TWO ROW TIMES

Welcome to the

Prelaunch About us: Introducing, The Two Row Times

H

ello and welcome to the Two Row Times’ special pre-launch issue! The Two Row Times is a free weekly news publication aimed at reaching the Ontario-wide Native market as well as Haudenosaunee communities in the United States. We are using this pre-launch issue to introduce our project and our team. The first full issue of the Two Row Times will launch with a print run of 20,000 copies on August 21st. 2013, and will be distributed at every reserve in Ontario and in neighbouring non-Native communities.

to the audio podcasts we produce and promote, all the while connecting with our online advertisers and supporters.

The Two Row Times is a FREE publication with truthful, timely and relevant information that its readership can’t find elsewhere. Because our paper promotes an underlying message of Onkwehon:we unity and resurgence, we think that we will become an intellectual and political lodestone that will be appreciated and supported by all nations across Turtle Island.

Our goal

In the words of its publisher and owner, Jonathan Garlow, “the goal of the Two Row Times is to provide timely and relevant news and information to Native communities as well as to serve as a bridge between all nations by promoting and demonstrating the values of the Two Row Wampum.”

Our name is inspired by the Two Row Wampum, one of the first treaty agreements made between Native people and non-Native people on Turtle Island (North America). This treaty is an agreement of peace, friendship and mutual non-interference between European newcomers and the Onkwehon:we – the original people of this land. 2013 is a fortuitous year for launching our paper, since it marks the 400th year anniversary of the creation of the original Two Row agreement between the Mohawks and the Dutch.

So what’s different about this paper?

Where you can find us:

Our business office is located at Garlow Print & Copy, 657 Mohawk Rd. Hagersville (Six Nations) ON, N0A 1H0.

The Two Row Times is present on all 133 reserves in Ontario, and in urban Native centres in Ontario and upstate New York. Our main base of operations is centred on the Six Nations of the Grand River Territory – the largest reserve in Canada with a population of over 24,000.

Our website www.tworowtimes.com fully integrates social media capacities and is updated daily with relevant news and information. You can follow us on Twitter @ tworowtimes and reach us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/tworowtimes. Our main office number is 519-900-5535.

If you’re interested in being that person for your area, please contact us via email at tworowtimes@gmail.com or call Tom at 519-900-6013.

The Two Row Times is a hybrid business model of print and web-based publishing that uses social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to build our media reach. We are aiming to become a powerful, engaged, and multiplatform news produc- Distribution: tion and distribution system advancing the interests of Onkwehon:we people throughWe are printing 10,000 copies of our pre-launch introductory publication.

Editorial Direction:

About our logo:

The Two Row Times takes an “everybody has a voice” philosophy. There are many important issues facing Onkwehon:we (Native) people and we will strive to offer both sides of any issue and let the reader decide.

We privilege the voice of no faction or group over the other, and we provide space for all Native opinions to thrive as long as they express themselves in a respectful (and non-libelous) fashion.

Our mandate is to be relevant to the Onkwehon:we community and we hope to inspire its members with good news and by highlighting local achievements and successes. But at the same time, we will not shy away from covering complicated and contentious stories of interest to our readership.

The Two Row Times will also have an extensive sports section and detailed coverage of native arts and culture. Our coverage will not just come from our staff, but from a network of contributing writers from reserves across Ontario. We will also encourage readership participation by taking advantage of the interactive opportunities of the internet.

The Two Row Times is poised to become the most influential and well read Native news publication in Ontario. With the advent of the worldwide “Idle No More” movement it has become apparent that Native issues and concerns are overflowing into the national and international global arena. This is an excellent time to launch an initiative such as ours, and we plan to take full advantage of this moment.

The Two Row Times logo was designed by condoled Onondaga traditional Chief Arnold Jacobs, a very successful artist, illustrator and graphic designer from Six Nations.

"I am happy to get the meaning of the Two Row to a broader audience," says Jacobs.

He has known Jonathan Garlow’s father Andrew for a long time. They went to the same school together at Central Tech in Toronto.

Jacobs and Jonathan also have had some creative history together.

"When I draw up something, it has to be digitized from there," he explains.

"Jonathan has done this for me for a long time and he does great work, so I was happy to do the logo when he asked."

The Two Row Wampum image, although Haudenosaunee in origin, is also recognized as the basis of all subsequent treaties with other Onkwehon:we Nations as well.

