Good evening and welcome to episode 328 of the Private Property Podcast. I'm your host, Uzaman Douma, Kumalo. It's a Friday edition of the Private Property Podcast, and if you join us for the first time, welcome to the family. You're tuned into the early daily property podcast in the country. We're certainly happy to have you with us. Grab a chair. You're going to see that this is quite a great family to be a part of, especially if you're watching us on our Facebook page. And all our regular viewers at home, welcome back. You know how we do every single weekday. You and I have an appointment at 7 p.m. We always tackle a hot property topic and have an expert guest who helps us make better property decisions. And talking of expert guests and making better property decisions, of course, you can look forward to other great shows across private properties, social media pages, and every weekday at 8 p.m. As it is a Friday, you can catch Chad on the home shopper's show, where he always gives us a great view and certainly a great tour of incredible properties that you can find on www.privateproperty.co.za. And you can also catch him every Monday at the same time. And on Tuesdays and Thursdays, a watering farmer takes us through all things agriculture. So if you've got green fingers and you just want to get a better sense of some of the do's and don'ts and how to best navigate your agriculture goals, then that is the show you want to tune into. And every Wednesdays, Estie Carson takes us through the first time home buyers show, which is always in conversation with people who've not only bought their first property, but have gone on to grow their portfolios from strength to strength. Those are the great shows that you look forward to every single evening at 8 p.m. So do make sure that you set your alarms. And talking about searching your alarms, one of the great things that we're currently doing is running a great competition on our Facebook page and on Twitter. You would have seen the daily competition on Twitter. It's very hot. I'm absolutely loving the different responses that people share when they try to guess who the person that is being posted. But on our Facebook page, we set out a big ambition of wanting to reach the 1 million follower mark, which you, of course, at home helped us reach it. And we also wanted to make sure that the competition post that is pinned to our Facebook page reaches 10,000 likes and 10,000 comments. And we haven't hit that target yet. So do get entering. And you stand a chance of walking away with 500 grand cash. Should you be chosen as the lucky winner? And the earlier way you can catch that money or get that money is if you watch us live and claim the money if we call your name. So you can look forward to that a little bit later on with the show for us to get a sense of who is walking away with that money. And the money bag right now sitting at 2,500 grand because unfortunately, we haven't had somebody claim their prize. So we're going to see if somebody's going to claim their prize or not. Of course, I want to see all the love on social media, especially those who are watching us on Facebook. I already see Umo, Umo, and they're saying hello, Zama, and Nelda, Everton. I see you as well as Bonzo, Bonzo and Jinye. I also see you. That's of course all the love that we're getting on our Facebook page. Well, this evening, we're going to be tackling a topic that I know many of us always need to have a good understanding of because it is one of those topics that sometimes actually still dribbles me. You would have thought after doing this so long, I would have a sense of how to do it, but I still get dribbled. And that's why it's so important for us to have a really good understanding of it as much as possible. And that is of course the conveyance and process when looking at our property portfolio and navigating our property portfolio. And help us get a good sense of this. I'm joined by Marika Elka, who is an associate ex-name and attorneys. Marika, good evening and thank you so much for joining us. Zama, thank you so much for having me. It's a pleasure and an honor. You know, Marika, I think this is one of those topics that you and I can probably spend over three hours having a chat about. The viewers at home know that I am one of the courses that I take is actually property law. So it's law for property development and management. So now I even have really cool questions I can ask when it comes to law. That's why unfortunately I am not live on air on Thursdays and we always have somebody who holds down the fort. But for those who are not studying it, because you certainly don't need to study this, right? You just have to have a really basic understanding and be able to best navigate your way around it. I think when we look at, you know, when you're buying a property, what are some of the things that we need to be taking into account when buying, especially from, you know, the signature of the offer to purchase? Because I think people are still not quite understanding just the gravitas of the, you know, offer to purchase and that it's a legally binding document. It's not a, oh no, man, it's, you know, things are not confirmed yet. Like you've now entered into a legal agreement. I think first you say, because through what to take into account when it comes to, you know, when you're buying a property, is it when it comes to an offer to purchase? Yes, I'm 100% right. We get a lot of questions these days. People telling us, listen, I've only signed an offer. It's not a sale agreement, but that's 100% right. The moment you put your signature on an offer to purchase, it becomes a valid and binding document. Whether it's subject to a suspensive condition, that would normally come in with your negotiations. So there are certain pitfalls regarding offers to purchase. For example, whenever you do put in an offer, you would make it according to a time limit. For example, your seller has until Thursday the 1st of September to accept your offer. If he does not accept your offer before or on Thursday, the 1st of September, then that offer would lapse and it would be null and void. At the moment that he accepts that offer, it becomes a final agreement. Not saying that it wasn't final beforehand, but there were certain suspensive conditions that it was made subject to. The moment he accepts it, that agreement begins and is put into place, subject to certain conditions being fulfilled and that we call your suspensive conditions. For example, your purchaser needs to obtain a bond or your purchaser needs to sell their property. And you know, Marika, we'll look a little bit at the suspensive conditions because I think it's still one of those things that people either firstly just don't understand or some of the clauses that could be beneficial for them, that you can easily sort of safeguard them as much as possible if they're still uncertain about certain aspects of, I'll say, their home loan application journey because so many things can happen. I think before we get to that though, then when we look at some of the do's and don'ts, if we just wrap up, especially for people who are buying, I know a lot of people right now at home are looking at, you know, taking advantage of low interest rates and exploring buy-in with many we're seeing that their first time home buyers, so they haven't walked this path just yet. I think what would be some of the key things that you would say as a buyer, especially a first-time home buyer, be aware of this before entering, before signing