Kahnawake Railway Blockade Continues

 Image Montreal Quebec - A railway blockade remains in place in Kahnawake south of Montreal on Tuesday in support of the Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs opposing the construction of natural gas pipeline in British Columbia.
 
Residents of the Mohawk community have yet to dismantle the barricade after a draft agreement was reached between the senior federal and B.C. ministers and hereditary chiefs on land rights.
 
The agreement, which was struck over the weekend after three days of talks, still requires the approval of the Wet'suwet'en people.
 
In Kahnawake, the railway blockade has halted service on the Candiac train line, which brings commuters to and from Montreal.
 
Shuttle buses remain in place to help train users.
 
"The service on Candiac EXO Line 4 remains suspended for an indefinite period," the regional transit authority, wrote to commuters.
