The deadline has passed for nominations to the Mohawk Band Council…and there’ll be an election for chief.
Long-time chief, R. Don Maracle, is being challenged by Catherine Sharbot Duschene. Eight candidates are vying for the four seats on council…they are Joseph E. Brant, Keith Sero, incumbent Velma Hill-Dracup, Douglas Maracle, Christine Claus, incumbent Roy C. Maracle, incumbent Barry Brant, and Brenda Green-Edwards. Band members go to the polls on December 5.
