Since 1994 the project has been a joint initiative of the Yukon Heritage Branch, Department of Tourism and Kwanlin Dün First Nation with the support of the Yukon Conservation Society and MacBride Museum. The principal investigator at the site was T.J. Hammer, of Simon Fraser University, with the intermittent assistance of Greg Hare and Ruth Gotthardt of the Yukon Heritage Branch. The research undertaken at Canyon City was the basis for T.J. Hammer's Master's thesis. Our understanding of the traditional land use of the Canyon City area comes from the oral history work conducted by Kwanlin Dün community researchers Donna Hagen and Sweeney Scurvey and from earlier research of anthropologist Catharine McClellan. We gratefully acknowledge the valuable contribution of elders Mrs. May Hume, Mrs. Julia Joe, Mrs. Lucy Wren, Mrs. Mary James, Jimmy G. Smith, Edwin Scurvey, Edward Gordon, Mrs. Virginia Vallevand, John Suits, Louie Smith, Rose Charlie and Ronald Bill. We are also grateful to Lawrence Cyr for sharing his knowledge of the early days.

Spawning Run and Gold Rush: Is a Multicultural History of the Yukon Within Our Grasp? Or Anthropology and History: and Have Hardly Learned a Thing Paper presented to the Alaska Anthropological Association Conference, Whitehorse, Yukon, 11 April 1997 Amanda Graham Yukon College Table of Contents Introduction I. Reorienting Historical Thinking II. Public Historical Understanding III. Contemporary Intercultural Relations in the Yukon ... Conclusion Introduction Many recent works incorporate introductory chapters on the traditional ranges, life ways and cultural features of the Yukon’s First Nations, but, it seems to me, that most of these studies have not fully realized or integrated the implications of the long occupation of this region by the First Nations. In many accounts, the Native inhabitants of the Yukon have been lumped together as "Indians" (a European concept of longstanding use ) or "Natives" and treated with little regard for individual cultural differences or actual historical experiences. There is another, related aspect to this problem. Yukon public history, that is, the stuff we commemorate in our cityscapes, on our special occasionsand holidays, and in our displays to visiting dignitaries, emphasises, almost exclusively, the Klondike Gold Rush. Our contemporary identity as Yukoners is that, apparently, of modern-day prospectors searching for our nuggets of gold (a notion that perhaps translates as "get rich quick"). Even today, when we talk about the arrival and settlement of thousands of people in the gold fields, the Native people who aided and avoided that flood of humanity are rarely mentioned (last year at the International Gold Panning Championships in Dawson, a government official gave a short account of Dawson history that did not include any reference to the Han at all)

Shatford was elected president, the financial statement showed total receipts of $4,096.65 and expenditures of $5,581.66. The Chamber fortunately survived those early, difficult financial years. Early in 1922 the signing of a five year lease in a building located at 438 West Pender Street signaled that better financial times had arrived. During this period, and in later years, financial aid was provided by both the City of Vancouver and the Province of British Columbia Immediately after its formation, the Chamber began establishing its library, its impressive mineral collection and on, November 28, 1918

In actual fact, the previous one-day format for the Chamber Annual General Meeting, which had been held for a number of years at the Hotel Vancouver and more recently at the Holiday Inn Harbourside, had become stale and tired and declining attendances had made it clear to the Chamber executive that a change was needed. The following is a short account of how that change came about. Nobody seems to remember exactly when the light bulb came on and whose head it was hanging over, but Nick Carter recalls a discussion of the concept with Jack Patterson, Chamber Managing Director, and Bob Cathro, then Chamber President, while en route by ferry to

Several trading posts were built on the Yukon River, and before long prospectors began to search for treasure. The Canadian government acquired the Yukon from the Hudson's Bay Company in 1870 and administered it as part of the Northwest Territories. After the famous gold strikes in the Klondike River region in the 1890s, thousands of fortune hunters arrived in search of gold. This colorful period was recorded in the writings of Robert Service and Jack London.

Even though Yukon is in the remote North, vehicle registrations were set up suprisingly early. This is probably due to the gold-rush (the Klondike ) which started at the end of the 19th century. The Yukon was settled by many, who came to seek their fortune in gold. Dawson City was supposedly the largest city west of Winnipeg at one point! Today, much of this boom has gone bust, as many of these "get rich quick" overnight operations folded. As a result, there are a lot of isolated ghost towns not connected by any modern routes. The Yukon first started registration in 1914, using flat tin plates which displayed the year of issue rather than the year of expiry . The plates were handpainted using a stencil on flat tin and probably all done by the same signpainter. They were intended to be permanent until replaced by the annual embossed license plates provided by the territory starting in 1924. All these early plates carried "YT" for Yukon Territory. An interesting design came out in 1952 with the miner "Yukon Sam" panning for gold, complete with a gold nugget in the pan! This wasn't real gold, of course, but rather a dab of gold paint, applied by hand. The "Land of the Midnight Sun" has provided us with a colorful license plate history as you can see on the far left. The tri-color styles (where the miner is of a different color from the numbers) are very popular with collectors.
