In the one day trial on July 11, 2024 at 363 Broadway Ave in Winnipeg, the morning had Glenn Hudson’s legal representative offer up why the last Peguis First Nation election (April 6, 2021) should be thrown out.

If you follow Jason Harvey, Hudson’s lawyer, the key issue to overturning the election was the interference with the electoral officer executing his duties, citing the First Nations Election Act.

Harvey in the leadup to that statement, cited the band meeting March 20, 2023 where Hudson tried to introduce the qualified annual audit report which contained a line that said the debt was written down to $25 million. That meeting was adjourned after council members present at the meeting voted to adjourn, preventing Hudson from presenting the audit. He claimed that if people knew that there would have been more votes cast for Hudson.