"Jonathan told me they wanted to use the Two Row itself, and they wanted it in a circle with the three rows between, but to keep it simple," says Jacobs who followed that request beautifully with the Two Row Times bold name and striking round Two Row Wampum image.

But he also added an element some may not recognize. Around the round Two Row medallion are 50 beads, or circles representing beads, which represent the 50 Chiefs of the Confederacy and two thin purple lines (rows) above and below the name with the Two Row also filling the "o's" in the name.

Mississauga and worked on producing a variety of different newspapers. After 13 years with Metroland, David was hired at Ricter Web Publishing, and worked on a variety of commercial projects over the next 8 years. He and his family then moved to Cultus, ON, with David returning to the newspaper business in Tillsonburg where he worked for Sun Media. After 20 years, his department was outsourced with the production eventually going to India.

David’s most recent position has been with Tekawennake Publications on Six Nations of the Grand River Territory.

“Working on a first nations publication has been very rewarding and exciting,” he says.

David’s connection to Six Nations comes through his maternal grandmother, a Mohawk of the Wolf Clan.

His father is from the Mississaugas of the New Credit

and his grandfather was a Wahta Mohawk. His grandfather attended residential school but his grandmother's family would not allow her to go.

“When the Reclamation of Kanonhstaton (Douglas Creek Estates - Caledonia) began I was working in Tillsonburg,” he recalls.

“Every one of the many mainstream newspapers I read at the time commented in their editorials on the situation in Caledonia. It seemed they all saw the situation the same way without asking what the native side of the story was. My hope is that, in our new publication, we will be brave enough to see both sides of a story and present the news in an educational way for all peoples.”

Arnold Jacobs ... more than an artist, more than a Chief

By Jim Windle

SIX NATIONS Onondaga Chief Arnold Jacobs, of Two Turtles Fine Art Studio located in the Middleport Plaza on Highway #54, Six Nations, is an internationally recognized artist who has seen his work fly around the world - literally.

Jacobs went to highschool in Caledonia and like most high-school students he wondered where his journey would go from there and what he would do for a living once he completed his formal education.

“I was always good at art, so I thought maybe I’d find some kind of art course after high school,” recalls Jacobs. “I found one, it was just a small three room school upstairs in

an office space in Toronto.

One of those rooms was for an art course. I think it was only a 10 month course or something. Really short.”

After a few months Jacobs realized he wasn’t learning much, so he began looking elsewhere.

While boarding in Toronto he met another Native artist from Kettle Point, Barry Milliken who was attending classes at Central Tech. After talking to him, Jacobs decided he would try to transfer there.

Indian Affairs helped him make that transition and Jacobs began going to Central full time.

“I took some of my drawings to a teacher there and she suggested that instead of taking the four year course, I could start in the second year of their five year program,” Jacobs recalls.

He says he learned a lot in those years.

“We took photography, line drawing, pottery, and industrial design,” says Jacobs.” I really liked that.

I remember we had to design a toy. I did a wooden hot rod that had a mechanism in it so that when the wheels rolled the radiator cap would go up and down.

I got a good mark for that.”

Jacobs graduated that course in around 1966. He laments having lost that diploma somewhere but he still has his report card.

He was fortunate enough to get a job right out of school at a packaging plant in Toronto where he worked for a time.

By then Jacobs had met and married Isabel Montour, who was teaching at Six Nations at the time and did not want to move to Toronto. Jacobs commuted

enue from $50,000 a year to $160,000.

“The problem with this business is that if you become too successful and build up a lot of new and lucrative accounts, some suit will eventually come in and decide they can no longer afford you and fire you for a younger person who they can pay less while keeping your accounts,” says Lank.

“But what Jonathan is proposing here with the TRT is exciting to me. Getting in early, it will be fun to help make it a big success. I love the energy here.”

demic journals to books.

He was a founding editor of the journal Upping the Anti and was on its editorial team from 2005 to 2012. Tom has a Masters in Political Science from York University and is working towards his PhD in the same program - specializing in Canadian politics and Indigenous land rights. He has published numerous articles and book chapters in a variety of different academic and non-academic publications.

Since the reclamation at Kanonhstaton began in 2006, Tom has worked closely with a wide range of community members from Six Nations and local non-native residents in seeking to promote the values of the Two Row Wampum. He helped to organize the April 28th Peace and Friendship walk in Caledonia in 2012 and is a founding member of the Two Row Society, an organization of Onkwehon:we and non-Onkwehon:we people who are building a movement to uphold the principles of the Two Row Wampum upon the Haldimand Tract.

