I Can't Believe It, This Is So Tacky.

For April 5, 2012 a Easter potluck luncheon invite was posted on the bulletin board for the tenants of K-M Housing Complex.  I don’t mind contributing food to an informal gathering but today we received a little note asking to bring our own plates, utensils and a cup in effort to cut down on waste.  Sometimes I wonder what in the hell the K-M staff are thinking I'll bet this was the Super's idea,  it’s not like we have a feast every month in this joint so why make a big fuss over a few paper plates, plastic utensils and God forbid we should touch their plastic cups.  Talk about being cheap! 
According to the King School Of Etiquette a host should never ask guests to bring their own plates, cups and utensils even to a potluck function, just be grateful the guests bring food.  Next time we should have a Medieval Times luncheon where we eat off the table with our bare hands maybe then K-M will stop being so anal. :P
This is such a turn-off, at the moment I’m thinking “K-M can shove the turkey up where the sun don't shine, I’m not attending." 
Update - April 5, 2012 if you haven't noticed yet...there's new important information posted in the comment section that's quite interesting ...check it out.

Hello Tony I want to inform you the the HSC Ingrid Nosal is doing her best to kick you out by trumping up fales charges. She has done this before with Danile Josephand others. She has give YOU a diagnosis of a mental illness and will not rest until you are either gone or committed. She has told her husband children family and strangers all about you. You have been slandered betweem here and Lethbridge by her.She has broken the code of ethics of a social worker and feels she is immune from any actions by the tennants. She is also attacking the staff and was responsible for Joseph and Stephanie being fired and is trying to get Lorraine fired like she had Denise fired. Your human rights have been violated and I will testify on your behalf to stop this abuse of her clients human beings. She has also been told she has symptoms of a personality disorder by 2 highly trained professionals but refuses to seek help. What is she doing working with vulnerable people. I will contactyou with my information.

Thank you Anonymous for your comment. I've have Ingrid Nosel's sleazy tactics figured out along time ago and I'm not surprised on what you're saying. My unit is next door from former tenant Danny Joesph so I heard and seen how the poor man was treated. I saw former staff member Stephanie Hagar fleeing the building in tears and I knew something was up when Denise M. was suddenly gone before her contract was up. The last time I was disgusted with Ingrid is when she called the cops and filed a N7 form on a tenant who has a physical disability even after the man apologized for his verbal outbursts she still wouldn’t let up. I have empathy for Lorraine B. & Charles J. they have very little influence on how things are run around here, they just do what they are told.

This place has so much potential all it needs is the right leadership.

Ingrid reminds me of a Catholic nun who ran the Native residential schools years ago because of their religious beliefs they truly believe they are doing the right thing. The sad thing is look at the result..stories of natives being abused physically and mentally are in the history books.

Tony you need to get going and do something. She is planning on running another housing place for natives out west. You can stop her from abusing others.

Unfortunately the only thing I can do is bring awareness which is what this blog site is all about. Social Media is a powerful tool, right now the pageviews for this site are near 6,000 and growing thanks to the links to Twitter and the Google search engine and I'm thinking of branching out to Facebook. Many people in Hamilton are keeping an eye and reading my blogs and taking it seriously including local politicians, The Spec, former tenants and friends I know in the business world.
When I do move out of this building this site will continue on I have plans to merge it with another Blog related to Native issues.
Once again I thank Anonymous for the warning and judging by your writings I do believe you. If you have any more information to share please go to my blogger profile and send me an e-mail message. :)

It's been two years since I received these warnings from Anonymous. Last year I found out who this person is, It's John Nosel the HSC's husband. I suspect Ingrid and John had a falling out and this was his way of getting back at his wife. I couldn't care less about their marital status what I'm concerned about is the information he obtained. This is a breach of confidentially and merits Ingrid Nosel's dismissal as HSC for UNH's

Poor Working Environment

My unit is located near the KMHC office, along with a friendly wave or hello I see the junior staff going about their business in a cheerful manner with the exception of one employee.   You would think KMHC has a pleasant working environment but that is not the case.   March 2016 is when Urban Native Homes head office was forced to move from their former spacious location to the cramp basement level of KMHC.   There were approx. 8-10 staff members at the time.   Then the Urban Native Homes financial scandal broke out and soon after the current UNH acting director’s illicit past became public knowledge, everyone was worried will they have a job.  Fearful meetings going on in the community room, the rumor mill was in full rotation while I just stood back and observed the panic.   Check your search engine it states this building location is Urban Native Homes head office yet that is not correct.  There is no real head office, the organization has s...

The Passing of Dean King

There's not many original KMHC tenants left that I know, last week I got word tenant Dean King passed away, we were not related and I remember when he moved in the building we got along well, we hung out often and he shared stories about his life and family. Eventually I notice he wasn't the sharpest pencil in the drawer and I started drifting away thus ended our friendship. Dean didn't have the usual addictions most male aboriginals endure he didn't drink or do drugs the problem was his mental state which I believe began after an auto accident years before.  After I moved out of KMHC I'd often see him standing in line at the food bank in Gore Park in downtown Hamilton or hanging out with street friend Galina in Jackson Square food court. He didn't have many friends and other KMHC tenants just tolerated and accepted his strange behavior. He'd walk the streets looking disheveled and lost.  When I received the news Dean died I didn't feel sad I felt surpri...

Sandy Holland

On February 27th 2025 I heard the passing of tenant Elder Sandy Holland. I knew she was in bad health and said to her friend she's ready to go.  I met her years ago when she moved to KMHC she seem a bit daffy yet in a nice way, never spoke mean about others but had strong opinions about UNH staff. We would meet at UNH dinner functions and meetings and always offered me hug. She never got personal sharing her life stories with me which I can respect. RIP
