FYI - How to Obtain a Certificate of Exemption (Gas Card)

   In order to improve and speed up the processing of issuing of the Ontario Certificates of Exemption (Gas Cards), the Ontario Ministry of Finance has advised us that the Application for Certificate of Exemption PE 360, is no longer in use. The procedure for obtaining a Certificate of Exemption (Gas Card) is outlined as follows: 
   A written request from each applicant must be mailed or faxed directly to the Ministry of Finance, with a legible photocopy of the front and back of his/her valid Indian Photo Status Card from Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, along with the applicant’s telephone number and mailing address, and a reason for requesting a card. 
   Applicants who have not received their Gas Card within three (3) weeks should contact the Ministry. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office at (905) 433-6432.

Six Nations "Iroquois" Confederacy 
Grand River Country 
Ohsweken, Ontario 

Congratulations!! 

For those who are graduating this is an exciting time, the reaching of one goal and moving on to new ones. 
For those who are continuing we extend our support and best wishes. 
Our prophecies tell us that only one in ten of you will come home after getting an education. 
This stands as a warning not a certainty. Always remember who you are and where you came from. 
It is said that the proper Haudenosaunee path is one of pride without arrogance. However, we have so much to be proud of - your determination, your pride and your energy. 
The boundaries of the Grand River Territory have never limited our possibilities. Our people have always walked with confidence in every part of the world. Follow that path. Walk that walk. Make new tracks.
