Breaking Ice
The Northern Region of Canada is an unbelievable place. A place that exists outside of the regular day to day understanding of life for most people. It is a place of extremes, from weather, remoteness, beauty, logistics, to costs, community and adventure. This kind of environment does not create soft people. Living & working in the North has given me the great pleasure of meeting and getting to know these extraordinary individuals. On Breaking Ice we will sit down and talk unfiltered with people about their lives, business and passions.

Frank Pope - Norman Wells Municipal Election, Candidate for Mayor
I want to introduce Frank Pope. Frank is the incumbent mayor and has been a part of local politics for many years now. In this episode, we discuss why he seeks reelection this time and how he feels his skills are best suited for the job in the current situation. I enjoyed the opportunity to sit with Frank today and discuss the issues facing Norman Wells more intensely. This contrasts our last episode together, where we delve into his life and how he found the Sahtú from Scotland. If you're interested in that episode, it is on YouTube or any podcast app. I hope these episodes covering the municipal election will help you be more informed about who you want to support. Thank you to the candidates who participated and the residents who generously lent their time to view these episodes.
