The End Of Summer Approaches.

Hello readers, here’s what been happening since my last post.  Late one night I was taking out the trash and I noticed a lady in a wheelchair in front of our main entrance. She’s staying at Dunduran Place Nursing home across the street recovering from surgery and she was upset. The lady explained there’s no staff about and she’s lock out of the building.  I don’t like seeing a woman cry so I offered to help by wheeling her to the building and I’ll try to get night staff to open the door for her.  Mission accomplished the lady was grateful and safe in the building.  I was just glad it wasn’t the middle of winter when I found her. 
Recently tenant Dean was going about bragging to other tenants he called the cops on me.  Last week a H.R. police officer knocked on my door while I was in the shower, I told him to wait while I dry off then I invited him in. I asked what this is all about. Apparently Dean made a complaint to the police dept I’m harassing him on this blog site.  I explained to the officer, Dean has taken the comment out of context and it was posted over a year ago. My response totally surprised the officer.  Never the less I wasn’t impressed with the officer’s cocky attitude and I told him so, I assured him I follow Blogger Terms Of Use and I know the legalities. I explained to the officer this blog site is my journal/diary where I express my thoughts by writing them down and I choose to share with the public.  There are millions of bloggers around the world and one inexperienced regional police officer is not going to stop us from posting our thoughts, ideas and opinions on social media. 
This gave me the opportunity to mention to the officer for a year I’ve had to put up with Dean’s verbal/insulting outbursts and I never retaliated.  I told him the KMHC office staff won’t do anything to shut Dean up.  Dean’s mental state and complaint was a waste of police work, the officer was aware and hinted about it.  I'm sure he went back to Dean’s unit and gave him shit for being a pest.  Before the police officer left my unit I asked for his badge number and he complied.   

On Friday we received another love note from the KMHC office. It seems the building is still having boiler issues and this week for two full days we’ll be without hot water.  It’s a good thing I'm a member of the Hamilton-Burlington YMCA I can go there to have a hot shower, shit and shave whenever I want and not worry about boilers blowing up. :P

Last night Dean went to the C.S. to file a complaint. He later comes back to the building arms flapping and freaking out with anger because the front desk police officer told him to get lost and stop bothering them. Way to go H.P.S. :)

Wigwamin Terrace

After many years I received a call for Toronto Native Housing offering a vacancy so I decided to explore my options by attending a viewing of what's available. But first I did a phone interview with acting project manager Paul Feitelberg. He said my personal and financial information checks out fine then we talked about the negative reference I got from Ontario Aboriginal Housing Services. I was asked for my side of the story and I also invited Paul to read this blog site to find out more who I am.  A few days later I called Paul for an update, I was complimented on my blog posts and he could see the love and compassion I have for the Native people on this blog site.  Due to the Hamilton cyber attack it was difficult for Paul get a reference from my current housing provider so with my assistance I helped him get in contact with their office. I received an excellent tenant reference from my housing provider. When I asked about OAHS he said he's going to ignore their negative re...

The Ladies of KMHC

I & friend Teresa Last week I attended a program host by NWC Hamilton, it was there I met up with six female tenants of KMHC.   It was nice to see the ladies again I was greeted with hugs and smiles.   The program was Holistic teachings by Jane Burning she spoke about the Creator and positive thinking.   I enjoyed the presentation though it was a wee bit long.   During lunch break I had the chance to chat with the KMHC tenants to find out how’s life going at KMHC.   Things haven’t improved most tenants don’t like each other and there’s a lot of negative energy in the building.   I offered a sympathetic ear and didn’t judge as they shared their stories. The big problem with KMHC is tenant Aunt Opie and I’m glad she didn’t attend the NWC program.   You may recall I spoke of her in past blogs, aunt Opie’s negativity spreads throughout KMHC.   She brags about sending false complaint e-mails about tenants and staff to Justin the head direc...

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...
