Lucy, You are quite the 'ambassador' for the Northwest Territories. Thanks! From the States.
This is a beautiful tribute to the city. I hope residents will be able to see it like this again.
Wow i did not expect to see that many buildings in Yellowknife!
It seems like it would be a cool place to be from about mid-June till Labour Day
I grew up in Yellowknife and I'm not going to lie, I actually miss it. I would love to move back one day.
Damn lucky to have had the chance. Im from Cape town, South africa. Personally Im looking at alaska but whitehorse and yellowknife are awesome looking
Thanks for a great tour Petrena. Praying it all remains as you have seen it....I know a few people who have gone to visit Yellowknife, and never came back because of its warmth and beauty. May it be so forever
It is so beautiful! I am praying my territory can recover from this soon.🙏
@@PetrenaSchellWhat would the Average person spent, for a week's worth of Groery's???😅🎉❤
@@andynieuwenhuis7833 ummm, if it's just one person. Probably $200.🙈😂
@@PetrenaSchellI chatted with a woman about 15 years ago who lived in Yellowknife and worked for the Canadian version of child protective services. She was nice. It sounded interesting. Greetings from Washington state.
As you said,
Super expensive. Just like any other place, the times are nothing like they used to be. I think we should bring back the pencil and paper days. A completely different world then. Yes, I'm a senior and remember those days.
I'm Mexican and it's fun to watch how people live in remote parts of the world. I cannot imagine living in a place that gets colder than 45 Celsius lol But thanks for sharing; the place looks interesting.
I swear I am from Yellowknife in a prior life. I am so drawn to this place. Definitely on the bucket list!
I watch the weather all throughout the year I live in Wisconsin USA and I laugh and show other people on Facebook just how darn coldly gets up there it's funny. So I just looked at the forecast for February 1st and it's funny the low tonight's gonna be -37 below 0 but tomorrow it's going to go up to a balmy heatwave of -27 below of a high That is hilarious we hear Wisconsin think when it's 4 below wow wow wow wow wow be careful I love this crap when we're just a bunch of wimps to those tough Northwest territory
Great video! I have family there and I visited twice now. Very beautiful in the but cold in the winter!
I never even knew of the existence of this town until a few years ago. A Canadian guy living here in the states told me he was visiting his family in Yellowknife up in Canada and I had no idea where this place was or why I've never heard of it.
Great video, brings back so many memories. I spent about 15 years in Yellowknife in the 70’s and 80’s, mostly living in Old Town directly across from Ragged Ass Road. I would look out my kitchen window while doing the dishes and occasionally spot a brave tourist trying to pry the street sign off from the pole. Eventually the city got smart and welded the sign in place, leaving notice that Ragged Ass Road signs could be purchased at city hall. Anyways, I miss being out on the frozen lake in the winter and just being amazed at the northern lights. And don’t get me started on the fishing!
I was fortunate when I drove up there one winter some years back and got a chance to drive across that steep bridge across the Mackenzie river. That must've cost a mint build ? Going across the ferry would've been ok too. I wonder if the permafrost has warped the road much going into Yellowknife ? Must be a pain the butt for truckers with their semi's !
I must say driving into this metropolis in the middle of nowhere was an interesting experience !
When I lived in Gjoa Haven in the 90s and 2000s, my regular trips to Yellowknife were such a treat and I would jump with excitement every time I'd take the Darryl's shuttle from the airport to my hotel and looking at the "skyscapers" of downtown Yellowknife. I really miss my little town.
Strange that even up north there is housing crunch. I understand Toronto, Vancuover as there is bigger population. But there is less population up north so they should be able to build more housing there.
Went to Sir John Franklin highschool, stayed in Akatcho Hall late 70s early 80s
Sensational, it was just like going through all those places physically.
That was well done. I can’t say that I’ve ever given Yellowknife much thought, but you did a very good job of show casing the city and demonstrating that it is an interesting place.
Thank you! It definitely is worth a visit.😊
@@PetrenaSchell have you been to America before?
Heard my fellow Filipino having a conversation on your background at Wild Cat Cafe... Yeah!!😎😎
Ditto! I’m glad to hear my native tongue. I know there are Filipino residents there. My family has been living in Southern Ontario Canada for over 25 years. Thank you Petrena for posting.
always loved Yellowknife
I hope the mining companies paid to bury all that arsenic!How will permafrost melting affect the arsenic?
