Yukon’s newest premier promised to stay the course on Liberal government policies on Saturday as he formally took the reins of both his party and territory.
Ranj Pillai, a member of the territory’s Legislature since 2016, was officially sworn in as Yukon’s 10th premier at an afternoon ceremony in the territorial capital of Whitehorse. The ceremony—in which his new cabinet members were also sworn in—saw him officially succeed Sandy Silver in the role.
