Business on Six Nations in limbo as unfinished health and safety regulations leak Elected Council struggling through technical difficulties, shifting power dynamic NAHNDA GARLOW

TWO ROW TIMES

OHSWEKEN — Six Nations of the Grand River Elected Councillors took turns lunging at each other during Tuesday’s General Council meeting, held via Zoom conference, discussing how an unfinished version of the pending Health and Safety Code of Conduct found its way to a local newspaper. The internal bickering overshadowed the real pain community members and local businesses are enduring as Six Nations walks through it’s eighth week of emergency shut downs, traffic restrictions and a loss of customers that some business owners fear may lead to a permanent loss of business. A pending Six Nations Health and Safety regulatory framework for businesses to re-open with pandemic protections in place were published in the Turtle Island News last week detailing an email conversation among council members and the lawyer hired to draft the regulations, what those new rules would look like and when they were expected to be implemented - including consultations held with local businesses. TRT reached out to SNGREC for comment and
they confirmed that TIN reporting was accurate, but say the details within the article reflected an “early draft” of the regulations. SNGREC confirmed there is an updated version of the regulations now under review. A source told TRT the council were ‘shocked and disappointed’ the details were released to media in that fashion and say an internal review of the council members email accounts was initiated to see who breeched confidentiality - but that it came back with no answers. Six Nations Elected Chief Mark Hill was absent from the discussions as he faced technical interruptions preventing his participation in the meeting. Councillor Michelle Bomberry took over duties as chair for the duration of General Council in Hill’s absence. Six Nations Elected Councillor Helen Miller scolded fellow council members saying she sent an email on April 16 alerting that a leaked copy of the regulations was being distributed to local businesses. Councillor Wendy Johnson responded by alleging that the draft leaked was not prepared until April 22 and that the sub-committee working
on the regulations hadn’t even seen the document by April 16. Wendy Johnson said that while the regulatory draft is not a secret document - that the business community deserved to see a completed version that had been through full discussion at council. Johnson said she was concerned that businesses deserved to be involved in the discussions surrounding health and safety regulations and that whomever shared the information prematurely had cast a negative shadow unnecessarily onto a positive act the council was taking to protect Six Nations businesses, community members and visitors who enter the community. Local business owners, speaking to TRT, say they are willing to be compliant to the new regulations SNGREC is rolling out but are becoming frustrated they have remained in a holding pattern for so long with no updates on where things are at. Kathy Mair, special assistant to Elected Chief Mark Hill, expressed concern that senior administrative officials had not even been permitted to see drafts of the regulations — while local media were able to obtain copies of the internal documents. Councillor Hazel Johnson expressed frustration
that the council had been blindsiding one another in front of media during open sessions of council meetings via Zoom in recent weeks — and said she was similarly upset when Councillor Nathan Wright presented news about the police commission review during an open session of council without prior approval from the rest of the council members. Councillor Miller accosted Nathan Wright again saying he should not have brought the police commission review out in the public session of general council. Councillor Michelle Bomberry interjected saying the council agreed during a previous closed session to bring the issues surrounding the police out into an open session to be accountable to the community. A source told TRT that the council is facing massive internal disputes. Less tech savvy council members are struggling to carry on through physical distancing protocols as the council relies on technology to conduct business. As a result, councillors struggling with technological literacy or internet access issues are racing to catch up to others at the table which is creating a two-tiered power dynamic of those in
the know and those being left out of the loop. This was confirmed during Tuesday’s open session when one council member said they received calls from concerned community members worried that this council may not last the rest of 2020 if internal distress can not be resolved. Councillor Melba Thomas said it is not in the best interest of the council to speak against one another, that they are there to do business for the community and that community members do not need to hear internal differences play out in the open session. “We are going to be losing confidence with the community,” said Thomas. Johnson brought the issue back to the leaked documents, saying that the issue is not with the reporting but that high level documents were being disclosed without approval. All council members were at a loss with how to proceed with ensuring there are no further leaks. No official copy of the health and safety regulations was available for community distribution and no update about when community businesses will be able to return to business.

