As such, it operates with autonomy and independence from Cabinet direction and the public service at large. This independence is critical to the mandate of the Legislative Assembly to scrutinize and approve legislation and budgets proposed by the Cabinet, monitor and critique the activities and performance of the executive branch and provide a forum for the exercise of responsible parliamentary democracy in the Northwest Territories.
This position is located in the City of Yellowknife, a thriving multicultural community of more than 20,000 located on the shores of Great Slave Lake. You'll find all the amenities of a big city, without the traffic. There are year‑round outdoor (and indoor) activities, and a wide variety of individual and team sports leagues.
