The Government of Yukon is considering changes to the Residential Landlord and Tenant Act pertaining to mobile home tenancies and sought input from mobile home owners, tenants and park owners.

We wanted to know your input on two general issues: the ability of a park owner to evict mobile home owners without cause, and whether there should be controls on how the mobile home park owner can raise pad rents.

The Government of Yukon is proposing to change the Regulation in the Parks and Land Certainty Act to limit the time campsites may be left unoccupied, and to increase the fine for not adhering to this rule.

The Government of Yukon and the Yukon Fish and Wildlife Management Board are asking Yukoners to complete a survey about grizzly bear conservation and management. 

The Government of Yukon sought public input about the possibility of declaring National Aboriginal Day a statutory holiday in Yukon. The engagement took place from May 16 to July 16, 2017.

It's important that the government website works for you. This survey was intended to help us find out what information Yukoners need, as well as the tasks they expect to accomplish on a government website.

The Government of Yukon wishes to amend the Legal Profession Act, with the goal of tabling a bill during the fall legislative session.

The current Act has not kept up with changes to the way the legal profession is regulated in other Canadian jurisdictions, and needs flexibility to deal with the way the legal profession has changed over the last 20 years.

The government is seeking the views of lawyers, legal organizations and the business community. Members of the general public are also encouraged to submit their opinions.

We are conducting an online survey to gather feedback from Yukoners on the school calendar. Our goal is to set school calendar dates for the next four years so that all school communities can more easily plan for school and holidays. 

We want to know your thoughts on:

• when school should start and end;
• the dates for Christmas and March break; and
• the length of the school day, school year and summer break. 

The Government of Yukon is modernizing the regulatory structure under which societies operate to better meet present and future needs. We are providing you with an opportunity to review proposed key policy directions for the new societies legislation.   

This engagement was to inform school communities and to gather feedback on the Government of Yukon's proposed changes to student assessment and the way that schools communicate to students and parents about student learning progress. 

The Public Airports Act was passed in November 2017. The second phase of engagement about regulations will open in 2018 and dates and event locations will be posted here once they are known.

The Public Airports Act establishes the government’s legal authority to manage airports and airport lands.  It complements federal legislation and provides the legal authority to manage day-to-day airport operations.

Airports in Yukon have been operating using various pieces of legislation including the Lands Act, the Territorial Lands (Yukon) Act, the Motor Vehicles Act, the Financial Administration Act since the mid-1990s. This piecemeal approach was only intended to be temporary.

The Government of Yukon modelled the new airports Act after the NWT’s Public Airports Act.  Details to the Act will follow in regulations, which we will develop over the next 6 to 12 months.

We invited aviation stakeholders and industry representatives to provide feedback on the proposed Act. We asked them what they would like to see in the Act, and what, if anything, they thought was missing.
