I hope this message finds everybody safe and in good health. I’d like to take some time today to address the crisis taking place in Caledonia, where land defenders have gathered. I have visited the site and will continue to visit to hear from the people on the ground in what they have to say and to better understand where they are coming from. My goal is to keep an open line of communication and a continuous dialogue between everyone involved. I’m happy to say that we had some good discussion, and found a lot of common ground. We both agree that the health and safety of everyone involved is the primary concern. We also agree that this needs to be a time of unity for our community of Six Nations in order for us to move forward. I have also been in contact with Premier Ford, Minister Rickford as well
Two injunctions ordering the removal of road blocks in Haldimand County and the removal of obstruction of the McKenzie Meadows housing development were issued by a Superior Court judge last week. Despite those injunctions being served and executed by OPP, demonstrators returned and resumed their protest of the accomodation deal struck between Six Nations Elected Council and Ballantry Homes.

as Indigenous Services Minister Miller on this issue and hope to continue that conversation over the coming days and weeks. I have been pleased to see the willingness of everyone to engage on this issue with an open mind, and I encourage all sides and each and every person involved to carefully consider the actions they take and the impacts those actions will have on the situation. We want to be clear that we do not support any actions that would lead to violence and destruction. Instead, I encourage open and meaningful dialogue guided by empathy, compassion and a true willingness to understand each other. I also encourage everyone in Ontario and across Canada to listen to the con-
cerns of the Land Defenders. And to learn why the area of land under dispute holds so much cultural and emotional significance for many people in our community. The issues underpinning this crisis go much deeper and much further than this specific plot of land. It is the result of a colonial history that has silenced and oppressed generations of First Peoples. I want to thank Mayor Hewitt for acknowledging the extent and the history of this crisis, including the last 27 years, during which our leaders have been following the laws of this country to pursue our land rights with the government of Canada. This is a chance for us to learn from the colonial past, to do this right, and to do it together.
For our part, the Elected Council is spearheading the creation of a table that can foster these conversations in a safe and inclusive environment. We want to ensure that every voice is heard, including those of the entire Six Nations of the Grand River community, local, provincial, and national governments, as well as community representative organizations, and others impacted. We hope you will join us in finding a path forward that hears and respects everyone involved. Your ideas, knowledge and wisdom will help us develop a process that guides us into the future. Our current moratorium on any future developments on the tract will remain in place until we establish a
threshold that meets the expectations of the community and ensures that every member has the opportunity to not only express their views and concerns, but that those concerns do not fall on deaf ears and are meaningfully addressed. This is an opportunity for us to come together, to tackle our problems, collectively, and in a way that is consistent with our traditional values of compassion, cooperation, sharing, honesty and integrity. It is an opportunity for us to carry the peace, together. With that in mind, I commit to keeping the lines of communication open with everyone, and will continue to provide updates via our website and social media channels. Nya:weh. Thank you. PM42686517

BRANTFORD — One new case of COVID-19 was confirmed on Six Nations and a Brantford woman has died of the virus just days after an outbreak was declared at Brantford General Hospital’s emergency room. Six Nations new confirmed case marks the 16th case of coronavirus on Six Nations since the beginning of the pandemic - including one death. Meanwhile a 90 year old female who had battled the virus in hospital died Tuesday morning. Health officials say the case was not related to the outbreak in the Brantford General Hospital and that the woman contracted the virus through travel outside of Canada. On Sunday, Brant Community Healthcare Systems posted notification of an
outbreak at BGH to social media saying two staff members, one a resident of Brant County and one a resident of another jurisdiction, tested positive for coronavirus. The statement says the two separate cases at BGH were employees in the emergency room, that the two cases are not related and do not appear to have any connections. Health officials with BCHS told TRT that an outbreak is declared in a hospital setting when two or more persons test positive for the virus, and say all persons who had contact with the positive cases have been contacted and that no patients were affected. There were two previous outbreaks of COVID-19 at BGH in April. Five staff

games being done because our games were so close and running longer. I will never forget my experience at the 2008 NAIG games as it was a beautiful trip (to B.C.), made lasting friendships and unforgettable memories with my sisters.” Blessed with a strong work ethic and determination, Carey-Leigh Vyse would go on to carve out quite the impressive women’s softball career; which among her many achievements, included being enshrined into The Hall of Fame for Ontario PWSA

