By Jim WindleSIX NATIONS

The Six Nations #1 Team will be representing the community at the National Firefighters Competition in Moncton, New Brunswick, in August, thanks to a first place finish at Saturday’s 22nd Annual Ontario Na-tive Firefighters competition hosted at Six Nations.Five teams competed in-

cluding two Six Nations teams.

The 2012 National will be hosted by the Elsipogtog First Nation in Moncton, Saturday, August 18th.At the end of the rigorous

competition, Six Nations #1 and Oneida finished in a dead heat, forcing a show-down tie breaker.

Each team set up a crew of five, four hose bearers and one at the pumper. On signal they had to pull a four inch

hose several feet, set up, sig-nal the pumper man to turn on the water and knock down two targets with the water.

The Six Nations team completed the exercise fast-er than the Oneida team and

won the right to represent Ontario at the Nationals, rel-egating Oneida to the runner-up position. Garden River came in

third, Chippewa of the Thames came in fourth and Six Nations’ second entry, the A Team, came in fifth place.

The winning team con-sists of team captain, Jesse Brant, assistant captain Ron-nie Johnson, Matthew Miller, Mark Scarrett, Greg Hack-borne and alternate Dusty Thibert.

Last year, Six Nations was not able to send a team to the competition which was even-tually won by Team Manito-ba. Ontario was represented by the Walpole Island Fire Department.

After several years of talk and some debate, the Mis-sissauga of the New Credit finally broke ground for the new Community Hall Friday across from Lloyd S. King Elementary School. Until now, any large community gatherings took place in the school gym, which isn’t al-ways the best place for such things, as both Chief Bryan

LaForme and Councillor Cec Sault point out.“This meets our needs as a

community,” says LaForme, “We have a lot of community events but we are always im-posing on other groups such as the school gym.

Sault concurs.“I feel we have been des-

perately in need of a Com-munity Hall,” he says. “The Lloyd S King school gym was designed to be just that, a gym, not a Community

Hall.”The total estimated cost

of the new structure is about $2.3 million. In the future, the design can also accom-modate solar power should the community wish to go that route.It will have a full commer-

cial kitchen, and will seat up to 400 people. But it is de-signed to host two smaller events at once with a sliding partition.“We’ve been waiting a

long time for this. It’s a good day today. It’s been on the table for about five years and we are finally seeing something happen,” said La-Forme. “The timing is good now. We really need this and I think it is good for the com-munity to be able to gather here. Its going to the theirs so we are happy about it and we look forward to it.”

An investigation by the On-tario Provincial Police Crimi-nal Investigation Branch has cleared a Six Nations Police officer following a shooting incident that occurred on May 20th , 2012.Constable David Lickers

had pursued a suspect on foot into a wooded area that day. The suspect left the woods and entered a vehicle waiting for the suspect on Sixth Line. “Constable Lickers ordered the suspects to stop numer-ous times and while doing so the driver of the vehicle drove directly at the officer,” said a statement released by Six Na-tions Police on Friday. “Fear-ing for his life, he [Lickers] used his service handgun and fired four shots at the driver of the vehicle before determin-ing which direction to dive out out of the way to safety to avoid being killed by the oncoming vehicle.”The Ontario Provincial Po-

lice Criminal Investigation Branch (C.I.B.), under the direction of Acting Detective Inspector Brad Nunn, was called in by the Six Nations Police Service to investigate the shooting of a civilian by a member of the service.As a result of Constable

Lickers firing his handgun, the driver of the vehicle was struck in the upper left shoul-der with a bullet. The driver and passenger fled the scene, but were arrested a short while later behind the Sour Springs Plaza.The OPP were asked to in-

vestigate the shooting, and the investigation was conducted under the supervision of Act-ing Detective Brad Nunn.The statement issued by

Six Nations Police said, “The findings of the OPP C.I.B. are that the accused represented an imminent threat to the Six Nations Officer who was ex-ecuting his lawful authority

and that the force used to stop the threat was justified. There is no finding of crim-inal wrongdoing on the part of the Six Nations Police offi-cer. The investigation is com-plete.”

OFFICER CLEARED IN SHOOTING INCIDENT


By Stephanie DearingOHSWEKEN

For the past 24 years, she was one of the driving forces behind Ganohkwasra Fam-ily Assault Support Servic-es, but, now that she is 80 years old, Shirley Farmer has retired from the Board of Directors and she plans on “staying home and relax-ing.”But she’ll always be avail-

able for Ganohkwasra and will be joining the elder’s committee as soon as that is established.She became involved with

Ganohkwasra in 1988, and Shirley is demure about how she got involved. “To be hon-est with you, my sister forced me,” she said.Shirley was feted on Fri-

day by Ganohkwasra staff and a few family mem-bers, with several heart-felt and tearful thanks and well wishes proffered by Shirley’s colleagues. The antics of the Bingo Ladies helped keep things in balance, playing up the importance of the Family Assault Service and keeping the audience in stitches while they did.“Ah has the fleas,” ex-

claimed Tricksey, one of the three “sisters” making up the Bingo Ladies act, caus-ing shrieks of laughter to fill the room. “Ah was so dumb I couldn’t pass my own blood test.”

