My unforgettable ride down the Alaskan Highway with Lynch Collison
When my motorcycle broke down on the Alaskan Highway, a burley character driving a rack truck came to the rescue. For three days and 540 miles, he carried my bike and me down the road. Along the way, he told colorful stories about life in the far north, pointed out the amazing features of the land and scared local wildlife with his loud, bawdy songs.

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.
