Timeline

1945

James Wah-Shee (born 1945 as James Washie) is Tłı̨chǫ elder and a former territorial level politician from Northwest Territories, Canada.

1970

In the 1970s Wah-Shee became President of the Dene Nation.

1975

Wah-Shee ran for a seat in the Northwest Territories Legislature in the 1975 Northwest Territories general election.

His candidacy caused controversy at the time, because he ran for election against the wishes of the Dene chiefs.

In response to his running for office he was deposed as President.

George Erasmus, who was leading a boycott on Dene running in the territorial elections at the time, replaced him.

Wah-Shee was elected, winning the Great Slave electoral district.

After being elected to his first term, Wah-Shee quickly resigned with fellow Member George Barnaby over the lack of attention to Dene issues being focused on in the Legislature.

1987