The seeds of Ganohk-wasra began with Shirely’s sister, Wilma General. Exec-utive Director, Sandra Mon-tour, outlined the history of Ganohkwasra, saying Wilma had opened up her home to women and children seek-ing a safe place to stay. When Shirley returned to Six Na-tions from the United States, she was recruited by Wilma to be involved in the shelter.

Michelle Farmer, Shir-ley’s daughter, explained that Wilma had essentially raised Shirley, as well as another younger sister and brother, so it is not surprising that Shirley shares the same val-ues her older sister lived by. “She’s always helped peo-ple,” Michelle said of her mother. “She let people live at our house at times.”Shirley explained her in-

volvement by saying, “It’s just a way of life. It’s what you have in your heart.” Shir-ley said she always “believed women shouldn’t be treated with violence.”Elected Chief William

Montour attended the festiv-ities, crediting Shirley, who owned the Ohsweken Gro-cery Store, with bringing the first bank to Six Nations. He recalled being an elected councillor in 1986 when Wil-ma went to council to speak to the need for a shelter.“Band Council wanted [the

shelter] in the back corner,” said Elected Chief Montour.

But he said hiding the shel-ter would work to hide the problem. “It’s on Chiefs-wood Road so all can see.” Speaking of the visits paid to the new shelter by other In-digenous communities, Mon-tour said, “They were totally blown away.”Becky Harrison presented

Shirley with an eagle feather on behalf of the Board of Di-

rectors. “Shirley’s heart will always be here,” she said, adding she was looking for-ward to the time when Shirley would provide the guidance of an elder. Shirley “brought humour to the board and grounded the board.”One board member, who

has served for 24 years as well, Alice Bomberry, car-ried many memories of their

involvement over the years. “Between Shirley and Wil-ma, we knew things were go-ing to happen – good things.” She said she was “so glad to see the caring and concern in the community,” and said when she grew up, “my fam-ily could have used that kind of support.”“Shirley, I love you and

you’ll always be a part of

this organization,” said San-dra Montour. “We will con-tinue growing from here. You are one of our shining stars, and we love you.”Shirley was asked to speak,

but she said, “I don’t like tears, and if I say much more, I’ll be broke right down. This whole place has been a lot to me and my family. It’s a good place. It’s come so far.”

It appears that Gary McHale is now suing Hydro One for not seeing the world as he and his followers do.McHale has posted on his

website and released to the media his communications with Hydro One, where he is threatening legal action against the corporation, its board members, and their lawyer, Joseph Agostino, ac-cusing them of “encouraging criminal behaviour” by not removing or allowing him and his group to remove the hydro tower remains from the Argyle street entrance of Kanonhstaton.After taking away some

rotting hydro spools and a

fence, which resulted in stir-ring up tensions between Six Nations and Haldimand resi-dents, McHale had designs on removing the hydro tower remains that were once used as a defensive barricade by Six Nations land protectors in 2006 and again briefly in 2007.

In a return letter to McHale, Hydro One confirmed that “the towers currently on the road are under Hydro One's control - they are not aban-doned. As such Hydro One is not authorizing removal of these towers to any other location.”

Further, Agostino states, “Hydro One Inc. does not agree with or accept your as-sertions in your letter about Hydro One and the tower to

which you refer ... You have no authority, consent of co-lour of right, explicit or im-plicit, to remove the tower, to place it anywhere else or to deliver it for scrap.”The Hydro One response

was c.c.ed to the Ontario Provincial Police, Haldimand Council and Mayor Ken Hewitt, for clarity should McHale attempt to remove the tower parts without Hydro One approval.

McHale reasons in his re-

sponse to Agostino that by not complying with his wish-es, “Hydro One wishes the tower to continue to block the road.”

The tower in question in fact is not blocking any road-way, including the entrance to Kanonhstaton.

McHale continues by tak-ing a sarcastic shot at Agos-tino saying , “I am surprised that you, as a lawyer and offi-cer of the court, would write a letter that establishes that

your client wishes his prop-erty to continue to block a road illegally. I wasn’t aware that lawyers could encourage criminal behaviour.”

In the past, McHale has sued or attempted to sue several media outlets, Julian Fantino, former Commis-sioner of the OPP, individual OPP officers and others who refuse to see his particular point of view or do his bid-ding by the removal of Na-tives from the Kanonhstaton

land, which has been under registered claim by Six Na-tions for decades and has yet to be resolved by either On-tario or Canada.Negotiations to that effect

broke down a few years ago after Six Nations and Ontar-io approved of bringing in a mediator to help break the impass. Canada would not agree with that concept and removed itself from the pro-cess. Talks have not resumed since.

