On October 9, the Yukon Electoral District Boundaries Commission 2024 final report was tabled in the Yukon Legislative Assembly. This report outlines key recommendations on proposed boundaries to ensure effective representation in the Yukon Legislative Assembly.
Proposed changes would result in an increase of electoral districts, from the current 19 to 21. These proposed changes are designed to improve representation across the Yukon, accounting for demographic shifts while maintaining the legal principle of voter parity.
Thank you to all Yukoners who shared their thoughts and voices on the Yukon’s electoral boundaries. As the Yukon’s population grows, our government is committed to ensuring the electoral system continues to provide effective representation. I look forward to diving deeper into these recommendations as we continue to build a strong, resilient Yukon.