(Photo by Jim Windle) every day for about a year before the travel became just too much.

The still newly married Jacobs then took a job at Gryphon Printing in Hamilton. Although still a commute, it wasn’t as long. He stayed there for 15 years between 1970 and 1985 before deciding to strike out on his own career.

“The main reason I did that was that I noticed that at our schools back home there was no teaching of our culture or our history or anything like that, even though the teachers were Native.” recalls Jacobs. “So I thought the kids coming up should know their culture, like the Clans and things like that.”

Jacobs turned his Creator given talent towards educating people, even his

own people, about Haudenosaunee culture and traditions.

The first piece he sold as a young budding artist was a painting depicting the Great Tree of Peace with the various Clan animal symbols gathering around it and an Eagle flying overhead. He has a lithograph of that piece hanging in his studio today and has sold many copies over the years since.

“In order to bring some money in, I realized I had to sell prints,” Jacobs says.

“But to get the prints done, I had to sell the original to the printer in those days.”

That is what launched his career as a recognized Native artist.

Since then he has created and sold many others works. But he has also

branched out in other directions as well with his “teaching” art.

Jacobs’ first storefront studio was located in the Iroquois Plaza in downtown Ohsweken before moving to the “Log Cabin” plaza on Highway #54, where iC Computers is today. In 2002 he moved to his current location at the Middleport Plaza.

About a dozen years ago his “flying eagle” design was selected from among submissions by Native artists from across Canada to adorn one of Air Canada’s new Boeing 767’s.

Besides being recognized as a much sought after Native artist, Jacobs serves his community and his people as a condoled Onondaga Confederacy

Chief, carrying on the title from his older brother Oliver Jacobs who served in that role for nearly 40 years before his death three years ago.

NOTICE OF STUDY COMMENCEMENT & PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE

The County of Brant has retained Morrison Hershfield Limited (MH) to conduct a Preliminary and Detailed Design and Environmental Assessment Study for the Reconstruction of Bethel Road and Associated Works, including the widening of Bethel Road and Highway 24, as well as Intersection and Interchange Improvements within the Study Area.

This study is following the process for a Group ‘C’ project in accordance with the Ministry of Transportation’s Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Transportation Facilities, 2000 (Class EA) with the opportunity for public input throughout the study. An Environmental Screening Document (ESD) documenting the process will be prepared for internal distribution.

Jacobs has also designed and produced beautiful solid silver clan pendants he markets as “Wild Blings”. (Photo by Jim Windle) Continued from page 4 Tourism. That group sold Air Canada on the idea but it took several years to come to fruition. Even after Jacobs was informed that his design had been selected as the winner, it took two years for it to actually come about. But when it did, Jacobs and his family were invited to the Pearson Airport in Toronto for the grand unveiling and the proud take off on its inaugural flight to Australia. Since then Jacob’s design has flown around the world several times.

Jacobs is not sure if the

Air Canada 767 is still in service today, but in 2008, he got a surprise when a visitor to his studio told him that he was the pilot of that plane.

“He said he flies that plane all over, so I got him to write a note about it,” says Jacobs.

This note is currently in Jacobs’ studio along with a model of the plain, all of his original art and other mementos in a display area.

More recently, Jacobs designed what he hoped would - be adopted as a new flag for Six Nations of the Grand River Territory.

Although brilliantly creat-

ed with his typical simple yet powerful symbolism of the Grand River, the grass, the sun - as mentioned in the Haldimand Proclamation - the Two Row Wampum and an adaptation of the Hiawatha belt, it did not catch on, but he has hopes that one day it will be accepted by the people to represent the Grand River Territory itself.

“Some wondered why we need a new flag when there is already the Hiawatha Flag,” he says. “But this was never intended to replace that, only to represent our Grand River community specifically.”

TWO ROW TIMES

Wednesday, August 14, 2013

The Two Row Times is a family affair

By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS

The new Two Row Times is the product of years and even generations of hard work and entrepreneurial Native spirit.

Owner and publisher, Jonathan Garlow, inherited this spirit from his father, Andrew Garlow of Garlow Printing and Copy located on Mohawk Road at Six Nations of the Grand River Territory.

“I’ve been in the printing business for half a century now, I guess,” says the senior Garlow. “I started in the printing business at age 22.

I guess I kind of fell into it.”

He recalls becoming friends with a man he worked with in Toronto who showed him the basics of how to run an offset press. And he liked it.

“I kept moving to different places,” he remembers.

