The small community will vote in referendum on accepting a $35 million package from the federal government on July 5. Ottawa offered the deal in exchange for the band dropping a lawsuit over industrial pollution which changed a tidal lagoon on the reserve into a reeking mass of water, unable to support aquatic life.
