Kwanlin Dün First Nation

Kwanlin Dün First Nation

The Kwanlin Dün First Nation is located in and around Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory of Canada. It is the largest First Nation in the Yukon. The original population were Tagish people from Marsh Lake, but migration from other parts of the north swelled its population. The Kwanlin Dün First Nation signed a land claims and self-government agreement in 2004.

Mike Smith is currently the Chief of the First Nation.
