When did Yukon join Canada?

1870
1880
1898
1905

The correct answer is: 1898

Context Yukon officially became a part of Canada in 1898 when the Yukon Act was passed. This act established the Yukon Territory as a separate entity within Canada and granted it a degree of self-government. The options of 1870, 1880, and 1905 are incorrect as they do not correspond with the year that Yukon officially joined Canada. Option 1870 is too early, as it predates the passing of the Yukon Act, and options 1880 and 1905 are too late, as they come after 1898. Therefore, they can be ruled out as possible answers. Option 1898, the correct answer, is significant because that was the year that Yukon officially became a territory of Canada.
