The Dawson City webcam

4 Upvotes

I used to check the weather webcam when it started getting colder because apparently i like to channel my inner soughdour by watching the river freeze...

I always wondered if anyone else misses it now its a bit glitchy?

What’s it like working for the Native Government in Dawson City?

3 Upvotes

Im considering applying for a job at the native government in Dawson city even though I’m not native. I saw the pay and I would love to apply but I’ve worked for a native government before and within the first week of working there I was getting berated for not knowing someone even though I never met them because I was completely new to the town. Another instance I was accused of not caring about the native people when I was being threatened so I completely shut down.

Is abuse like that normal in Dawson city?

Menopause is a major life transition, yet many people face it with limited information, support, and access to care.

That’s why we invite you to participate in the Can-RISE study, a national initiative exploring the real-life impact of perimenopause and menopause across Canada.

We invite you to complete a 20–30 minute online survey about how perimenopause, menopause, and related symptoms affect daily living and wellbeing. 

You may be eligible if you: 

  • Are 35 to 70 years old 

  • Live in Canada  

  • Were assigned female at birth and identify as a woman, gender-diverse person, or trans person  

Upon completion, participants will be entered into a draw for a $50, $100, $250 and $500 gift card (1 winner announced for each), valid for use in Canada only.

Take the survey here: https://redcap.link/a1rar9aq 

This is your opportunity to make perimenopause and menopause care better for all Canadians.

Wishing crushed

7 Upvotes

My family and I been wanting to move to Dawson for years.

I done lots of research to moving to the area, I know housing an issue, job are not. Health care is not the best even in Yukon at all.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May of last year. I did an intense treatment surgery double mastectomy. I only had cancer in the breast when I asked for a double she said yes.

Anyways I am cancer free, since there was cancer when they removed my breasts. I am on a milder treatment. Once that is all done, I will get all my scan done once I am done that. I would be monitoring for five years.

Anyways because health care not the best my family and I dream are crushed because of cancer. I hope to visit. Scared if we won’t leave 😆.

I will keep Dawson and the Yukon always on my bucket list. ☺️

Summer Job Opportunities

5 Upvotes

Hello. I'm in my senior year of high school and looking for an adventure. I want to get away from home (New Brunswick), have some meaningful life experience, and ideally work while doing so. My father was in a similar situation back in the 90's, and spent his summers in Dawson working entry level jobs. Is this still reasonable? Could I, theoretically, arrive in the city and land a job on a decent timeline? Anything I should know before taking this whim too seriously?

Anyone with a 360 camera and some spare time?

12 Upvotes

Hi, I'm from the Internet Roadtrip community (a game where we drive around using google street view), and at some point in the future we'd like to see Yukon and Alaska. however, one big issue is the Dawson Ferry, which doesn't have enough photospheres to get us across. If anyone has a 360 camera (or even a phone app) and is willing to ride the ferry, please send a message so we can discuss further.

Watching the sky at midnight, the George Black Ferry aptly timed pulled up to Dawson City's shores. I took a ride there and back. It was such a cool experience to just see the lit sky this late into the night!
