The event offered a rare opportunity to view one of the two original maps prepared by Chief Kohklux and his wives. Drawn in 1869 by the Tlingit Chief Kaalaxch’ (Kohklux), these rare maps are examples of early Indigenous map making in the North. The Kohklux maps are especially important to CAFN because they are the oldest maps of dákeyi (our traditional territory). During the event, we wanted to share the story behind the maps, as well as family and community stories related to the trade.

The provision of high quality and affordable communications links within the Yukon and between the Yukon and other reg ions is essential if we are to survive in an information-based society. The Government has responded to Yukoners demands for better communi­ cations services by developing a communications policy specifically tailored to the needs of the territory. We have a rather special situation here in the Yukon where great distances exist between sparsely populated areas making distance com­ munications one of our greatest chall enges. We have therefore made accessibility, reliability and affordability the by-words of our policy. We heard from many Yukoners throughout the policy development process. The results clearly indicate that Yukoners want their government to play a more active ro le in communications matters. A major overriding concern is the need for a strong, effective voice in federal communications policy-making and regulatory forums. This is not surprising when you realize that it is these forums that decide the costs for and level of communications services in the Yukon. Another major concern was the inequity in service levels throughout the ter­ ritory, particularly in respect to the CBC television and radio signals. Under the new policy, the Government will replace the mountaintop rebroadcast television trans­ lator equipment with satellite receive antenna.

    John Maissan 219 Falcon Drive, Whitehorse Yukon, Y1A 0A2 Phone: (867) 668-7774 Email: [email protected] IN THE MATTER OF YUKON ENERGY CORPORATION – VICTORIA GOLD CORPORATION GROUP POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT Before the YUKON UTILITIES BOARD November - December, 2017 REPLY ARGUMENT OF JOHN MAISSAN Reply Argument introductory comments In this written reply argument, the Yukon Utilities Board is referred to as the “Board”, Yukon Energy Corporation as Yukon Energy, and Victoria Gold Corporation Group as VGC. Interrogatory responses (IR) will be referenced by their identifying numbers. In this reply argument I address issues discussed in the Utilities Consumers Group (UCG) and Yukon Energy final arguments which I feel need some additional comment. My silence on issues not addresses is not to be interpreted as agreement with, or disagreement with, the stated positions. I leave these matters to the Board to address based on all the information on the record. I remain of the view that it is appropriate for Yukon Energy to be providing power service to VGC through the YIS. UCG Final Argument matters 1. No Cost of Service (COS) study UCG notes in some detail the concerns that it has with the absence of a Board accepted COS study. This should be of concern to all parties including the Board. I would like to see the Board take whatever steps it considers necessary to rectify this situation as it affects not just this PPA but also other Yukon Energy and ATCO Electric Yukon matters that come before the Board. 2. Potential cost impacts on other ratepayers UCG contends that there are risks and costs that potentially affect all ratepayers that have not been fully or properly quantified by Yukon Energy.

  • Klondike Highway Road Log
    Klondike Highway Road Log This 717 km/445 mile road, which is mostly paved, connects Skagway Alaska and Dawson City Yukon , heart of the Klondike. Beginning at Skagway, the road climbs for 14 miles/22.5 km to the 3,292 foot/1003 m summit near the Alaska/Canada border. Between Skagway and the border the road roughly parallels the old White Pass Trail, an alternate to the Chilkoot Trail which ultimately proved more popular as it was the shorter of the two climbs. The only population center along the 114 miles/183 km of connecting routes between Skagway and Whitehorse is the small community of Carcross. At present, there are no services between Skagway and Carcross. The mileage markers along the way indicate the distance from Skagway.

    SUPREME COURT OF YUKON Citation: Estate of Buyck, 2015 YKSC 23 Date: 20150608 S.C. No. 14-P0034 Registry: Whitehorse IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF ALICE MAY BUYCK, DECEASED Before: Mr. Justice R.S. Veale Appearances: Breagh D. Dabbs Counsel for the Estate of Alice May Buyck Claire E. Anderson Counsel for the First Nation of Na-Cho Nyak Dun REASONS FOR JUDGMENT INTRODUCTION [1] The Estate of Alice May Buyck applies for a declaration that the First Nation of Na-Cho Nyak Dun (“Na-Cho Nyak Dun”) does not have a valid claim to Lots 11, 12, 13 and 14, Mayo, Yukon Territory, (the “Lots”), which are registered in the name of Alice Buyck. [2] Na-Cho Nyak Dun claims that the Lots should be transferred to the First Nation pursuant to a verbal agreement with Wilmont Wesley Buyck (“Wes Buyck”) and Alice Buyck whereby Na-Cho Nyak Dun agreed to construct a house on the Lots and grant a life estate to the Buycks in the Lots and the right to occupy the house in return for a transfer of the title to the Lots to Na-Cho Nyak Dun. Page: 2 FACTS [3] Alice Buyck was a citizen of Na-Cho Nyak Dun. She lived in a common-law relationship with Wes Buyck who was not a citizen of Na-Cho Nyak Dun. [4] In 1964, Wes Buyck purchased the Lots and buildings. The Certificate of Title records Wesley Buyck as the registered owner. [5] The former Mining Recorders office was located on the Lots but it was torn down leaving only a detached garage, which is still on the Lots.