Plumbing before reopen BRANTFORD — The City of Brantford is warning business owners to flush building plumbing systems to remove stagnant water from pipes. The Canadian Water and Wastewater Association has released a guidance document on how
to assist property owners and business managers to rehabilitate plumbing systems before reopening to the public. Water sitting stagnant as a result of lower occupancy due to pandemic restrictions can pose a risk to human health.

The Covid-19 virus has taken tens of thousands of people globally and placed more than a million in need of medical attention across Canada, but it had also already taken many small businesses. The Paris Star news has been an important part of growing up in rural Brant for generations has announced the end of its print edition, in stead, swinging over to the much cheaper to produce e-edition. The decision to abandon the print side of the business comes after the dou-
ble whammy of an already changing landscape with the perfection of a much cheaper to produce e-edition publication in stead. Then came the COVID-19 pandemic which has pretty well frozen the economy especially for small independent business’ who would normally be advertising in local papers. Although the Star has been in the fold of the Expositor for years, it always printed separately for its more localized merchants and readers. Last week the Star announced it would be ceasing its print edition in favour of an e-edition. The move follows a trend that has been showing itself across the
industry, especially in smaller communities. The immediacy of cable news and online news brings information directly to the consumer expediently. Although online news has been anticipated by most print news outlets for the last decade or more, until now, it has been impractical, but today, nearly every home has a computer or a smart TV and most have mobile phones eliminating one of the biggest costs of running a newspaper, the paper and printing costs. Today, the multimillion dollar presses are beginning to feel the pressure of dwindling circulations and must change with the

Man convicted of child rape to be sentenced STAFF REPORT

TWO ROW TIMES
OHSWEKEN — Sentencing for a convicted child sex offender from Six Nations has been put over to May 26. On January 23, a Wisconsin court found Hayehe:s Matthew Joseph Myke, 35, guilty of Repeated Sexual Assault of Same Child (At Least 3 Violations of 1st or 2nd Degree Sexual Assault). He has been immediately taken into custody. Sentencing for Myke was originally slated for March 2020 but was postponed. The assaults took place in 2013. Myke was taken into custody where he remains awaiting the sentence — which officials
say could be as high as 40 years in prison. Myke was scheduled to appear in an Ontario court on various driving related offences in St. Catharines in March. Myke’s lawyer told the judge that he was unable to attend court and said the the driving charges were “the least of his concerns”. Myke is originally from Six Nations and was hired by at least one school and one historical site in the community after his 2016 arrest — teaching Haudenosaunee traditions, songs, dance, and ceremonies to children as late as 2019. He was being considered by traditional leaders in the community for a role in political leadership. It is not known if the traditional leaders were aware of the charges he was facing.

