Random Telephone Survey: Membership

10/21/2010

The Mohawk Council of Kahnaw�:ke would like to inform the community that the Social Development Unit will be conducting a Random Telephone Survey of Kahnawa�kehr�:non to gauge public opinion on the issue of Membership.

Independent consultant Lori Jacobs has been contracted to carry out the brief survey, entitled �Membership in Kahnaw�:ke and the 2003 Kahnaw�:ke Membership Law,� beginning Monday, October 25th until Friday, November 12th. The same survey was also used at the recent series of information sessions on the History of Membership in Kahnaw�:ke, which took place throughout the month of October at the Peacekeeper station.

The goal of the survey is to gather as much information as possible on community sentiment leading up to the Membership Hearings scheduled to take place later this fall using the Community Decision Making Process. Community members are urged to participate if contacted. Participants will remain completely anonymous.
