Twisted Truth.

This afternoon a copy of the last tenant meeting minutes report from February 4, 2014 was slipped under my door and “twisted truth” was typed in the report.  This is how the fearful and unstable HSC labeled my blogs.  I quickly scanned through the report then immediately returned it to the KMHC receptionist.  I said to Sharon “I’m returning this, I’m not interested in reading fiction.” and I left.  :P
On Friday we received a “24 hour entry notice” and guess what it’s about this time!  The maintenance crew are to come in our units and clean the window blinds.  I immediately thought this is not a maintenance issue, this is housekeeping.  Years ago when the former Superintendent was doing her annual inspection I asked about the window blinds.  She replied, it’s the tenants’ responsibility to keep the windows and blinds clean and dust free and gave me some cleaning tips.  Since I’m a fanatic about cleanliness I had no problem with doing it myself.  This morning I called probie H.O.W. Christine D. and mentioned it wasn’t necessary for the crew to enter my unit since my place is clean as a whistle.  I gave her my reasons and surprisingly there was no drama, no anger of words, in the end she complied.   Mind you I do think it’s a good idea for the elderly tenants in the building who have a physical or mental disability, and that’s not me I've always been self sufficient.  The day I can’t wipe my own arse then I’ll call KMHC or the HSC for assistance. *joke*  :D
Here's the scene of the day.  Around 12:30 pm I was leaving my unit unknowingly at the same time the HSC Ingrid was locking the office door and was about to leave the building.  Who would have thought a 6 ft, 200 lbs. woman could move so fast to her car.  Remember Ingrid the only thing you have to fear is fear itself.  Something's up folks, just the other week after their meeting I saw the UNH's director give the HSC a hug, I think the HSC is falling apart.

Tomorrow is going to be a good day.  :)

There was another tenant meeting scheduled for today @ 10 30 am. Since I already made plans last week and a friend was to drop by @ noon I decided to pass on the tenant meeting. Last thing I want was to be bored shitless before I head out for a fun afternoon @ Silvercity Ancaster. :)

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...

Koo Gaa Da Win Manitou

I hope one day we can truly say there is a haven where older natives who experienced homelessness can find a place to call home and have the resources available for the best quality of life in their golden years. Koo Ga Da Win Manitou Housing Complex has a long journey in order to reach that goal. Perhaps more funding is needed or better trained/experienced outreach workers who can relate to tenants concerns and health issues. Programs that would interest all tenants as a whole would be nice. Most important we tenants must try to get along with their neighbours. (as the good book says "Love thy neighbour") I've been here less then a year and I've observed alot, we have a diversity of tenants living in the building from different reservations and walks of life. Some have problems with alcohol, prescription drug addictions, physical disabilities and slight mental disabilities. The one thing we all have in common is our health concerns, from chronic back pain to deadly...

The End Is Here

Urban Native Homes Inc. will no longer exist.   Today and tomorrow Ciy of Hamilton/Ontario Aboriginal Housing Human Resources Dept. are interviewing UNH staff and other applicants in the community room.   Who will be rehired and who will be fired!   I just hope they choose wisely. Tonight I heard Christine Lenze, her mother Ingrid Nosel and the rest of their family and friends has left UNH. This evening before I left for the gym I ran into receptionist Melissa Wissner in the hallway.   She was waiting for her job interview and had a message for me from former UNH caseworker Crystal Mackenzie.  Crystal wishes me good luck and it was a pleasure working with me.  I was surprised by the message and I wish her the best too. :) My blog site has accomplished what I started out to do some years ago by publicly outing the mismanagement of Urban Native Homes Inc.  It's been a long arduous journey. I would like to thank anonymous and the others for thei...
