Socialist Party of the Yukon Territory

The Socialist Party of the Yukon Territory (French: Parti Socialiste du Territoire du Yukon) was a socialist party, and later a branch of the Socialist Party of Canada, in the Yukon.

History
The party was formed in 1904 from a previous socialist club and joined the SPC in April 1905, with around 50 members. The membership would grow soon afterwards to near 100 people. They were headquartered on Front Street in Dawson City. The party/branch would host events in the city hall and sell cigars as a means of self-sustaining. During the 1905 Russian Revolution, the party raised funds for the revolutionaries. The group did not run canddiates for the elections (territorial or federal), its primary purpose was educational.
