Revised - City councillor Samson Hartland says he wants to be the city’s next mayor, becoming the second person to do so.
Voters will decide on a new mayor and council on Oct. 21. Mayor Dan Curtis plans to run as the Liberal candidate in Whitehorse Centre in
the pending territorial election, and, even if he’s not successful, will not run for re-election as mayor.
Hartland, 42, is a married father of three children.
He has served three terms as a councillor, while also serving as the executive director of the Yukon Chamber of Mines for the last seven
years.
