SIX NATIONS — A single vehicle crash left one man with minor injuries, after Police say a car hit the ditch on Sunrise Court. Police say a 2003 Honda Pilot lost control and entered the ditch, striking a hydro pole on the north side of Sunrise Court and came to rest by the Social Services sign.
The vehicle sustained major damage and was towed from he scene. An 18 year old male driver from Six Nations told police he fell asleep while driving and lost control while travelling northbound on Chiefswood Road. He received minor injuries. Police say there was no evidence of drug or alcohol at the scene. An investigation continues and charges are pending against the driver.
SIX NATIONS — Despite the rain, customers and the curious had a wonderful time, judging by feedback from the public posted to Sit-N-Bull Gas and Variety’s Facebook page. One visitor, Franci Greenaway shared, “I saw the Trailer Park Boys today. They walked by me not 20 feet away. Julian, Ricky and Bubbles. Super surreal! When I first saw Julian it felt like I was watching TV! Also a ton of awesome cars. Got more than a few photos... lol and caught a great performance by an artist whose name I didn't catch. I did not win a truck or an ATV or $500 but I had a bit of fun. More than your average gas fill up!!” What started out as a perfect day for

an outdoor Customer Appreciation Day and exotic car show at Sit-NBull Gas and Variety on Sixth Line Road got even more exciting when a sudden downpour hit Six Nations. The torrent virtually flooded the entire grounds in a matter of minutes. A sudden cloud burst sent hundreds of visitors and organizers to gather under sun tents scattered about the area.

The biggest winner was Selkirk’s Lisa Hope who won a brand new 2018 Ford 150 Pickup Truck. Caledonia’s Brian Grandin won a beautiful top shelf lawn mower, and a woman who only goes by Tibera, from Grimsby, won a 4-wheeler ATV.
There was still enough fun to go around as guests mingled and made new friends under the tent awnings and venders. The event began at 11 am under bright skies but by 2:30 the entire grounds were under a heavy downpour that forced organizers to shut the event down early. The annual event is a much anticipated local event at this time of the year and will return next year, hoping the rain won’t.

Back to school means drivers must take precautions on the road By TRT Staff SIX NATIONS — As students return to the classroom this week, drivers everywhere are being urged to take extra precaution to watch out for little ones walking to and from school. In Ontario, officials estimate there are 800,000 children that travel to and from school by bus. Oftentimes those youth are energized and not paying attention, or tired and not paying attention. So make sure you always stop for a schoolboy when the lights are flashing. Drivers must stop for school buses when the lights are flashing and the arm is out. Failing to do so carries a $2000 fine and six demerit points - and possible jail time if it’s not your first offence. Remember to watch your speed in school zones. Typically the area around a school will have posted speed limits of 30 km/hr or 40km/hr. On Six Nations and other surrounding rural
routes, students will be waiting for the school bus in the early morning hours starting at around 7 a.m. and be getting off the bus just after 3 p.m. on weekdays. Drivers in the area should watch their speed and keep aware of anyone walking on the side of the road during those times. Students — you should also take care to wait for the bus at a safe distance from the road and not too close to the path of traffic. Officials recommend students keep a 10 foot safety zone around the sides and front of a bus. That’s about five giant steps. And remember not to approach the bus to board until it has come to a complete stop. When it comes to drivers looking to pass the school bus — it’s best not to pass at all. Just take your time. The Highway Traffic Act of Ontario indicates that when a school bus is stopped on the roadway with its red lights activated and “Stop” sign out, drivers
must come to a complete stop in-front of and behind the bus. Motorists must not pass the stopped bus until the stop arm is retracted and the red lights are turned off. The owner of a vehicle can be charged if their vehicle fails to stop for a school bus even if they were not the driver. Parents dropping off children at schools should be mindful to only park in drop-off areas and not stop in bus zones or other prohibited areas in the school parking lots or on the roadway. Doing so can create unnecessary traffic and unsafe conditions for students. Watch for crossing guards and give them
3 charged in marijuana grow op - man shot
that extra minute to get students across the street safely. Pushing through an intersection because you are in a hurry or just impatient could have terrible consequences and is pretty much unnecessary. Remember that you should never pass another vehicle in a school zone. Additionally you should never do a U-turn, 3 point turn or drive in reverse in a school zone. Doing so is unsafe and children walking to or from school are not anticipating those kind of maneuvers on the road. Keep your speed slow and watch for children that may dart out into the parking lot, onto the road or towards the bus suddenly.
SIMCOE — Provincial police say three men are facing additional charges after a man was shot during a break-in at a licensed marijuana grow operation in southwestern Ontario. It's alleged the accused broke into a Norfolk County residence early on Tuesday and a 49-year-old man was injured in a shooting before the suspects fled the scene. The man has since been released from hospital and investigators
say they believe his home was targeted. Police arrested three St. Catharines, Ont., men and charged them with break and enter, robbery and aggravated assault. They say additional charges, including attempted murder, discharging a firearm with intent, use of a firearm while committing an offence and assault with a weapon, were laid on Friday. OPP say the investigation is ongoing.
HAMILTON — Hamilton police are seeking the public's assistance in identifying a man accused of sexually assaulting a sex trade worker. Police say the incident took place at about 3 a.m. on Thursday. Police say the officers found the woman unclothed and visibly
shaken. They say the man is described as 5 feet 6, with a skinny build, short black hair and black moustache and beard. He was wearing a black shirt, beige pants, blue Nike sandals and a red baseball cap. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Hamilton police.

