Residents of Nahendeh can choose between Sharon Allen, Josh Campbell, Mavis Cli-Michaud, Hillary Deneron, Shane Thompson or Leslie Wright in the 2023 territorial election.
We’ve interviewed four of the six candidates, giving each person 15 minutes to discuss their platform, the priorities they’d like to focus on if elected, and the qualities that they believe help to mark them out as a candidate.
Longtime northern educator and advocate Sharon Allen says she will apply Dene principles to achieve progress in consensus government at the next assembly. Read Sharon’s interview