that offer to purchase? So the most important thing that we cannot stress enough is be aware that the loan that you're applying for does not include your transaction costs. So the cost would have to be paid separate from the purchase and Zoma, you won't believe it, we really get this a lot and that will delay a transfer to quite an extent if your purchaser does not have the money available to pay the transfer and the bond registration cost. It's two separate fees that need to be paid and normally they are more or less the same amount. The purchaser would just pay a higher amount to the transferring attorney who does the registration of the transfer as they would normally have to pay SARAs and municipal application fees and so forth. But the important thing to take notice of that your loan amount will not include your costs. Marge, that one is an issue that I always share whenever we talk about this and I know a lot of the regular viewers have heard me say this so many times that not knowing the costs associated, the legal costs associated with home ownership, I think is one of those things that so many of us when we're buying a home for the first time tend to not know. I always share how it also happens to me and I was one of those first-time home buyers who had done quite a bit of research for a few years, sort of on and off but obviously back then there just weren't as much there wasn't as much information. There certainly wasn't the private property podcast that's able to break down these things for us and when I bought I was buying and well fortunately unfortunately I guess it depends how well it looks at it was buying two properties at a go and as far as my research and my budget were concerned I only thought there was one attorney per property and these were not properties that were being bought cash because if they were then that would be the case these were being financed and so when the first two invoices came I knew to expect them and by the time the third one and then the fourth one hit my inbox I thought okay maybe somebody stole my identity there's something happening I'm not understanding and it was only until one of the attorneys called me because obviously I haven't made this payment I'm not even responding to their emails because I was confused what is happening that they actually explained no so this is what happens when you're buying a bonded property you're going to pay for your bond registration attorneys and you're also going to pay for the transferring attorneys so you're not being scammed you know we are the attorneys that are handling this matter and this property and whatnot so it's one of those things that you absolutely absolutely need to make sure you are aware of especially as a first-time home buyer because the invoices can be quite substantial you know when you haven't budgeted for it it can be quite a big invoice but we're seeing a lot of the questions and comments on our social media platforms Vanessa now absolutely see you and loving those hard Salani play saying hello Mariki welcome Chanel for me as well and we've got semi my shots are saying offer to purchase is a binding document people needs to not just run to sign up immediately after viewing the property and that's such a big one don't be forced into you know signing an offer to purchase I know sometimes estate agents can make it seem as though just sign you know you can get out of it don't do it and Chanel for us saying you should ask beforehand what is the costs involved and that's quite a big one right so really understanding the different costs that are involved in this we're going to go for a very quick break and we're going to find out who the potential winner of that 2500 rands that is in the money bag is I hope you're watching whoever's going to you know be a winner hope you're watching so you can end off so we can end off the Friday with giving away the money and you can have a really great weekend knowing that you're you're 2500 rands richer so let's see who the potential lucky winner is of the 2500 rands and the winner is Uko Sorkhumelo if you are watching make sure that you drop us a text down here below to claim that 2500 rands otherwise it's going to roll over to Monday it's going to be 3000 rands if it rolls over if it rolls over so Uko Sorkhumelo do make sure that you reach out to us to claim your primes now I am this evening of course in conversation with Marika Henler who's an associate at Snaiman attorneys and we're looking at the convincing process which is something that we really need to be aware of as people who are interested in property whether you're going to just buy your primary residence or by going to buy your investment properties now Marika one of the things that you mentioned earlier on was of course around the suspense of um clause I think let's look at then you know fulfilling that suspense of condition because one of the things that happens is that you know I would say a relatively generic suspense of course for people put in is you know obviously getting their home financing and not going to the extent of saying that they must be satisfied with it or it must be a hundred percent for example which helps you um quite a bit I think explain that for our viewers because it it does help when you are very explicit because if you just said you know you you must have confirmation of sort of bond finance and your bank comes and gives you an 80 percent you know bond finance you would have essentially met that criteria and you would be expected to raise that 20 percent so how do we make sure that we're able to fulfill our suspensive conditions that comes in when you are negotiating your offer to purchase and in some instances people do pre-qualification so they do know what more or less they will be able to qualify for but that's not in all instances so in most instances people do try for a hundred percent bond and that's exactly what they would include on the offer to purchase for example let's make your purchase price a million right they would say the offer is subject to them obtaining a bond to the amount of one million one million right and then if they do not get that obviously your agreement with laps but halfway through maybe let's say they do obtain an 80 percent bond or a 90 percent bond in that instance there it is possible for the conveyance to draw up an addendum normally or estate agent would also help with that and both parties would then sign an addendum to the agreement to say that the purchaser has accepted the lower bond amount and they waive the condition to obtain a hundred percent bond they have to pay the deposit and the transfer of the receipt that's exactly also showing why this agreement is for the protection of the purchaser if they do then get a bond granted for less than the amount that stipulated in the offer to purchase they can back away and say sorry I did not get the hundred percent bond you cannot hold me liable in terms of this agreement but in other cases they can sign the addendum and they can proceed and one of the things Merica that you know you're mentioning just now is how often more often than not for the protection of the purchaser making sure that you know add in that hundred percent I know some even add in the interest rate that they would be comfortable with so they'd say you know either let's say for example at max a prime plus 0.5 so if any of the banks you know give them prime plus let's say 0.75 then the you know the OTP would lapse because they didn't get a rate that they were comfortable with and they probably