Being the first woman from the NWT to play varsity basketball at the Canadian university level is not, in and of itself, an inclusion freebie in the absence of any actual awards or distinctions that would get her past  the normal way — "first woman, LGBT, person of colour, person from this particular place as opposed to that one, etc., ever to do this otherwise not inherently notable thing" is not an instant free pass to greater notability than everybody else who's doing that same non-notable thing. And, for that matter, one of the sources here states that she's ''one'' of the first varsity athletes from the NWT, ''not'' that she's the trailblazing first-ever — which is even ''less'' of a valid notability claim. But the sourcing, which consists of one article in the local newspaper of where her university is, one article in the local CBC North bureau covering her hometown (which is ''not'' the same thing as the CBC's ''national'' news division) and an internet radio stream which counts for all of exactly nothing toward ever establishing the notability of anybody, is not strong enough to pass . People do not automatically get into Wikipedia just because they've gotten a bit of "local girl does stuff" human interest coverage in their own local media, but nothing here demonstrates a reason why she could be considered a notable athlete. Creator's username also suggests a possible |conflict of interest
