Kam Lake[1][2] is a territorial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories, Canada.
It is one of seven districts that represent Yellowknife.[3]
A larger-than-usual property tax increase in 2014[4] saw the area re-zoned by the City of Yellowknife and some of the restrictions around residential building in the industrial area modified.[5]
