Two For One

There was a slight altercation in the courtyard this afternoon so I decided to test an outreach worker on their ability to trouble shoot and problem solve.  I asked to speak to one privately, we were in the office in the middle of a conversation then suddenly Cheryl the office worker walks in and sits down.  I’m strict on privacy so I politely asked if she would excuse us and she said NO. I gave her stern look and said “What!”  Then Lorraine the outreach worker explained there has to be another employee in the room during discussions.  I thought why Cheryl....the woman has a cold demeanor. Now when I request a private conversation with an outreach worker or anybody else for that matter I don’t expect a third-party.  Lorraine should have said something before we even started talking in which case I would have said forget it.  Urban Native Homes Inc. read this and read it well. Your policies Suck! :P   Will I use the KM outreach services again?…...

Update

Just to be on the safe side and to cover my ass I recently decided to get professional advice from the law firm of  Wyatt, Purcell, Stillman, Shaughnessy & Embree LLP   in regards to my Native Housing blogs.  After the lawyer read Elizabeth Repchuck's letter and my posted response. He said I'm doing nothing illegal as long as I continue to post the truth and be honest in my opinions.  The truth is a valuable tool in the court of law.  :)   Truth and the Internet By Vinton G. Cerf Truth is a powerful solvent. Stone walls melt before its relentless might. The Internet is one of the most powerful agents of freedom. It exposes truth to those who wish to see it. It is no wonder that some governments and organizations fear the Internet and its ability to make the truth known.

Holy Smoke! Tony To The Rescue

Today in the wee hours of this morning as I was sleeping I heard my neighbor’s smoke alarm go off, I thought this is odd so I got dressed and peeked out into the hallway then I  smelled smoke. I waited for a second then I decided to knock on the tenant’s door to see if she’s alright.  She opened the door and she had a look of confusion and fear. My experience in security and emergency procedures kicked in and I asked if I could enter she said yes. I looked around and saw a pot on the stove, smoke was billowing from the pot and the burner was on full blast. I rushed over to the stove, turned off the burner and switched the exhaust fan to high I then got a towel and put the pot in the sink.  The unit was full of smoke and it was hard to breathe and I yelled out I’m going to open the all the windows to get the smoke out and to hopefully shut the smoke alarm off.  Once all the windows were open I started fanning the room with a magazine, soon after the alarm automaticall...

A Futile Attempt At Intimidation

Well my friends today I received a harsh letter from a Elizabeth Repchuck of Gain HR on behalf of Urban Native Homes Inc. requesting I stop posting comments on this blog site in regards to Koo Gaa Da Win Manitou Housing Complex.  Just so everybody knows the company Gain HR is not a law firm nor is Elizabeth Repchuck a lawyer. This site “Native Housing” was originally created as a form to semi privately vent my frustrations and to express my compliments and complaints about the place I reside.  Before this site was created I’ve sent many complaint and concern e-mails to the Director of Urban Native Homes Inc. and never got a response back. Up yours Elizabeth Repchuck! I’m exercising my right under the Constitutional law of Canada “The Freedom of Expression Act” Section 2(b) of the Charter states that "Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: ... freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression. If your client can’t handle hard criticism and sarcastic humor then...