Supreme Court to hear Khill TORONTO — A Hamilton-area homeowner who gunned down a Six Nations man succeeded on Thursday in getting the country's top court to hear his case. The Supreme Court agreed to weigh in at the request of Peter Khill, who was initially acquitted of second-degree murder in the killing of Jon Styres on Feb. 4, 2016. However, the Ontario Court of Appeal ordered him to stand trial again, prompting him to seek leave to appeal. Khill, of Binbrook, Ont.,
successfully argued at trial he was acting in self-defence when he twice shot Styres, of Ohsweken, Ont., outside his semi-rural home. Within seconds of spotting Styres leaning into his 15-year-old pickup truck, Khill yelled, ``Hands up!'' and opened fire twice from just a few metres away. He hit Styres, 29, squarely in the chest. Khill, who was 26 at the time, testified in his own defence that he had no choice but to open fire on the father of two from the
Six Nations of the Grand River reserve, about 30 minutes away. On initial appeal of the June 2018 acquittal, the prosecution argued that Superior Court Justice Stephen Glithero had failed to instruct the jury properly about Khill's role in the confrontation that led to the shooting. The Court of Appeal agreed, saying Khill's actions were a potentially significant factor in whether his opening fire was reasonable.

CALEDONIA — Indigenous demonstrators have returned to the site of a housing development at the centre of a land dispute in southern Ontario, the day after nine people were arrested following a violent clash with police. Provincial police say they went to the McKenzie Meadows development on the outskirts of Caledonia, Ont., on Wednesday to enforce a court injunction ordering demonstrators off the land. OPP allege some of the occupiers threw ``large rocks'' at officers, and officers responded by firing a single round from a weapon that shoots rubber bullets. They say nine people

OHSWEKEN — A proposed plan for how and when Six Nations elementary school students would return to the classroom was presented at Six Nations of the Grand River’s General Council meeting on Tuesday. Federal Director of Schools Kathleen Manderville brought forward a 23 page draft plan to Council. The plan is still in draft form, has not been approved by the Six Nations council or the community. Manderville said that Six Nations schools will not reopen until the community enters Phase 3 of the pandemic restrictions. Currently Six Nations remains in Phase 2. Out of 679 of Six Nations families with elementary students - 394 families responded to a public survey looking for feedback from parents about what a return to school should look like. The first preference, from 37% of Six Nations parents was that students continue to stay home and learn online.

were arrested and later released. Protesters have dubbed the site ``1492 Land Back Lane'' and began occupying it more than two weeks ago, arguing the development violates the sovereignty of the Haudenosaunee people.
The Haudenosaunee were involved in a similar land dispute in 2006. The occupation drew the premier's ire on Thursday, and while he said he could not and would not direct the police, he made his position
clear. ``You just can't go in and take over people's future homes.... It's wrong,'' Doug Ford said during a news conference. He called the incident ``uncalled for,'' ``disturbing'' and ``unacceptable.''
Manderville said that 22% of children in the community are without a device, and parents have identified that device sharing for multiple children in a home is not feasible for families. She said that funding would need to be in place for every student to have access to a device to access internet. A total of 84% of students have at home, reliable working internet access. Just 17% of parents on Six Nations wanted a traditional full time return to the classroom for students. Of that number 75% wanted students to attend in smaller cohorts on alternating weeks. Manderville said that a reopening committee was formed of 45 principals, vice principals and parents in the community to look at what would be required for students to return to class. The Committee identified a reopening learning plan, a wellness plan, operational plan and a policy and communications group. Manderville said the discussions began in May in order to have a suitable reopening plan in place by September.
Continuing language lessons in Cayuga and Mohawk was made a priority. The Six Nations Schools website began hosting online lessons through the summer, providing an immersion channel along with cultural teachings. The plan includes a fully unplugged model where parents could provide paper lessons to their children. This was put in place so that parents who do not have reliable internet would not feel like the only option is to send children back to the classroom if they are not ready to. Manderville said that if parents want to resume in-class instruction, students will be required to undergo daily screenings at home and at school, be separated in small cohorts of no more than 11 students. Sharing items will not be permitted in the classroom and students will be required to maintain physical distancing and have regular hand washing intervals throughout the day. Younger students would have supervised hand washing throughout the day. Face masks would be mandatory on school
property for anyone who attends the school property and on buses. There would be a maximum of 24 students allowed on a school bus at one time along with bus monitors. Parents, families and visitors to schools would be required to share personal information for contact tracing in the case of an outbreak. Additional cleaning protocols are included in the plan and commonly touched areas would need to be cleaned twice a day at a minimum. Classrooms would be adapted for physical distancing. Drinking fountains will be shut off and plexiglass barriers installed in school offices along with portable barriers between children in the classroom. Personal protective equipment and hand sanitizer will be available in the schools. Elected Council is now asking for a summarized plan from Manderville and will gather feedback from the community before a decision is made. Kawenniio-Gawenniyo Immersion School will not be reopening in