you know would have tried to negotiate and unfortunately weren't able to be successful what are some of the clauses Merica that you found a lot of sellers want to be included as much as possible to make sure that the the I'll say the the deal goes through or that they themselves are able to essentially offload this particular property because I want to look at both sides so the one where sellers are like okay this is a creative suspense of clause I can add and then we'll touch on ones that you know as a purchaser it would be in your best interest if you consider adding some of them so it close definitely to the benefit of of the seller would be your 72 hour clause some call it your backdoor clause some call it your continued marketing clause so let's say for example there is a suspense of condition in the OTP that your purchaser needs to sell their property obviously they are granted then an extended period to see whether they can sell their property let's say two months that would be longer than your normal suspensive condition where they just have to claim a bond then your seller would have to make sure that they do reserve the right for themselves to continue marketing the property in for example an instance where they do get a second offer in where that offer is unconditional or the conditions are already met then they can place or notify the current purchaser to say that I do have a second offer in line you have the amount that the time period agreed upon which would normally be three days or 72 hours to provide us with your offer to purchase your property which would make the suspense of condition fulfilled otherwise the seller will then have reserved the right to cancel the current sale agreement and proceed with the second purchase that's one of the base conditions for your seller to have in if there are suspensive conditions especially suspensive conditions which would run over an extended period of time and and then Erica when we then look at the you know the purchaser side and we've already touched on you know on one around you know how much bond finance you're able to secure and we're even able to go to adding the interest rate that you'd be comfortable with I think what are some really great suspensive clauses that a purchaser can potentially look at including to also just best protect them when they sign an offer to purchase so your two basic suspensive conditions that you would find are for example your loan agreement and selling selling of a property but let's say for example we look at a deceased the seized sale obviously they would have to be a a suspensive condition in that the master approves the sale but let's not just look at suspensive conditions normal conditions that your purchaser would want in there a specific one would be fixtures and fittings which they normally always overlook we've had earlier recently where the seller actually removed the gas stove because it was not in the fixtures and fittings so purchasers whenever you do sign an ITP make sure that you do go over the fixtures and fittings make sure what the seller will remove and what will be what will stay at the property when when you do get it you know Madika when you talk about the the fixtures they're actually reminding me we were literally doing this in our law class last week but we're even looking at it from a commercial property perspective which is a very different dynamic all together when it's you know commercial and industrial property and and I want to take in a few of the comments and questions from our viewers at home we've got Umunzhan is saying yes I must say that again I'm going into property with a lot of knowledge private property has shared with me and then Umunzibuteli is saying buying two properties at a go to Shea I dragged the process to the deadlines so I could make the fourth 20k then I paid it all so much leaving so much money leaving my accounts gave me a mild chest pains look Menzi I know your pain I absolutely know that pain especially when you're only budgeted for half the amount because usually when it transfer costs let's say they work out to be about 50k for two properties uh you know you've got it saved up it may have taken you substantial amount of time then learning that you actually needed to have saved up for 100,000 rents certainly does leave you with quite a lot of chest pains I you know Merica I think I want just then to to look at because I think one of the great things is we have a really good sense of as a purchaser as well as the seller what we can certainly put in place to best protect each other because I think one of the great things with properties that you really do want to not screw anybody over and the other side also doesn't want to feel like they've been screwed over right so you really do need to be able to meet each other halfway as much as possible when we then look at people who unfortunately have signed an offer to purchase and we're not aware that this is a legally binding document that you are going to be held to what then happens if somebody and let's say it's so relatively early on in the transaction wants to pull out and and I say this particular reference to they didn't they had only said let's say Suspensive Closes at Bond Finance is secured they hadn't said you know to 100% so they do get you know different banks offering them an amount but it's not 100% that said most it's 90% and so the Suspensive Closes has been met on the one hand but they of course are feeling bad I don't have that 10% to raise what then happens in situations like that and how will that impact particularly the purchaser and the costs that may be associated if they're adamant that listen I'm pulling out I'm not going ahead with this at all yeah so my actually we had a matter like this about two months ago where the purchaser obviously she she says she wasn't aware of all the costs that they had to be paid associated with a transfer and a bond registration she fulfilled the Suspensive Conditions and by the time we started claiming the transfer costs she literally let us know but I do not have any other finances or means of obtaining the finance to pay the transfer and the bond registration costs which were quite extensive and she then opted to cancel the agreement unfortunately this will mean breaching the terms of the agreement as the agreement will most probably or most definitely state that the purchaser needs to pay the transfer costs in that instance we had the seller first placed her on terms which was seven days she were given a week to perform and and still she were adamant that she did not have the transfer costs or the means to get the transfer costs or the bond costs as well after that the seller then elected to cancel the agreement she was really aware of this this so she at the end of the day had to pay the state agents commission as damages and also the transfer costs up to the stage where we were by then so there's a sliding scale of transfer costs to be paid it depends on how far in the transaction the conveyance has gone for example let's say you reach up until the stage where the conveyance has applied for clearance figures has submitted all the documents to SARS that would be more or less a 40% of the transfer fees that had to be paid to the conveyances there were instances which we had where the transfer was cancelled up until the last moment right before enlargement for example when the purchaser said that they did not wish to continue with the sale for reason private reasons for example and they did not have the finances or