The Kahnawà:ke Legislative Commission (KLC) wishes to inform the community that a Community Consultation to obtain a mandate to amend the MCK Election Law will be held on August 8, 2023, at the Golden Age Club from 6pm to 8:30pm.

The community will be asked for the following:

  2. Approval of the Purpose & Scope of the Kahnawà:ke Election Law
  3. Selection of three (3) Community Representatives to sit on the Technical Drafting Committee

PURPOSE: The Law is intended to provide the criteria and procedures for the nomination and selection of a twelve (12) member Council composed of eleven (11) Ratitsénhaienhs and one (1) Ohén:ton Í:iente ne Ratitsénhaienhs.
