The PacNW Wine Regions’ Climatic Challenges and Benefits There are isolated places in the hills and dales of the NW that have known vines for more than 100 years, and they are the exception rather than the rule. Phrases like “Black Freeze” were coined from the seasons that froze the vines back to their roots and successfully stunted the PacNW vinifera industry for most of the twentieth century. Like every climate, there are those pockets of agriculture which are sheltered or drained just right to avoid the climate’s extremes, but they are always the few. More often, grape growers turn to other means for dulling the edges of climate. It is no different in the Northwest, and happily, that stress brings out the best in the vines, the wines and the people who raise them. pacific • northwest • wine • climate • vintage

A Look at the Provinces,Part XII:Northwest Territories & Nunavut This is the twelfth and last article in the series. Since I've already written an article on Nunavut and it is hard to find information for the NWT and Nunavut separately I will combine them. The Former North West Territories is made up of the North West Territories and of Nunavut. It is made up of most of the artic, except Yukon and Alaska (and Greenland) and includes all islands in the Hudson's Bay. It has an area of 3,426,320 square kilometres and has a population of 57,649 people. The Capital was Yellownife and remains so for the NWT. Nunavut's Capital is Iqualuit (formerly known as Forbisher Bay). It joined confederation when bought by the Canadian government in 1870. northwest territories • canada • nunavut • provinces • territory