their circumstances changed still it amounts to a breach of agreement and there are damage viable for example like I said the state agents commission transfer costs and bond costs as well and I think it's just such an important thing to note that you know pulling out at such an advanced stage I mean the moment it reaches your registration it's so late I mean obviously it's still hasn't been registered so you know in principle you can pull it out but you don't want to get to that stage in a in a matter and pulling out at that time that's why I always emphasize that when you're going to buy property you must have done your due diligence you must be certain rather take more time trying to choose a place than less time go and see the place the second the third and the fourth time if you need to because once the you know you've signed the offer to purchase and the bowl gets rolling there's so many different implications that you you need to certainly be aware of America before I let you go you know what are some of the you know differences what comes to the transfer processes and some of the provinces before registration that our viewers at home should be aware of so there's one province I want to talk about and that's the province of our practice in Puma Langa so I I do think that most purchases and sellers are not aware whenever you do a transfer in Puma Langa any any town in Puma Langa, Whitbank, Middleburg, Nile Sprite it's subject to a Spruma certificate being launched together with the transfer and this will indefinitely it will definitely delay the transfer as a Spruma certificate can take up to 21 working days and even more in some instances where it is found that there are some discrepancies that the municipality aren't happy with and so we've actually had quite a few instances where sellers have property in Puma Langa I don't know whether you know we have the famous Mall of Park here where they do own the properties and they weren't aware that a Spruma certificate needs to be obtained and then obviously the conveyances are blamed for a delay in transfer but like I said there are certain requirements that are provincially bound for example when you buy coastal areas then your beetle certificates come in as well but the most important one that I want to emphasize is the Puma Langa one where a Spruma certificate needs to be launched with every transfer and Marika you've done the thing that attorneys do where they assume we all know what they're talking about when we talk of the Spruma certificate what is it because I know viewers at home are probably wondering okay this is the first that I'm hearing of it uh chances are you know people in Puma Langa who brought property they know but we're in Khao Deng we're in North and Cape we're in all these other provinces where we have been encountered it what is the certificate so initially it was thought that the Spruma certificate only relates to building plans yeah it does to some extent relate to building plans it also relates the municipality wants to check whether all services on the property has been activated and paid if I can put that in simple terms and also whether there are any encroachment onto another urban and and that's the crux of it the municipality does due diligence on each and every property before they will issue the Spruma certificate specifically regarding zoning building plans encroachments on to other properties and the municipal services there are few phases which it has to go through for example the electricity department the the storm water department and for for example that needs to have the approval before the certificate will be issued you know in in in in principle I I like you know the Spruma certificate and the intention behind it and would even want a similar case to be extended across property you know transfers unfortunately we also know the slow paced nature of our municipalities and how it doesn't become a smooth and seamless process because in principle we know why that should be important and why we probably wanted across our different you know properties because if you are buying your property you'd want to know that everything not just from the legal perspective but literally the services are well-running and even the municipalities like no we know we're giving you water and electricity and we've certified that yes these these are services are running in your property now miracle before I let you go this evening I can see unfortunately all from Ocosa Ocosa has not picked up their hand it seems like we're going to have a roll over they still have a few minutes before we wrap up our conversation but before I let you go any final tips for our viewers at home when it comes to you know the conveying process especially the first time home buyers I think I almost want to also add people who are going to be buying their second properties and they want to sell the first property you know what tip can you get in structuring the OTP of where they want to buy because some of them say that it's subject to this property being sold first and you want to make sure it does get sold you're not left you know qualified for this and you now have two bond payments that you're making out so how can they also best navigate that that's 100% right so I actually stated to yourself whenever you are selling your property and buying another property make 100% sure that you do make that offer to purchase subject to the sale of a successful sale and transfer of your property but only for the reason that you won't have somewhere to live if you sell your property if you obviously when you sell your property and you buy another property and the first sale doesn't go through and your deposit for the second purchase would obviously come from the sale of your property so that's for financing reasons as well and another aspect I want to just touch on that we found that sellers do not normally know when they sell their property is that if you have obtained a bond over the property which you've purchased 10 years ago which you are now selling that that bond still needs to be cancelled even though it is paid up and to effect cancellation is a deeds office process on its own there will be a cancellation attorney appointed by the bank and you will have to pay bond cancellation fees and most sellers that we do talk about say that I've paid to have the bond registered why should I have paid to have it cancelled unfortunately that's the bank you have to pay to your bond cancelled even though it is paid up yeah I think that that's probably a question to ask to the bankers that we've had it open we paid for it and most people don't pay upfront so they've effectively you know paid for it over the loan term where if the the amount to say 5000 you get added on and when you look at the interest just of that 5000 component it will drive you crazy I've done the maths it drives me insane every time I think about it and that's why for a primary residence you almost want to have the money upfront so you pay for it like just pay for it don't have it be added to your facility because once you become that random saints person it it will drive you in like interest of 5000 over your 20-year loan term it's a lot so just make sure that you at least have your bases covered in that regard oh Marike that's we're gonna leave it this evening thank you so much for joining us it's always such a pleasure to have you on thank you so much Zomai it's a pleasure being here and just also seeing you and seeing just being part of the show is really amazing you educate people to

