Territory of NW Canada; capital Whitehorse (5)

I believe the answer is:

yukon

(Other definitions for yukon that I've seen before include "part of Canada" , "remote territory" , "Canadian territory containing Klondike" , "River in northern Canada" , "mineral-rich area" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
