WHITEHORSE -

A re-elected Liberal government will have a full legislative agenda to address the ongoing priorities of Yukoners. Legislation introduced in the spring sitting, including a new modernized Workers’ Safety and Compensation Act that enhances worker safety and compensation systems in the territory, will be on the next legislative docket.  The Yukon Liberal platform lays out an ambitious legislation plan to keep Yukoners safe, address climate change and build our economy.

The Yukon Liberal Party believes that the agriculture sector is vital to the territory. We need to do more to ensure local food is available and that farmers are supported. That is why a re-elected Liberal government will continue to support our growing agriculture sector.

A re-elected Liberal government will focus on a new, flexible fieldhouse, exploring a varsity sports program and continuing to advance our bid to host the Canada Winter Games in 2027.

“When we took office in 2016, the Yukon was in an infrastructure deficit. We worked closely with First Nations and municipalities to identify priorities and maximized available federal funding to advance projects that met the needs of Yukon’s communities. A re-elected Liberal government will continue this collaborative approach to keep building resilient communities across the territory.”

- John Streicker, Liberal candidate for Mount Lorne-Southern Lakes

"We have identified approximately $25 million over five years for the design and construction of this new facility. It is important that we celebrate and protect the rich heritage and culture that shapes the Yukon and this investment will help us do that.”

Yukon Liberal Leader Sandy Silver

“We have a responsibility for the proper care of our important heritage and art collections so that future generations will continue to benefit from their legacy. We are pursuing a combined facility for both the heritage and arts collections which will result in efficiencies and provide safe, adequate storage for our broad range of collections.”

Jeanie McLean, Liberal candidate for Mountainview
