Join us for a Trip Advisor Excellence Award winning tour!
Members of NWT's Legislative Assembly are elected from 19 electoral districts located across the Territory and come together at the Legislative Assembly building in Yellowknife to make decisions on behalf of NWT's residents.
During your hour-long guided tour provided by Public Affairs you will explore one of the most unique legislatures in Canada and learn about the consensus system of government that sets the Northwest Territories apart from other Canadian provinces. (Note: Nunavut also has a system of consensus government.)
Tours begin in the Great Hall, located just off of the main entrance. Please let the security guard on duty know that you are here for a tour.
The Legislative Assembly is fully wheelchair-accessible and has public washrooms.
