Con't From Previous Post

I forgot to mention in my previous post my legal counsel said my initiative to approach the staff on May 3 in regards to the N5 was an excellent idea. Unfortunately today Charles J. confirmed my suspicion his suggestion did not go well. His idea was for “the acting HSC” and I met along with the outreach staff and hopefully clear the air on some issues. So there you have it folks, the acting HSC she’s a stubborn olde broad, afraid to work on a solution, a person who lacks leadership and uses intimation on the senior tenants. Urban Native Homes Inc. For fuck Sakes! Find a new HSC with a backbone it’s time to put this one out to pasture, you got rid of everybody else why not her!

To show the readers what type of person I am on Sunday afternoon I was talking to a neighbour outside and I was surprised to hear the tenant is out of food. I had one last frozen steak in my freezer and I gave it to the tenant. Aww what the hell, I have to go on a diet anyway. :)

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
