695-3781 P.2 Northwest Territories Legislative Assembly As the MLA for Nahendeh I Would Like to Provide to You in Writing My Jul 03 08 03:49p K. Men i ceche 695-3781 p.2 Northwest Territories Legislative Assembly M0, Member for Nahendeh Mackenzie Valley Land & P® Box 2130 Yellowknife, NT X1A 2P6 Dear Sirs, As the MLA for Nahendeh I would like to provide to you in writing my views and opinions with regard to the Water License Renewal application of Cantung. Companies such as Cantung use our proximity lands and resources, yet are not required to benefit our communities and businesses. In the new regulatory regime it is not irregular for a licensing body to stipulate a condition that the socio-economic beneficiaries in the NWT must be NWT communities. I strongly support the fact that there be a percentage of businesses and NWT local employees working at the Cantung Mine. Every effort must be extended to maximize our benefits from NWT resources. In the past, the previous owner of North American Tungsten was committed and in good faith began discussions with local communities and businesses but did not complete it. I am not in support of any businesses that do not follow their commitments and benefit our NWT residents- There must be a way to ensure that NWT resources benefit NWT residents. Cantung is in a position to benefit the NWT and they must. I thank you for this opportunity and should you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, e/imnMenicoche MLA, Nahendeh C.C.: Nahanni Butte First Nation Government of the Northwest Territories, P.O.

  • Interim Report 18 January, 2013
    Northwest Territories Electoral Boundaries Commission Interim Report 18 January, 2013 To the Residents of the Northwest Territories: In Canada, we live in a democracy where citizens elect their representatives. Representation is fundamental to electoral democracy. Citizens elect their representatives from geographic constituencies. The shapes of these constituencies – known as electoral districts or ridings – are determined when electoral boundaries are drawn. The Legislative Assembly appointed us to review the electoral boundaries of the Northwest Territories. This review is to ensure that all northerners are meaningfully represented in the Legislative Assembly. The Legislative Assembly asked the Commission to recommend how the electoral boundaries should be drawn if there are 18, 19, or 21 electoral districts. As part of the review of the electoral boundaries, we have prepared this Interim Report which contains a set of proposals for the electoral boundaries of the Northwest Territories. The Commission wants to know what northerners think about the electoral boundaries proposed in this Interim Report. There are multiple ways for northerners to comment on these proposals. Public Hearings: Speak at a public hearing between February 4th and March 13th in communities across the territory. Online: Submit comment on-line at www.nwtboundaries.ca Letters: Send a letter to the Commission (see page 28 for contact information). Your input is an important part of this process, and we look forward to hearing from you. Hon. Justice Shannon Smallwood