Change the bylaw EDITORIAL BY NAHNDA GARLOW This week we heard the tragic account of a young child who was viciously sexually assaulted by a man who was supposed to take care of her. His excuses for the attacks were revolting. Raping a child is inexcusable. It is at the core of our pain from residential schools. It is the root of everything we are trying to heal from as a people. And if history has taught us anything it is that hurt people, tend to hurt people. Victims have the potential to become unable to cope with their pain — leaning to substance abuse or taking their own lives. In the most frightening cases, the victims become the perpetrators. Our message this week will be short, concise and to the point: change the
residency bylaw. Do not permit convicted sex offenders to resume residency on Six Nations upon their release from prison. In light of the statistics, that half of the indigenous women in Canada will be sexually assaulted, raped, molested or victims of incest by the time we are 12 — what is stopping us from making change to protect those among us that are the most vulnerable? Can we be the generation that takes action to protect our families from falling victim to sexual offences? Or will we be too afraid to be the change and pass down the #MeToo mantle to the faces yet to come? Change the bylaw.

Our artwork is a voice By Chezney Martin As you flip through our paper you will often notice the prevalence of the arts. Theatre, dance, writing and artwork are each showcased within and around our community because this community is abundant in talent and culture. But within this piece, I’m going to focus on the writing component for a moment as it is the medium I have the most experience with: We all have been forced to read a piece of fiction. Be it To Kill a Mockingbird, The Kite Runner or Crabbe, at some point we’ve all had a book of fiction in our hands. As you read fiction, you begin to notice that you are seeing the world through someone else’s eyes. You are watching a character interact with the world around them and you get to feel the setting as much as you get to experience the decisions of the main character and the outside obstacles they face. This is what separates fiction from other forms of writing as there is so much
room to play with for the writer, and so much to experience for the reader. It is a different thing entirely than being given a text book to read facts from. There are many voices behind the saying that once you finish a work of fiction and set the book down, you can walk away changed and with a new world view. That is how powerful fiction can be. So let’s say that a work of fiction takes you deep into a story that is based on true history. This story is enveloping and it is powerful because it is beautifully written, so well written in fact that you can almost taste the water the main character drinks to wash down a slice of bread. Now after you finish this piece of fiction, you put the book down, feeling almost as if you were there in that part of history. You saw the sights and smelled the smells of the main character, so you had to have experienced that part of history in the most perfect of ways. But this is where there can be fault in writing fiction. The truth is that the

perspective of the writer is the only perspective that you experienced — which was fictional. When writers tackle nonfiction there are a lot of rules, so many will opt for fiction instead. This is because they then have the freedom to take liberties and these liberties can find themselves taking out some of the facts. These liberties can also find themselves within the way the writer portrays situations and characters and this may include any bias or preconceived ideas the writer may have. This also includes any areas the writer is uneducated in, as they do not have to educate themselves because it is a piece of fiction. They can simply make it up as they go. “But it’s such a beautiful story,” is what you might think, but inauthentic writing causes impressions to be made that can be detrimental. If a piece of fiction is read by someone that has no knowledge of the true history it is based upon, who is going to have to sit there and explain the story and how inauthentic it is? This is why encouraging and supporting Onkwehon:we people to tell, illustrate, design, write, sculpt and paint their stories becomes so important. Not only because they are ours to tell, but because in today’s day and age, if we don’t tell them someone else will try to.

