It appears old enmities die hard, even in the face of a minority government and a supposedly renewed commitment for all of the Yukon’s political parties to behave and work together.
On Monday, Premier Sandy Silver sent out a terse statement to the Star saying he had talked with Yukon Party Leader Currie Dixon.
“This afternoon I met with Yukon Party Leader Currie Dixon,” the statement said.
“We had a brief discussion about the upcoming sitting of the legislative assembly, including the length of the sitting and special committees of the assembly,” Silver said.
“Yukoners clearly called for a more collaborative government in this month’s election. My Yukon Liberal team and I are committed to working with all parties to deliver the best possible services and programs to Yukoners.
