Statement from Currie Dixon on the New Yukon Liberal Party Leader

“On behalf of my Yukon Party Caucus colleagues, I would like to extend my sincere congratulations to Mike Pemberton on his election as the new leader of the Yukon Liberal Party, and in the coming days, the Yukon’s 11th premier.

“Mr. Pemberton is a longtime Yukoner and businessman who I know will turn his full attention and experience to work for the Yukon.

“As well, thank you to Doris Bill for putting her name forward in the leadership race.

“Making the choice to enter politics is never an easy one. With increased public scrutiny and time away from family, the sacrifices are many, but our democracy requires that dedicated citizens answer the call to serve our communities.

“At the end of the day, we all have one goal – making the Yukon a better place to live, work, and play. Congratulations again to Premier-designate Mike Pemberton.”
