Caitlin Cleveland

Membre de Kam Lake

Circonscription électorale de Kam Lake

L’honorable Caitlin Cleveland a été élue pour la première fois en 2019 en tant que députée de la 19e Assemblée dans la circonscription de Kam Lake; elle assume les fonctions de ministre de l’Éducation, de la Culture et de la Formation et de ministre de l’Industrie, du Tourisme et de l’Investissement depuis 2023, après avoir été élue par acclamation à la 20e Assemblée législative.

En plus d’avoir possédé et exploité une entreprise dans le Nord pendant plus de 20 ans, la ministre Cleveland a occupé divers rôles en communication et en politique dans les secteurs public et privé avant de se lancer en politique.

De 2019 à 2023, elle a présidé le Comité permanent des affaires sociales, réalisant ainsi son objectif de participer aux discussions et aux décisions concernant les programmes sociaux des Territoires du Nord-Ouest. Accomplissant un travail remarquable au sein du Comité, elle a notamment guidé le rigoureux examen des recommandations sur le logement aux TNO et des contributions qui y ont été apportées, et a participé aux efforts liés à la prévention du suicide, à l’amélioration de la prise en charge des enfants placés et au soutien des familles.

Dans le cadre de ses portefeuilles, la ministre Cleveland s’efforce d’aider les enfants à devenir des Ténois épanouis qui savent saisir les occasions qui s’offrent à eux et bâtissent des carrières fructueuses, contribuant à une économie en pleine croissance. Elle préconise la mise en place de nouvelles approches en matière de diversification sectorielle et d’innovation, et veille à ce que le Nord accueille à la fois des travailleurs étrangers qualifiés et attire des investissements dans les ressources en minéraux critiques du territoire. Elle est sans relâche en quête de solutions pour un accès efficace et équitable aux programmes et aux services, œuvrant pour une vision commune des TNO où l’on aide les résidents à vivre, travailler et s’épanouir à leur guise. 

La ministre Cleveland réside avec son mari et leurs trois enfants à Yellowknife, où elle vit depuis toujours.

Déclarations dans les débats

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. My question was: does the Minister feel that they will reach this year's goals? Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. My questions today are for the Minister of Finance in regard to the vendor complaint policy. The first thing I would like to know, though, has to do with the procurement review. I am wondering if the Minister of Finance can confirm if the Procurement Review Panel plans to release a draft of its report to the business community prior to finalizing that? Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. No. I think that is great news, what the Minister was just talking about with the Member for Great Slave in regard to the Arctic Research Foundation, and I think it is definitely worth exploring and continuing on down that road. I am very happy to hear about that. I am wondering, in that same vein, how many summer students and interns are funded within this area and within this division within the Department of Infrastructure. Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Your Standing Committee on Social Development is pleased to provide its report on the review of Bill 13, An Act to Amend the Interpretation Act, and commends it to the House.

Bill 13, An Act to Amend the Interpretation Act, received second reading in the Legislative Assembly and was referred to the Standing Committee on Social Development October 29, 2020. Bill 13 amends Interpretation Act to remove references to Mountain Standard Time and Daylight Savings Time and replaces them with a reference to one standard time. Bill 13 will allow the Commissioner in Executive...

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I am wondering if the Minister can confirm if the airport improvement fee is solely collected from the cost of tickets by air travellers or if there are other avenues for money to get into the airport improvement fee? Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I'll take that as a commitment to my second request for a commitment, which was to work with other departments to figure out which meeting technology we can use as a government. Thank you for that. My next question is in regard to Public Stores Revolving Fund. The Public Stores Revolving Fund deals with accounting forms, vital statistics, support documents, et cetera, that are used for different government departments, so it allows them to have a space, I believe, that they fund all these needs and then different departments can take it from there. My question...

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. One of the things that I'm wondering if it could be included in that is one of the things that I think a lot of us have noticed since April 1st is that we have used quite a few different virtual meeting softwares or virtual meeting technologies, and so I'm wondering if those numbers for virtual meeting software can also be broken out of that software and hardware number. Also, I'm wondering if I can get a commitment, as well, from the Minister to review the different licences for virtual meeting technology and maybe work with the GNWT departments and the...

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Given that people can't leave the territory this year and they would love to probably be able to camp every single weekend, if possible, is there a plan to offer an incentive to camp more often than not or an incentive to camp at all this summer for NWT residents? Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

If the bookings open May 1st to May 4th, I am wondering when the campgrounds intend to open.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 64)

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. No. I appreciate the Minister saying that. I definitely do not want there to be privacy concerns, and I don't want to deter anybody from reporting complaints because they do in fact offer opportunities for the government to maintain its procurement policies as living documents and to continue to make change. Even if it is identifying an industry type versus a specific person or company within an industry, I think that is a much better way of going about that. I am also wondering and I just want to confirm that the Minister is willing to also take back to her...