Flying Heads, Stone Giants and Legends: an ancient account from Chief Elias Johnson JIM WINDLE
jim@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
In 1881 Tuscarora Chief, Elias Johnson, put to paper some of the ancient knowledge of the Six Nations people for posterity as well as a permanent record of the pre-contact legends and medicine ceremonies of the traditional peoples. Combining known facts, myths and spiritual insights — faithkeepers and elders told of far ancient times long before contact, which established them as a people and introduced knowledge of their surroundings, the understanding of their world. From that, to the wisdom of how to co-exist with nature as a partner and provider. The following are two such legends as recorded by Chief Elias Johnson in his book, ‘Legends, Traditions and Laws of the Iroquois or Six Nations, and History of the Tuscarora Indians’.
Legend of the Flying Head “Drum and rattle and enchantments were deemed more effective than arrows or clubs. One evening, after they had been plagued a long time with fearful visitations, the flying head came to the door of a lodge occupied by a single female and her dog. She was sitting composedly before the fire roasting acorns, which, as they became cooked, she deliberately took from the fire and ate. Amazement seized the flying head, who put out two huge black paws from under his streaming beard.
Legends such as the Flying Head are important to culture. PHOTO OBTAINED BY TRT
Supposing the woman to be eating live coals he withdrew, and from that time he came no more among them.”
Stone Giants “They were also invaded by a still more fearful enemy, the Ot-nea-yar-heh, or Stonish Giants. They were a powerful tribe from the wilderness, tall, fierce and hostile, and resistance to them was vain. They defeated and overwhelmed army which was sent out against them, and put the whole country in fear. These giants were not only of great strength, but they were cannibals, devouring men, women and children in their inroads.” Medicine Legends According to Chief Johnson, the ancient manner of administering medicines was to take a small wooden goblet and go to a running stream, dipping toward the way which the stream ran, fill the goblet and return, place it near the fire with some tobacco near it; a prayer is offered while tobacco is thrown upon the fire, that the words may ascend upon the smoke. "The medicine is placed
on a piece of skin near the goblet, being very finely pulverized, is taken up with a wooden spoon and dusted upon the water in three spots, in the form of a triangle. The medicine man then looks at it critically, if it spreads over the surface of the water and whirls about, it is a sign that the invalid will be healed; if it sinks directly in the places where it was put, there is no hope, the sick person must die and the whole is thrown away. Once in six months there is a great feast made, at the hunting season in fall and spring. On the night of the feast as soon as it is dark, all who are present assemble in one room, where no light or fire is allowed to burn, and placing the medicine near the covered embers, the tobacco by its side, they commence singing, which proclaims that the crows are coming to their feast, and also many other birds and various animals, the brains of whose species form part of their medicine. At the end of the song some one imitates the caw of a crow, the songs of the birds, the howls of the wolf, etc., as if the animals were present. Three times in the course of the night they offer a prayer, while throwing tobacco on the smothered flames, asking that the people may be protected from all harm, and if they receive wounds that the medicine may be effectual in healing them. At the commencement of the ceremonies the doors are locked, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the house while they continue; neither is