Welcome back to my channel. If you knew my name is Akira Jenae and thanks for joining me in this video today. By the time you see that I'm going to be trying out watercoloring. I saved about a month ago, so I wanted to try it and I'm about to try a new color. I usually always do red, different shades of blonde, and I've been orange before. So I'm gonna try to get a perfect navy blue color. If I can do that. I ordered this hair myself from a company called Supernova here. I got a 16 inch closure, and I got 20.2 and 24 inch of bundles. I'm recording this in my room. I would have done it in my kitchen. But it's not really good lighting downstairs. I have to do it upstairs. This is the 20. So 24 is 20. I mean, that's what I'm going to do with this one. So yeah, I'm very excited. I've already filled my bowl up here. I got this little plastic container from Dollar Tree for a dollar, and this is just going to be my Diane bowl, I guess. And I already put warm to hot water already in here, but I did boil some downstairs. So I'm about to put that in here and down.  So yeah, they ain't about to get messed up at all, honey.  Now I am going to do a strand test serum.  And I would want to use something plastic. I watched a couple videos and a couple people was like, it's better to use something plastic. Okay. I'm actually going to turn it over and use the applicator part because I see it kind of stuck to the bottom of my thing. So a napkin first, just kind of seeing. That's how it'll look. Now moving on to the actual strand test. My inside of the clip of how that strand test actually looks, it didn't really show up on the camera really good. So I just inserted the clip, but yeah, I really liked it. So moving on to my first bundle. This is, I think this is my longest bundle. I was kind of scared to dip it in there, but I just went ahead, soaked it all the way down there, as you can see. And I didn't want to put the roots in just yet, but I just decided to dunk everything down in there and making sure that I get every single strand because I don't want any blonde showing in this hair. So after trying to use it with the applicator brush, I just went through and kind of finger combed it with my fingers and I didn't want this hair to be like a light color. I wanted it to be kind of, you know, on the darker side. So the more you dip the hair into the water, the darker it will get. If you want your hair lighter, then, you know, don't dip it as much and I used the, I think I used the whole bottle of the Royal Navy dye. Okay, so moving on to my second bundle. I'm just gonna repeat the exact same process that I did for the first bundle. Just making sure I dip it in there a lot to get the, you know, darker color that I want personally and just finger combing through to make sure I don't see any blonde and just dunking the whole bundle into the water.  I was kind of scared to dunk the, you know, whole closure in there or get, you know, most of the lace in the water because I was scared that it would tint, turn blue, mess up the closure, everything like that, but I decided just to dunk it through there. My knots wasn't bad, like it didn't tint the lace blue or anything like that. And I didn't bleach my knots prior to doing this and I didn't bleach my knots after. And at the end of the video, you'll see that, you know, it still worked out perfectly fine without even bleaching a knot. So you don't always have to bleach your knots, but my stylist, she did put concealer or foundation or something just on my part. So, I mean, it all worked out great, but just finger combing through to make sure I get everything and here I had a little bit left in my last bottle. So I just went ahead and poured all the dye into there. I went back and dunked my closure and my three bundles into the water. So just to make sure that, you know, it was dark enough of how I want my color to be. My bundles came out perfect. My only concern was my closure. Completely freaked out. But my hairstylist was like, girl, once I put it in and, you know, curl it up and everything for you, it will be fine. And she was right. I was completely feeling myself like this color looks so good on me. I was in love. Like you couldn't tell me nothing. Okay, period. But if you end up doing this hairstyle, you know, tag me in your pictures that you post so I can see. But I hope you enjoyed this video. Don't forget to like, comment and subscribe. And until my next one, I will see you then.


SSAs are a subset of school choice. It's one form of school choice. There are other ways that you can give families choices in education. Most of the opposition to school choice is not from the parents. As you suggest, polls suggest that parents are very much in favor of families having choices. The teachers union tends to come out against it. They're fearful that school choice is going to start to take funds away from public schools. I don't think that there's strong evidence for that. It's an understandable fear. And I think legislators are trying to build in protections, in fact, in Missouri. If a child leaves a public school and receives an ESA and takes it to a private school, if they attend a public school, leave and attend a private school with an ESA. That public school continues to get that child's funding for, I think, up to five years. And so a lot of the arguments of opponents don't seem to hold water.


So the challenge, for me anyway, is to try to think about places and the land as a series of layers. And of course, when we think of layers, we think sort of archaeologically that those ones that are buried, well, they're dead and gone, right? But what we see now, actually, I'm going to argue, is that there's a very strong revitalization in indigenous communities right now. Some more than others. But when I say revitalization, what I mean is that people are reconnecting with the language, with the ceremonies, with the societies. A lot of the objects, ceremonial objects like bundles that were lost for different reasons and were in museums in Europe are now being brought back, they're being repatriated. And those are like textbooks, right? Soon as they're opened, people peel back the layers and all the memories of stories they've heard come back. And what that is is that that's like a map of the land. So all of this is happening in indigenous communities around Edmonton, right? And so how now, how can we comprehend this now in terms of all the stuff I've talked about? How can we see this as social studies teachers, as educators, as, I guess, an opportunity rather than a pain in the ass? So my way of thinking through this is something I call indigenous metisage. So what I'm interested in, in my work and curriculum, I'm interested in, first of all, thinking about those interactions between Aboriginal and Canadian. And I say they're indigenous here because they couldn't happen somewhere else. I'm interested in the local stories, the remembrances of what happened at particular places. So that's the second part, right? I'm interested in those particular places. And then the third part is the artifacts that are at those places. So when I use the term artifact, I'm thinking in terms of maps, a fort could be an artifact, rocks, certain kind of rock formations. A lake, like Laxanan, you know? I think these, what this works for me, what this does for me, is that it provides kind of an aperture, I guess, I could say, into this relationship that is so problematic and helps us try to understand it in more relational ways, more ethically relational ways.