Thunder Woman Speaks
Opinion: Trudeau’s Proposed Framework is Treaty death RACHEL A. SNOW
rachelannsnow634@gmail.com
TWO ROW TIMES
Trudeau came into the Prime Minister’s office stating that no other relationship was as important as the one between Canada and the indigenous people. Trudeau’s words were comforting to the Indigenous who turned out in record numbers to vote for the Liberal party. Four years later, the truth of Trudeau’s statement is this: no other relationship needs breaking as much as the one between Canada and the indigenous people. It is not enough that successive Canadian governments have continued to advance termination or assimilation policies; Canada is now pushing to end Indigenous nationhood once and for all. When the settlers stumbled upon North America, they came as agents of European countries. The United Kingdom established the colony of Canada. Treaties from the eastern coast to the historic numbered treaties are evidence that nations were changing their relationship. The United Kingdom issued the British North America Act which Canada has renamed the 1867 Constitution Act. The 1867 constitutional
name change does not change the fact that First Nations were present in this land and therefore the true owner/occupiers of Canada. Canada has been repeatedly asked for documents at the international level to show “ownership” of Canada. Canada has not produced any documents. The only way Canada can truly become a “nation” without this documentation is to get the First Nations, the Indian people across Canada to agree or to consent. This consent will mean that the First Nation people are no longer holding the international nation status as the original owner/occupiers of this land but are willing to cede and surrender their ownership/placement in return for Trudeau’s new Rights and Recognition Framework legislation. Trudeau’s framework is to provide “clarity”. Trudeau wants his aboriginal Canadian children to know what their rights will be without having to go to courts for decisions. Trudeau promises to listen. Trudeau has let his Indian minister of Justice, Jodi Wilson-Raybould come up with ten principles to guide how Canada works with its aboriginal children. Unfortunately Jodi Wilson-Raybould developed these principles on her own or through the
Justice department because there was no involvement from the Indians. This is Trudeau’s first (of many) failure to listen. Trudeau is trying to sell a new Indian Act to the Indians. He has heard that the original people are unhappy with the existing Indian Act, so now he is promising to make a new better Indian Act, which will be called the Rights Recognition and Implementation Framework agreement. If you study the treaties,
status Indians measure at almost one million people so they are in fact the owners of this land, unless Canada has paperwork that proves differently. This is why Trudeau has been working hard on his Rights Recognition and Implementation Framework. The original people, the different nations, Nakoda, Dakota, Nehiyew, Haudenosaunee, Mi’kmaq, Dene or Anishnaabe are nations that negotiated with the United Kingdom so their
This proposed Framework agreement is Trudeau the younger’s 1969 White Paper attempt.
with an indigenous lens, there were differences in agreements because the United Kingdom was competing with French or American colonial threats. Canada does not like the treaty reminders that there was an actual nation settling this country before they, a little state without proof of ownership, came into play. Canada wants a one size fits all approach for their aboriginal wards. The real landowners or holders are the indigenous people who survived repeated genocide attempts. Treaty Indians now called
agreements have allowed Canada an existence. This proposed Framework agreement is Trudeau the younger’s 1969 White Paper attempt. What does this Framework mean to the grassroots status Indians who now crowd our reserves or seek unwelcome acceptance into Canada’s urban cities? First of all, the grassroots, collectively with their Indian Act Chief and councils are the owner/occupiers of all the land including the scant reserve lands. Therefore, the attempts
made by Trudeau that call for engagement of some Indians, some Industry, other aboriginal “collectives” and “regular” Canadians to pass this Framework as legitimate legislation is illegal. How can regular Canadians, industry or “aboriginal non treaty non status” collectives decide or have a say about the land? Hasn’t the land always belonged to the First Peoples? The grassroots people, those that are on the land with ten families in one house, no access to clean drinking water or housing repairs, limited jobs on reserve, encroachment by other towns or white settlers are in fact, the only people who can agree to this new framework. The consent of almost one million Indians is needed. Furthermore, each one must understand that they are going from owners to tenants. We will be taking all the ceremonies that happened before Treaty signing and all the sacred objects and exchanging them for ten years of funding that will go to chief and council. Once we agree to this framework, we will go from Nations to “ethnic minorities”. We will then be competing with other ethnic groups that require funds from Canada to keep their languages or traditions. If Canada feels we do not
deserve funds or there is a greater need elsewhere, we will not be helped. I have written previously on the hijacking of our governance systems. Indian Act chiefs and councils work for Indian Affairs. Chief and councils get dollars for education, health, housing and some other programs but they are not standing as heads of nations. They are standing as Indian Act administrators of our continued poverty. Indian Affairs, Trudeau and Jodi Wilson are doing their best to make this Rights Framework sound like a good deal. They have already sold it to the Assembly of First Nations and many regional chiefs or organizations. How? Chiefs and organizations are being offered multiyear funding which seems to signal more control in how money gets spent. For impoverished or corrupt agencies, this seems like a good trade. In the end, it is the original people, the grassroots who will suffer. If our “leaders” sell out the land and jurisdiction in this framework, then we have “modern day treaties.” Trudeau himself has said we will be a fourth order of government. This means we go from International Nations to nothing – for ten years of funding.