About a dozen former stu-dents and children of former students of the Mohawk In-stitute met for a picnic and games under the trees in front of the former school, known most familiarly as the “Mush Hole.”“I want everybody to be

happy,” said picnic organizer Laurel Curley. “There's all kinds of research [on what happened at the school]. We got an out-of-court settle-ment.” Curley said she wants to organize an information session with a lawyer for survivors who hope to put in a claim for abuse by Sep-tember 19th , but she didn't want to talk about that.“I'd rather talk about hap-

py stuff. I'm looking for an adult to have a [water bal-loon] fight with,” Laurel Curley said. And she busied herself with filling up water

balloons and playing with the few children who were present before she served up her non-diabetic elderberry pie (no sweetener).But survivor Rosilyn Sears

wasn't so hesitant to recall the past. She too had only attended for 10 months, but said she suffered post trau-matic stress disorder as a re-sult, and confessed she had difficulty raising her son un-til she got into counselling.“I did a work placement at

the library,” after the school closed, Sears recalled. “I worked for Alice Bomberry in the same room I slept in. That was very hard.” Sears said most of her memories of the school were blocked out, but recalled being beat-en with a horse strap for sitting on the stairs at one point. One of the hardest things for her was being sep-arated from her little sister. “I hardly ever saw her, only in the playroom I saw her,”

she said.She said their mother was

discouraged from visiting them, but when she insisted on a visit, they were super-vised “so we wouldn't say too much. If we did, we'd get a licking.” Another pain-ful memory for Sears was the loss of a gift from her mother. “Mother gave me a doll for Christmas. I tried to take it to bed with me, but the house mother caught me and took it. She threw it in the garbage. It was the only thing I had of my mother.”Laurel said she had attend-

ed the school for 10 months between 1969 and 1970, as did her brother, Kelly Cur-ley. “I was here the day the Mush Hole died and that's why I was celebrating.” The school, which opened in 1831, closed in 1970, a year after the Government of Canada took it over.Laurel's brother, Kelly re-

members being 13 years old

when he was put into the school. On a walk around the building, which is dete-

riorating alarmingly, Kelly said the former school build-ing should be repaired. “As

long as it's here, it's a hor-rible reminder to Canada of what they've done.”

Kelly Curley demonstrates how he and other boys would escape out of their dormitory rooms at the top of the Mohawk Institute after hours. The boys would go to the store, or rummage at the dump for food, he said. Some of the older boys knew how to get over to the girl’s dor-mitory, and would visit with girls.

The Wind Farms of changeThe sparks continue to fly between some members of the Elected Band

Council and the HDI over the Samsung issue. Councillor Helen Miller, for one, is opposed to two sets of negotiations and

wonders aloud why Elected Council was not asked by Samsung to bring a third party to the party, since, in her understanding anyway, there already exists a partnership agreement for the large green energy project.By paying the required $7,000 fee to the HDI, chump change for these guys,

Samsung may have violated the first agreement. But they too are caught on the horns of the Six Nations governance dilemma as they are being told by the province that they must consult the Confederacy. That puts the Korean giant in a very awkward position since the province and they have a much larger agreement which is worth tens of millions.How to keep a balance in such treacherous, shark infested waters as the Six

Nations internal politic will be occupying a lot more time and energy than these off-shore developers ever dreamed of.Other green energy companies, big and small, are watching closely as well,

and it is assumed that if Ontario is ordering Samsung to deal with the HDI, the same goes for them too. In fact, several similar companies are on the same treadmill.We are told that Windrush Windfarm — a project of Schneider Power — has

paid its $7,000 to the HDI to open talks for their project in Arthur, Ontario, and, we are told, have been given the green light, however no one outside of the HDI seems to know what, if any, benefit will come to Six Nations.Then there is the Niagara Region Wind Project by the Niagara Region Wind

Corporation in the Grimsby region; the Port Dover and Nanticoke Wind Proj-ect by Capital Power set for the Nanticoke area; Summerhaven and Cones-togo Wind Farms by NextEra also in the Nanticoke and Arthur regions; and the Union Gas Nanticoke Pipeline, all of which, we are told by what we con-sider a reliable source, have paid their $7,000 fee and have been given a seat in the waiting room.Unfortunately, we have to rely on information brought to us about what the

HDI is actually doing since our several requests for a list of companies they are currently dealing with have been fruitless.It’s really too bad that while all this is going on, within both councils, the

people of Six Nations have been left out of the loop, as it were, while both have bent over backwards declaring their total transparency with the people.For the HDI, they say that all this info is there for the asking, or if the people

really want to know they should go to the Longhouse meetings. In the case of the Elected Council, they are just as closed mouthed about developing deals as the HDI. But that just may be the nature of the beast when it comes to dealing with

Canadian, or international corporations. There is always a confidentiality clause that runs opposed to the openness of Haudenosaunee law and keeps everything hush until it’s too late to say yes or no. Sure, both say the community will have their say once the details are in place, but as we found out in the Elected Council’s Samsung deal, even that is easily skewed.We continue to hope for a united Six Nations when all parties will put down

their political weapons and find a way to lead this community ... all of this community and not just their own adherents.

If we believe what HDI Director Hazel Hill says in the story “Samsung to open negotiations with HDI” everything between the HDI and Samsung is just hunky-dory. According to Hazel the HCCC/HDI and Samsung have “established a cooperative and re-

spectful relationship…” Baloney I say! Truth of the matter is Samsung paid $7,000 to the HDI because Hazel and her cohorts threatened that if Samsung didn’t pay the $7,000 and go through the HCCC process 300 people would be at the site to shut down the project. So let’s call a spade a spade eh?Now Aaron Detlor and Hazel claim Samsung is ready to negotiate with the HCCC and will-

ing to sign a “separate agreement”. But the HCCC and the HDI are forgetting Six Nations is a legal partner with Samsung and Pattern Energy in the development of the Grand Renewable Energy Park (GREP) which means Samsung can’t sign a separate agreement of any kind re-garding the GREP unless both Six Nations and Pattern Energy agree. But let’s pretend Samsung does sign a separate agreement with the HCCC/HDI. First of all

despite Detlor’s protests the draft agreement wasn’t available to the community. The only rea-son the draft agreement was made public is because the HCCC found out someone “leaked” the agreement. Detlor’s claims the agreement will be ratified in a week. But how can this be when the HCCC/

