Peguis First Nation in Manitoba has filed a lawsuit against its former leader, Glenn Hudson, over claims of financial misconduct. The legal case was started in late December 2025 in the Manitoba Court of King’s Bench to address concerns about how community money was handled during his time in office.
A 29-page court document alleges that Hudson was involved in dishonest activities, including taking kickbacks and making money transfers that were not approved. The claim also says he gave out valuable community contracts to companies in which he held a personal financial interest.
Hudson has publicly denied all of the accusations and has described the legal action as frivolous. He continues to defend his past actions as leader and is fighting the claims made by the current administration.
The community is now asking for a full accounting of its finances and is seeking money to make up for the alleged losses. This legal move is part of an effort to ensure that funds meant for the community are handled properly and to recover any missing money.
