The 19th Northwest Territories Legislative Assembly in Canada was established by the results of the 2019 Northwest Territories general election on October 1, 2019.
In the 2019 election, 9 of the 19 MLAs elected were women, a record in NWT and, proportionally, in all of Canada. Previously, the most sitting women MLAs was three. On July 27, 2021, following the resignation of Jackson Lafferty and the subsequent by-election victory of Jane Weyallon Armstrong, the Legislature had 10 women to 9 men, and became the first jurisdiction in Canada to have a majority of women legislators.