“I was just trying to get a little money and gain some experience.”

His life journey then took him to Brantford where he began work at Ricter Web Printing, some 30 years ago. That is where he and Two Row Time’s

Graphic Designer, David LaForce, first met and worked together as the only two Natives in the shop.

David’s connection to

Six Nations comes through his maternal grandmother, a Mohawk of the Wolf Clan. His father is from the Mississaugas of the New Credit and his grandfather was from Wahta Mohawks.

His grandfather attended residential school but his grandmother's family would not allow her to go.

Two years later, Garlow

jumped at the chance to work at Hurley Printing, a union shop in Brantford, and he and LaForce went their separate ways. Now,

decades later, their paths meet again.

In 1994, Garlow gathered up a few dollars, his accumulative knowledge and experience, and opened his own print shop back home at Six Nations, which has been serving the needs of Six Nations and New Credit ever since.

Now, almost 20 years

later, he is helping his son Jonathan make his own move into the news publication business.

Andrew is proud of

what Jonathan is now pursuing, and supports him in every way he can. He is also pleased with the team Jonathan has assembled around himself — a team which includes Andrew’s old co-worker and friend Graphic Designer David LaForce.

“When you start a new thing you have to be around people who believe in what they are doing and put into it whatever it will take to succeed,” says the senior Garlow. “When I started my business, failure was not an option and I’d put in as many hours as it took, many times 16 hour days.”

“It’s a great team Jon has put together,” he says.

“I have every confidence in them all.”

Although a little nervous, as anyone would be going into such an ambitious endeavor, Jon’s wife Nahnda, an Onondaga of the Beaver Clan, is also excited about her husband’s new adventure.

“I’m really excited about the Two Row Times,” says Nahnda. “Our family has gone through a lot the last while with the death of Jon’s brother Jeremy and his mother (Eleanor). I have also recovered from having had breast cancer, and it all kind of happened in a short period of time, so it’s really good to see something new on the horizon — to be walking forward into a new part of this journey.”

She loves to see Jon and

his dad working together with a group of people of the same good mind.

She and Jon are a part of a new generation of young Native entrepreneurs, who bring a whole new approach to the age old business of information sharing.

Nahnda admits to getting the majority of her news and information online, and this is the element of the Two Row Times that most excites her.

“Having a strong social media element has got to be an integral part of the Two Row Times,” she says.

“To be honest I might look at the front page news and

a couple of pages in, but then I go right to the births deaths and classifieds. But I’m on facebook four, five or six times a day.”

She isn’t alone. In fact, within her age group and younger, this is the new normal according to all statistics, which also reveals more than 50% of Native populations are under the age of 30.

Like most Onkwehon:we readers, she has become jaded by the misrepresentation and misinformation being put out as fact in the mainstream media.

This is another reason she believes in her husband’s vision for the Two Row Times.

According to her, it was all the misrepresentation and spin the mainstream media put on the coverage of the reclamation of Kanonhstaton (Caledonia) that turned her off to the corporate media.

“Things were way blown out of proportion and a lot of things were left out,” she recalls.

This being said, there will always be a need for

the printed page as well as the electronic media and the Two Row Times hopes to excel in both forms.

Together and with their extended family and staff the Garlows hope to make a difference and help get the “real” news reported for and about Onkwehon:we people everywhere with the Two Row Times.

Scone Dogs & Seed Beads

By Nahnda Garlow An amazing opportunity has presented itself to me in the last few weeks. And that is, to etch out a place here in the Two Row Times for us to discuss a part of our Haudenosaunee living culture; our artistic expression.

Whether you create beadworks, carvings, pottery, paint, or dance each week there will be a story or discussion on what’s happening in the Haudenosaunee ‘art-o-sphere’.

One thing that already exists in abundance is educational articles that try to give the basics to the non-indigenous community.

It is easy enough to pull up a Google search on ‘what is the smoke dance’ or ‘what does a ribbon shirt look like’? Those stories have been written. My goal is for us to get technical and unafraid of talking shop. For example, what is the difference between English beading needles and the ones made in Japan? How come it’s so controversial to dance Esganye at a pow wow?

And why is it nearly impossible to find good purple

beads?

As we discover the cultural topography of our Confederacy, we become full. That goes for all aspects of the culture, not just the Arts. From gardening and medicines, to who can make the best scone of them all, I am interested in telling these stories, and as we learn together we will bloom.

