Députée de Great Slave

Kate Reid a été élue députée de la circonscription de Great Slave à la 20e Assemblée législative des Territoires du Nord-Ouest.

Mme Reid est née à Oshawa (Ontario) en 1981 et habite Yellowknife depuis 1989. Elle est titulaire d’un baccalauréat en journalisme de l’Université métropolitaine de Toronto (2003) et d’une maîtrise en sciences de l’information de l’Université de Toronto (2009).

À la fin de sa maîtrise, elle a rejoint les Archives des TNO, où elle a travaillé près de dix ans. C’est là qu’a germé sa passion pour la préservation et le partage des histoires qui peignent le portrait de notre territoire et de son gouvernement. En 2018, Mme Reid a pris un poste au ministère de l’Environnement et des Ressources naturelles et, dans le cadre de ses fonctions, elle s’est concentrée sur les questions de conservation et de développement durable dans les domaines législatif et politique, et ce, jusqu’à son élection comme députée.

Mme Reid a été présidente de la YWCA des TNO de 2021 à 2023 et de la section locale 40 du Syndicat des travailleurs du Nord en 2019 et de 2021 à 2023. Son leadership s’étend au domaine culturel, Kate Reid ayant été directrice de Folk on the Rocks, le festival de musique bien-aimé de Yellowknife, qui existe depuis longtemps. En outre, elle a contribué à des événements communautaires tels que NWT Pride, Yellowknife Pride et l’ancien spectacle d’art, Burn on the Bay.

En dehors de sa vie professionnelle, Kate Reid est mariée et trouve réconfort et inspiration dans toute une gamme de passe-temps; elle affectionne particulièrement la musique, l’art, le burlesque, le drag, le cinéma, l’haltérophilie et les voyages.

Question 725-20(1): Northwest Territories Nominee Program
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 60)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I don't know if I heard an answer there so I'll put it in a different way. Is there contemplation in the redesign that will give affordances to the fact that your application, if you do not -- if you're not successful on the NTNP application, you have to then extend your work permit. This is creating a cycle of gap and anxiety for people. Will that begin to become addressed? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question 725-20(1): Northwest Territories Nominee Program
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 60)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And my questions are also for the Minister of ECE. I don't want to preclude conversations she will have in Ottawa, but when can constituents expect more information of a redesigned -- equitably designed NTNP program intake for 2026 applications? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And more of a brief comment, I certainly hope that the Minister does bring it back to us; however, I think it's also a great dataset to wrap up when she's asking for money for nation building infrastructure projects. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So would the Minister characterize the overages as all being similar since 2022 as the reason to why we would be coming back to the supps? Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

No, thank you, Mr. Chair. I think the Minister has predicted my questions.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

Yeah, no, thank you, Mr. Chair. And that's fair if the Minister doesn't have that amount of detail with us right now. I'm just curious if it's a one-time cost but there's going to be a consistent need, is there any sort of planning going on to address that? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Bill 26: An Act to Amend the Public Service Act, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think what we can all agree on is that the current Public Service Act is a mess. What we do not agree on is the road to fix it.

Nurses have described longstanding internal union governance issues. I believe those concerns to be real. They deserve a solution and to be supported as they find that solution for themselves and, crucially, they need to drive that change. They need to organize.

I believe that the Member for Yellowknife North saw this problem and wants to try her level best to address it; however, what truly needs to happen is something she is restricted from...

Question 709-20(1): Pay Increases for Daycare Providers
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. That's good news. But is that the case for all of the providers, was it missing information? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question 704-20(1): Immigration Supports
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 59)

Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thank you to the Minister for that. Will she be speaking to her federal counterpart about the need for newcomer services specifically, not just permanent residents. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
