FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
COUNTERFEIT $100.00 U.S. BILLS PASSED AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS
During the past weekend the Six Nations Police Service investigated 4 reports of a male passing or attempting to pass counterfeit $100.00 U.S. bills.
On Saturday, June 17th, 2017, the male purchased gas at Townline Variety using one of the counterfeit bills.
On Sunday, June 18th, 2017, the male passed a counterfeit $100.00 bill at Bear Paw Variety. He then attempted to pass another counterfeit bill at Townline Variety but fled when police were called. The same male attended the Tim Horton's in Ohsweken at 3 different times during the day. Each time he paid using a counterfeit $100.00 U.S. bill.
Police continue to investigate these incidents. Merchants are reminded to be cautious when presented with a U.S. bill of a $100.00 denomination.
POSITION OF THE SIX NATIONS POLICE SERVICE REGARDING THE LEGALIZATION OF MARIHUANA
The pending legalization of Marihuana has caused significant concerns in our Community. Currently a number of rumors are circulating in regards to other “store front” marihuana dispensaries popping up and that these will quickly replace or supplement tobacco shops.
The Six Nations Police Service has informed the Six Nations Council that we have every intention of taking enforcement action against any and all illegal marihuana operations. Just recently the Six Nations Police Service shut down a business on Highway 54 purporting to be a medical marihuana dispensary. While the decriminalization of marihuana may be imminent at present it is still a controlled substance under the federal Controlled Drug and Substances Act. We will proactively continue to take the necessary enforcement action against those involved in the production and distribution of this controlled substance.
At the Community Meeting held on April 6th, 2017, the message from our community was loud and clear. Illegal drugs and those dealing in illegal drugs are not wanted or welcomed here. Our police service made a strong commitment to working with our community to stem the tide of illicit drugs. There were no exceptions or exemptions from this mandate.
We understand and respect that there are therapeutic uses of marihuana. There are users who are duly authorized access to medical marihuana by a healthcare professional. The concern is that these store front marihuana dispensaries are not authorized to dispense marihuana. Any such dispensaries, on our Territory, will be the focus of police drug enforcement action. Currently, to legally distribute marihuana the two avenues available are under the Medical Purposes Regulations or pursuant to the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations. The Marihuana Medical Access Regulations outline the rules for eligibility, production and distribution of “medical marihuana”. Whether, even operations that are legally licensed to dispense or produce marihuana are welcome on the Territory is an issue that the community should have a say in.
As the police service we remain committed to working with our other community agencies towards making our community safe and healthy. That includes being diligent in confronting organized criminal groups and other individuals that see the legalization of marihuana as a financial enterprise at the expense of our community and our people.
In Peace & Friendship,
Glenn M. Lickers
Chief of Police
This is garbage, get the coke an pills off the rez, weed or MARIJUANNA isn't killing our kids, pills, coke an alcohol are killing kids an adults, but I guess no one cares cause all u hear bout is dispensaries. Cops go to one dispensary that just opened yet there's another that's been up an runnin for some time now, they must b friends or family with the police lmfao cops an some community members seem to b a joke, pick an choose who u want to pick on.
Too bad you and council dont take such a powerful standz on prescription drug use. Dont go saying its legal cuz its a prescription. Thats more of a problem and havent seen any such statements made about that. Then i so this one. Next if the governments say dandelions are illegal. Because of their medicinal properties. As people view it as a weed and mow it down. What next. Sorry i am for medical MARIJUANA . Take the lead from state of colorado. As i follow HOPE for LANDON. What saves this boy was Marijuana and its properties the plant offers.
I was too busy noticing the 'H' in Marijuana. Guess it doesn't take much brains to run a Facebook page 👌 Also, try putting a stop to the drugs that are actually harmful before you crusade against a plant that's as old as this earth.
Yes I think marijuana is the least of our problems. Our work hosted a community event at vets park this evening and it was very disturbing to see the local drug addicts hanging around high outta their minds and further more to find out that our park has to be checked daily as needles have been found their lately. So heart breaking. It made our staff and Families feel very uncomfortable to know this once upon time beautiful gathering place has become an unsafe place 💔
So you're gonna be bustin up crack houses, the pill dealers and coke dealers?! Because everybody knows, smoking a joint is definitely a gateway to smoking crack. Definitely good to keep the devils lettuce off the mean streets.
First, our traditions don't say the police force is authority. Rather, our individual community members are meant to police eachother, in the sense of keeping eachother on the good path. Don't complain if the police "aren't doing they're job", its our job as a community member to solve our issues not the sole responbility of the police. Question, how many of us know a pill popper or dealer yet do nothing to stop it? Second, the police are obligated to enforce written law, they can't pick and choose which laws to enforce and not enforce. In this case, Cannabis, or marihuana (as it is written in the law books) is a controlled substance and its possession and distribution is illegal unless one possesses a valid medical exemption. Therefore, the police must enforce the current law on the books... If you qualified for medical cannabis you could possess it according to access to cannabis for medical purposes (ACMPR). If you don't have a medical reason, you shouldn't be using it because it is still a drug with power for harm, despite the good it can do when overseen by a health care professional. Doctors are quite willing refer out orto prescribe cannabis if it works for someone who could benefit from it. The fact is though, most dispensaries and most users of cannabis don't NEED it, they just WANT it to get high. Hence the reason why THC containing products are the majority of that market. Cannabidiol is the real medicinal ingredient in cannabis and it doesn't get you high. Fun fact. Finally, the unregulated distribution and sale of cannabis and cannabis derivatives is a bad situation plain and simple. Why? because it is unregulated. I support Chief Lickers' statement because its right. Everyone's arguement against the Chief are unquestionably weak arguments. Please, get educated on topics before speaking out so boldly in a public forum. If it weren't for your ignorance, you'd be embarrassed for yourselves.
