Reminder – Indian Day School Settlement free Executor and Administrator workshop next Tuesday

02/10/2021

The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke (MCK) wishes to remind the community that a free Executor and Administrator workshop will take place next Tuesday, February 16^th, to assist those who are applying for settlements on behalf of deceased Kahnawa’kehró:non. Those wishing to participate must register in advance (details below).

It has become clear that a substantial number of people applying for the Settlement on behalf of estates of survivors (those who have passed away) have had difficulty in navigating the process and/or filling out the application forms. Therefore, for this workshop, Gowling WLG lawyers will walk participants through the forms, focusing on power of attorney and estate claims – which means both those with wills and those without wills.

The workshop will take place from 7:30pm to 9pm next Tuesday. This session is being offered in English. Following the presentation, participants will be able to ask questions.

To register for the event, please go to the following:
