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.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Nothing further.

Question 354-20(1): Aurora College Site Selection

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Can specifically the scientific reports be made publicly available? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question 354-20(1): Aurora College Site Selection
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, for the opportunity to ask a second round of questions to the Minister of ECE. Will the Minister work with the board, the college board, to conduct a robust public consultation process for site selection? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question 349-20(1): Aurora College Location
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thanks, Mr. Speaker. I'll reiterate my question perhaps in a different way. If the environmental site assessment and all of the technical work shows that there is contamination and remediation needed on the site, will ECE terminate the MOU? Thank you.

Question 349-20(1): Aurora College Location
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. As we are in the capital budget process, we're all aware that there is no new money for a new Yellowknife polytech campus. So can the Minister please explain why the issue of locating a campus on Tin Can Hill has been silent after much fanfare in 2023? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And thank you to the Minister for that clarification; I greatly appreciate it. I don't have any further questions.

Member’s Statement 367-20(1): Aurora College Location
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, Yellowknifers are passionate about their beloved multi-use green space park, Tin Can Hill. It is a favoured destination for fat bikes, dog walks, sled rides, and local photo shoots, just to name a few activities throughout all the seasons.

As Tin Can Hill is in my riding, one of the first conversations I had after Cabinet was selected was with the Minister of ECE. I asked the Minister about plans for the site by the Aurora College transformation project to seek clarity on what the situation was, what was coming, as it was not clear to me or the public at...

Committee Motion 41-20(1): Tabled Document 193-20(1): 2025-2026 Capital Estimates – Finance – Deferral of Department, Carried
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So I note that the project here listed is a washroom accessibility upgrade for the Yellowknife courthouse. Could the Minister, please, provide a substantiation for this project. Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And so I know that in the last Assembly there was a great deal of interest from the Members around how we make decisions and specifically how Cabinet makes decisions on various pieces of information before them, be it decision instruments, be it financial decisions. And so part of that conversation was climate change consideration so I'm just asking I guess, do climate change considerations occur in the substantiations of these projects? Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 32)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Sorry, I'm just scrolling furiously and possibly not getting somewhere where I want to get to fast enough. However could I get a substantiation for the technology service centre infrastructure ever greening, please. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
