The 6th Northwest Territories Legislative Council was the 13th assembly of the territorial government. It took place from 1967 and was dissolved in 1970. This was the first council that took place specifically in the capital city of Yellowknife.
This session was the first time an Inuk (Simonie Michael) was elected to the council, though Abe Okpik had been appointed the previous session. It also marks the first participation by a First Nations member of the council (John Tetlichi, appointed).