HDI didn’t even hold one night of community consultations. Nor did the HCCC hold any clan meetings. The HCCC has no intention of consulting with the community or with the clans. Ac-cording to Detlor, only the chiefs, clanmothers, HDI staff, and citizens/members attending the meetings approved the draft agreement and will ratify the final agreement. Both Detlor and Hazel claim the HCCC process is community driven and that people had

opportunity to participate. They claim the draft agreement was available for people to pick up but that no one had asked for a copy. There were no community meetings and no public an-nouncements or advertisements of the meetings Detlor refers to. So the public had no way of knowing there were meetings taking place or that a draft agreement was being drawn up and approved or that the draft agreement was available for pick up. Again according to Detlor any financial compensation negotiated with Samsung will be kept

confidential. He claims it will only be the chiefs, clanmothers, HDI staff and citizens/members attending the meetings who will approve the financial part of the Benefit Agreement and they will be sworn to secrecy. So the HCCC has no intention of being accountable or transparent to the community.

The community at large will not know how much money the HCCC/HDI would negotiate. And if we don’t know the financial benefit how will we know if it’s benefitting the community? How will we know how much money the HCCC/HDI has received or spent or whatever? We still don’t know how much money the HCCC has received from developers to date. Yet in light of all the above Detlor claims the HCCC/HDI process is a free, open and transparent process that everyone can participate in.The reality of the situation today is the HCCC/HDI is putting the Samsung project in jeop-

ardy. If Samsung cancels the project our community will lose the millions of dollars that was to be generated from this project. Not only that but other potential developers won’t want to do business with Six Nations. Now I know a lot of people don’t want development either here on the reserve or elsewhere in the tract but whether we want to believe it or not the time is coming when Six Nations will need its own source revenue just to survive as a community. The GREP project was to be the beginning of generating our own source revenue.The contents of this letter are my opinions only and not reflective of council as a whole.

New kindergarten graduate, 5 year old Kashaygah Hill, presented the Six Nations Public Library's summer student, Wes Martin, with pennies raised by Kawenni:io/Gaweni:yo stu-dents for the library on Friday morning. Of the students participating from Kindergarten to Grade 4, Kashaygah brought in the most coins. School parent-volunteer Donna Bomberry said the Principal and staff had collected their own coins as well, which will be brought in next week. Bomberrry said she wants to see the school do a similar fund-raiser for the li-brary beginning in September because “the library is an important resource for our com-munity.” The Six Nations Library is fund-raising for a much-needed new building.

The Major Series Six Na-tions Pro-Fit Chiefs continue to earn points with a me-thodical, lunch bucket style of game that has worked for them so far this season. Saturday afternoon, the

Chiefs defeated the Bramp-ton Sr. Excelsiors, the same team they played in the same arena last Saturday after-noon, and came out with the same result and almost the same score. Last week it was an 8-4 win, this week it was 8-5.The Chiefs are now five

wins and two losses closer to the halfway point of the season and share first place with the Brooklin Redmen

after seven games played.A rather odd schedule will

bring the Excelsiors and the Chiefs together for the third time in a row this Thursday night in Brampton before they face the Kitchener-Waterloo Kodiaks at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena, Sunday night, July 8th., at 7 pm. This will also be the fourth meeting with the Ko-diaks this year.

Tom Montour, a veteran of the Chiefs for the last nine years, is happy with this year’s early success but feels his team is not playing up to their abilities yet, de-spite the wins.“We should be winning

by much higher scores,” he said after Saturday’s game. “We’ve got to start playing

better as a team. We need to practice more and get together more as a team to get everybody on the same page.”On the up side, Montour is

glad the Chiefs are winning the close games, especially earlier in the season when, in years past, they would be losing them and not have enough momentum to take them very far into the play-offs.

“I like the looks of this team,” he says. “I think it’s going in the right direction right now. There is no reason why we can’t bring this team back here and put on a show for our fans in the playoffs.”

He thinks this team has the stuff to once again be a Mann Cup contender ... that is with a lot more practice and a little luck.

The Excelsiors took a 2-0 first period lead before

the Chiefs came alive with Clay Hill’s over-the-shoul-der goal which capped off a great set-up by Sid Smith. Brampton answered when Ryan Learn sling-shotted a side arm shot past Jeff Pou-lin in the Chiefs net to make it 3-1.Cody Jamieson ignited the

Chiefs’ fire again at 2:18 of the second period with Colin Doyle and Rhys Duch assist-ing, then assisted on Roger

Vyse’s tying goal at 5:08. Craig Point also earned an assist on the play. Two more Chiefs’ goals

put Six Nations in the driv-er’s seat where they re-mained for the rest of the game.

The Excelsiors came within a goal at 6-5, mid-way through the third but the Chiefs’ were able to fend off the Brampton comeback at-tempt to lodge the 8-5 win.

