Pat Ekomiak, an Inuk from Chisasibi, speaks to Nunavik Regional Government negotiators at a March 16 information session in Montreal. Ekomiak says his community feels left out of Nunavik's new governance model. Chisasibi, located below Quebec's 55th parallel in the Cree territory, remains home to many Inuit beneficiaries. The March 16 meeting was the final stop in a month-long tour which took NRG negotiators through Nunavik to field questions about the April 27 referendum on whether to accept or reject the NRG.