International Overdose Day
If you’re with someone who is overdosing.
Opioid overdose in Canada: The facts
Opioid overdose numbers in Canada have reached a crisis point. According to a national report by Health Canada there were 3987 opioid related deaths in 2017. And 92% were accidental. This is a 40% increase from 2624 opioid related deaths in 2016. In 2016, 50% of the nationally reported overdose deaths involved fentanyl. In 2017 that number jumped to 68%. According to the preliminary findings of a BC study of opioid related overdoses among First Nations people, The First Nations Health Authority on Salish Territory said from 2015-2016 -- 14% of all overdose events in BC involved First Nations people. Yet just 3.4% of the province’s population is indigenous. Researchers concluded that First Nations people are 5x more likely than non First Nations to experience an overdose. The study also found that 10% of all overdose deaths in BC involved First Nations people. Researchers concluded First Nations pole are 3x more likely than non First Nations to die due to an overdose. Among the general population men are at a greater risk of overdose: 78% according to national data of overdose events were male. In the First Nations study the numbers are split in half. 52% male and 48% female overdose cases. With the highest age range in men between 30-39 years of age and in women between 40-49 years of age.
Who is at risk of overdosing on opioids?
Anyone using prescribed or street opioids is at risk to overdose. Accidental overdose can occur if you misuse opioids. For example, extended release tablets are meant to be swallowed whole. If you crush or break the pills it can cause an overdose because too much of the drug is released at once. Signs and symptoms of an opioid overdose: Difficulty walking, talking or staying awake Blue lips or nails Very small pupils Cold, clammy skin Dizziness and confusion Extreme drowsiness Choking, gurgling or snoring sounds Slow, weak or no breathing Inability to wake up even when shaken If you think someone is overdosing call 9-1-1 right away. Give the person naloxone if it is available. Naloxone is a medication, available for free at most pharmacies, and can temporarily reverse an overdose if it is given right away. An overdose is always an emergency. Even if someone has taken naloxone. It can wear off before the person has completely recovered from their overdose. They may need more than one dose of naloxone. Always call for help. Source: Health Canada
1. Shout their name and shake their shoulders. 2. Call 911 if they are unresponsive. 3. Give naloxone. 4. Perform rescue breathing or chest compressions. 5. If there is no improvement after 2-3 minutes, repeat steps 3 and 4. Stay with them. If the person begins breathing on their own, or if you have to leave them on their own put the person in the recovery position. Whenever possible stay with the person until paramedics arrive. With some opioids, overdose symptoms will return again even after naloxone has been given. Source: Ontario.ca

