the North vs. the north

Land in Canada located north of the 60^th parallel. INAC's responsibilities for land and resources in the Canadian North relate only to the three territories Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon.

Capitalize: the "N" in North only when used in reference to the three territories (Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon) as a geographical region.

I look at different circumstances, having been up in the North and looked at the company that is building diamond mines in the Northwest Territories.

Inuit reside in the North.

I travelled to Thunder Bay to see the north.
