Management Sucks!

Words of Wisdom

The image/words you see above is for the former UNH’s staff that were thrown under the bus and for the ones still working under management rule. In these tough economic times there are not many full time jobs available I understand staff have to make a living but don’t allow the employer to interfere or restrict social communication with others. (tenants).  It's a human rights violation.   Here’s a scoop I want share: I never wrote about this as requested from a former UNH’s head office employee.  About 3 years ago the lovely UNH’s Director tried to muzzle the former employee by threatening legal action if any information was leaked out.  The thing is the person never gave any inside information in regard to UNH’s business practice and I never asked.  I only receive confirmation on the Director’s bitchy character and I was praised for being clever and insightful on what goes on at KMHC.
At the last KMHC Christmas dinner I watched the native female staff having a wonderful conversation, I smiled because the native humor and persona was apparent, these women were keeping it real and having fun.  The male employees are the same, a great group of unpretentious men and yet UNH’s wants to put duct tape over their mouths. Ie:  Shut up!  Do not converse with the tenants or we’ll fire you.  
This policy is outdated and I imagine similar to the rules forced upon the natives 60 years ago in the residential schools.  HSC Ingrid can relate which is why she's so unstable, say Boo to her, she'll raise one leg, fart, then run to the cops to complain.  :P

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...
