  • BYTE Seeks to Engage Young Voters in All Candidates Forum
    BYTE seeks to engage young voters in all-candidates forum Event date: October 7th, 5:30-7 Baked Café Free September 23, 2015 WHITEHORSE - For Immediate Release BYTE is seeking to engage young voters in the lead-up to the federal election with an all-candidates forum for youth. The event will take place on October 7th at 5:30pm at Baked Café and targets young voters and young prospective voters aged 18-35. All four Yukon federal candidates—Ryan Leef, Larry Bagnell, Melissa Atkinson, and Frank De Jong—have confirmed that they will attend the event, which will be moderated by BYTE’s Communications Coordinator Kara Johancsik “Young Yukoners are much less likely to vote than older generations,” says Johancsik. “Our goal with this forum is to put youth issues on the federal candidates’ agendas and to educate young people about federal party platforms with respect to issues that affect them.” The event is part of BYTE’s Yukon Youth Want campaign, a non-partisan social media campaign that asks young Yukoners to share youth issues with local politicians. BYTE has been collecting photographs of young people from across the territory holding up their own statement of what Yukon youth want and posting them to the BYTE Facebook page. “We often hear young people talk about housing, job security, student debt, access to education, and healthcare,” says Johancsik. “We plan to bring the issues expressed in the Yukon Youth Want campaign to the all-candidates forum.” The forum will start off with a few questions formulated by BYTE in light of the Yukon Youth Want campaign, and then audience members will get the chance to ask their own questions.

  • MARKUS BUCHART Has a BA (Hons.)
    Number 77 WITH Markus Buchart, former leader, the Green Party of Manitoba MARKUS BUCHART has a B.A. (Hons.) from the University of Manitoba and an M.A. from McGill University, both in economics. He worked for six years as a Manitoba government economist, primarily in the finance department in tax policy and federal- provincial fiscal relations, and later in the environment department. He subsequently earned an LL.B. from the University of Manitoba and currently practices law, mostly civil litigation, at the Winnipeg firm of Tupper & Adams. Mr. Buchart was the leader of the Green Party of Manitoba from 1999 to 2005. He sometimes describes himself as "a recovering economist and politician.” This interview followed a speech, “Dissipated Energy,” delivered at a Frontier Centre breakfast on September 6, 2006. Frontier Centre: To what degree do you think the power. But they become efficient in other ways, too. Take, Province of Manitoba is under-pricing the domestic sale for example, Japan or Germany, or some of the western of electricity? It’s called “power at cost,” but isn’t it European economies. They have high-cost energy, but they actually “power below cost”? Manitoba Hydro says it get used to that cost environment and they end up costs about four cents a kilowatt hour to produce, but becoming more competitive generally, not just in terms of they sell it locally for about three. their power consumption. In a way, we’re attracting the dinosaurs and non-competitive industries to come here, and Markus Buchart: Yes, they admit that. At a Public Utility that’s just a losing game.
