    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.

  • Yellowknife Education Forum Wednesday, September 25, 2019
    YELLOWKNIFE EDUCATION FORUM WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2019 ÉCOLE ST. PATRICK HIGH SCHOOL QUESTIONS YELLOWKNIFE MLA CANDIDATES Election Forum Questions 1. Trades as a path Trades are a critical part of the NWT industry, with many students developing an interest in this career path through the program offerings in our schools. Whether or not they receive a high school diploma, apprentices must pass an academic exam as part of their entrance to trades. Trades in the NWT are affected by many factors, including Aurora College, the possibility of a polytechnic university, the safety and fair treatment of young apprentices, and incentives for employers to take on apprentices and tradespeople. How do you plan to build on the foundations that we have, and remove barriers to our youth becoming part of the trades’ workforce? 2. Education Reform In the closing days of the 18th Assembly the GNWT Minister of Education called for the need of a reform of our Educational System. A recent CBC article stated “In the 2016-17 school year, only eight per cent of students enrolled in Grade 9 in small communities achieved acceptable standards in standardized math tests. In regional centres, 41.2 per cent of students were at an acceptable level. In English language arts, 17.7 per cent of Grade 9 students in small communities were at an acceptable level, while in regional centres 53 per cent were.” What do you believe needs to be done so that this new Educational Reform actually produces the positive results we all want when previous Education Reforms failed to meaningful produce positive results? 3.
