Résumé
The Mohawk Council of Kahnawake has reached a $333-million settlement with the Quebec and Canadian governments over a longstanding land grievance concerning Seigneury Sault St. Louis territory. The agreement aims to address historical issues related to territory mismanagement and displacement, offering financial compensation and formal apologies. This settlement, highlighting a significant move towards reconciliation, allows the Mohawk community to invest in future opportunities, although the deal does not include the return of any land. The deal still requires ratification through a community vote.
