Kate Reid

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.

Committee Motion 45-20(1): Tabled Document 193-20(1): 2025-2026 Capital Estimates – Infrastructure - Deferral of Department, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And arguably, when we talk about all of our assets that put out greenhouse gases, be they vehicles or buildings or whatever the case may be, I guess how one boat in Inuvik is not going to break the GHG bank, so to speak, but to see that there's no -- no impact of just any asset, I don't know if I agree with that. Maybe the Minister could speak to that. Thank you.

Committee Motion 43-20(1): Tabled Document 193-20(1): 2025-2026 Capital Estimates – Municipal and Community Affairs – Deferral of Department, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So, Mr. Chair, here on the education item, there is a high school boiler replacement for Ecole Sir John Franklin, and I was -- I've been talking to the Minister, and I think most Yellowknife MLAs are quite aware of all of the challenges that Yellowknife schools are facing. So could the Minister provide a substantiation for this project to start, and we'll go from there. Thank you.

Committee Motion 45-20(1): Tabled Document 193-20(1): 2025-2026 Capital Estimates – Infrastructure - Deferral of Department, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So I'm going to ask a question about a random one of these assets and kind of dive deeper than just one singular asset, but let's just talk about the boat, the replacement boat for field work in Inuvik. Can I please get a substantiation for that item? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Question 366-20(1): Government of the Northwest Territories Public Service Employee Services
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Again, a little bit of tentative good news there. Unfortunately, I was let down by the 2024 Employee Satisfaction Action Plan that was released with the 2023 survey results. It's vague. It doesn't speak deeply to tangible improvements probably because it start with "we need to build a plan." So how does the Minister wish to address employee morale based on the eight actions in that plan but also beyond them? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Committee Motion 44-20(1): Tabled Document 193-20(1): 2025-2026 Capital Estimates – Education, Culture and Employment – Deferral of Department, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Would the Minister be willing to follow up in writing with committee on that? Thank you.

Question 366-20(1): Government of the Northwest Territories Public Service Employee Services
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my questions are also for the Minister of Finance. I am eagerly awaiting the 2023-2024 Public Service Annual Report, which is a really nerdy thing to say. Can the Minister sneak peek a preview and tell us if the exits by reason shows an increase or decrease in resignations? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. With regards to the Slave Geological Province corridor planning and environmental assessment, could the Minister please give us a substantiation for that? Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank, Mr. Chair. So I can appreciate that answer, but if we haven't decided by the time that we're in this House I just -- I don't understand why we would assign money to a hope. Wouldn't we want to come back the next year? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Committee Motion 44-20(1): Tabled Document 193-20(1): 2025-2026 Capital Estimates – Education, Culture and Employment – Deferral of Department, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you. And I assume this is across the whole of the GNWT, but could the Minister please tell me what communities, what facilities, this will apply to in this go-around for this capital asset retrofit fund? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 33)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So just a really basic question to start. The capital asset retrofit fund, there's two lines here, TCA and DM. Could the Minister explain to me what the difference is, please. Thank you.
