    Archive of City Blog May 2019 to September 2020 No defunding of police, but NWT’s justice is being adjusted “While it may initially have been a global pandemic that illustrated the need for out-of- the-box thinking as it pertains to our justice and policing systems, it has been society’s recent awakening to the reality of racial injustice that has driven this home.” — NWT Justice Minister Caroline Wawzonek, Minister’s Policing Priorities for 2020 – 2021, delivered to the Legislative Assembly in June. The global pandemic could leave some lasting positive side-effects on the territory’s justice system. Easier access to bail and use of videoconferencing to help accused persons stay in their communities before trial are two new policies being considered to be made permanent that I’ve learned about. A lawyer told me that Yellowknife’s North Slave Correctional Complex has set up video terminals so that prisoners can see family members during remote visits. He said it “takes a bit of the sting” out of being incarcerated so far from home and family. Also, calls for a residential treatment centre in the NWT for those struggling with addictions have apparently been heard. Sort of. And the territory could emerge from COVID-19 restrictions around the same time as an updated Corrections Act will be fully implemented. NWT Justice Minister Caroline Wawzonek recently told a national legal magazine her government has managed since March to reduce the remand population by 63 per cent and its overall inmate population by 30 per cent. Those efforts to protect inmates and staff from the disease by reducing the number of people behind bars could become the norm, as they answer a (pre-pandemic) national call to reduce the number of Indigenous people behind bars.

    Canadian eview V olume 42, No. 4 Right to BaRe Arms Dress Guidelines in British Columbia’s Legislative Assembly p. 6 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SUMMER 2019 There are many examples of family members sitting in parliaments at the same time. However, the first father-daughter team to sit together in a legislative assembly did not happen in Canada until 1996. That is when Sue Edelman was elected to the 29th Yukon Legislative Assembly, joining her re-elected father, Ivan John “Jack” Cable. Mr. Cable moved to the North in 1970 after obtaining degrees in Chemical Engineering, a Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor of Laws in Ontario. He practiced law in Whitehorse for 21 years, and went on to serve as President of the Yukon Chamber of Commerce, President of the Yukon Energy Corporation and Director of the Northern Canada Power Commission. He is also a founding member of the Recycle Organics Together Society and the Boreal Alternate Energy Centre. Mr. Cable’s entry into electoral politics came in 1992, when he successfully won the riding of Riverdale in East Whitehorse to take his seat in the Yukon Legislative Assembly. Ms. Edelman’s political presence had already been established by the time her father began his term as an MLA. In 1988, she became a Whitehorse city councillor, a position she held until 1994. In her 1991 reelection, she received more votes for her council seat than mayor Bill Weigand received. Following her time on city council, she was elected to the Selkirk Elementary School council. In the 1996 territorial election, she ran and won in the Riverdale South riding.

From the press release, we are to understand that the creation of this Secretariat will “foster greater clarity, accountability, and consistency in the territory’s pandemic response. The Secretariat will be responsible for border compliance, enforcement, Protect NWT, 811, isolation centers, and personal protective equipment.” Our understanding of the announcement indicates that this Secretariat will be staffed by permanent employees “The Secretariat will be staffed by 150 full-time, part-time, and relief positions. The government is working on a breakdown of how many of those 150 positions will be new hires.” This announcement has raised several concerns from the business community. Thus far, the total cost of a new GNWT division is budgeted at $86m; $23.4m from the Federal Government funding that was earmarked to better prepare our healthcare system. The primary justification for our extensively restrictive regulations, rules, and policies regarding COVID-19 was not to overburden an already taxed health system. Thus, we feel the $23.4m would be better allocated to better preparing the healthcare system, not creating another unnecessary level of bureaucracy. The business community is very concerned about creating a division in the Health and Social Services department six months into a pandemic and five months since our last case.

I want to assure you that the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) recognizes the urgency of addressing the many impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic; and is acutely aware of the challenges and extreme impacts that are being faced by our territory’s business community. The health and safety of Northwest Territories (NWT) residents and the economic recovery of our territory are the two highest priorities that we are addressing as your government today. The NWT, as with all jurisdictions, has had to make strong and difficult decisions in the face of unknowns or what future recovery will look like.
