Mock Session this Saturday

01/07/2008

The Mohawk Council of Kahnaw�:ke is inviting community members to another �Mock Session� of the new Community Decision Making Process to be held this Saturday, January 12. The session will take place in the Community Room at the Peacekeeper�s station from 9am to 3pm. Lunch is included.

�Time is of the essence,� said Chief John Dee Delormier. �We expect the first proposed law to use the Process to be announced shortly. The November Mock Session was a success, but there were suggestions to hold sessions on weekends and evenings as well.�

Once again, community members will be seated in three groups to discuss a non-existent law. The session will be used to familiarize people with the Process. �Practice makes perfect, and that�s exactly what this is: an opportunity for all of us to get familiar with a process that puts decision-making back into the hands of the people,� said Chief Delormier.