Outrage over body bags sent instead of medical supplies CHEZNEY MARTIN
editor@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
I have always had a lingering disgust with Winnipeg in regards to how they speak of, view and look down upon their indigenous people and it is ongoing. In 2009, Ottawa sent body bags to Manitoba, Ontarios neighbouring province, reserves instead of medical supplies. If you can think back that far, you should remember that this was during Swine Flu. Chief Jerry Knott of Wasagamack First Nation said his community's nursing station received about 30 body bags and it was disturbing because the community asked for funding so that they could prepare medical supplies during the H1N1 outbreak. Later, indigenous leaders in Manitoba were horrified that some of the reserves hardest hit by swine flu in the spring received dozens of body bags from Health Canada. It was later questioned if the shipment held a sinister message. The body bags — which were sent to the remote northern reserves of Wasagamack and God's River First Nation — came in a shipment of hand sanitizers and face masks. Grand Chief David Harper, who represented northern First Nations, said the body bags sent
the wrong message and no one could understand why Ottawa would do such a thing. And guess what? History repeats itself, but this time, across the border. In mid-March, as the Seattle region grappled with the coronavirus outbreak, a community health centre that cared for the area's indigenous population made an urgent request to county, state and federal health agencies for medical supplies. What they received three weeks later left staff members stunned and turned most of them white because they were given cadaver body bags, not the requested supplies. As per May 5, the health board's centre — serving about 6,000 people a year in Seattle and King County — still had the package, which is filled with the zippered white bags and beige tags that read "attach to toe.” This happened even though the U.S. government has an obligation to provide health care to all Native American nations as stipulated in longstanding treaties with Indian tribes. The Treasury and Interior departments announced the distribution Tuesday of $4.8 billion to tribal governments, divvied up based on their census figures. However, “urban Indian” programs are not part of this phase. The stimulus money was expected to be
released before the end of April, as mandated by the law, but a legal feud erupted when tribal governments denounced the idea that Alaska Native corporations, which are for-profit businesses that serve tribal villages, would be allocated some of the funding. While the Seattle Indian Health Board has the PPE and supplies it needs as of now, staff representatives said that they were disappointed in the lack of aid in those crucial, earlier weeks and have since relied on Native-owned business such as the retail brand Eighth Generation in Seattle for donations to adequately fill the void. In the states, citizens of colour are at risk for Covid-19 at a rate that is four times higher. And in mid-March, Seattle was at the centre of the US coronavirus outbreak. They had more than 500 positive cases and around 50 deaths. Indigenous communities are also ripe with elders, the main age-group that is susceptible to the most damage that can be brought by Covid-19, and the most precious as they serve as indigenous language and knowledge carriers. With $450 billion in the U.S., Indian trust fund at any given time, you’d think they could at least send some face masks. I continue to be disgusted.

The real treasure of Oak Island JIM WINDLE
jim@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
NOVA SCOTIA — The TV reality series “The Curse of Oak Island” has become the most watched show of its kind on cable television today after completing its seventh season and 111th episode. Man made artifacts found deep within the ground as well as strange markers carved in large rocks strategically placed around the island have been dated as far back as the 1100’s. The finds are proving that what is now
Canada’s east coast, was known by some European and Scandinavian explorers long before 1492. Oak Island has yet to give up its legendary treasure of vast amounts of templar gold, historical items from the holy land or even the lost manuscripts of Sir Francis Bacon. The most important finds so far are not so much the old picks and mining gear from earlier treasure hunters and whoever hid it deep in the bowels of this small island, but rather the dates of these finds as affirmed by the University of Halifax and other recognized specialists.
That would also strongly suggest contact with the indigenous peoples of that area happened long before previously known. Other tantalizing finds made by the Lagina Brothers and the Oak Island research team dated to the early to mid-1700’s. This period points to the building of an elaborate booby trapped pit some 120 feet down. This most recent search is by far the most extensive, expensive and elaborate attempt to solve the Oak Island mystery. Although not solid at this time, the series is expected to continue in the fall with season eight.

People have been trying to tear her down ever since they saw her potential and she started receiving PR packages. Everyone makes mistakes in life and her true supporters know she did not mean anything wrong with what she said. If you support Bianca I hope you will sign this in
hopes of letting Morphe know she still has more supporters than people that do not like her. It’s not fair to bash people the way they are bashing her for an opinion she stated. We all live and learn and are still learning everyday. She is a very talented woman and amazing mother and has worked very hard to get where she’s at. Thank you to those that still support her.” On May 6, White Feather posted a partial screen capture of an apology,
following an update to her petition: “Bianca posted this apology then a day later posted a picture to her Instagram (IG: biancalovesmakeup91) throwing up the middle finger "fun fact when ever I'm taking my makeup selfies I also do one giving the camera the pa los haters" on the day Indigenous people honour MMIW. It's a bit ironic on when her middle finger photo was posted. Clearly her apology was not sincere.” On the same day, “T Tal-
da” posted: “Morphe pulled her curation from their website. That'll teach her a lesson in going viral. It can go either way.” A circulated screen capture allegedly posted by Linares also included: “You are complete clowns. Best believe, this will never affect my career. Keep trying. Jealousy is a disease. Your fake content, and photo shopped comments are comical though, I must say.