What is Naloxone?
Naloxone, known as the brand name Narcan, is a drug that can temporarily reverse an opioid overdose. Opioids are drugs that are usually used to treat pain, but some people use opioids to get high, Some commonly used opioids include fentanyl, morphine, heroin, methadone or oxycodone.
When it comes to using drugs, be smart – don’t start!
How does it help an overdose?
SIX NATIONS
When someone overdoses on opioids their breathing either slows or stops completely. If used right away, naloxone can help them breathe normally and regain conciousness. Naloxone can either be injected or given as a nasal spray. You can get Naloxone kits at pharmacies and clinics across Ontario FREE, without a prescription.
Will I get arrested if I am with someone who overdoses?
No. In May 2017 the Government of Canada passed the Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act. This law provides legal protection for those who seek emergency help during an overdose. The act protects you from being charged with possession or in breech of conditions for possession of a controlled substance if you are calling authorities to save someones life. The act applies to anyone seeking emergency help during an overdose, including the person who is overdosing.
If you suspect someone around you is overdosing - call 911.

Intruder breaks into home, steals wallet By TRT Staff SIX NATIONS — Police say an intruder broke into a 3rd Line Road residence on Sunday and robbed a man of his wallet on Sunday. Police say on Sept 3 the occupant of the house stated he was watching television with his 4 year old grandson who was sleeping on the couch when a male entered the residence. The intruder was armed with a hatchet, dressed in black and had his face covered
with a scarf and bandana. Police said the suspect demanded the victim "hand over his wallet”. The suspect grabbed the victims wallet, that was on a table and fled the residence in a dark coloured car travelling westbound on 3rd Line Road. The suspect is described as 5'8, slim build, possibly in his 30's. Anyone with any information in regards to this incident is asked to contact Six Nations Police.
WHITEFISH RIVER — The community of Whitefish River First Nation say there will be no pot sales in their territory when recreational cannabis becomes legal. According to band officials the decision was made because First Nations are being targeted by
people wanting to set up dispensaries on reserves where jurisdiction and legal framework about the dispensaries isn’t clear. Ontario is scheduled to begin legal online cannabis sales to the public this October with plans to allow retail sales in storefronts in 2019.

“Nothing short of horrific”: 10 years in prison for man who Tougher raped step-daughter penalties JIM WINDLE
jim@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
Trigger Warning: explicit content concerning the sexual assault of a child BRANTFORD — A 53-year-old Six Nations man has been convicted of unspeakable sexual abuse against his step-daughter, now eight years old, over a two year span. Ontario Court judge Justice Colette Good called his crime, “nothing short of horrific.” The judge said details in this case were serious enough to add time and other conditions above those recommend by the Crown Attorney as well as the defence attorney. The pedophile, who the courts say must remain anonymous to protect the victim’s identity, has served equivalent time of 645 days in jail awaiting trial. His defence lawyer recommended that his
time already served was sufficient to satisfy twoyears plus time served. The Crown submitted four-years plus time served, neither of which were accepted by Good. “With the greatest respect to the Crown and the defence, the sentences suggested are wholly inadequate for this offender and the gravity of his offences,” said Good before pronouncing a sentence of 10 years in penitentiary, minus time already served. Good presented, graphically, why she believes a maximum penalty of 12 years plus time served would be in order, however, she also took into account several mitigating factors beyond the perpetrator’s control. According to his Gladue report; an abusive upbringing coupled with a brain injury reduced his mental capacity to that of a grade 5 level. He grew up in an alcoholic home devoid of love as a result
of his parents and several of his family members suffering abuses at the residential school. The Glade report says he lives on a disability pension and it is questionable if he could survive independently. The story of abuse the young victim suffered included two years of rape of all descriptions under threat of death should she tell anyone about it. She was whipped with a belt and punched if she resisted the sex acts and forced to look at pornographic material. Good explained her decision to add time to the recommended sentence. “Your considerable acts of cruelty, degradation, physical and sexual violence toward (the girl) would normally warrant a sentence at the extreme high end of the range,” she told the perpetrator. “Were it not for these significant mitigating features I would have no difficultly imposing (the top range for this crime) of 12
years,” said Good adding that nothing less would be acceptable under the horrific circumstances of this case. The Justice had compassion for the girl rightfully suggesting that for her, sex would always be associated with pain and shame. According to Justice Good, it was “alarming” that in a psychiatric assessment, the man attempted to blame the victim, saying that it was the child’s idea and that she “probably enjoyed” the sex acts. “I can’t imagine an eight-year-old child enjoying being anally raped after first being slapped, punched and whipped with a belt into submission,” Good said directly to the man. “You have little to no insight into the harm you’ve caused this child.” Good concluded that because of his perversion, the girl feels unloved and worthless, has trouble fitting in at school, mistrusts
men, especially those who have been drinking, trouble sleeping and fears he will come after her when he gets out of prison. The perpetrator was also convicted of “making intimate images available to a young person,” and making death threats against the girl and was sentenced to two years in jail to be served concurrently on those charges. He will be on the sexual offenders list for life and restricted from owning or using weapons for 10 years. His DNA will now be registered in the national databank. He must also stay away from his young victim for “the rest of his life.” He is not to be around anyone under 16 “unless he’s being supervised by an adult who knows about his convictions.” She added that if there is significant proof of rehabilitation somewhere down the road, she would reconsider the order.
for bad drivers
TORONTO — Ontario has tough new standards for dangerous driving. The changes took effect on September 1 and include tougher penalties for careless driving and endangering pedestrians. Drivers convicted of careless driving causing bodily harm or death will now face fines up to $50,000, six demerit points, a driver’s license suspension up to five years and up to two years in jail. Penalties also increased for drivers who fail to yield to pedestrians at crosswalks - to a fine of $1000 and four demerit points. Minister of Transportation John Yakabuski says the new standards send a message to the public that dangerous driving in Ontario will not be tolerated.

