family to teach songs. The significance of the water drum to Haudenosaunee culture is that it is the only drum of its kind in the world and has been used to sing Esganye which is a series of songs sung by men to honour the women.

“The water drum just had a lot of significance for everybody in the film and it kind of ties into the relationship the mother has with her son because her daughter was teaching her

“This object was the last thing that they could hold onto that was distinctly hers.”

The screening will take place on January 15 at 7 p.m., within the Laurier Campus at the Wilfred Laurier Research and Academic Centre, 150 Dalhousie St, Brantford location and is hosted by Friends & Neighbours of Save the Evidence.

Elliott said that he will attend the screening with others involved in the production of the film to answer questions and offer more information about it.

OHSWEKEN—Heading into 2020, there is plenty of excitement and high expectations for the Six Nations Arrows.

Following what was their second straight first round playoff exit against the St. Catharines Athletics, the Arrows organization took the first step in rebounding by holding on Thursday, January 2nd Day 1 of training camp at the ILA followed by the Six Nations Arrows Awards Banquet.

“It’s championship or bust. Our ultimate goal every year is to win the Minto Cup,” Arrows General Manager Jake Henhawk said.

Prior to announcing the team award winners, Henhawk gave special praise to graduating players, which included quite a large number from the 1998 birth year, “Not every year do you get a group like that out of Midget who can produce

TWO ROW TIMES

BRANTFORD--- No doubt playing in the Wayne Gretzky International Hockey Tournament was a huge thrill for the Brantford 99ers Novice MD 3 team which they will never forget.

“They were super excited to play at home in front of fans representing the 99ers,” Brantford

coach Matt Gibbons said.

“Their skating has really improved and they were playing as a team and playing well positionally.”

Getting their moment to shine, this Brantford MD Team 3 squad got to showcase their developing skills when from Friday December 27th through to the 30th they competed in six grueling games at what was a packed Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre.

“There were a lot of high caliber teams,” Gibbons

said. “We rose to the challenge. This is all about development, having fun and challenging the kids.”

Among those players wearing a big smile after Monday morning’s final game against the Waterloo Wolves was 7 year-old Gryffin Francis who was awarded player of the game.

“I felt happy,” Francis said. When asked what he liked best about playing in the tournament Gryffin smiled before replying, “Making friends on the team.”

What served as a real big highlight was the fact that every player received a medal as there was no keeping track of scoring or wins and losses.

“I hope that every time they play, that they develop a love for hockey,” Gibbons said.

Also being awarded earlier with player of the game was Knox Gibbons who was all smiles when asked about what he liked best about the tournament.

Rivermen receive Presidents Cup Championship rings NEIL BECKER

neil@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

OHSWEKEN - Following months of anticipation, the Six Nations Rivermen finally experienced the thrill of receiving their Presidents Cup Championship rings.

In what was truly a magical summer, the Rivermen thrilled fans by embarking on a historic playoff run which saw them make franchise history by celebrating on September 1st. in Kahnawake QC a 9-5 Presidents Cup win against the Akwesasne Bucks.

“I was very excited for this ring because it was my first one,” Rivermen forward Gates Abrams said. “This is my number one accomplishment for sure and I haven’t taken it (ring) off yet.”

Celebrating that historic moment, the Rivermen met on Sunday, December 22nd at MontHill Golf& Country Club where they re-lived the magical season which led

them to their first Presidents Cup since 2015.

Among those who played a big role in helping deliver the Presidents Cup was forward Marshall Powless who after his season ended with the Six Nations Rebels, joined the Rivermen on their quest.

“It was really an honor to get called up to play with them,” Powless said. “I was so excited because this was the first ring I’ve ever won, and I definitely tried it on before anyone else.”

Powless, who notched two points (1 goal, 1 assist) in that deciding Presidents Cup championship game also went on to add, “The championship game was the best by far. Not only because we won but because I got to work with my brother Johnny for the first time, and just all the stuff we practiced at home was finally put to the test.”

Following regular season, the Rivermen marched through the playoffs where they defeated the Owen

Sound North Stars three games to one, in what was a best out of five before defeating Oakville Titans in four and qualifying for Presidents Cup play.

When asked about the playoff run highlights Abrams was quick to respond, “The brawl against Owen Sound (Game 1 of series) and scoring three -straight to send us to Game 4 of the finals against Oakville.”

Continuing to dominate the Rivermen made a statement during Presidents Cup play as they began with three straight wins before playing to a 12-12 draw against the Snake Island Muskies.

After following that up with three more straight wins, Six Nations suffered their only pitfall as they lost on August 31st a 14-6 decision against the Akwesasne Bucks, before winning the following day the franchise second Presidents Cup. “This was a really big honor,” Powless said.

Six Nations Snipers looking for first win NEIL BECKER

neil@tworowtimes.com

TWO ROW TIMES

HAGERSVILLE - They might not have gotten the win, but Six Nations Snipers coach Darcy Powless was strongly encouraged by what he saw.

After starting the ALL season with consecutive loses, Six Nations looked to get on track but after a fast start fell short as they dropped on Sunday, January 5th, a 15-12 decision at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena against the Oshawa Outlaws.

“We started out great,” Powless said. “I’m glad we finally had a full team show up. We made some trades last week and added four new guys to our line-up.

Plus some guys couldn’t commit to playing till after the new year.” Powless went on to add, “We’re not panicking yet. Once everyone gets comfortable with each other we’re gonna be alright. We just need to get as much time as a group as we can.”

After starting the season with a 10-3 loss against the Toronto Monarchs followed by a 13-7 loss to the Paris River Wolves, Six Nations were facing an Outlaws team who were also looking for that first regular season win.

Taking charge early, the Snipers thrilled the ILA faithful by scoring consecutive goals from Chayton King and Jordan Goddard for a 2-0 lead.

“We started out great,” Powless said. “We had a

bad third quarter. We came out for the second half and got outworked for one period and that was the difference.”

Oshawa answered back with consecutive goals of their own to knot things up at 2-2 heading to the second quarter.

Early in the second Six Nations regained the lead as Tye Argent scored before minutes later Oshawa once again answered back in tying things up at 3-3.

Both teams continued to trade goals as Snipers Danton Miller and Vern Hill scored less than two minutes apart as Six Nations once again found themselves leading.

Showing that strong character Oshawa came through with consecutive goals before Snipers’ Brent Longboat scored the goahead marker which with only 34 seconds left in the second, made it a 6-5 lead for Six Nations.

“We played well for being the first game with some of the new faces we have on our roster,” Longboat said. “We’re still kind of working on gelling as a team but we finally had a game where we were putting the ball in the net moving the ball well on offence.”

Oshawa managed to tie things up in the third when Six Nations offence clicked for consecutive tallies from Pierce Abrams and King with his second for an 8-6 lead.

Six Nations couldn’t build off the momentum as Oshawa for a third time overcame a two- goal defi-

cit as they scored twice in a little under two minutes to make it a brand -new game.

Oshawa’s offence caught fire as they finished the third with another four straight goals as they took control with a 12-8 lead heading to the fourth.

“We came out flat to start the second half. We were outscored 6-2 in the third quarter,” Longboat said. “We dug a hole to deep to get out of and penalty trouble. They capitalized on their power play opportunities and our mistakes.”

The Snipers finished strong as they connected with four fourth period goals from Alec Tamas, Justin Martin, and consecutive tallies from Kyle Isaacs and Mike Mclaughlin.

Despite the loss, there is a lot of optimism coming from the Snipers organization.
