The coroner’s inquest into the death of Kaiya Sandra Faith Stone-Kirk, a seven-month-old from the #WatsonLake area, wrapped up this afternoon. Jurors will meet tomorrow at 9 a.m. to deliberate on the case details and perhaps table recommendations. I sat through most of the inquest this week, daily from 9-5; it was among the most challenging things I have ever covered.

A #Yukon town with less than 1,000 residents has become "KitKat famous" after having its top tourist attraction (the #SignPostForest) featured on #KitKat packaging nationwide. I spoke with folks there, and it would be an understatement to say they are VERY excited about the honour. #canada #yukonterritory #watsonlake #news