Trans Mountain pipeline ruling shakes central pillar of Trudeau agenda CANADIAN PRESS
editor@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
OTTAWA – On Wednesday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau painstakingly explained to students in Kapuskasing, Ont., how the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project is a central pillar of his government's agenda. Less than 24 hours later, the Federal Court of Appeal quashed the government's approval of the project, imperilling the pillar holding up Trudeau's signature promise to tackle climate change by balancing economic growth and environmental protection. Moreover, it underscored a gap between rhetoric and action when it comes to Trudeau's oft-stated vow to make reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples his top priority. The court found that the National Energy Board's environmental assessment of the project was fatally flawed because it ignored the potential impact of increased tanker traffic off
British Columbia's coast. It also ruled that the federal government had not fulfilled its duty to meaningfully consult with affected Indigenous groups. ``For over a year and a half, Canadians have waited for Trudeau to come up with a concrete plan to ensure this pipeline project is completed,'' said Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer. ``Instead, he offered one delay after another, and the ruling today shows that he couldn't even carry out his own government's consultation process. He has now left Canadian taxpayers on the hook for a pipeline that he isn't allowed to build, jeopardizing jobs and investment at the same time as our economy faces the uncertainty of NAFTA re-negotiations, tax hikes, and Liberal deficits.'' Finance Minister Bill Morneau insisted the government is still ``absolutely committed'' to completing the $4.5-billion purchase of the project from Kinder Morgan _ as early as Friday _ and ensuring that the expansion is eventually built to carry Alberta's oilsands
bitumen to tidewater. He did not rule out appealing the court ruling. But he appeared inclined to accept the court's suggested remedy: order the energy board to redo its environmental assessment and redo the government's own consultations with Indigenous Peoples, both of which the court said could be tightly focused and completed relatively quickly. ``We're going to review today's decision to ensure that we're meeting high standards when it comes to both protecting the environment and meeting our obligations to consult with Indigenous Peoples,'' Morneau said, adding that the court has ``given us some good directions on next steps.'' At a minimum, however, that would mean more delay and increased uncertainty about whether the project will ever actually be built. ``They just don't know what they're doing. They have no idea how they're actually going to get this project built,'' said Scheer. Canadian Chamber
of Commerce president Perrin Beatty said the ruling ``sends a profoundly negative message to investors both here at home and around the world about Canada's regulatory system and our ability to get things done even after the federal government has declared them to be in the national interest.'' NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, Green Party Leader Elizabeth May and a host of environmental and aboriginal groups all called on the federal government to admit defeat and cancel the project. ``Climate leaders don't buy or expand pipelines,'' said Singh, adding that the government should ``consider all legal options'' to cancel the purchase of Trans Mountain. But the Trudeau Liberals have staked far too much on the project to ``cut their losses and walk away'' from it, as May suggested they should do. Trudeau himself laid out for students Wednesday how the pipeline is a crucial piece of his government's climate change and economic growth puzzle.
``We understand that climate change is real, it's a major issue for us,'' he said. He said an ``essential'' element of the plan to reduce carbon emissions was Alberta's commitment to cap emissions from the oilsands. In return, the federal government has committed to piping Alberta's oilsands bitumen to British Columbia's coast, where it can be shipped to overseas markets. ``Some people are wondering why we're building a new pipeline if we're really serious about dealing with climate change,'' Trudeau acknowledged. He argued that it will take years to transition off fossil fuels and, in the meantime, the world will still need oil and Canada will need to generate the wealth needed to fund the transition to a low-carbon economy. The Trans Mountain pipeline would, he said, allow Canada to sell its resources to Asian countries at a better price, rather than continue to be ``held hostage'' to the American market. Protecting the environment and growing the
economy must ``go hand in hand,'' he stressed, adding that this ``is the type of compromise that we need.'' Back in 2013, shortly after he was first elected Liberal leader, Trudeau headed to the Calgary Petroleum Club, where he accused Stephen Harper's Conservative government of needlessly antagonizing environmentalists and First Nations with an unabashedly pro-energy industry stance that resulted in no new major pipelines being built. He vowed that a Liberal government would gain the ``social license'' necessary to build pipelines by working in partnership with environmental and Indigenous groups. On Thursday, Morneau said his government inherited a flawed environmental review process from the Harper government and ``made efforts to improve it.'' The court, however, found those improvements, in practice, fell far short of what's required.

