Yukon Yukon Government: Yukon Government Services and Intergovernment: Yukon Meet Robert W. Service the Bard of Canada, Poet Laureate of the Yukon. Read hisThe Cremation of Sam McGee to find out how cold it can really get sometimes. The record for coldest spot in Canada is held by a now-abandoned little outpost called Skag. It was 63 degrees Celcius 50 years ago around the first week of February - so cold that vapour trails from one's breat hung in the air straight out from a person for 5 or 6 minutes. While you are exploring you'll want to find out about the Gold Rush in the Klondike. This time in the Yukon's history is immortalized by Robert Service in his poems. The Yukon News can keep you current with what is happening now. Unsorted Links
