Statement from Premier Pillai on Orthodox New Year celebrations

Premier Pillai has issued the following statement:

"Today we join Orthodox Christian communities around the world, across Canada and here in the Yukon in celebrating the Orthodox New Year.

“The Orthodox New Year is a time for reflection, renewal and hope for the year ahead. It is an opportunity for families and communities to come together in celebration, honouring the values of faith, love and unity.

“As we welcome this new beginning, let us reaffirm our commitment to understanding and respect among all people, regardless of background or belief. I hope this new year brings health, happiness and prosperity to everyone.  

“I extend my warmest wishes to all those marking this special occasion, as we continue to work together toward building a stronger, more inclusive Yukon for all.

“Happy and prosperous Orthodox New Year to all!”