TORONTO — Thousands of people participating in Ontario's basic income pilot will receive their last payment on March 31, 2019, the province says, but an anti-poverty activist says the six-month wind down will still hurt many who were depending on the program. After pulling the plug on the pilot last month, the Progressive Conservative government said Friday the final payments to the 4,000 low-income recipients in several cities will be made on that date. The clarification comes after Social Services Minister Lisa MacLeod denied reports that the payments would end in August, stressing there would be a ``lengthy and compassionate runway'' to end the program aimed at lifting people out of poverty that was launched by the for-
mer Liberal government. ``We have a broken social service system,'' MacLeod said in a statement. ``A research project that helps less than 4,000 people is not the answer and provides no hope to nearly two million Ontarians who are trapped in a cycle of poverty.'' Along with the cancellation of the pilot, Ontario promised to complete a review of the province's social assistance programs by Nov. 8. The basic income pilot project was set to run for three years, providing payments to 4,000 low-income people in communities including Hamilton, Brantford, Thunder Bay and Lindsay. Single participants receive up to $16,989 a year while couples receive up to $24,027, less 50 per cent of any earned income. The Tories had promised during the spring election to preserve the $150-million pilot, but MacLeod later said it would reverse course because the program was ``failing'' _ a
claim experts have disputed. Tom Cooper of the Hamilton Roundtable for Poverty Reduction said the six-month wind down will not be enough time for many people. ``It still leaves many basic income participants in impossible situations,'' he said. ``Many have signed one year lease agreements with landlords and they can't get out of those leases and they can't afford their new rent. There's many people who plan to go back to school in September. Whether that will still be a reality for them with a longer wind down is questionable.'' Cooper said the government has only now extended the wind down because it was under pressure. ``While it seems that this might be a little bit longer wind down than initially feared, I think that's only because there was so much pressure on them and there was very little compassion shown by the government in the early days,'' he said.

