Kahsennenhawe Sky-Deer is a Kanien’kehá:ka business leader, former politician, and strategist from Kahnawà:ke, near Montreal (Tiohtià:ke). A skilled negotiator, she has spent over a decade driving transformative agreements and positioning First Nations as key players in Canada’s economic future.
As Grand Chief of the Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke, she led major development initiatives and secured multi-million-dollar economic benefits through a landmark agreement with Hydro-Québec. This deal stands as a model of economic reconciliation in action, proving that strong partnerships with First Nations leaders drive shared prosperity. The agreement has since inspired chiefs and decision-makers across the country and continues to shape major negotiations.
