May 26, 2026
Territorial and Indigenous leaders in the NWT are calling on the federal government to support Indigenous procurement and local capacity building to help keep defence and major project spending in the North.
Members of the NWT Council of Leaders met in Yellowknife last week to discuss shared priorities and advocate for support from the federal government.
That included discussions about anticipated defence spending and major projects in the territory.
