    The Mohawk Council of Kahnawake (MCK) wasn’t consulted about the Northvolt electric car battery plant because it couldn’t demonstrate the project would harm the community’s ability to practice “ancestral activities” on the land located in the Monteregie.  That’s according to a sworn statement sent to Quebec Superior Court in late November by a regional director employed by Quebec’s environmental ministry (MELCCFP).   “To the knowledge of the MELCCFP, no ancestral Aboriginal activities linked to hunting, trapping, gathering, harvesting medicinal plants, or ceremonial practices have been practiced on the Northvolt project site, at least since the industrial use of the site, which began in 1878,” Stéphanos Bitzakidis wrote.
