I lived in Northern Manitoba for a lot of my life...not as "north" as I could have been (eg the northern territories). It was gorgeous; the summers were warm, the winters were as cold as some states along the border. The fishing was amazing, the lakes unpoluted and the wildlife amazing. The northern lights are what legends are made of.
To the person who said global warming hasnt taken effect yet. Actually, it has. People on remote locations who rely on "ice roads" to bring in supplies now have a shorter season to get supplies in. That means that for some, the time they can be employed doing that has been decreased. In places like Churchill Manitoba, they are having more problems with polar bears. The ice on the Hudson Bay is melting earlier and causing more problems for seals (which the bears hunt) and the bears come to the towns more looking for food. As a result, we may only be able to see these beautiful polar bears on our money and in zoos as they become extinct.
Any place in the world has beauty if you look for it; but "the true north strong and free" (in our national anthem) is one of the best

First of all - Alaska isn't in Canada. and Edmonton isn't a province. Yes, people live in the Territories - Nuvat for one. Hey, they even have Internet up there. I guess it depends on what yo mean by northern Canada. The Yukon definitely is in Northern Canada - Whitehorse and Yellowknife are both decent size towns. It's only cold in the winter - a dry cold. Try searching those two cities to find out more.

I've always wanted to go there.
There are a little under 50,000 people up North, most of them Inuit. That's spread between 3 huge territories.

Yes, there are actually over five hundred million people living up here, but we hide in the snow banks so the government can't find us.
