Residents of Watson Lake are rekindling a decades-long fight for a long-term care home in their community. The first step is to present a petition to the Yukon Legislative Assembly to convince Health Minister Tracy Anne McPhee to see the need first-hand.
“We have a strong team that is going to hold the government to account and bring the concerns of Yukoners to the floor of the house,” said Dixon.
The official Opposition leader, who is the MLA for Copperbelt North, is the critic for the Executive Council Office; Public Service Commission; Environment; the Yukon Liquor Corp., the Yukon Lottery Corp.; the Yukon Cannabis Corp.; and early learning and child care.
Scott Kent, who represents Copperbelt South, is the house leader, and will shadow Education; Energy, Mines, and Resources; and Highways and Public Works.
Brad Cathers, the MLA for Lake Laberge, is the deputy house leader and the critic for Health and Social Services; Justice; Finance; and Agriculture.
Unofficial results from Monday's election show that Yukoners in a majority of ridings were largely satisfied with what they had before the vote and yet the next legislative assembly will be very different.

Monday s Yukon election is bound to be interesting, if only because the outcome is still too difficult to predict there s been no clear front-runner through the campaign, nor has there been any central issue dominating debate and stirring passions.
In short, anything could happen from Sandy Silver s Liberals winning re-election for the first time in that party s history, to Currie Dixon returning the Yukon Party to government after a few years on the sidelines, to Kate White vaulting the NDP from third-party status to government.
