A plebiscite on the equal representation of men and women in the Nunavut Legislative Assembly was held on 26 May 1997 in the area of the Northwest Territories that was to be split off into the new territory of Nunavut. The proposal was rejected by 57.37% of voters, with a voter turnout of just 38.9%.
