Mr. Speaker, Claims · 145 wordsit is a well-known fact that when someone visits the Yukon, they will come back.Unearned certainty In fact, they may never leave.Unearned certainty There are raw adventures, like the gruelling Arctic Ultra in 40 below, or the luxury of viewing northern lights from a fire-warmed cabin. We have it all, and we have it for anyone: hot springs, dog-sledding, kayaking, hiking, or paddling downriver to Dawson City to take in the show at Diamond Tooth Gerties after a soak in the spa. Sharing this extraordinary scenery, culture and community with the world is an important part of our local economy. Tourism represents close to 5% of the territory’s GDP, ¹and the industry is still growing. I am proud of the investments our government has made toward Yukon tourism, including funding for Josie’s Old Crow Adventures, alpine glamping, wellness on the land, the MacBride Museum and many more.² Thanks · 38 wordsOn this final day of National Tourism Week, led by the Tourism Industry Association of Canada, I salute and thank the operators, guides, entrepreneurs, artists and community leaders who make every visit to the Yukon an unforgettable experience.³Thanks
