Nunavut, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories

Nunavut
Nunavut with its harsh arctic landscape is the place to go if you want to eat traditional native food like whale skin, either boiled or raw, sometimes dipped in soy sauce. You will be amazed by the natural beauty of the land and the friendliness of the people who, if you are lucky, may invite you into their homes to taste some of the best scallops and turbot caught fresh out of the sea that very day!

See the official website of Nunavut.

The Yukon
While in the Yukon, you may want to visit Whitehorse, so named because the Whitehorse rapids are said to resemble the mane of a white horse. Check out the Yukon Transportation Museum featuring early methods of transportation used by the Nation’s First Peoples, such as dogsleds, skin boats and snow shoes.

The Northwest Territories is often referred to as the land of plenty due to its thousands of lakes and thousands of miles of land; consider this - over one and a half million caribou roam the Territories! The land has been supporting the Inuit People for over nine thousand years. You might enjoy such traditional fare as bannock or caribou stew.

See the official website of the Northwest Territories and the official website of the Yukon.
