CHON-FM

The Liard Aboriginal Women's Society has received up to one million dollars from the Canadian government to help Indigenous women combat gender-based violence in their community.

CHON-FM was at the Whitehorse air tanker base to cover a practice involving transferring fire retardant from tanks into a Lougheed Electra L-188 aircraft. The fire retardant was then dumped onto the tarmac.

Multiple events will be occurring over the weekend as part of Caribou Days in Old Crow, including ceremonial activities around the importance of the regional porcupine caribou herd, the signing of a management plan and a declaration to signal the start of a climate change emergency in the community.

The 44th annual Association of Yukon Communities wrapped-up last weekend with fire prevention, procurement strategies, and communication between municipal and territorial governments being some of the highlights.

Dawson City Council passed their 2019 operating budget last week, which focused on waster and water infrastructure, a new 10-year capital plan, and money towards a new recreation complex.