Bianca Linares, (biancalovesmakeup91), who creates make up looks for over 500,000 followers on Instagram, has received backlash in the past week over comments made about indigenous women. “I am addicted to all things makeup,” reads her bio. Watching the Instagram live posted by Debbie Derrick, Linares makes comments about not wanting to live on reserve because indigenous women “get murdered there and they don’t solve the murders, women go missing an they don’t do anything about it.” “I don’t want to get raped or killed,” she said. She also made comments about not being able to visit the casino and that She has since disallowed the comments section on her instagram posts. Sasha White Feather later began a petition in response which has gathered 150,374 with a goal of 200,000 to remove the instagrammer as an ambassador with Morphe Cosmetics. “As some of you are aware of what has hit social media in regards to Bianca (IG: biancalovesmakeup91) and her uneducated racial slurs towards the Indigenous population. Bianca went to apologize for her comments but, a day later
post the middle finger on her instagram page on the day Indigenous people around the world honour MMIW. One of her comments include "go missing and get murdered why don't you" among others. Bianca has since deleted this photo but it can be found circulating the internet as well as the original video from where it all started. Biancas comments are hurtful and promote racism towards Indigenous people. It's never okay to be a public figure let alone be attached to a successful cosmetic line such as Morphe. Bianca thinks what she said is a joke, as an Indigenous woman who fights for Indigenous people daily, Morphe should drop all connections with her. We need to let her and other people know it is NOT okay to be racist to ANY race, especially when you’re a public figure.” In response, Myk Gonzales started a petition to Morphe to counter White Feathers, with 4,440 signatures out of a goal of 5,000. “Bianca Linares @beautybybianca made a very small comment on her live about indigenous woman and someone who dislikes her tried to twist her words and make her look like she meant to say something negative when in all reality she was just stating an opinion about how she feels regarding living on a reservation from what she has heard from others.

Keep sharing, thanks for the recognition. - Bianca Garcia-Linares (Beauty by Bianca). Alyssia Lonetree also posted to Morphe saying: “I would like to strongly suggest you drop all sponsorship of Beauty by Bianca. After she made disrespectful remarks about missing and murdered Indigenous women followed by a video saying it was still good for her brand. She also made an insincere apology followed by a flipping off selfie
on #MMIWawareness day. Then telling an indigenous follower ‘to go missing and get murdered.’” “I believe Morphe wants more for their brand. I believe your brand wants to empower individuals and Bianca Linares is a representation of the opposite. Making jokes about an issue that is very devastating to the indigenous population.” Visiting her instagram page now will allude to none of this, however. You can find White Feathers’ petition at www.change.org.
In reality, many indigenous women are under the statistical thumb pushed upon them by stereotypes and fetishization, making them a target not generally on reserve, but to predators off reserve. A reason is that leads that forensic workers turn to as prime suspects are generally friends and family, thus their cases don’t get solved because there are no typical leads when an indigenous woman is assaulted, murdered or stolen off-reserve.

COMING SOON — Taika Waititi will direct and co-write a new Star Wars movie for theatrical release, Disney announced. It won’t be Waititi’s first brush with the Star Wars universe; he directed the season finale of The Mandalorian, the hit Disney Plus creation that brought us Baby Yoda. He also earned an Academy Award for his screenplay for Jojo Rabbit and directed Thor: Ragnarok. Rumors of a Waititi-helmed Star Wars movie first surfaced in January, though it’s unclear if this movie is the same that is under-development with Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige. Krysty Wilson-Cairns, who co-wrote the screenplay for 1917, will join Waititi in co-writing the new Star Wars film. Wilson-Cairns PHOTO OBTAINED BY TRT will be the second woman to co-write a Star Wars movie.

