The KMHC Office

Let me describe what happens when a tenant sends a complaint to the office.  Generally the H.O.W. (Housing Outreach Worker) reads it then passes it on to the HSC (Housing Service Coordinator) to investigate and work on a solution. 
Tenant, Dean is now a former friend. He lives in the same building as I but on a different floor, lately whenever he sees me at the entrance or in the hallway he’ll give snide remarks or insults in hope of getting a reaction.  Well Dean the only reaction you’re going to get is a knock on your door from the cops if this keeps up.
At first I thought I would try a subtle approach by writing a letter to the KMHC office and suggest they have a talk with Dean about his lunatic behavior and for it to stop. The HSC Ingrid Nosel is totally clueless and a lousy investigator.  She instructed a staff member to write and suggest I was at fault and according to the security camera there is no evidence the incident happened. Relying on a security camera with no audio is ambiguous.  After receiving the follow-up letter in the mail from HOW Lynda Jones I called the office and we had a short meeting. I was annoyed and I wanted an explanation.  After our meeting I think the H.O.W. and I are on the same page.  Sometimes verbal communication is better then writing a God Dammed letter. 

It’s no a secret the HSC Ingrid Nosel doesn’t like me and that’s fine because the feeling is mutual.  I think HSC Ingrid Nosel should retire and move on, step aside with dignity and allow UNH’s to hire a more vibrate individual who’s open minded to modern suggestions and to really listen to the staff and tenants. Perhaps she's related to Toronto Mayor Rob Ford. :P   I’d describe the HSC as a liar, clueless, outdated thinking and has a vindictive personality.  This is what's giving Urban Native Homes Inc. a bad reputation Ingrid Nosel.

That being said I have a funny story to tell – Last week around 7 pm I was on my way out when Ingrid & I nearly collided at the doorway. I guess she forgot something in the office to be here at 7 pm.  So being the gentleman that I am I allowed her to pass then I looked down at the floor and noticed something….Ingrid wears open sandals and has Fred Flintstone feet, dry scaly and cracked  Ewww!  LOL

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