Chiefs continue their methodical march

The Six Nations Chiefs and the Brampton Excelsiors are getting very familiar with one another. They will meet again, for the third game in a row, this Thursday night in Bramp-ton before they face the Kitchener-Waterloo Kodiaks at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena, Sunday night, July 8th , at 7 pm.

The Six Nations Arrows Express left no doubt they are ready for a serious Min-to Cup run after completing their regular season in St. Catharines Saturday night with a 21-7 romp over the Athletics who were unfor-tunate enough to draw Six Nations as their round one playoff opponents. In the first game of the

best of five series, played Monday at Six Nations, the Arrows continued to pulver-ize the A’s with an 18-1 lam-basting led by Randy Staats’ nine point game by way of two goals and seven assists and Brendan Bomberry’s three goals and three assists.The Athletics looked any-

thing but athletic as the Ar-rows' barrage of offence and stonewall defence made them look like boys against men.

Some might want to ac-cuse the Arrows of running up the score, but accord-ing to them, this is playoff lacrosse and they have no intention of letting up no matter what the score is.

But even at that, they weren’t totally merciless. In the third period the Arrows chose to work on their ball control game rather than continue to fill the net with rubber. Warren Hill stopped 21 of the 22 shots sent his way for the easy win.The next target for the Ar-

rows is to go into the two week 2012 World U-19 Field Lacrosse Champion-ships shut with this series in the bag. Several OLA box lacrosse players will also play on either Team Iro-quois or Team Canada for that series.

The next two games will be in St. Catharines Wednesday and Thursday with games #4 and #5 at the ILA, Friday at 8 pm and Saturday at 2 pm, if neces-sary.The last win of the regular

season on Saturday night at the ILA tied the Arrows and the Whitby Warriors for top

spot in the OLA Jr. A, how-ever, when a goal differen-tial between the two teams was compared, the Arrows came out on top, and will have home floor advantage throughout the playoff sea-son.Saturday night, the Ar-

rows offence was led by Randy Staats who finished the regular season with a a remarkable 12 point game on seven goals and five assists. Johnny Powless chipped in with two goals and seven assists for a nine pointer, and Brendan Bomb-erry scored two and assist-ed on five for seven points. Josh Johnson added two goals and three assists.

The Athletics were nev-er in the game right from the get-go as the Arrows jumped into an 8-3 lead af-ter 20 minutes. Randy Sta-ats scored five Arrows goals in a row between 6:47 and 18:10 of the first period, two of those on the powerplay.The second period was

even worse for the Athlet-ics as Six Nations poured on another nine goals to build a 17-5 score to that point.

With the game well in hand, the Arrows eased off a bit in the third period, out-scoring the A’s 4-2 for the 21-7 final score.

Six Nations outshot St. Kitts 59-30. Both starter Don Alton and reliever War-ren Hill saw action in the Arrows net while Eric Pen-

ney endured the entire game in the St. Catharines cage.Thursday night at the

ILA, the Brampton Excel-siors felt the sting of the red hot Arrows as Six Nations levelled a 16-8 whooping on their GTA guests. Joel Matthews struck first

for the Arrows at 3:59 and Kyle Isaacs added another at 8:23, on a powerplay. Brampton answered quickly with Phillip Caputo’s goal to make it 2-1, but Mat-thews scored his second at 15:02 and Johnny Powless lifted the score to 4-1 before Brampton scored a late one to end the first period with the Arrows ahead 4-2.

There were 11 goals scored in the second, sev-en by Six Nations and four by Brampton. Arrows‘ Shayne Adams delivered the 5-2 goal at 1:04 to get things going for Six Na-tions. Randy Staats and Kyle Issacs scored back to back shorthanded goals at 3:01 and 3:31 but Bramp-

ton responded with two powerplay goals. Other

Six Nations' second pe-riod goals were scored by Vaughn Harris, Seth Oaks, Johnny Powless, his second, and Shayne Adams’ second of the period as the Arrows

took an 11-6 lead into the third period.The Arrows outscored

Brampton 5-2 in the final frame to record the 16-8 win with Warren Hill in net.

The 4-time Founders Cup champions and 2012 Found-ers Cup hosts’ Six Nations Rebels defeated Niagara Thunderhawks 13-7 to sweep the best-of-five Western Con-ference quarter-finals series Friday night before 400 fans at the Iroquois Lacrosse Are-na (ILA). The Rebels’ next oppo-

nent will be the Orangeville Northmen for the West-ern Conference semi-finals which will begin Thursday night, July 5th, at the ILA beginning at 8 pm. Monday, the series goes to Game #2 in Orangeville at theTony Rose Arena before returning to the ILA next Thursday at 8 pm, for Game #3. Game #4, if necessary, is in Orangeville, next Saturday July 14th at 7 pm, and Game #5 if required will be at the ILA Sunday, July 15th, at 7 pm. “We’ve got a few injuries

we are dealing with,” says Executive General Manag-er Wray Maracle. “We’ve got a couple of guys out with shoulder injuries which makes our right side a little soft.”The Rebels have only

three active players on the right side now, but Maracle expects one of those injured players to return in the Oran-geville series and the other by the next round after that.“We’re in a situation now

where if we lose someone else on that side, we will be in a tough spot,” said Mar-acle. The Rebels usually carry