Dance Responsibly

The year Gramma Rovina got sick, we went to longhouse. We were sitting on the bench together, my Onondaga Beaver grandmother keeping me right under her wings, and it came time to dance. I didn’t know she was sick.

And for some reason when the women got up to dance she didn’t join in. I timidly stayed by her side, unsure of what to do. The women danced right past me and Gramma scolded me…”go on, get out there!”

“Why?” I asked.

“Because it is your responsibility….” She replied.

Of course, like any ten year old being yelled at by their Gramma…I listened!

I ran into line and shuffled my way around the stoves.

This small moment became significant to me. Later in life, I became a full-time dancer.

Rovina Mabel General died the following spring

of cancer. And twenty three years later I found myself facing that same word; Cancer.

I will never forget April 25th. Hearing the words, “… you have breast cancer…” took the dance right out of my legs. It took my breath away, robbed me of that ‘thing’ inside that propels each step forward one after the other.

The following weekend

Gathering of Nations Pow Wow – the world’s largest competition Pow-Wow – was broadcast live over the internet. There I sat, emotionally exhausted in front of my computer. I felt like my life was hanging in the balance. I didn’t do dishes for days, or cook, or shower.

Everything felt like it was ending. Until I saw them dance.

As I was watching the dancers from all nations give it their all and dance their hardest, slowly my heart began to turn. As I watched the people dance – their feet propelled my heart forward and suddenly I experienced what it means to dance for those who can’t.

And Gramma’s words came back to me again. “…it is your responsibility…”

I actually tried to bargain my way out of dancing all those years ago. I didn’t think I was good at Esganye and was afraid the other girls would make fun of me. But Gramma scolded me again, saying “All these old people up here are too sick to dance, but you are

healthy and young…you have to dance because it is your responsibility.”

Now I see clearly. Gramma Rovina, and all those other ladies needed me to dance. They needed that active life-giving Spirit within me to propel their hopes forward to a new generation of little Onkwehon:we.

It’s what the Creator has given us to share when we dance, and it’s what the people receive when we dance. It is healing, and it overflows in abundance when we share in that experience together.

A year and half later I can gratefully declare that I am now cancer free. Somehow it feels like a teaching in my life has become complete. Perhaps it is fully one facet of why we dance – and it unites us. It’s not a Haudenosaunee “teaching”, or an Onondaga “way”, but something good that is able to permeate nationhood, race, and all forms of religiosity. I have received hope.

And now that I am well, and beginning to dance again I will pass on that hope…because it is my responsibility.

ONTARIO ENERGY BOARD NOTICE Niagara Region Wind Corporation has applied to the Ontario Energy Board to build a high-voltage transmission line.

Learn More.

Niagara Region Wind Corporation (Niagara) is asking the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) for permission to construct approximately 44 kilometres of 115 kilovolt (kV) electricity transmission line and associated facilities. The line would connect the company’s Niagara Region Wind Farm to the provincial power grid.

Niagara is also asking the OEB to approve the form of agreement it offers to landowners to use their land for routing or construction of the proposed line.

A map of the proposed route for the transmission line is printed below.

Niagara’s application to the OEB hearing concerns construction of the proposed transmission line only. It does not concern the construction or operation of the Niagara Region Wind Farm itself.

THE ONTARIO ENERGY BOARD IS HOLDING A PUBLIC HEARING The OEB will hold a public hearing to consider Niagara’s requests. During this hearing, the OEB will consider evidence and arguments by Niagara and by individuals, municipalities and others whose interests would be affected.

The OEB hearing will consider specific issues required by law.

The Ontario Energy Board Act specifies the issues the OEB is to consider in making its decision. If you wish to participate in the OEB hearing, it is important for you to understand what these issues are.

As required by the Ontario Energy Board Act the OEB will consider three issues: l The interests of consumers with respect to prices and the reliability and

quality of electricity service;

l In a manner consistent with the policies of the Government of Ontario, the promotion of the use of renewable energy sources; and l The form of agreement that Niagara offers to landowners affected by the

route or location of the transmission line.

The OEB hearing is not the only approval that Niagara requires. For example, the Ontario Ministry of the Environment will review environmental issues using its Renewable Energy Approvals process.

BE INFORMED You have the right to information regarding Niagara’s application. You can: l Read Niagara’s application on the OEB’s website (See below under

“Learn More”).

l Sign up to be an observer, who will automatically receive documents

for the hearing.