any one allowed to sleep, as that would spoil the medicine. The feast begins just before the dawn of day. The master of ceremonies first takes a deer's head, bites off a piece, imitates the cry of a crow and passes the head of the animal to another, who does the same, till all have tasted and imitated the peculiar note of some bird or animal. As soon as it begins to be light the presiding officer takes a duck's bill, and dipping it full of the medicine, gives it to each one present, who puts it in a bit of skin and wraps it in several coverings, keeps it carefully until the next semi-annual feast. The skin of a panther is preferred for the first envelope if it can be obtained. Those who take part in the ceremonies are medicine men. Chiefs are allowed to be present; also, any who have been cured of any disease by the medicine. When the medicine described in the second legend is used, the tune is sung which was heard at Its discovery, both at the ceremonies of the feast and the time of administering it. They seem to think the ceremonies effectual in making the medicinal qualities of the compound Imperishable. Each medicine man has a large quantity which he keeps in a bag, and in order not to exhaust the whole, now and then, adds pulverized com roots, squash vines, etc, and whenever it is administered several persons assemble and sing. Both kinds are considered especially useful in healing wounds received in war."
New chief of police to be appointed
Darren Montour is due to be the new Chief of Police.
OBTAINED BY TRT
By TRT Staff OHSWEKEN — Six Nations has a new Chief of Police. Acting Deputy Chief Darren Montour will take his place as Six Nations new Chief of Police on August 17. Montour has served on Six Nations Police since 1992 and has supervised the force’s Criminal Investigations Unit. A statement from the Six Nations Police Commission says Montour was selected as part of a succession process established by the Commission and is looking to increase the force’s technology capabilities. David Smoke stepped into the position of Deputy Chief of Police on August 4. Smoke began with Six Nations Police also in 1992 and has been Sergeant, Staff Sergeant and Acting Deputy Chief. Montour takes the place of former Chief of Police Glenn Lickers following his retirement. In a statement from the Police Commission, Lickers is said to have started his policing career with the
RCMP in 1976. He was the first and only Chief Six Nations Police has had since its inception in 1990. “As the first Six Nations Chief of Police, Glenn has played an integral part of laying the foundation for the Six Nations Police Service. Over his 30-year term as Chief of Police he is recognized for his numerous achievements in his efforts toward the safe keeping of the Six Nations of the Grand River Territory through the Six Nations Police Service. His accomplishments range from establishing the organizations structure, participating on the Six Nations Police negotiating team, establishing policies for the operations of the service, and has been a member of a number of Chiefs of Police Associations at the International, National and Provincial level.

Chief Lickers was the recipient of the Order of Merit of the Police Forces.”

Six Nations Chiefs full of home-grown talent NEIL BECKER

TWO ROW TIMES
The Six Nations Chiefs pride themselves on building a roster full of electrifying talent. Prominent Six Nations stars such as veteran Cody Jamieson, Randy Staats, Brendan Bomberry, Tyson Bomberry and goalie Doug Jamieson have for years entertained fans with their dominant play. Coming off a solid 2019 regular season, the Chiefs ultimate quest to bring home the Mann Cup fell short. They got off to a solid start as they began playoffs by defeating the Oakville Rock in five of what was a best of seven format, before falling in the MSL league finals against the Peterborough Lakers. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic wiping out this year’s campaign, Chiefs General Manager Duane Jacobs was highly optimistic as he reflected on what fans could expected from this year’s team. “This was the year where we looked like we were going to be almost primarily a hometown team and that’s where I see our strength. That’s where our pride comes in with guys playing for their community in front of their friends and family,” said Jacobs. “I think the Chiefs would have been a lot similar to last year. You would have seen additions like Tehoka Nanticoke, Liam Leclair and possibly Austin Staats. Arguably

three of the best graduating juniors in the country. You would have seen the addition of Ty Logan who won a spot with the New England Black Wolves and toiled with Ottawa in the Quebec league. There were a few more local kids who were going to be given a look.” This storied franchise, who have won a total of six Mann Cup titles, were preparing for quite the transition this year as former player Rich Kilgour stepped down after a successful nine year coaching sting with the Chiefs. Kilgour, who is from a small reserve of Tuscarora, played a pivotal role along with brother Darris in helping the Chiefs make some lacrosse history by becoming a dynasty in winning three straight Mann Cup Championships
from 1994-96. Eventually Kilgour became the Chiefs head coach where he was successful in guiding them to success as they were simply dominant in wining the Mann Cup trophy in 2013, 2014 in Six Nations and again in 2016. “Losing Rich is a tremendous loss when you have a guy who commits to your summer program and takes time away from his family and work for nine years,” Jacobs said. “That person is hard to replace and so we were taking our time. I think there’s an adjustment period for our team to go through before bringing someone to replace an icon like Rich Kilgour and that’s also the respect I have for him.” During his tenure as coach, Kilgour also led the
Chiefs to six Major Series Lacrosse finals, and leaves as the all time winningest coach in franchise history. “I’ve been doing it for nine years,” Kilgour said. “I’ve coached a lot of the same guys during that time and I think they’ve heard everything that I could say. All good things come to an end. I appreciate everything the Chiefs, Dewey, and Kenny Hill have done for me and this team. I loved it, and that’s why I did it for so long.” Seventeen years after helping Six Nations win the 1996 Mann Cup, Kilgour won another championship only this time as a coach. After leading the 2013 Chiefs to a 163-1 first place finish, the Chiefs couldn’t be stopped as they went undefeated in post season play by posting series sweeps