six left handed shots. Friday night, the Reb-

els jumped out to a 3-0 lead on goals by Harris Lemon (0:09), Tony Dox-

tator (7:49) and Jacob Bomberry (9:07) before Niagara got on the board as Scott Johnston (11:02) and Thunderhawks cap-tain, Blade Garlow (13:09) made it a 3-2 game. Reb-els Doxtator (16:05) gave the home team a 4-2 lead head-ing into the first intermission. Rebels outshot Niagara 22-12 in the first period.The second period was a

wide open affair with a lot of end to end action. Dox-tator (6:00) completed his hat-trick. Niagara’s Kervin Jonathan responded just nine seconds later. Wayne Hill (7:26) made it 6-3 for the Rebels. Kyle Henry (10:45) replied with a Thunder-hawks’ powerplay marker while Wayne Hill (11:20) potted his 2nd of the contest for a 7-4 lead after 40 min-utes of play. Rebels outshot Thunderhawks 18-15 in the second period. In the 3rd period, Reb-

els Wayne Hill’s (6:58) hat-trick and game-win-ning-goal started a flur-ry of five goals in the next 1:09. Thunderhawks David Evert (7:08), Rebels Car-ney Johnson (7:17), Niag-ara’s Spencer Allen (7:29) and Rebels Brine Rice (8:07) for a 10-6 Rebels lead. Reb-els Wayne Hill (12:29) scored his 4th of the game. As time became the enemy of the Thunderhawks, Ni-agara pulled their goalie with 5:35 remaining on the game clock only to back-fire as Daniel ‘Bo’ Hen-hawk (14:45) scored into the empty net. Niagara’s Scott Johnston (19:13) scored his 2nd of the game on a pow-erplay while Rebels Kevin Davey (19:38) made it 13-7 to complete the scoring in the series. Rebels finished with an 18-15 edge in shots dur-

ing the third period to finish the night with a 58-42 edge in shots for the entire contest.The Rebels were led

by Wayne Hill (4G, 2A) with a six-point perfor-mance. Tony Doxtator (3G, 2A), Harris Lemon (1G, 4A) and Ian Martin (5A) had five-point nights each. Ja-cob Bomberry (1G, 2A) and Zed Williams (3A) contributed 3-point ef-forts. Carney Johnson(1G, 1A) added 2 points. Sin-gle Rebels points were by Brine Rice (1G), Daniel ‘Bo’ Henhawk (1G), Kev-in Davey (1G), Mar-cus Elvin(1A), Jacob Crans (1A), Timmy John-son (1A) and goalie Chase Martin (1A).

Niagara falls 3 straight - second round opens Thursday

Jacob Bomberry has proven yet again the depth of the lacrosse talent pool at Six Nations. Bomberry recorded his 218th assist Friday night only 9 seconds into the game on a goal by Harris Lemon. That is a new Rebels regular season, playoff, Founders Cup combined as-sists record, and there’s lots of lacrosse left for the defending Cup winners. Last year Chris Attwood, who is playing Jr. A this year in Whitby, won that title as a Rebel. (Photo by Jim Windle)

The Rebels are the odds on favourites to repeat as Founders Cup Champions this year. The power and talent they possess at both ends of the floor is giving all comers fits, and they are only getting stronger every game. Their next opponents will be Orangeville in round two of the playoffs which begins either Wednesday or Thursday night at the ILA. (Photo by Jim Windle)

By Stephanie DearingOKLAHOMA CITY, OK

19 year old Carey-Leigh Thomas was, as might be ex-pected, a bit nervous about trying out for Softball Can-ada’s Senior Women’s Na-tional Team this past June. After all, even though Carey has had experience on the Ju-nior National Team, she was competing against women from across Canada who are some of the best ball players in the country.

When Tekawennake in-terviewed Carey-Leigh in April, she said, “It’s the senior women’s team, it’s the high-est you can go and everyone is so much older and so ex-perienced, and so I feel kind of intimidated by that, but I want to show them that I can play with them and that I can play at that level.” But Car-ey’s nervousness was unwar-ranted, as the talented player showed her stuff and made the team.“Right now she’s in our

athlete pool and she’s certain-ly up for selection if she plays well over the next couple of weeks,” said Softball Cana-da spokesperson, Gilles LeB-

lanc. Thomas was put into a uniform on June 23rd for the Title IX game, LeBlanc said. It was Carey’s first time play-ing for the senior team in a game.“She came off the bench

and pinch hit for us and got a single. That’s a really good start for her.” Thomas also stole a base in that game, said LeBlanc.“I think she surprised them.

Her first game, her first hit! She opened up some eyes that night,” said Carey’s moth-er, Shelley Thomas. “That team basically consists of all Olympic players or all pro players.”LeBlanc said Carey “did

represent us as well in Decem-ber at our World Champion-ships in the Junior Women’s category and she did really well in that category as well. We were really happy with her last year.”Softball Canada consid-

ers the athlete pool to “be a ‘snapshot’ of Canadian talent in women’s softball, and be-ing in the pool means Thom-as has a shot at making the team this year. Leblanc said the world championship team hasn’t been chosen yet. “After

the Canadian Open, we’re go-ing to cut down a few players for our world championship team. We won’t know until about July 10th, I think, when we name the team.”LeBlanc said Thomas

would be put in a few games over this week as the team continues to play in Oklaho-ma. “We’re looking forward to seeing what she can do,” he said.The games are being broad-

cast on TSN, which is how Carey’s family is keeping up with her, said Shelley Thom-as. “That’s how big it is! She’s on the sports channel!” She said Carey was tapped to play with the team for the tourna-ment in British Columbia, and expects her daughter will travel with the team to Yel-lowknife, even if she doesn’t play. “She’s probably going to be learning from those ladies and next year, I’m sure she’ll have her spot.”Softball Canada “only took

the best” for the Senior Wom-en’s Team, said Shelley. “Her teammates are all so nice. I thought she’d be homesick, but no, she’s having a ball. She’s learned so much al-ready.”

