LILA FRASER ERASMUS: Tu Nedhé-Wiilideh: Disclosing premier and vote

After Nahendeh incumbent Shane Thompson announced Thursday that, if re-elected, he would support Jackson Lafferty, MLA for Monfwi, as premier, NNSL media sent the following question by email to all 58 candidates in the NWT election:

"Currently, MLAs choose premier and cabinet in a secret ballot vote. Some Northerners have expressed reservations about this practice, calling it undemocratic.

If elected, will you publicly disclose who you will vote for to be premier and on cabinet before the vote in the legislative assembly?"

 

Lila Fraser Erasmus - Tu Nedhé-Wiilideh

ANSWER: "I am sorry but I am not in a position to disclose that information at this time."