By transcription, the National Broadcasting Company presents... COUNTER SPY! Ding, counter spy, calling Washington. Counter spy reports to the American people. I brought you each week at this time. Now, the case of the kleptomaniac clues. What the... I wanted to see you before you left Frisco. Hey, who are you? And how did you get into my hotel room? What's the difference? I'm called a manager and head... Drop that phone, Trafford. What is this? What's that gun for? What do you want? That briefcase you're carrying. What? The briefcase. Hand it over and you won't get hurt. It'll do no such thing.   Sit down in that chair. We'll just tie you up so you won't make no fuss. While I'm blowing out of here. Just why? Why are you doing this? Just why? Fado, what else? I don't know what's inside this thing, but certain people are willing to pay plenty to find out.  Or is that a foolish question? In view of being met at the boat by you, love, let's say it's a perfect one. Darling, always the appropriate sentiment. The Orient has its fascination at least, but it does not have you. I hope it was dull, of course. Oh, business was quite good, but nothing else. And speaking of business, how is our little curio shop with its clocks, knick-knacks, and whatnot? Excellent, darling. Good. I'm expecting a rather interesting shipment soon. Oh, will that mean another sea-going excursion for me? It could. Perhaps I'll go with you this time. Would you like that? I refuse to answer a question like that. Its intent is much too obvious. Darling. Oh, here we are.  Now, keep the change. I left Doreen in charge of the shop. Oh, how is she? As usual. She handles the carriage trade exceedingly well. Uh-huh. At times I think you're a bit too interested in her. What? Oh, nonsense. At least why she's hardly more than a child. Yes, I know that, but are you? Oh, Miss Palmer... Hello, Doreen. How are you, Mr. Monroe? Nice to see you back. Thank you. It's nice to be back. How've you been? Just fine. Thank you. Was your trip successful? Mm-hmm, very. I'm glad. Doreen, were there any messages while I was gone? No, Miss Palmer, but there's a man waiting to see you in your office. A man? Oh, Mr. Omak. A very curious thing happened. Curious? Yes. I... I could have sworn he deliberately put one of our teakwood figures in his pocket. What? And as though he realized I'd seen him, he put it back on the display shelf. But perhaps it was a mistake. Perhaps. Come along to the office, Mitchell. Mr. Omak may be a buyer. Yes. Or a seller. See you later, Doreen. It's a lovely girl. If one likes the type. Always waiting for somebody. That's me. Who's sitting behind my desk, Omak? Oh, excuse me. I hope I didn't soil nothing. You have what you were sent to get? You mean Mr. Trafford's briefcase? You know that's what I mean. Do you have it? Yeah, I got it. Give it to me. Not so fast. Well, what is it? There's been a change made since I first talked to you. Change? What do you mean? The price you're paying. I don't like it. Oh, you don't. No, I don't. So you'll have to make it fatter. Tell me, love, where'd you find this cheap highwayman? Never mind that now. Omak, we agreed on $10,000. Yeah, well, I need 10 more.  You know how it is. Cost of living going up and down. I won't hear this kind of street corner conniving. OK, OK, suit yourself. And may I ask just what will happen if you don't get what you want? The counterspies would love to get their hands on a little setup you've got here. What? You've got till tomorrow to pay my price. You wouldn't go to the counterspies. Huh? Try me and find out. David Harding, Counterspie Headquarters, Washington, to San Francisco Field Office. Special directive to Agent Carl Braden. Three, Mr. George Trafford. Proceed on description of man who stole briefcase and on any other information Trafford can supply. I'm leaving by jet immediately. Have correlation of data ready for my inspection of unarrival. End of message. Oh, Miss Johnson, have you contacted Agent Peters in the St. Louis Field Office yet? He's on the Y-Mouser, line number three. Oh, good. Hello. Hello, Peters. How are you, Mr. Harding? Peters, I'm leaving Washington by jet for San Francisco within the hour. I'm picking you up en route, so gauge your time carefully. Right, what's up? No time now. I'll fill you in later. OK, chief. And preparatory to leaving San Francisco, Trafford stopped to rest at a hotel until his train was due to depart for Washington. I follow most of it up to now, Mr. Harding, but uh. Oh, what, Peters? Well, who is Trafford? And just what was in this popular briefcase of his? Well, Trafford is in no official capacity with the government, Peters. He's merely a private citizen who happens to be an astute industrial organizer. Sort of an efficiency expert. Yes, you could call it that. And the big top secret in that briefcase? A draft of plans for mobilization of certain key industries. Plans, factory locations, working schedules, objectives, probable results, so forth. I see. Which, of course, was intended for the hands and eyes only of the defense coordinator in DC. I wonder in whose hands and under what eyes they are now at this very moment. That's what we've got to find out, Peters. And fast. This is Elise Pomeroy. Quite sure of yourself, aren't you? Yeah. You still demand 10,000 more? That's right. I was thinking of a counter-offer. Shall we say 7,500?  I still can't hear you so long, Ms. Pomeroy. Wait. My price stands at 20,000. You can't auction with me. 20,000 or like I said, the briefcase goes to the counter-spies. All right. Very well. You shall have your money. Don't be insolent. Why not? I can afford it. I'll have the money for you at 11 o'clock tonight. Where do I pick it up? My home. 245 Ridgewood Drive. Ridgewood Drive. Thank you, love. To your very good health, Elise. And to yours. May you always feel as wonderful as you look. And may you always be as truthful as you sign. So much for that. Why did you ask Omak to come here to your house, Elise? I don't want him seen near the shop again. It's much too risky, darling. Quite a fellow, isn't it? Or should I say felon? He's been useful. Let's see now, within the short space of 24 hours, he's committed a holdup, blackmail, and incidentally gave way to a touch of kleptomania. Very impressive. Kleptomania? Of course, yesterday in the shop. You heard Doreen describe his attempt to palm a teakwood piece just before we arrived. Perhaps she made it up. Oh, come now, my dear. Does it sound so incredible considering what Omak is? Besides, why would Doreen make up a thing like that? I wouldn't know, would you? No. And by the way, she knows nothing about business transactions in the Orient, does she? No. Unless she knows about anything concerning us, the better. Why, Elise, I would almost think you're jealous of Doreen from your town of voice. Would you now? Yes, but you've no reason to be. That must be Omak. I'll let him in. Thank you. Quite a joint you got here, a little far from town now, isn't it? Do you have the briefcase? You're looking at it. Hi, Jack. If you're talking to me for the beginning, I'll leave Jack out of it this time. Take it easy, Governor. Just being friendly. I'll take the briefcase if you don't mind. First my payoff if you don't mind. Just as you say. I'll get it from my desk. You mind if I have a drink? See, you've got a few spread around here. Drink mine if you like. I haven't touched it. Well, thank you. And believe me, I wouldn't mind if you did. Love. I'll see you here, Omak. Disregard him, Mitchell. Sure, Monroe. Do that. After tonight, you two won't be bothered with me anymore. Well, here's to the end of a beautiful friendship, eh? Something wrong, Omak? This drink. Now, look at the mess you've made. You? You put something in the drink. Only a drug. A very quick, effective, and deadly poison.  