Re Voter engagement during the upcoming Territorial elecon

31-August, 2016 Hi Tagish folks,

As you know, the Yukon will soon be in a Territorial elecon. Typically, Yukon elecons are called on a Friday, run for 31 days and get held on a Monday. The Premier must call the elecon by Friday 14-Oct. He may wait to call the elecon unl aer the upcoming Royal visit which is on 28-Sep. It is at his discreon.

For the riding of Mount Lorne - Southern Lakes, the three main pares have chosen their candidates (although there is always a chance for other candidates to come forward). The candidates are: • John Streicker, Yukon Liberals • Kevin Barr, Yukon NDP • Rob Schneider,

It is my hope and expectaon that we as candidates will work with the communies to increase voter engagement and turnout. One of the best ways to do this is to have events hosted in each of the four communies during the elecon. While each of us as candidates will no doubt hold some public events in the communies, all-candidate events like debates or town-halls are normally hosted by a local group / groups. I am wring to encourage you to host just such an event in Tagish. I would be happy to aend and would work to promote the event widely.

Once the elecon is called, our calendars fill up quickly, so it is always best to try and plan these events earlier rather than later. So I am wring to you now.

If you can think of other ways we can help get more folks in Tagish informed and out to the polls, or if you have any other quesons, then please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

John Streicker
