Circonscription électorale de Hay River Sud 

Biographie Vince McKay a été élu député de la circonscription de Hay River Sud à la 20e Assemblée législative des Territoires du Nord-Ouest.

Vince McKay est né le 17 septembre 1977 dans la ville pittoresque de Hay River. Sa carrière s’étend sur une période impressionnante de 26 ans au sein du gouvernement des Territoires du Nord-Ouest (GTNO). Il a commencé son parcours en tant qu’agent des services correctionnels, grimpant progressivement les échelons pour devenir un superviseur des services correctionnels respecté. Son sens du leadership lui a mérité le prestigieux poste d’administrateur adjoint, puis celui de directeur du Bureau des enquêtes et des normes (BEN).

Dans chacune de ses fonctions, il a fait preuve d’un engagement inébranlable envers la justice, l’équité et le bien-être de sa collectivité. Ses 30 années de service au sein du service d’incendie de Hay River témoignent de son dévouement envers la sécurité et le bien-être des résidents de Hay River. Il est par ailleurs propriétaire et exploitant de Westech Fire and Safety depuis 1999, ce qui prouve son sens des affaires et son engagement à respecter les normes de sécurité les plus strictes. Dans le domaine du devoir civique, Vince McKay a fait partie intégrante du conseil municipal de Hay River pendant 15 ans. Son mandat a été marqué par une attention soutenue au développement de la collectivité, une gouvernance réfléchie et un souci sincère du bien-être de ses concitoyens. Ses précieuses contributions au conseil municipal ont laissé une marque indélébile, lui valant le respect et l’admiration de ses collègues et de ses électeurs.

La famille de Vince McKay — son épouse, Barbara, et ses deux enfants — est au cœur de sa vie. Ensemble, ils forment un front uni qui a su relever les défis d’une vie consacrée au service public. Dans sa vie privée, Vince McKay trouve réconfort et joie dans une myriade de passe-temps. Féru de sport, on le trouve souvent sur la glace ou en train de parcourir les allées de golf, un club à la main. Adepte du grand air, il se passionne pour le camping, la pêche, la navigation de plaisance et le softball — des activités qui lui procurent un répit bien mérité, loin des exigences professionnelles.

I guess just to reply to her comment, I mean, our continued relationship is that MACA works closely with NWTAC on numerous programs and funding agreements and so on. So, like, the three meetings that are showing here are essentially a minimum at least but to the point of that sometimes hard to get together, and that's our goal, is to make sure that we maintain that. And then, like I said, we're always going to meet with them at some point, right. Like, it's not something that we're not going to do, being that we have a good relationship with them. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The community can do some of their own work on the landfill, obviously like any other community; however, like in my Minister's statement the other day, we have the hazardous waste project going on, which is collecting some of the hazardous waste and compiling it and, at some point, hauling it out. So, yeah, I guess right now a lot of it lies with the community for the maintenance of the landfill. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So the department is working with the Sahtu community governments. So some of the governments have community plans that are going far back as, let's say, November 2011, so there is work that obviously needs to be done and the department is working with and communicating with those communities to develop updated community plans. Thank you.