HAVE YOUR SAY If you would be affected by the proposed transmission line, you may want to take a more active role in the hearing. You can: l Send the OEB a letter with your comments, which will be considered during the hearing; or l Ask the OEB for permission to be an active participant in the hearing (an intervenor). Intervenors can provide evidence, argue their positions and submit relevant questions to be answered by Niagara (interrogatories). To be an intervenor, a party must be affected by the transmission line in a way that relates directly to the issues the OEB will consider. If you wish to be an intervenor, the OEB must receive your request by August 27, 2013.

LEARN MORE To read the documents concerning this hearing please go to the OEB website www.ontarioenergyboard.ca/, click on “Consumers” and enter file number EB-2013-0203 in the “Find an Application” box. You can also phone Nabih Mikhail at 1-888-632-6273 extension 103 or Stephen Vetsis at 1-888-632-6273 extension 182 with any questions.

Oral and Written Hearings There are two types of OEB hearings – oral and written. The Board intends to use a written hearing for this case unless there is a good reason why an oral hearing is necessary. If you believe an oral hearing is necessary, you must provide written reasons to the OEB by August 27, 2013.

Privacy If you write a letter with your comments, your name and the content of your letter will be put on the OEB’s public record and the OEB website. However, your personal telephone number, address and email address will be removed. If you are a business, all your information will be public. If you apply to become an intervenor, all your information will be public.

The OEB is an independent and impartial public agency. Our goal is to promote a financially viable and efficient energy sector that provides you with reliable energy services at a reasonable cost.

This application was filed under sections 92, 96(2) and 97 of the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998 S.O. 1998, c.15, Schedule B.

Beating of 24-year-old Innu man by Quebec police caught on camera

Unamen Shipu, Raymond Bellefleur, said of the incident: “Police come here and they can’t speak the Montagnais language and they never stay for more than a week. How can you effectively patrol a place you know nothing about?”

APTN has license renewed for 5 years

on basic cable rejected.

But the CRTC’s compromise solution directed all television networks to offer all-Canadian national news services, which would encourage cable providers to pick up Sun Media in their basic cable packages.

A video of two Quebec police (Sûreté du Québec) officers beating a 24-yearold Innu man in Unamen Shipu territory in northeastern Quebec has gone viral. The YouTube video shows Norbert Mestenapeo – who does not appear to be resisting – receiving multiple blows to the head.

The assault occurred in La Romaine, an Innu First Nation community. Unamen Shipu had its own police force until 2008, when it could no longer operate due to budgetary constraints, at which point policing was taken over by Sûreté du Québec.

The incident has been seized upon by the Assembly of First Nations of Quebec to call for a return to Aboriginal policing of the community. Grand chief of

The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) renewed the ‘mandatory carriage’ license of APTN for another five years, providing the Aboriginal broadcaster with a place on basic cable and $38 million in funding that comes with it. APTN provides programming in 30 different Onkwehon:we languages, as well as English and French. APTN had applied for an increase of its subscriber fees from 25 to 40 cents, but received 31 cents per cable subscriber.

Bella Laboucan-McLean is the latest victim on the long list of Onkwehon:we women who have been murdered, disappeared, or have died under suspicious circumstances in Canada.

Let’s Talk Native…with John Kane Sekon!

Let me first say that I am honored to be a part of the Two Row Times inaugural edition. While I hope this publication maintains a high level of responsibility in its reporting, I hope it doesn’t play this so safe that it loses its purpose.

As I make a commitment to contribute, it makes sense for my initial offering to be an introduction. I am a Kanienkehaka from Kahnawake. I am married to an Onyota aka and I live in the territory of the Onondowaka; Cattaraugus to be more specific. My column bears the same name as my weekly radio show that airs and streams live each Sunday night 9-11 from WWKB 1520 AM in Buffalo, NY. Streaming can be caught on the station’s website at www.kb1520.com on the TuneIn app for smart phones, at www. tunein.com and on the blog I have been writing since 2008: www.letstalknativepride.blogspot.com.

My “Let’s Talk Native…” radio show is entering its fourth year and has not only earned me the spot as the go-to guy to weigh in on Native issues in the region but has gotten me radio airtime in Albany, New York, DC and Minneapolis as a guest and even host. Television interviews include a dozen appearances on WGRZ’s 2 Sides, WCNY’s Capitol Report, Time Warner Cable’s YNN and Al Jazeera. I also have a “Let’s Talk Native…” Facebook group page. Join the group and find links to shows, articles, sites, videos and, of course the Two Row Times.