A very quick poison, Omak. Even quicker when you expend energy unnecessarily. I'll get you out. The end of a beautiful friendship, exactly as he said. Elise. I should have let you in on my little plan, I suppose. Well, I didn't expect anything like this. Don't be so shocked, darling. After all, you realize you can't trust a black mailer. He would have eventually given us away, you know. You really do mean business, don't you? Yes, Mitchell. I really do. Now, let's get rid of him. Well, that's about the size of it, Mr. Harding. And I have no idea how he got into that hotel room. Or who could have sent him, Mr. Traven? No, I'm afraid not. My completion of the draft, as well as my trip to the capital, was strictly secret, as far as I know. But you'll be able to identify this man when we pick him up. Oh, absolutely, Mr. Peters. Mr. Harding, isn't it possible that he's passed the plans to another party by now? Yes, more than likely. Can't a new draft of your survey be substituted? Oh, yes, yes, certainly. We're putting in another seven or eight months on relocations and shifting schedules. It's not the happiest situation, I can tell you. And time's important. So it's a question of retrieving what we have or substituting a plan which, at best, will be inferior to the original. Well, we can't risk the operation of your plan, Mr. Traven, as long as there's a chance of it being known to unfriendly powers. Then you've got to get it back to me, sir, before it's somehow shipped out of the country. We'll try, Mr. Traven. You can be sure of that. We're going to try every way possible. Well, hello, Dory. Mr. Monroe. Oh, I didn't expect to find you in Elise's office. I was just filing some invoices. Miss Pomeroy should be back shortly. Good. We, uh, we can wait together, huh? Of course, Mr. Monroe. Oh, no. My name is Mitchell. Oh, Miss Pomeroy might not like me to call you there. Well, Miss Pomeroy isn't here. And my friend's called me by my first name. I consider you a friend. Do you? Yes. I'm glad. I've always been afraid she might misunderstand. Elise? Oh, not at all. Why is there to misunderstand? Well. Doreen, do you like me? Yes. Yes, I do.  Will you be going away soon? Yes, I'm afraid so within a few days. I'm sorry. Are you? Yes. I'll be back, though. Will you? But until I am. Oh. Hope I'm not interrupting anything. Hello, Elise. I've been waiting for you. Not expecting me quite so soon. Well, as a matter of fact, I was getting a bit impatient. I'm glad you were able to find a way of containing your impatience.  Yes, Miss Pomeroy. Before you go, Doreen. Yes? I want you to remember something. What is it? This. Now go about your business. And remember that. I'll be sure to remember it, Miss Pomeroy. Why did you do that? You know, without being told, so we won't discuss it. I haven't said it, at least behave sensibly. Be quiet. You and your affairs are unimportant at the moment. I've had the plan we stole from Trafford microfilmed. You'll leave with it on the first boat out of San Francisco for Hong Kong tomorrow night. When is that? Are you coming along with me? No. Because everything we do from now on will be done on a strictly business basis. Really? Yes. So mind your step, lover. You'll know the way I do business.

Harding, go ahead, Braden. The body of a man fitting description furnished by Mr. Trafford was found on the outskirts of the city, death by poisoning. Identification, Charles Omak. He is now at the city morgue. All right, no further instructions, Braden. Yes, Chief. Pick up Mr. Trafford, Peters, and meet me at the city morgue. A dead man just turned up, who may be the one. We'll need Trafford to identify him. Yes. Yes, that's him. That's the man who took my briefcase. You're certain, Mr. Trafford. Absolutely. His driver's license said that Charles Omak. That name mean anything to you? No, no, nothing. They found this in his pocket, Mr. Harding. Oh, it's you up here. Teakwood. Little teakwood figure. I'd think for a guy who was also carrying a 30-yays. Yeah. Mr. Harding, will you need me any further? Oh, not at the moment, Mr. Trafford. Then I'll leave if you don't mind. I don't care for the atmosphere of a morgue very much. Nor do we. Come on, Peter. Any place special, Chief? Yes, very special, I think. I'd like to help you, Mr. Harding, of course, but I don't see how I can. Well, this man, Omak, was carrying in his pocket a small teakwood figure on the base of which was the name of your shop, Miss Palmer. That's strange, I'll admit, but I'm at a total loss to explain it. You're quite sure that you've never heard the name Charles Omak? I'm sure I'd remember if I had. Would you have any record of sale on such an item? Hardly. Not a terribly expensive piece. That one sells for $2. And as you can see, I have many more of the same type on display here in my shop. Yes, I see. Hi. Oh, hello, Mitchell. Hello, Elise. This is my business associate, Mr. Monroe. Mitchell, this is Mr. Harding and Mr. Peters of the United States Counter Spies. Gentlemen, how do you do? How are you? They seem to think that we might have information concerning a man named Omak, who was killed recently. Omak? Ever hear the name, Mr. Monroe? No, no, I don't believe I have. Well, we'll bother you no further at the moment. If anything of importance occurred to you, you'll conducts, of course. Of course. Goodbye. Thank you very much. That name is quite a number, huh, Chief? Maybe a wrong number. Get a stake out on this shop, Peters. Do you think they're lying? That's what we've got to find out, for sure. Harding speaking. Mr. Harding. Yes? I work in Ms. Pomeroy's shop. I was there this afternoon, and you were questioning her. Miss, go on. I remained out of sight, but I could hear everything that was said. I see. Go ahead, Ms. Pritchin. She lied to you. She did know a man named Omak. He was in the shop the day before yesterday. Will you swear to that in court? Should we call upon you? I'll be happy to. Well, where can you be reached? Hello? Hello? Yes? Peters, I'm sorry to hurt you. Thank you. Go ahead, Peters. Dave, I have that stake out on the Curio shop, and