New KIA president applauded

Kugluktuk MLA Joe Allen Evyagotailak congratulated former MLA Donald Havioyak on winning the presidency of the Kitikmeot Inuit Association.

“Mr. Havioyak and I have known each other for a very long time. I look forward to working with him for the benefit of the constituents,” Evyagotailak said.

Evyagotailak also recognized “the years of good work” done by former KIA president Charlie Evalik.

“Mr. Evalik served three straight terms as President and in that time he negotiated benefit agreements with several different mining companies. His experience and leadership were appreciated,” Evyagotailak said.
