  3. So wonderful to dance in celebration of renaming #Yellowknife's main street from Franklin Ave to Wiiliideh Ave, from the name of a white guy who spent a day or two here in 1820 to the name of this area that has been occupied by the now Yellowknives Dene First Nation for at least 8000 years. cbc.ca/news/canada/north/wiili

  16. SHIFT NWT will start accepting bookings for the 2026 bike lending season on April 5th! The first 2-week bike share session will begin on May 1st!

    Our fleet currently includes four dutch style bikes (two of which are electric), two electric cargo bikes, and two electric trikes. When you book your bike, it’s yours for a full two weeks, free of charge. We want users to have time to embed the bike into their daily travel habits and see how well it fits into their lifestyles.
    Some Facts about SHIFT NWT:

    SHIFT NWT has officially become a not-for-profit society registered in the Northwest Territories. We promote active mobility (i.e. walking, biking, transit, etc), and urban social wellbeing. We believe in making change through positive collaboration and direct outreach.

    Originally, SHIFT NWT was a bike share program formed in 2024 under the umbrella of the NWT Recreation & Parks Association and with the support of the GNWT Healthy Choices Fund.

    SHIFT NWT’s Bike Share Program promotes active mobility by providing the residents of Yellowknife with a free, medium term bike lending program that allows people to experience the benefits of a less car-dependent lifestyle. 2026 will be our 3rd season of helping Yellowknifers try out bike-commuting in their everyday life.

    SHIFT NWT is completely volunteer run and provides other programming such as group rides, an Autumn bike commuting challenge, outreach at the Baby Expo and Spring Trade Show, installation and care of the YK Healthy Urban Policy Team Parklet, a winter biking educational seminar, introduction to winter biking events, speaking events, collaboration with other groups and consultants, and advocacy at the municipal, territorial, and federal levels.

    We are grateful for the continued collaborations with so many individuals and groups that are eager to use changes to our transportation habits to help make #Yellowknife a safer, healthier, more sustainable, and happier city. We believe that when you engage in active mobility, your commute is not just the time lost between your home and destination but a rich and rewarding part of your day in its own right. We also believe that if it’s possible to be less reliant on a car, you can free up financial, mental, and personal resources that can be put to better use.

    Thank you and happy trails!

  17. #DisasterCapitalism in action. After a robust community engagement process that the Chamber of Commerce was all over, these profiteers say they weren't heard cabinradio.ca/283919/news/poli Then the #CarneyCons plan for the #militarization of the #NWT is put out as another way to roll over the interests of #Yellowknife residents and having a sustainable, livable community. cbc.ca/news/canada/north/what- Lessons from the past and forecasts are being ignored
