In 2021, ISNA Canada set out to complete a lofty goal of building a masjid for the most northern Muslim community in Canada. The City of Yellowknife is the capital city of The Northwest Territories and is currently populated by over 600 Muslims. In 2022, construction of the Yellowknife Mosque began and the foundation of the new Islamic Centre of Yellowknife (ICYK) is now in place.
