Don Roberts is a former Canadian politician who represented the electoral district of Porter Creek North in the Yukon Legislative Assembly from 2000 to 2002.
He was elected as a member of the Yukon Liberal Party in the 2000 election. He served as Minister for Health.[1][2] In 2002, he was one of three MLAs, along with Mike McLarnon and Wayne Jim, who resigned from the Liberal Party caucus. The resignations were designed to protest the leadership of Pat Duncan,[3] sending Duncan's government into a minority. He did not run in the resulting 2002 election.