I personally tailed Monroe. What did you find out? He picked me leaving for Hong Kong tomorrow night. I checked with the clerk. And a report on the shop itself? No, not yet. Yes, but not officially. If he's a decoy and not carrying the papers, I don't want to false a rest charge. That'll tip our hand completely. We've got to stall him without him knowing we've done it. How? Well, a call to the customs department ought to do the trick. Now, in the meantime, put a surveillance squad on a girl named Doreen Bridgson. She works for Elise Palmeroy. She may not realize it, but Miss Bridgson is a sitting duck right this minute. I'll come in, Peters. Got to check in from Braden, Mr. Harding. Monroe's gone to the dock. Good. I expect a call from customs on that any minute. Now, you have a man watching Doreen Bridgson's apartment, huh? Since last night. Good. Oh, this is it. We hope. Harding. Yes. Oh, fine. Fine. No, no, nothing else. And thank you very much. All right. Goodbye. What's your? The customs people wound Mr. Monroe in red tape, the detail of which I'll spare you, and revoked his passport temporarily. Which means he won't sail tonight. Or any other night. Now, we've got to move fast. First, we'll have the Bridging Girl picked up. We'll need her later. Then, we'll see what the deluxe quarters aboard a luxury liner look like, Peter. I like that pun. Don't pack, though. We're traveling light. Mitchell. Hello, Elise. What are you doing here? Why aren't you aboard ship? It seems the best laid schemes of mice and men. Will you make sense? All right. My passport's been revoked. I can't sail. What? I think I speak distinctly. How did that happen? I don't know. Some sort of a mix-up on dates.  This changes everything. Give me your ticket. Ticket? You still have that, don't you? Yes. Well, give it to me. All right. Well, what are you going to do? I have an hour and a half to make the boat. I'll sail in your place. Where's the microfilms? My wristwatch case. Well, give it to me. All right. Here, take it. I've got to rush. At least my passport's in order. Now, listen, you can't leave me here holding the bag, my sweet. I won't take it.  A bore, is it? We'll see how boring I am. I'd like you to put me through to the United States counter-spies. Yes, please, and hurry. Counter-spy field office. My name is Mitchell Monroe. I'd like to... We should be at the dock in a few minutes, Mr. Harding. I hope our suspect doesn't miss the boat. We'll ask the captain to postpone sailing time if necessary. But I don't think it will be. Harding, come in, Brayden. Mitchell Monroe was shot and killed about 15 minutes ago while attempting to call our field office from a pay station. How did you check it that quickly, Brayden? The receiver was off the hook. We got a police report on it within a few minutes after. All right, Brayden, no instructions. A little release is going to have plenty to answer for it, chief. Let's get to that boat, Peter. Step on it. What time is it, Peter? 20 minutes to midnight and to sailing time, too. I wish something would break, chief. Edwell, don't worry. I'm getting a little too accustomed to the grandeur of this deck-gammon. Kind of tempts me to chuck everything and go for little cruise myself. Well, Miss Pomeroy. Mr. Harding. Come in, Miss Pomeroy. What are you doing here? We asked the same of you. Just how dare you ask me anything? What right have you to be in my cabin? We thought it was Mr. Monroe's cabin. It's in his name. What of it? He had passport trouble. Nothing that wouldn't clear up in a day or so. He'd have been able to sail. It must be urgent business that prompts you to so hurriedly take his place. I want you to leave immediately. When we leave, lady, you're leaving with us. On what charge? Treason for one. Murder for another. Ridiculous. I think we'll be able to make it stick, Miss Pomeroy. I'm sure that a thorough search of your belongings will reveal a presence of certain top secret plans for wartime mobilization of industry in this country. You're mad. Probably on microfilm. An added to that, we have the eyewitness testimony of Doreen Bridgson that you knew. Charles Ohmack knew him well. She's lying. She's trying to get even for a personal difference. You know Mitchell Monroe is dead. What? Murdered. No. No, I didn't know. You're almost convincing. She's probably telling the truth, Peter. I don't think she'd have had time to kill Monroe. You're going to arrest me, then do so. Let's get off this boat. Not so fast, Miss Pomeroy. There's more where you came from. So let's just wait here for a few minutes and see who it is. What do you mean? I'm sure you know exactly what I mean. At least do you know? Well, come in, Mr. Travert. Hey, what is this, Harding? Don't you know? Oh, I certainly don't. Then I'll tell you. You had yourself robbed of your own plans. Robbed? What are you talking? Ohmack didn't know you. Miss Pomeroy did the hiring and carefully pointed you out a perfect way of deflecting any and all suspicion from yourself.  You had a neat setup for an espionage, Agent Travert. You enjoyed the confidence of high government officials while you were planning to transmit your industrialization plans to an unfriendly power. You don't know what you're saying, either one of you do. But you made one small slip. According to the desk clerk of the hotel here in San Francisco, it was 2 o'clock when you checked in. They won't listen to this. You'd better listen, Travert, and close, because the United States Attorney is going to ask you questions later. When you arrived at the hotel, there was a southbound train leaving San Francisco at that very moment. So there was no reason for you to have been anywhere but on that train. No reason but your own personal one. Harding, you're making a grave error. The error is all yours, Travert, for showing up here in Miss Pomeroy's cabin. What's the angle for you coming, Travert? Skipping? Or just to give her some last minute instructions? It couldn't have concerned the microfilm plans. You have your own copies, I'm sure. Don't move any of you. Is that the gun that killed Monroe? A ballistics test should tell. There won't be any test. I don't know about that. My agents have the dark area completely surrounded. They let you in, but they're sure not to let you out, except with me. I'm willing to run the risk. Now, stay right where you are. Don't leave me, George. Sorry, Elise. I have to travel light now. I'm sorry. You know good. Come on, Peters. There he is, Chief. Stop or I'll shoot, Travert. He's headed for the rail. Stop, Travert. Stop or we'll fire. Let him have it. He's falling overboard. He's finished, Chief. Yes, but Miss Pomeroy isn't. Not yet. She'll stand trial and pay the penalty all traders eventually pay. Tune in every week, same time, same station, too. Counter-spy. Listen next week for the exciting case of the captured contact. When a famous lecturer canceled his tour, a solicitous friend canceled his life by murder.
