Nothing says Yukon like an old fashioned saloon and gambling hall. Dawson City’s world famous casino, the oldest in Canada, is housed in the old Arctic Brotherhood Hall that was built in 1901. Diamond Tooth Gertie's Casino is named after a dance hall queen named Gertie Lovejoy who during the gold rush of 1898 wedged a diamond between her two front teeth.
