Kahnawà:ke Getting a New Courthouse

A new courthouse is coming to Kahnawà:ke. Land is already being cleared, filled and levelled at the building site, which sits between K103.7’s studios and the Kahnawà:ke Animal Protection offices. The plan is to bring in a one-storey, modular building that will measure approximately 60 x 60.

“Justice Services is in the process of looking into securing a modular building that will be used to house different justice services”, says Commissioner of Justice, Kevin Fleischer. “Land has been designated next to the K103 radio station and the animal protection office for the future construction of the Community Justice Center”.

“There’s been a rapid expansion of our justice system over the past several years”, adds Fleischer. “We simply need proper space and facilities for our services, and to better serve the community”.
