An important member of the Yukon conservative political scene passes away
One of the founding members of the Yukon conservative movement has passed away.
Party officials released a statement today on Al Falle, a longtime politician in the territory.
He won a second term for the riding known as Hootalinqua in 1982, before retiring in 1985.
Longtime Yukon Party MLA Brad Cathers says “Al has been a friend of mine for decades, and provided helpful advice to me on many
occasions.
Al was one of the first people to encourage me to run for office, and he stood beside me throughout the ups and downs of my time as MLA for Lake Laberge, helping out in every election campaign.
He was passionate about the Yukon and Yukon politics.
