The YUKON Magazine
A companion to the award-winning The Yukon Magazine, this podcast shares the same mission: to explore and celebrate life in the Yukon. Some episodes expand on stories from the magazine. Others are original, audacious, audio-rich stories you won’t hear, or read, anywhere else. Each series coincides with a new quarterly issue of the magazine, creating space for deeper conversations and place-based storytelling. Inspiring, real, and shaped by Canada's North.

Melanie Bennett grew up at Engineer Creek, 200 km up the Dempster Highway, when the road was being built. The surrounding wilderness was her playground and schoolroom. That upbringing helps her maintain "one foot on the land" in her role as an educator and executive director of the Yukon First Nation Education Directorate.
