Population and Administration According to 1997 estimates, the Northwest Territories had 40,309 inhabitants, but the creation of Nunavut in 1999 has severely decreased that figure to 42,944 (2005 estimate). Over both territories the overall population density was gauged at only about 1 person for every 59 sq km (1 per 23 sq mi) in 1997. In 2005 estimate, that figure stood at about 0.036 people per sq km (0.09 people per sq mi). The capital and largest city is Yellowknife (population, 2001, 16,541) located in the south-central part of the territory. Over half the population of the Northwest Territories is located in the city; the remainder is spread across 33 settlements throughout the region, including Hay River (population, 2001, 3,510); Inuvik (population, 2001, 2,894); and Fort Smith (population, 2001, 2,185).

English is the mother tongue of over half of the population; only about 2 per cent have French as their first language. A.
Extractions: The political process of Canada's Northwest Territories is as unique as its landscape. There are no political parties. Instead, candidates are elected by the community based largely on family ties and personality. The N.W.T has seen dramatic changes from its days of "benign neglect" before 1950 to the evolution of its current consensus-style of government. Deeply rooted in Native tradition, the Northwest Territories' distinct form of government has been described as the most interesting parliamentary system in the world.

Northwest Territories: Voting in Canada's North In 1985, 24 Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) representing 24 constituencies are voted in.

Extractions: PDF Accessibility Notice The transfer of province-like responsibilities to the northern governments has been a longstanding Government of Canada policy objective which is also shared by the territorial governments. Since the 1970s, the federal government has been transferring its decision-making powers to northern governments. This means greater local control and accountability by northerners for decisions central to the future of the territories. Enabling the territories to become more self-sufficient and prosperous and to play a stronger role in the Canadian federation is central to the Government of Canada's vision for the North. Devolution is a key element for realizing these objectives. In the past 30 years, the transfer of responsibilities to the Government of Northwest Territories has taken place for several programs and services including the delivery of health care, social services, education, administration of airports and forestry management.