I don’t bring “buffalo speeches” to radio or television and I certainly won’t to the Two Row Times. I offer opinions that are often provocative at first glance but oddly familiar and embraceable even if never quite heard my way before. While plenty of people, Onkwehonwe or otherwise, will certainly not always agree with my views, conversion is not my goal; conversation is.

Allow my words and much of what you’ll find here in the pages of the TRT to start or grow a conversation in your home, in your family, in your community and beyond. Let that conversation affect the changes that we all desire. Share your own thoughts with the Two Row Times, on Facebook, on my radio show and my blog. Got a topic, a suggestion, praise, criticism or just a different thought on a current topic; share it and let the conversation build.

My contributions here to TRT will never be more than a few paragraphs. I’ll make my point boldly and quickly, and reading my column will never feel like a homework reading assignment. I’ll dig for the seldom heard and rarely reported items associated with our daily lives and the world we live in.

Reading the LTN column will arm readers with confidence to speak up and speak out.

Look for my “Let’s Talk Native…” contribution each week here in The Two Row Times.

Three Indigenous women killed in Toronto in last few months

First Nation also plunged to her death from a condo in April. In May, Terra Gardner was killed by a freight train near Yonge and Summerhill after having received death threats at a time when she had been compelled to testify in an upcoming murder trial.

The United Nations Committee on Elimination of Discrimination Against Women will be sending special rapporteurs to Canada this summer and fall, finally responding to the awareness and pressure generated by years of work of grassroots Indigenous women and supporting activists who have drawn attention to the nearly 600 documented cases of missing or murdered Indigenous women.

Federal Conservative Justice Minister Peter McKay recently dismissed calls for a national Inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women that was backed by provincial and territorial leaders meeting at the NiagaraOn-The-Lake Summit after their meeting with aboriginal leaders.

The Two Row Times will keep on top of local Six Nations sports events as well as regional tournaments of human-interest stories about Aboriginal athletes.

For this introductory pre-

TWO ROW TIMES

launch issue we give you a few little teasers.

This has been a very busy week for local sports as four Six Nations lacrosse teams were fighting for shots at national cham-

pionships.

The MSL Six Nations Chiefs have been having one of their best years in many and are legitimate contenders for the Mann Cup. But there a still a few

The first wrinkle to appear on the face of the 2013 Rebels showed itself Monday night as the Rebs suffered their first loss of the final series against the Green Gaels, and their first loss of the entire season. Bo Henhawk was one a only a few Rebels who came to win, scoring two goals and two assists.

The Gaels came strong with their back pressed firmly against the wall and put in 60 full minutes of 100% effort. The Rebels did not and that was the difference. See the full story at www. tworowtimes.com (Photo by Jim Windle)

The Six Nations Pro-Fit Chiefs have only the Peterborough Lakers between themselves and a shot at the Canadian Lacrosse League‘s Mann Cup and a return to the pinnacle of men’s amateur lacrosse in Canada. Peterborough and Brooklyn are in a tooth and nail battle in the other semi-final series. See full story at www.tworowtimes.com (Photo by Jim Windle)

hurdles to get over before then.

The Sr. B Six Nations Rivermen closed out their inaugural season. Losing to the St. Catharines Saints.

The Jr. A Arrows Express

were eliminated in a heartbreaker at the ILA this past Sunday night at he ILA to the Whitby Warriors.

The Rebels experienced the bitter taste of defeat Monday night at the ILA

but are still in control of the series against the Green Gaels of Clarington.

Watch for full sports coverage in next week’s Two Row Times in our first official edition.

Six Nations Rivermen head coach Stew Montour guided the Six Nations Rivermen to the league finals in their first year in the OLA Jr. B circuit. Despite the disappointing loss to the St. Catharines Saints, Montour is pleased with the brand new team’s success. See the full story at www.tworowtimes.com (Photo

The dejected Six Nations Arrows Express suffer the agony of defeat after their Game #7 loss against the Whitby Warriors Monday night at the ILA in Six Nations. The Arrows finished first in the regular season and made it all the way to the Ontario Lacrosse League finals. The two teams each won three games coming into the decisive Game #7, which the Arrows lost 9-8. See the full story at www.tworowtimes. com (Photo by Jim Windle)

Heartbreaking loss for Arrows in the best series ever

By Jim Windle SIX NATIONS After a first place finish in the OLA Jr A regular season, a 3-1 quarter final win over the Kitchener-Waterloo Braves, a 4-1 series win over the Peterborough Lakers in the semi- finals, and the scare of a skin disease spreading through the team which sidelined

some of the teamsʼ star players for a few games,

the 2013 season came

down to Game #7 for the Six Nations Arrows Express at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena.

