  • Home of the Klondike Gold Flush
    This article appears in print in the October 2020 issue of Maclean’s magazine with the headline, “The Klondike gold flush.” CANADA The home of the Klondike gold flush After a judge forced historic Dawson City to fix its raw-sewage problem, the never-ending quest to build a system that works— and doesn't bankrupt the place—has even Yukon's premier saying 'WTF' By Jason Markusoff September 10, 2020 Dawson City, by the Yukon and Klondike rivers, has struggled to build a proper wastewater plant (Agnesstreet/iStock) For decades, Dawson City was notorious among Canada’s poorest performers on sewage treatment. Like Victoria and some East Coast cities, the historic Yukon town pumped raw sewage into the nearest major water body. A federal search warrant and raid in 2000 found that tested water, screened only for big “lumps” before hitting the Yukon River, was potentially toxic to fish. The town pleaded guilty to a subsequent Fisheries Act charge, for which the fine was up to $1 million. Heino Lilles, the Yukon territorial chief justice, decided against penalizing the town by forcing it to cut a big cheque. Instead, he ordered Dawson to build a proper wastewater plant, the sort federal authorities had long urged, and the town itself had studied. A substantial fine, Lilles wrote in his decision, might “reduce its ability to construct the sewage treatment plant, something that would be contrary to the public interest.” That nifty bit of sentencing came down in 2003. Little did the justice know had he effectively sentenced Dawson City to a multi-decade, multi-million-dollar-and-always-rising fiasco of a project, which now has a targeted fix date of 2026, nearly a generation after Lilles thought he’d devised a tidy solution that benefitted all parties, including the river’s Arctic grayling and chinook salmon.
