A Traditional Territory is an area of the Yukon that the people of a First Nation have traditionally used. A First Nation does not own its Traditional Territory, but the First Nation and its beneficiaries have a number of rights within their Traditional Territory, both on and off of Settlement Land.
The Government of Yukon acknowledges that Indigenous Peoples have traditional territories throughout the Yukon and celebrates their role as stewards of the lands and waters and their ongoing connection to this place.