Permafrost does not melt that far down.
you seem so kind and your video is not "over the top drama" like so many others! subscribed
Thank you! I appreciate that.😊🙌
Thank you
Back in the day when I grew up there at noon their was a siren that would blare to warn of rock blasting. You could feel the ground shake a little sometimes. It’s beautiful and full of life in the summer. I highly recommend it.
It’s amazing. Don’t be apologetic. With little to no housing, you’ll be guaranteed to keep it like it is. ❤
Beautiful video! Thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you!❤️
Spent many weeks in Yellowknife because my Daughter lives there. Love the city and loved the tour. Thanks
It looks like a very interesting town. Thanks for sharing this unusual place with those who will likely never see it in person.
I can't even imagine how cold it must get.

Thanks for the tour. Yellowknife is on my bucketlist.
This is a really good video. Never knew any of this.
Thank you.😊
Excellent video!!! It appears that you know how to capture anyone's attention by making every video you do. Your style is wonderful, Petrina!! Now you know why you value and crave sharing with everyone what we see through your eyes. Yellowknife is the right place to show your many desires, just one look to the side and you open up to the wonders that make you more and more special, it is your style and don't ever stop, that is who you are. Such a refreshing experience with you, thanks so much for giving us that blessing. Beautiful country and full of wonders!! Cheers!!!! ❤👍😎
Thank you so much!! I am so grateful I get to share these amazing experiences with you. I appreciate your support. Happy Thursday!✨️❤️
Hello from Florida, what a nice looking city.
On my bucket list baby!
I'm so fascinated by the NWT and Yellowknife. I'm finally going to visit next summer. Then again in winter.
I lived in Yellowknife for one summer in the early 80's and had a ball. It sure has changed but I remember the Wildcat Cafe!
Thx for sharing.
The great slave lake!
Plan to visit in.Oct.
You will love it!!
I worked summers, when I was a college student, at a smelter in Montana that would occasionally get a shipment of ore concentrates that arrived in small tin barrels that were marked "Yellowknife, Northwest Territories." That ore was so rich that it was kept in a building called the "high grade shack," and more than once I was told to just stay there for 8 hours to make sure no one took any of the stuff. So you-all up there must have been digging up some juicy sweet ore.
I’d love to visit there someday in the future.
That food looks really good and fresh!
saya senang sekali lihat video ini terimakasih..Y from city malang east jawa indonesia 👍👍👍
I visited Yellowknife in 2012. Nice town.I want to return soon!
Hello from Alaska! I’m an Alaska Native from Alaska. The Northwest Territories look beautiful like Alaska does.
Hi!🙋🏼♀️ Alaska is high on my bucket list! It looks incredible.
A nice Yellowknife trip! Happy first day of fall, Petrena!🍂🍂❤️❤️
Thank you! Happy first day of fall to you as well!🍁🍂
You too!
03:04 I would probably go to this pub and sit there the whole day 😂
Great video! I really liked the natural way you spoke throughout. Good luck in future endeavors! (and I SUB'd).
The NWT is a fascinating place and the more videos from there, the better. Hay River next stop, I guess?
Super cool .. I’ve been wanting to travel up there
Reminds me of northern Ontario
I love those houseboats.
Yeah, very popular because they are outside city jurisdiction and therefore pay no city taxes.
Seeping sewage into Great Slave! Homeless people with money...nice!
Looks gorgeous! I'd love to visit someday :D
I have always been interested in the Northern Canada cities. Really great video!
Awesome! Thank you! You definitely should visit.
Hi Petrena !
Such a cool video and very interesting.
I realy love canada because i was in the Yukon region for camping and wildernes adventures 😉👍.
Greetings from Germany
That's awesome!! The North is beautiful. Thanks for watching!😊🙌
I'm in the Vancouver area of British Columbia. After watching your video, I want to drive up and tour the area. So beautiful!
Hi petrena so Nice to see you. Superb Black night pub. And closed mine also. Northwest seanary is beautiful. Thank You so much petrena go ahead all the Best. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for watching! I am happy you enjoyed my video. Wishing you the most beautiful week ahead!
@@PetrenaSchell Thank you so much Patrena, I am from India. You are from?
Thanks Petrena. I've always had a fasination for the north. I would definitely like to visit sometime.
It's amazing!! I highly recommend it.✨️
@@PetrenaSchell It may be a retirement plan. I live in Churchill, Manitoba. To go south, then east, or west in Canada, and then north again is quite expensive, or time consuming. And my family doesn't live in Yellowknife.
