Premier Legault to Finally Meet with MCK Today
Written by Paul Graif on 16 August 2022
The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke’s Ohén:ton Í:iente ne Ratitsénhaienhs Kahsennenhawe Sky-Deer and Ietsénhaienhs Tonya Perron will meet with Quebec Premier François Legault this afternoon in Quebec City. This is the first meeting with Legault since he became Premier in 2018. The long delay in scheduling this meeting has been a cause for concern for the MCK, as meetings between Quebec’s premiers and Kahnawà:ke’s grand chiefs have been held as a matter of routine for many years. There has been added urgency to meet due to Kahnawà:ke’s strong concerns over Quebec’s Bill 96 language legislation. The meeting will take place at Legault’s office from 1 to 2 pm.
