For anyone who has been to the Yukon Territory and gazed upon its majesty, King Charles can get fucked. That province may as well be a wild horse. Even Alaska is a giant let-down by comparison.
Born and raised here. It's nice if you love the outdoors and nature, but if that's not a big draw for you then our CoL is absolutely insane for such a boring and small place. Paying 2760 per month for a run down shithole 3 bedroom in a shitty neighbourhood fucking sucks and unless you have a degree, you have to work some kind of labour job to make decent money. Most of those are either camp jobs or require a vehicle cause they're out of range of the public transit.
It is a beautiful place and our summers are short but amazing, but like I said it's awfully boring if you're not an outdoorsy person. The winter is also long, dark, and very cold.
Why did you call it a territory, then call Yukon a province?
Brain fart, I guess.
Itโs a territory because it doesnโt have the same rights as a province.
