The completion of the plant and its start of opera- tions is the culmination of a joint municipal-provin- cial-federal government that began construction in 2017. A 30-year agreement signed by SaskWater and the City of Melville in July 2016 called for the Crown Corporation to operate the existing water plant and construct the new water supply system.

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.

The seemingly healthy 25-year- old went to bed at her home in Spy Hill on March 3 but didn’t wake up the next morning. Her mother, Michelle Fredbjornson, says the doc- tors think Jacey passed away from an adult ver- sion of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) known as Sudden Adult Death Syn- drome (SADS) or Sudden Unexplained Nocturnal Death Syndrome (SUNDS) when it happens in adults while they sleep. While the death left a sud- den, unexpected and gap- ing hole in the lives of those Jacey Lee loved horses, barrel racing and who knew Jacey, Fredbjorn- hunting, among many other things. son says Jacey’s spirit and love of life was so strong that something needed to be done to commemorate her. The 25-year-old was deeply passionate about many things—music, fam- ily, friends, hunting, wood- working—but her love of barrel racing, horse riding, rodeo, and rounding up cattle were so strong that she lived and breathed the cowgirl life. For that reason, the Jacey Lee Memorial Race will be held in Spy Hill on Satur- day, August 28 in memory of Jacey.
