About Yukon
Minister responsible for Immigration, Hon. Patrick Rouble
As Minister responsible for Immigration, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Government of Yukon Immigration website.
Immigrants come to Yukon from all parts of the world and we recognize them as important contributors to our unique culture. We feel that Yukon offers newcomers many opportunites to build satisfying new lives here, and we are working together to develop and enrich our communities for future generations. Our diverse population shares a beautiful Northern setting, rich history, and innovative approach to development.
Although Citizenship and Immigration Canada makes the decision on who can immigrate to Canada, the Yukon Nominee Program can expedite the process for qualifying potential immigrants.
If you are interested in the possibility of immigration to Yukon, please take the time to look through the pages of this site and follow the many links to additional information.
Sincerely,
Patrick Rouble, Minister of Education
