Yukon Gas Pipeline to Spur Population Boom in Yukon
The 48 inch American gas line planned to run 500 miles through the territory aims to reach lower 48 markets. Officials, business leaders and the territorial government back the $10 billion project as economic stimulus, while critics warn of cultural disruption and environmental risk. Local estimates suggest Whitehorse could gain 6 000 to 8 000 people, with construction drawing up to 2 000 workers and potential housing pressures.
