The 2007 Canada Winter Games were held in Whitehorse, Yukon. These were the first Canada Games held North of 60 (in the polar regions). The games were held concurrent with the Inuit Games and Denee Games.

The torch design used during the torch relay preceding the openning of the Games was based on that of a caribou antler.

Opening Ceremonies

The opening ceremonies were held on Friday 23 Feburary 2007. They were aired on CBC and the First Nations Channel, broadcast in English, French, and Inuktituk. The national anthem was sung twice, first in T'chone and then in the usual mixed-language English and French (starting in English, then changing language verse by verse). The premieres of Yukon, Nunavut and Northwest Territories along with the Canadian Prime Minister did opening speeches.