Thank you so much for the tour of Yellowknife NT. My husband and I are going house hunting there on Tuesday, so your video has gotten me really excited about moving there and visiting there. Will try your recommendation for food.
It will be an amazing life experience living up North! The fish from the lake is the best!
@@PetrenaSchell thank you, love fish, can't wait to taste some.
Great video! Thank you for sharing. Aloha from Hawaii🙂
Thank you! Aloha!
Beautiful city i am indian
Dear Petrena Schell. I found you while searching for information on youtube. Your video is beautiful and relaxing. It gave me rest while I was looking for information for my project and I thank you for that. A few issues are very important to me. I would be very happy if you answer. "Where are the Industrial Industrial Zones in Canada in the North Country Regions? Especially in the Nunavut Region, where are the manufacturing industry - textile sector - and where can I find information?" (Kind regards)
Beautiful - so different from dry South Africa
A spectacular video congratulations
Thank you!😊🙌
@@PetrenaSchell 🙏🙏🙏
I miss ghetoknife! Was there for 9 years
Cool, downtown is way bigger than I expected it to be.
August 17 News reports: Everybody is evacuating to avoid the wildfires … I want to see what the town looks like. I’m far away, New York State.
Well done,
that lunch looked delicious
It was amazing!!
The house boats stir up a lot of questions for me. Question regarding, water supply, sewage, heating, ice damage, access during thin ice periods...etc. Unless of course they’re just summer homes.
Nice to see your home in Canada. I'm in Alaska and I was looking on Google map some places in Canada. I found Deline on great bear lake and searched on TH-cam and found Yellowknife. What language do people in Yellowknife speak besides English.
There is a large Dene population, as this is their land, they speak Dene. There are also a few other indigenous languages spoken. 😊 I want to visit Alaska!
Nice
Beautiful video with lots of interesting history. Do you know what make of floatpanes they use on the lakes? Can you imagine how much the gold that they mined there is worth $$ in today's market? Thanks for taking the time to produce this great video.
237,000 tons of arsenic buried in Yellowknife. Not a lot of people know that. That's one for the pub quiz, thanks Petrena
Pub quiz, love it!
Sounds like an environmental disaster waiting to happen!
Petrena, you look wonderful!
Thank you so much🙏😊
Hi petrena love from India.Hyderabad ❤️
Olá Petrina te amo muito ♥️🙏🇧🇷
Hi.i am shapna chakroborty from Bangladesh. Nice to see you.
I suspect the reason for the housing crunch is that like Alaska, the government probably owns most of the available land. There’s no shortage of physical land in Canada.
Hi petrena how are you
You are traveling stop
From bhaarath now in kuwait 🌾
good
I am Japanese but I want to visit yellownife!!
I want to visit Japan!
Yellowknife gets many tourists from Japan and Asia. Many come in the winter to see the Aurora (northern lights.) You can't see them in the summer months because of the 24 hours of daylight.
Home!
Uhhh I wish I could live up there. Would love to be further north.
Me too-ya- .. I have been there-ya… I didn’t see you there-ya… where did you go- ya..😅😂
Beautiful vedio 👌👌👍
Thank you! ❤️
Cute like those fishing towns in New Brunswick. Trust me, the big city life isn't so special, constant noise, dirty, and expensive.
Why is the black knight,silver ?
Pretty big downtown for a city of 20,000.😊
🌺Hi mam 🌺 good morning 🌺 beautiful city & excellent video 💐💐💐
Its very Beautiful , but who knows what lives in the Forrests around This Area. Never go alone into the Forrest.
Did she skip touring the NWT Capitol building?
Do northern lights show up there ?
Nice vedio, get to virtually see various cities of Northern Canada..
They sure do!! When I get back North in a month I will post a video of the Northern lights.😊
I heard they call Yellowknife the vegas of canada. I dont see it tho
See plenty articles about residential shortage and humungous rental rates in Canada. Why? Why are new homes and units not built?
how do you know when not to drive on the ice? There must be some people who make a big mistake of when to drive on the ice.
All love and support from telugu traveller naa anveshana,
Thank you!
What about mosquitoes in the summer?
I have a good freind in this area, how much would it be to be there for around 3-4 days from Los Angeles to there? And what are the hotels looking like there ?
It depends what you want to do, but you can get good seat sales on Westjet, and I think a hotel would be around $200. Just guessing on that one though.
Are people able to drive sedans during winters at Yellowknife?
Yes, sedans, trucks cars even atv's. Anything that gets you around.
That random little island has a name . Joliffe island.
I need you to be my tour guide
