From 1900 to 1978, the elected legislative body in the Yukon was the Yukon Territorial Council, a ten-member body which did not act as the primary government, but was a non-partisan advisory body to the
Commissioner of the Yukon . Following the passage of the Yukon Elections Act in 1977, the Territorial Council was replaced by the current Legislative Assembly, which was elected for the first time in the 1978 election.The Yukon Legislative Assembly is the only legislature in Canada's territories which is organized along
political party lines. InNunavut and theNorthwest Territories , the legislative assemblies are instead elected on a non-partisanconsensus government model.Current members
