The Mohawk Council of Kahnaw�:ke (MCK) wishes to offer its sincerest condolences on the passing of Warren Lahache to the family, friends, and former colleagues of the former Peacekeeper and Rats�nhaienhs (elected Council Chief).

Mr. Lahache served as an elected Council member from 2006 to 2009. He was best known for serving with the Kahnaw�:ke Mohawk Peacekeepers for over 25 years, which included a stint as the Chief Peacekeeper. He was also the first Director of Community Safety (now the Public Safety Commission) with the MCK.

�I have known Warren and his family for many years,� said Grand Chief Joseph Tokwiro Norton. �We are all shocked and saddened by his sudden passing at such a young age. He was a man who accomplished a lot in his career, including taking on two very challenging roles � as Chief of the Peacekeepers and Council Chief. Our thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time.�
