I was sorry to read in the Standoff continues at Ipperwash By Patrick Raft's SSP News Staff The situation at Ipperwash remained tense but stable Monday night, as a standoff between police and a native group occupying Ipperwash Provincial Park continued. Tate occupation of the park; which natives are claiming is a sacred burial ground, began September 4, after the park had closed for the season. The situ- ation turned confrontational September 6, when Anthony (Dudley) George, 38, one of the occupiers was killed by gunfire in a confrontation with OPP on Army Camp Road, Wednesday night. Police report they fired on a bus, which exited from the camp pushing a dumpster which was part of a barricade, after occu- pants of the bus fired at them. Natives contend they are unarmed and that police shots were the only shots fired. The Ministry of the Attorney General is conducting an investigation into the shooting. Native leaders vowed to con- duct their own probe at a press conference held at the Camp Ipperwash, Thursday evening. Two other native people were injured in the incident which occurred between 10 and 11 p.m. Both were taken into police custody after release from hospital. Perth, Huron health unit amalgamation being discussed The second of a series of scheduled discussions on potential health unit amalgamation between the Huron and Perth Boards of Health occurred Sept. 8. A draft framework for ongoing discussions was developed encompassing the topics of financial and administrative issues and political structures. The next meeting is scheduled for Oct, 27. ' up from the camp entrance on Army Camp Road to a point about 500 yards south on Highway 21 for about half an hour as natives, mostly from the nearby Kettle and Stony Point Reserve, arrived to pay their respects. Following the shooting, OPP had blocked off all acct -ss roads into the area around the camp, park and nearby reserve, as aboriginal people set up their own barricades, in one case using a flaming vehicle crudely painted to resemble an OPP cruiser inside the police perimeter. The situation eased consider- ably by noon on Friday, after Ovide Mercredi, Chief of the National Assembly of First Nations, who arrived in the area Thursday evening, joined local native leaders in negotiat- ing with police. Under an agreement negotiated between OPP officials and native lead- ers, the'OPP took down their barricades and replaced them with "observation points," while natives used heavy machinery to clear debris used to create their barricades off Highway 21. • "We're still maintaining observation points and moni- toring traffic at about a four kilometre perimeter around the camp," said Grand Bend OPP Constable J. J. Arseneau, Monday afternoon. Gas in local communities The Londesborough, Brus- sels, Blyth and Belgrave areas will all soon have gas. Line construction along the highways is ahead of schedule because of the good, dry weather, says the project co- ordinator for Union Gas. The company estimates 100 customers had signed for con- nection in the Clinton to Belgrave and Brussels triangle, and another 100 for the Win- gham to Teeswater area. However, native police offi- cers from Kettle Point and other reserves across the province.have been called in to police the arca immediately around the camp. Meanwhile, natives have for- tified the main camp entrances with sandbags and blocked other entrances with vehicles. Considerable damage was done inside the park as natives Funeral services for George " were held without incident at Camp Ipperwash Monday morning, despite a huge crowd of native mourners from the immediate area and across the province. Some 'natives even travelled from south of the border to attend George's bur- ial in a plot on the former mili- tary base. Traffic was backed used picnic tables and other fixtures around the park to bar- ricade entrances. Also last week, the park administration building was burned to the ground. No official word has been issued by the federal govern- ment, which pledged to return Camp Ipperwash to native con- trol in its first budget in February, 1993, but it has been widely reported that Indian Affairs Minister Bon Irwin will arrive to join negotiations Wednesday.