Six Nations Rising Stars basketball recap NEIL BECKER
neil@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
Without question, the popularity of basketball has taken off in Six Nations. This past season, Six Nations sports fans witnessed sports history as they packed the Dajoh: Youth and Elders Centre in anticipation to watch the expansion Six Nations Rising Stars U12, U14 and U17 teams make their basketball debut. Rising Stars Academy’s own Matt King, who acted as head coach for all three teams, was full of high praise when reflecting on his team’s overall accomplishments, starting with the U12 team who showed drastic season long improvements. “I saw them score more and they were able to make more layups,” King said. “In the first game they only had six points, but in the final game they had 40 points. They were also turning the ball over
Six Nations U14 coach Matt King was strongly encouraged by the drastic improvements he saw from his U14 Rising Stars team. The high points to the season was a 33-32 win against Norfolk. "I saw big improvement and saw lots of potential.” PHOTO BY NEIL BECKER
less.” Overall, the U12 Six Nations basketball team, which had 11 boys and 1 girl, finished the season with a respectable 2-2 record. “The focus is having them understand the basics, rules, and teamwork,” King said. In getting game experience, the U12’s played games against teams from three regions of Haldimand, Norfolk and Hamilton. With the U12 and U14 Six Nations teams, the
season went from September to March where they not only played games but also had some intense, fun practices. “Every practice we had a game,” King said. “We want to make it fun. If you put in the practice, you’ll see improvement and that’s what I saw.” Meanwhile the U14 Six Nations squad, who were also comprised of 11 guys and 1 girl, posted a 2-7 record, but were playing against players who had
tournament win as well as winning the Zone 9 girls.” Riding the momentum of that tournament win, the Six Nations Intermediate 1 girls continued to roll as they once again celebrated gold when on Sunday, July 7th, at the Gaylord Powless Arena, they pulled off a 3-1 championship win against Orillia to win the Six Nations Girls lacrosse tournament. ‘We improved a lot with working our plays,”
Six Nations player Lauryn Hill said. “Especially our powerplays. There were a few games where we put in a few with a good play.” Unfortunately, this year, due to the COVID19 pandemic, the Intermediate 1 Girls and the other Six Nations minor lacrosse teams won’t get a chance to play as the difficult decision was made to officially cancel the season. “As hard as it was to cancel the season, we really
three or four years of basketball playing experience. “I saw big improvement and saw lots of potential,” King said. “We have a lot of good athletes and I’m really looking forward to next season.” Unfortunately for the U17 team, with the team holding a 4-5 record, their season was officially cut short due to COVID-19 . “We were definitely disappointed,” King said. “We had talent and I think a lot of potential. The season was supposed to go until June, and it’s just to bad they lost the season. They were supposed to play another 20 games.” The U17 squad, also thrilled the Dajoh: Youth and Elders Centre crowd by making it to the Rez Hoops semi-finals before losing to Niagara. “This year we had close to 50 players with the youngest being in Grade 4 and oldest Grade 12,” King said about the three Six Nations teams. “There is definitely an interest at Six Nations and New Credit in basketball.”
SN Intermediate 1 Girls 2019 season review By Neil Becker
The Intermediate 1 Girls Lacrosse accomplished many great things last May when they celebrated on the Gaylord Powless Arena floor after winning Confederacy Tournament gold. “It was a great confidence booster, especially at that time in the season,” Six Nations Intermediate 1 Girls coach Cart Hill said. “The highlights of the season was the Confederacy
had to think of the health and well being of our children and as well as our elders,” Cart Hill said. “it is disappointing regarding the season; however, it is a medicine game and things will get better, it’ll just take some time.” He also went on to add, “I think that the Creator is trying to tell us something. We just have to listen and take care of each other and look forward to next season.”