against the KW Kodiaks and Brooklin Redmen to win the Major Series Lacrosse League Championship and qualify for Mann Cup play. Engaged in what was a real momentum swinging series, the Chiefs were led by series MVP Cody Jamieson, as they defeated the Victoria Shamrocks in six games to take home the Mann Cup. The following season, Kilgour was once again money behind the bench as he led the Chiefs to another league championship followed by a second straight Mann Cup win against Victoria. What made this six- game series so special, was that the Chiefs were able to win this prestigious championship in front of fans and family at the Iroquois

Lacrosse Arena. Two years later, Six Nations fans proudly witnessed their team recapture the Mann Cup as this time they defeated the Maple Ridge Burrards in five games of what was another seven game series. In the three years since that last championship, Six Nations have on two occasions made it to the league finals, including last year but were eliminated. After Kilgour decided to step down last year, Jacobs wasn’t in any hurry to immediately hire a coach. “I think I was prepared to step behind the bench this summer and perhaps bring someone into the staff and see how that went,” Jacobs said. “We still had a very capable staff with JT and Tim Bomberry still in the fold. Moving forward we want a progressive coach who can communicate with our group and who can get the most out of them.” Reflecting on what could have been if there was a season this year, Jacobs also went on to add. “I think we were fairly confident in our team. It’s never easy to win a championship but with our group, the additions to our existing group, we have a team capable of winning multiple championships once more.” Hearing that is sweet music to the loyal Six Nations Chiefs fanbase.

(Provincial Women’s Softball Association) with the Brantford Bobcats squad she excelled on growing up. “We were the first team to win both provincials and Canadian Championships in three different age categories in 2006, 2008 and 2011,” she said. Reflecting on her career, Vyse represented the Six Nations community with tremendous pride and strong determination. Showcasing her talents, this infielder in 2011, as a 17- year-old made the Junior Women’s National Team, which competed in South Africa and placed fifth at the World Championships. A year later it was onto Whitehorse, Yukon, where as a rookie in the World Championships helped Canada to a fourth- place finish. “I am very humbled and proud to have represented Six Nations all of those years I had played for the national team,” Vyse said. “When I was with the team I would always get, ‘Where is Six Nations?’ And I would probably answer any questions they had
related to our community or culture. And it would be so cool to see Indigenous people come out to our games because after each of our games, we would have signings/ meet and greets and I would meet Indigenous people from all over who would said that they heard there was an Indigenous women on the team and wanted to come out and support.” In total, Vyse has represented Canada in three world Championships, including one in Surrey British Columbia where she came away with a bronze. Another monumental achievement came in 2016 when Vyse received the Dreamcatcher Charitable Sports and Recreation Award at the Dreamcatcher Gala. “I was also honored with the Recognition of Excellence by the Six Nations Council.” A year later after Team Canada’s qualifiers in Puerto Rico, Vyse decided to call it a career. “For our young and upcoming Indigenous female players who grow up wanting to play on the International women’s
softball team, the advice I would give is to be proud of who you are and to show them how Indigenous women can play,” Vyse said. “Show them your perseverance and determination. Show them your grit and that fighter in you. It’s a constant battle to overcome all of the obstacles in making the team, as you are competing against the best of the best and for a spot on a 17 or 15 person roster.” She also went on to add, “Be that athlete who is always hustling on and off the field, to and from drills or even on water breaks. Be that athlete who helps clean up equipment and shag balls, be the athlete who does extra reps and doesn’t settle, be that athlete who puts in that extra work when the coaches aren’t watching and most importantly, be the athlete who is coachable and who approaches everything that they do with a good mind and an open mind so that you will grow, both as a person and as a softball player.” Another thing to remember is when on the diamond, always remember to have fun.
