The Whitehorse Chamber of Commerce is proud to represent close to 500 businesses and organizations in the Yukon and is the only accredited Chamber of Commerce in all of Northern Canada to have received the chamber accreditation of Canada's five star accreditation rating, recognizing our chamber as being one of the top 10% of all of Canadian chambers.
An important part of the Chamber’s mandate is to advocate for the business community to all levels of government. The WCC has representation on boards and committees to ensure the business perspective is included in decision-making processes - presenting business perspectives on issues such as procurement, land development and housing issues, City of Whitehorse waste management, City budgeting processes, property tax, economic development initiatives to make Whitehorse more business friendly and downtown parking, to name a few.
The Whitehorse Chamber of Commerce has developed partnerships with a number of associations, as well as with a variety of Yukon Government departments to represent the interests of the business community. We respond to phone calls and drop-ins, to answer questions and to connect people with your business.