Carey-Leigh is sharing a room with her idol, Me-gan Timpf. Timpf, who is from Port Dover, was on the women’s team, representing Canada at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.Softball has since been cut

from the Olympics. “If there were Olympics,” said Shel-ley, “she’d be gone. She’d be gone with them, our little girl from Six Nations.”After being put out onto the

ball diamond, Shelley said Carey-Leigh sent a message. “She said any little chance that they give her an inch, she’s going to show them she can do a mile. Any chance they give her, she’s going to show them she can be up there with the best of them.”“She’s always said this is

where she’ll end up, this is what her goal is. She’s only 19,” said Shelley.Heading into selection

camp, Carey-Leigh “didn’t want to disappoint anybody, especially her community here at Six Nations,” Shelley explained. “I’m sure they’re going to keep her in mind for a long, long time. It took them long enough to get her there!”

Hill United, a Six Nations baseball team took it upon them-selves to sponsor Carey-Leigh Thomas to help her get to the Team Canada selection camp in June. Carey-Leigh is holding a mock cheque. Carey’s mother, Shelley, said Carey normally works through the summer, but this year she hasn’t had the chance. Hill United gave Carey $1,500, and Shelley said the family is very grateful for the assis-tance. (Submitted photo)

SIX NATIONS TERRITORY

Alma Greene, Mohawk historian, Elder, author and seer wrote a letter in the 1960’s or 70’s calling for the abolition of the Indian Act.

This letter was a submis-sion she made to the Indian Affairs office regarding the historically based proof of Six Nations national sover-eignty.

There is no point in his-tory or any legal act of legislation that ended this sovereignty and Six Na-tions has never given it up. Therefor, according to In-ternational Treaty law, Six Nations remains a sovereign Nation.Last week we published

the first part of her letter. The following is the con-clusion:

In 1739, the lords of trade addressed the lords of the Privy Council;

“We shall observe to your lordships that these Six Na-tions are the most powerful and war-like of the ancient of that part of America. That they have always been faith-ful allies to the British set-tlement in those parts. We may add that these Six Na-tions are looked upon to be a great support of the Brit-ish Empire in those parts.” (N.Y. Doc 6 P 256)In 1748 Sir William John-

son wrote Governor Clin-ton;

“Your Excellency is pleni-potentiary (meaning having all diplomatic power) with the Indians who, though called subjects, are a for-eign people, and are to be treated with as immediately from the King, of His Maj-esty’s Governor.” (N.Y. Doc 6 P540) Proceedings of Council,

April 19, 1757.Brethren — let all nations

of Indians know that the great King of England, my master, is their friend, that He desires all nations of In-dians may unite together, be as one body and one blood. He offers them His alliance and protection, which all princes and peoples over the great lake are proud and glad of.” (N.Y. Doc 7 P 246)

Sir William Johnson writes the Earl of Shelborne, Sept. 22, 1767.

“They, the Six Nations called themselves a free people who had an indepen-dent land, which were their

ancient possessions, that the French by ceding Canada, according to the words of the treaty granted what was not in their power to give; their outposts and distant possessions being only held by them, not by conquest but by favour; that if they admit-ted our rights to the posts we conquered, the country was still theirs and in fact it is most certain the French nev-er spoke to them in any other style, as sensible of the con-sequences it might with re-gard to their interest.” (N.Y. Doc 7 P 958)In 1768 a line of demar-

cation was established be-tween the lands of the Six Nations and the lands of the King and their full indepen-dence acknowledged by the Treaty of Fort Stanwix, at this time the Six Nations was regarded as a distinct politi-cal community, capable of making treaties or compacts to which the law of England did not extend.

Governor Simcoe writing Dundas, Secretary of the

State, on July 3, 1794;“It rests for me to observe

Sir, that I have always con-sidered an Article of the Treaty of Utrecht to be the only authentic document that defines the state of the Indians, as far as it respects the European nations, whose whose line of demarcation as limited by themselves for their own mutual guid-ance, gives to the Indians and their respective traders, the utmost freedom therein and considers the nations as entirely independent.”(Can. Arch. Co. Off. Rec.

