Dale Eftoda is a Canadian politician, who represented the electoral district of Riverdale North in the Yukon Legislative Assembly from 2000 to 2002.[1] He was a member of the Yukon Liberal Party caucus.

Eftoda became the first openly gay member of the Yukon legislature when he introduced his partner in the assembly on November 29, 2001.[2] Prior to his election to the legislature, he was executive director of the AIDS Yukon Alliance, an HIV/AIDS education and service agency in Whitehorse.[3]

He was defeated by Ted Staffen of the Yukon Party in the 2002 territorial election, in which every incumbent Liberal MLA except party leader Pat Duncan lost their seats.
