Smells Like Blog
Welcome to the new Smells Like Yukon Flog. From now on, all updates, news etc related to Smells Like Yukon will be aired on this fan blog, along with the odd bit of dirty laundry. When necessary, we’ll also be using the blog to debunk some of the wildest rumours about Smells Like Yukon. We might as well start now.
No doubt, many Yukoners have heard media reports about problems at Whitehorse General Hospital. According to the media, a group of doctors is none too pleased with the hospital’s CEO. Whatever the source of this friction is, it definitely has nothing to do with Smells Like Yukon. Specifically, there is ABSOLUTELY NO TRUTH to a rumoured sponsorship arrangement whereby all doctors delivering babies in Whitehorse General Hospital would be required to draw a deep breath and pronounce “Smells Like Yukon” immediately before handing the newborn to his or her mother. Furthermore, rumours of compulsory “infant tagging” (i.e. tatooing) with the Smells Like Yukon brand are completely false.
While Smells Like Yukon certainly appreciates the creativity of hospital administration in seeking new sources of revenue, we decided that the proposed arrangement might do more harm than good to Smells Like Yukon’s trusted brand. Also, we couldn’t come up with $50/year.

Well, I must say I’m rather disappointed to hear that the rumour isn’t true. I was looking forward to my next child being one of the first to be branded as an official Yukon infant.

You should start a petition to get the decision reversed. There’s a woman in Porter Creek who’s pretty good with petitions.