Series Q Vol. 280 — 1 P.M. 201 — 207)In a further report (Can,

Arc. Q 183 P 87) is stated;“The manners of the In-

dians required that the tract assigned them should be in common, inalienable and kept out of the view of our municipal laws, at least so long as they affected to consider themselves inde-pendent allies, for this pur-pose, a council, a treaty, a belt, was adequate. It was a

compact of one nation with another, to be governed by general rules and not by the provisions of the common law of England. To answer the fair intent all as done that ought to have been done to have been adequate to the wish of the Indians and the extent of the Government, new circumstances must have arisen to justify and call by the Indians on the government for further as-surances or change ... The Government cannot wish to constrain them or to intro-duce our laws among them so long as they continue a people apart.”It is a fact that should not

be forgotten by anyone con-sidering the historical posi-tion of the Six Nations that neither the Province of New York in its colonial days, nor the Imperial Parliament of Great Britain, ever passed either an Act of Assembly or Parliament by which it was sought to regulate, govern or interfere with the affairs of the Six Nations, and that the

first Act of Parliament which ever did so, was that passed by Canada in 1859, reserved by the then Governor-Gener-al for Her Majesty’s special consideration, and which received the Royal assent only on the assurance of the Governor-General in his dis-patch transmitting a draft of same to England made “no changes whatever to the rights of the Indian tribes.” The Royal instructions of Indian Affairs of July 10, 1764, imposed no restraints on the Indians, but only on the whites and provided the methods by which business with the Indian tribes was to be regulated.

Strictly speaking, the orig-inal status, rights, and privi-leges of the Six Nations.

Hon. Frank Oliver, speaking in the House of Commons, May 11, 1914 (Hansard) said;“These are the bands of

the Six Nations Indians lo-cated on the Grand River in Ontario, who, I maintain are in a different legal position from any other Indian bands who are native to this coun-try. These Indian bands on the Grand River had their original home in the Unit-ed States. At the close of the war of the revolution they emigrated to Canada and were given lands under special treaty, not as sub-jects of Great Britain but as allies for Great Britain and I maintain that the holding of these Six Nations Indians on

the Grand River is of such a kind that this parliament has no right to interfere with it. I admit that Parliament has the power to interfere with the rights of Indians, under treaty made with this gov-ernment, but I say that this Parliament has no right to interfere with a treaty made between the Imperial Gov-ernment and the Six Nations Indians.”

When rebellion broke out in America, the King called on his allies, the Six Nations, for assistance, and promised, if given, he would “protect them and preserve them in all their rights.” Lord Dart-mouth on July 5, 1775, wrote Colonel Guy Johnson, who had succeeded as Superin-tendent of the Six Nations after the death of the great Sir William Johnson:“The present state of af-

fairs in His Majesty’s Colo-nies in which an unnatural rebellion has broken out, that threatens to overturn the constitution ... as that His Majesty may rely on their assistance in any case in which it may be necessary

to require it.” (N.Y. Doc 8 P 592)By Tradition, as of the

Kings of centuries past, the Six Nations Confederacy never casts a vote and never lends its support to any po-litical candidate and with the original Haldimand Deed in their possession, the Six Nations feel that voting for the sale of any part of their Grand River Country would violate their treaty rights.After the passing of the

North America Act, a Wam-pum Belt was presented to Six Nations by Col. Clause on behalf of the Canadi-an Government. This was a token of regard for the Mohawks and others of the Six Nations who had ever proven themselves “faith-ful allies of the British” and conferred upon them the full and perpetual right to live as a Nation within a Na-tion” conforming always to their ancient rules and cus-toms which the Government would never force them to change.”

ARIES - MAR 21/ApR 20Aries, the week may begin a little off-

kilter, but you’ll find that by Wednes-day or Thursday, things turn around significantly. A couple of opportunities for socialization arise.

TAURUS - ApR 21/MAy 21Take inventory of your life this week,

Taurus, and make the necessary tweaks to align you with your prima-ry goals. Take a cue from someone or-ganized.

GEMINI - MAy 22/JUN 21Gemini, you’re inspired to do something

creative. Narrow down the possibili-ties. Maybe you want to paint indoors or take on a new craft hobby. Either way you’ll find success.

CANCER - JUN 22/JUl 22Even the most organized people can get

tripped up once in a while, Cancer. This week you may be unable to keep track of things. Keep your cool, and you will get it under control.

lEO - JUl 23/AUG 23Take control of a situation that arises,

Leo, because right now it seems no one else is capable of handling the situa-tion. You may prove to be an excellent leader.

VIRGO - AUG 24/SEpT 22Influential people will be moving in

your social circles, Virgo. Failure to introduce yourself and network could lead to setbacks in your employment goals.

lIBRA - SEpT 23/OCT 23Once the excitement of an event wears

off, Libra, you may be left floundering for a little while. Don’t wallow in bore-dom. Get started on a new project.

SCORpIO - OCT 24/NOV 22Sometimes much more can be said by re-

maining quiet that actually speaking, Scorpio. Keep this in mind when you are socializing with new people.

SAGITTARIUS - NOV 23/DEC 21It can sometimes feel lonely at the top,

Sagittarius. Now that you’ve acquired many of the things you wanted, the re-sulting feelings may not be what you thought.

CApRICORN - DEC 22/JAN 20Now may be the time to get serious

about your efforts to find a new job, Capricorn. Start doing the legwork and get your name out to new people as much as you can.

AQUARIUS - JAN 21/FEB 18Although you’re a do-it-yourself person

by nature, Aquarius, sometimes let-ting someone get the job done frees you up for more important projects. You also get a needed break.

pISCES - FEB 19/MAR 20Pisces, you can’t seem to keep your mind

on the thing at hand. Your wandering thoughts may put you in tune with a better idea.