It's cannabis not marijuana, marijuana is the name the government gave it to sound more Mexican and dangerous. It was illegalized to benefit the pill n paper industry, and to incarcerate non whites
Harm reduction, I have never heard of anyone dying from marijuana use. Bust all the drug houses in Six Nations selling crack, prescription pills, oxy's, cocaine, meth, fentanyl.
With the pending legalization of marijuana I'm hoping the police , council and Confederate chiefs and clan mothers can come together implement a plan on how Six Nations is going to deal with pot before it becomes legislation.
If anyone should explain or educate the community it should be the Six Nations police.. Explain to your community that you claim to protect why you haven't taken action against a known drug place after 10 years of dealing with them? Explain why you do not apply for or execute a warrant on that location after there have been deaths on the property or reported overdoses attributed to drugs purchased there? There is a much bigger issue than people helping others with medical issues through the use of medical cannabis or its derivatives. We need a forum on why you havent fulfilled the mandate of removing places who continue to imprison and execute our people.
Crack cocaine meth these hard drugs along with heroin are the real bed drugs. Marijuana is a medicine if you want to look good like your doing your job you would concentrate on the drugs that kill not the ones you get the munchies from. But typical just like all the big bullies in the room but I'll make a example out of this 90 lb weakling you would think they knew this huh
Very informative Six Nations Police .... thanks for all You do and continue to do In your community .... and by the way the spelling is Correct when used in this context
First of all use spell check. If u want to sound professional ur spelling shud b correct. And I'm with everyone else and ok it's not legal yet but y aren't u making an effort for pple dealing hard drugs? This probably wudnt b a sore subject for pple if u were doing that. I know if 2 places and also know u have been told about them. And the complainants have been told u need probable cause well y'all busted a place last yr cuz a lil boy almost got hit. And good for u, thank u. But U've been told bout these other things places and nothing... and if I know about 2 places and i don't use I can imagine how many others there r. Was the other place selling medical marijuana busted, no. Bust some coke dealers n pill dealers and at least don't look like ur being so one sided.
Enforcement by tribal police services could be used as “Leverage” to get money for police services which have been chronically underfunded! Even with legalization the underground revenue is and will be in the billions this will cut into big tobacco industry and the pharmaceutical corporations who finance and control the canada’s government and are deploying millions into the industry! Also the canada’s intelligence agencies are involved you will know who is connected as it will be similar to the cigarette manufacturing only those that kick pay-offs and information on others upstairs to the intelligence community will be able to operate freely, read this and it shows you how ignorant authorities are when they still refer to cannabis as marijuana LOL! I have faith in 6 Nations to do something that will be a benchmark for all other communities to follow <3
Y worry about how it's spelt. Worry about the coke and pills that are taking our next generation away from growing up. How about that. I don't even live there (on six nations), and I know of 4 coke houses six nations police won't even bust them .must be family. What a joke.
These threads. Should be usable for council meetings to show the priority of the community. Being in an area that has drug houses, I feel like my kids have the right to go play outside and not worry about some one stealing from them to feed a habit because this is a reality of addiction, them smelling pot coming from a neighbours car is the least of my worries, what worries me more is there is a likelihood that they could find someone during an od or that they could possibly be hurt by a person not in their right frame of mind
It is crazy on how so many people on here want to say it is ok to do weed but not other things. They are all mind changers. We dont need to do any of them or have it in our community.
Lol seriously??? The only reason why this is an issue is because it's always the same ppl who show up to these meetings.... Band Council followers n their families and christians..... 3 christians show up to a meeting running their mouths n suddenly cannabis is outlawed on our territory.... Worry about the drugs that are actually doing harm like pills coke n crack... N come up with a better way of getting the input of the broader community not just the loudmouths who show up to all these meetings
The war on plants that have yet to cause a single dearh continues, while killers are set free; confusing logic but okay.
Better go see that house by the IL Thomas school too then Mr Glen kickers !!!!!!
What happen to having our own laws? Why we still running by what the white government says?
Funny it's so easy to raid for weed but to raid the hard drugs it's alot of investigating !!
How many more young people we have to bury from Overdosing on drugs or drunk driving? Horrible that the community for years have been doing the same thing with no results accept death! Time to change you're approaches!
You people let the government buy you and turn you against your own people wtf?
Should have native cops that arent from this reserve policing it....that way there can be no bias...
PALS TRIP IS SET TO GO. DRESS FOR THE WEATHER. Paintball fields will be muddy. As stated in the letter regular bus times at schools.
