A deal brokered between Six Nations with Samsung and the province of Ontario is getting mixed reviews.  "Closed door negotiations between Samsung, Ontario and Six Nations of the Grand have resulted in a precedent-setting deal worth as much as $55 million for Six Nations."  This announcement is made in the March 7 issue of TEKAWENNAKE.
Six Nations Economic Director Matt Jamieson has asked Six Nations for an endorsement of what he calls a "historic opportunity to capitalize on the use of our traditional territory."

The article by Stephanie Dearing of Ohsweken, refers to the turbine/solar project for Haldimand County; however, stops short of identifying the location.  Jamieson said, "If members back the deal, Six Nations could pursue similar lease arrangements for other projects in the Haldimand Tract."
"Six Nations members now have 30 days to make a decision," the author of the article asserts.  Six open houses will be held during the month to provide information.  On April 3 there will be a special community meeting to discuss the deal.  Elected Council will then make the final decision.
We welcome information from our municipality.  We believe that the "traditional territory" in question is South Cayuga.

Canadian author, Nellie McClung, worked tirelessly to improve the existence not only of women and children but of men as well.

"The Church must renounce the idea that, when a man goes forth to preach the Gospel, he has to consider himself a sort of glorified immigration agent, whose message is, 'This way, ladies and gentlemen, to a better, brighter, happier world;  earth is a poor place to stick around, heaven is your home."
His mission is to teach his people to make of this world a better place !~ to live their lives here in such a way that other men and women will find life sweeter for their having lived."
