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.

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.

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 1018-20(1): Aspen Apartments Project Update
Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I last asked about the Aspen Apartment in the last sitting, in October, and when residents would be moving in. I was told hopefully before Christmas however that's not come to pass. Can I please get an update from the Minister from Housing NWT when residents will be situated in Aspen. Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair, for your indulgence. Can the Minister clarify if this is a good place to ask about the community safe safety officer pilot? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I would echo my colleague's comments on that particular program. It is one I also refer my constituents to. It's a very excellent program, and I look forward to finding a supp in the future on it.

This is more of a housekeeping item than anything else, Mr. Chair, and I will cede my time after I point it out. But YWCA of Yellowknife has not been YWCA of Yellowknife since 2017. Can we update it to their proper name? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Yeah, so can the Minister speak to whether or not there's any evaluation, performance monitoring of the fund, any policy work that's happening? Any -- like, this is -- beyond just saying, you know, iGaming might come in and fix everything, which I have some general doubts about, what other work are we looking to do on this fund? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I know the Minister and his staff have briefed the Standing Committee on Government Operations on what I am about to ask, but I think some of it should be out in the public and so I will start with is the increased funding plan for sport and recreation expected to be a one-time adjustment, or do we expect this to be a multi-year trend to support sport and recreation; can the Minister and his staff paint the picture of what they expect to do with PASR? Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Would he be willing to share specifics with committee? Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And considering the target in the later part of the fiscal year, is it, then, expected to be an LP before the end of this Assembly? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I will always enjoy more detail. Thank you.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. In your estimates, there is $300,000 identified to develop a legislative initiative to broaden regulated gaming activities in the NWT but no positions created. So my question to the Minister is what this funding is to be used for and what is unique about this work that needs the funding but no position. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 20th Assembly, 1st Session (day 79)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And, yeah, no, I can appreciate that and I don't want to get into the weeds of something that's not yet before us. But I appreciate the Minister is interested in tracking data over time and success of any actions such as evictions over time. So more of a comment, and I am happy to follow up with the Minister later. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