You can bet that young hockey fans and brothers Alex and Jack Blair will never forget the kindness of Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price. A little over two weeks after 11-year-old Alex and 10-year-old Jack lost their parents Greg and Jamie Blair in the Nova Scotia shootings, Price took the time to send them a special heartfelt message on social media. “I just want to let you know that you’re not alone,” Price said. He then went on to add, “I’m thinking about you, and you have a lot of people around you that care very deeply for you. It’s okay to talk to them about your feelings and what you’re going through. You can and you will get through

this because of the character that was given to you by your parents.” Alex and Jack’s older brother Tyler showed his strong appreciation by writing on facebook a message of gratitude which read, “Just want you to know how much this meant to my two little bothers. They are still in shock you said their names.” Back in March, Price also showed his kindness and sensitivity towards others when through the Carey and Angela Price Foundation they donated $50,000 towards Breakfast Club of Canada during the COVID-19 crisis. The list is impressive in terms of his heartfelt generosity towards young fans, and you can bet that making Price’s video to inspire Alex and Jack Blair is something they will never forget in their lives.

We loved them both. We will always love them. We will always miss them. We will never forget them. Mike & Deb Van Every
Mother’s Day is a special day to honour the women who have loved us. It’s a day to appreciate the sacrifices they selflessly made to ensure the best lives for their children. It’s a day of celebration that becomes a day of pain when they are no longer with us. They are unforgettable and irreplaceable. This is the first Mother’s Day without Lynn. She was truly a committed Mother who only ever wanted the best for her children. With her birthday on May 13th, this was always a special week for her and her loved ones. Due to the heartless cowards that took her life, it will now be a week of sadness, heartache and grief only made bearable by the fond memories that she created. I hope there is cherry pie in Heaven and that Lynn gets to have a great big slice for Mother’s Day and her birthday too!! Shirley Stark With the passing of Lynn and Larry, the month of May is even more difficult to bear. It was Lynn’s birthday on the 13th of May and of course, Mother’s Day on the 10th. I liked to buy her flowers and a gift card to her favorite store. She always gave me too many gifts for Mother’s Day. I always said, Lynn, you don’t have to do this!!!! She said, but I want to get you something! What a big heart!!! Love, Kitty [Elaine Van Every]
Dear Lynn, It’s that time of the year again!! All the birthdays and Mother’s Day all mixed up together. It used to be such a wonderful time but now it is bringing nothing but sadness to me. There is so much turmoil in the world right now, I am finding it hard to find a ‘bright side’. I try to remember the good times we shared, like running away to ‘Hollywood’ on those rare occasions we could both drop everything and just go! We should have done it more often. We were both too responsible and always trying to help and support those loved ones around us. I hope you know that I am still trying to protect and support all of our loved ones. Where ever you are now, I hope you find happiness and peace. I will do EVERYTHING I possibly can to help make things right around here FOR YOU. Say hi to Larry Love you always, Deb
I remember my wedding day like it was yesterday. Aunt Lynn was so excited to go up and speak about how she had watched me grow up. I will forever treasure the pictures of us and the sound of her voice will never be forgotten as I watch my wedding videos. Thank you for always being there for me. Forever in my heart Auntie. Love you and miss you. Laura Betz Lynn took an electrical course at Mohawk College. Learned how to wire light switches and light bulbs in a wood frame. Really nice, cool. We were all surprised, she did really good. They all worked perfectly. Dad helped her a bit, and explained. She was top in her class. Cindy Staats
Come and enjoy the excellent food that Hill’s Snack Bar is famous for!
To my Aunt Lynn and Uncle Larry.....I miss you! You were good people, and good parents. You always helped others, especially family. Uncle Larry taught us kids to ride motorbikes and let us ride them at Nana’s house. Riding those bikes were some of the best memories I have of my childhood, we had so much fun. I miss those days. I wish you were both still here, but I hope you are in a better place. Wishing Aunt Lynn a Happy Birthday on the 13th, and a Happy Mother’s Day too! Love and miss you both, Angie XOXO.
