As of now, Diabo said that the council table will continue to discuss the matter following the protest and the community meeting.
“We are taking it really seriously, we’re weighing everything,” said Diabo.
Another topic that took up the bulk of the meeting was the work Fair Wage Agreement, the Kahnawake Occupational Safety and Health Law, and the 2014 Labor Agreement.
“Some people had concerns with previous agreements. We need to work on communicating and really making sure that the law that we’re proposing are actually meeting the expectations of the community,” said Diabo.
