The Yukon is awesome. You'll really like it.
In Whitehorse I liked eating at Sanchez Cantina (Mexican restaurant downtown). Very good food comparable to good Mexican restaurants in Calgary. I also liked eating at the Baked cafe and bakery for a less expensive meal. They also have nice coffee there and a cool atmosphere.
Also, outside of town but maybe 20 kms away or so you can go to the Bean North Coffee Roasting Co. Great coffee and it's on the way to a wildlife reserve.
I had a short trip there and my outing choice was to go to Skagway, AK for a night. It is definitely worth your while to get a passport to do this. The drive there is about 2 hours and the coastline/inlet there is amazing. They have a lot of wildlife and some cool ruins of an old town in a forest. Plus you can use the passport if you drive to Chicken or somewhere else in Alaska.