The final showdown against the second place Whitby Warriors came Sunday night at the ILA as the Arrowsʼ and the Whitby Warriorsʼ battled to win the OLA Jr. A lacrosse title and a trip to New Westminster, British Columbia for the Minto Cup championships.

But it was not to be for the Arrows this year as the visiting Whitby Warriors scratched out a 9-8 win over Six Nations before a full house at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena.

The game reflected the entire series with both teams clone images of

each other. In fact, over the seven games played, each team scored an identical 77 goals.

The series began with a 15-12 Six Nations overtime win in Game #1 and a 12-11 Arrows win in Game #2. Whitby responded with a 12-10 win and tied the series with an 8-7 win. Game #5 went to the Arrows, 1410, but Whitby tied the series again by defeating the Arrows 15-11 in Whitby to send the deciding Game #7 back to ILA. “Game #7 was indicative of the whole series,” said Whitby coach, Derek Keenan. “I didnʼt think we were very good in the third period, we got two late goals and just kinda gutted it out.”

Both teamsʼ defense and goaltending kept the score pretty well even throughout the game until Whitbyʼs Michael MacDonald netted the tying, and then the winning goal late in the game.

“I know how they (the Arrows) feel, and we

would feel the same,” said Keenan. “There are just two really, really good teams playing here and a great representation for OLA for the Minto Cup.” Jr. A league commissioner Dean McLeod was

beside himself with pride after the game.

“I have been the commissioner for 32 years and there have been a lot of Game #7ʼs, the last one Whitby won was in seven up in Orangeville,”

said McLeod after the presenting Whitby with the MacDonald Trophy as the best Jr.A team in Ontario. “I have never seen a series like this. If this was a 70 game series they would have gone

into this game tied at 35 and 35. That’s how close these teams are. This is the best lacrosse in the world, I don’t care what anyone says. We had around 3,500 people in the

last game up in Whitby last game and a full house tonight. It is great for the game of lacrosse.”

The Arrows last Minto Cup win was in 2007.

They also won in 1992.

Canada’s Number One Public Health Concern The dramatic move to CLASSIFY OBESITY AS A CHRONIC DISEASE Last month the American Medical Association announced the classification of OBESITY as a chronic disease. With the Canadian Medical Association poised to make the same classification this fall the urgency for primary care physicians to provide patients with viable medical solutions, in conjunction with traditional approaches, has now intensified. With an astounding 66% of the North American population either obese or overweight, and with this number expected to reach 87% by 2030, it is imperative that an interdisciplinary effort be implemented to help slow, even reverse, this disturbing trend.

However, according to the American Medical Association’s (AMA) report, simple weight loss does not imply a sustained result. Simply suggesting a patient adopt a healthier lifestyle relies on a patient’s motivation, which too often falters, ultimately leading to failure. Now recognized as a disease, patients and their primary care physicians, should have at their disposal reliable therapeutic options that adhere to evidence based medicine, helping them towards a healthier lifestyle. Therefore patients need medical solutions that not only help reduce their excess fat mass but also help to sustain their results.

A REVOLUTIONARY NEW THERAPY: histological evidence reveals Zerona induces a transient opening within the protective barrier of the cell causing the discharge of stored fat.

 Level 1 FDA, double blind, randomized, placebo controlled, multi-site clinical trial  First and only device ever approved by the FDA for the circumferential reduction of the waist, hips, thigh, and arms  FDA trials proved 3-9 inches in 2 weeks  Up to 40 inches (101cm) or more with additional treatments  Cholesterol Levels lowered on average 13% in 2 weeks as verified in FDA clinical trials  Enhanced Muscle Performance  Recovery and Rapid Cellular Regeneration  Reduction of inflammation  ZERO pain

As seen at the PRIMARY CARE TODAY conference in Toronto this May

Zerona has undergone extensive clinical analyses and has been awarded the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Health Canada clearance for the circumferential reduction of the waist, hips, thighs, and arms. Zerona is a low-level laser device that effectively reduces the size of fat cells. In addition to the circumferential reduction, Zerona has been shown to lower both serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels in as little as two weeks. This secondary medical benefit is believed to happen by reverting expanded adipose mass, which is associated with the synthesis of noxious adipocytes, back to a healthy lean state.