The Story of Orange Shirt Day book launched in Kamloops CHEZNEY MARTIN
chezney@tworowtimes.com
TWO ROW TIMES
WILLIAMS LAKE – Residential school survivor Phyllis Webstad is working to publish a children’s book depicting her experience within the residential school system. September 30 has, since 2013, been annually recognized as Orange Shirt Day for indigenous communities across the country to honour the survivors of residential schools and their families. The federal government is currently considering to make it a new statutory holiday to celebrate the day at the national level. But as the founder of Orange Shirt Day, Web-
stad hopes to use her story to help others gain a deeper understanding of the day and its symbolic meaning. From the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation, Webstad also included sections in her book that cover Shuswap history and specific information about the St. Joseph Residential School which she attended. She ha high hopes for her book, as she believes it will be a valuable teaching tool and addition to schools in teaching children and youth about the history of residential schools and their impact. Her story unfolds as the shirt reference is rooted in her first day at the St. Joseph’s Mission residential school in Williams Lake B. C.,
as she wore an orange shirt that her grandmother bought her for her first day. The orange shirt had laces in the front and upon her arrival, she was stripped of it at the school. As her memories of the school include her remembering the crying of young children and feeling worthless, the core of the symbolism behind Orange Shirt Day includes the message that every child matters. The official launch of “The Orange Shirt Story” included the presence of Webstad in Kamloops, B.C., on Tuesday, September 4. And for this year’s upcoming Orange Shirt Day, she encourages others to attend an event near or in their community.
KAMPLOOPS — Founder of Orange Shirt Day Phyllis Webstad released her book “The Orange Shirt Story” in Kamloops, B.C., on September 4, with the hopes that the book will become a teaching tool in classrooms and offer readers an understanding of how Orange Shirt Day came to be. The annual event will bring rise to indigenous communities across the country to honour residential school survivors and their families on September 30.

CALEDONIA — There is turmoil within the ranks of the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League which had forced the cancelation of the annual Jr.B hockey Showcase tournament which usually kicks off the new season. During the off-season a number of teams expressed their unhappiness with how the league is being run and have threatened to pull out and possibly form a new league. The top brass of the Caledo-
nia Corvairs are saying nothing about that being the cause of their hiatus from operations for this coming hockey season. The official reason is that the opening of the Jukasa Speedway and the official opening of the new MontHill golf course to get ready for, the organization has opted to take a year off to regroup. Meanwhile, the OHL will have to either make some changes at the executive level, GOJHL Inc. or deal with the possible exodus from their ranks. Many believe it’s time to rethink the whole Jr. B hockey thing

That threw a monkey wrench into the Showcase which was further rained upon when the OHL refused to assign referees to the event.

HALDIMAND — The highly anticipated racing event hosted by the Jukasa Motor Speedway invited late model fans to enjoy the Canadian Short Track Nationals to witness the race for a whopping $50,000 first place prize. The unsanctioned 200 lap event attracted thousands of race fans and race entries from its home province as well as Quebec, Atlantic Canada and northeastern, southeastern and midwestern areas of the USA. General Manager and
Promoter at Jukasa Motor Speedway Alex Nagy previously explained that race fans couldn’t go anywhere else in North America to see an event of this caliber crammed into two days. “It was our first annual [event] where we wanted to develop one of the biggest oval track races in the country,” said Nagy. “We’re looking forward to continuing to build on it.” As preparation for he event might go unnoticed to visitors, Nagy noted on just how much hard work he and his team put forth to ensure the weekend was a success. “We have a great team of folks that help put it together and pull everything
off, for sure, “ he said. “There’s a lot of moving parts.” Nagy also explained that the event held some of the top Canadian and American contenders, including Jason Hathaway, Brandon Watson, and Bubba Pollard. As the perennial Southeastern Contender, Pollard from the USA was among the most prolific, as the third-generation star’s list of achievements are lengthy. Pollard later took home the $50,000 purse by the end of Sunday night. But that wasn’t the only memorable piece of the weekend, as Nagy explained his own highlight.

OTTAWA — Assembly of First Nations (AFN) National Chief Perry Bellegarde applauded the decision by the Federal Court of Appeal to halt construction of the Trans Mountain expansion project. Bellegarde said in a statement that the decision is “another victory for First Nations.” The national chief said while it's unfortunate First Nations must litigate to protect inherent rights,
title and jurisdiction — it had to be done. “In this case, the government did not even meet the duty to consult standard as articulated by the courts,” said Bellegarde. “Our right to self-determination, inherent rights and title and Treaty rights have been affirmed as legal rights in Canada and internationally.” Bellegarde said, "The decision confirms yet again why we need to work
together on a better approach that leads to better decisions and better outcomes – an approach that implements and enforces rights and title, including free, prior and informed consent as set out in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. This is how we avoid conflict and costly legal battles and advance reconciliation. This is how we can grow a stronger country for our children."
