Takhini (formerly Takhini-Kopper King) is a territorial electoral district of Yukon that has been represented in the Yukon Legislative Assembly since 2011.
The riding was established in 2009 out of much of the former district of McIntyre-Takhini. In accordance with the Yukon Electoral District Boundaries Act (2024), it underwent moderate boundary changes and was renamed Takhini for the 2025 Yukon general election.
Since 2011, the district has been represented Kate White, leader of the Yukon New Democratic Party.
Geography
[edit]As of the 2025 election, Takhini comprises the Whitehorse subdivisions of Takhini and Raven's Ridge, as well as Kopper King, Northland mobile home parks, and the residences along Fish Lake Road.
