The Alberta Court of Appeal will hear from three Mohawk Indian councils in their appeal against the Glenbow museum to have a sacred false face mask returned. They are asking the court to overturn a decision by the Court of Queen's Bench that returned a mask to the Calgary Museum's Olympic exhibit said Chief Bud Morris of the Kahnawake Council.
