Nunatsiaq News invites Nunavummiut to tell readers what Inuit Nunangat means to them
Some high-profile people and some ordinary folks doing extraordinary things grabbed headlines over the past year
Arctic haulers race against time and COVID-19
“Support for Canada’s mining sector in the North has never been more important, given how hard the industry has been hit by COVID-19”
“Our focus will remain on serving Nunavummiut, with leading technologies and strong partnerships so that everyone can benefit”
“It was not always easy to stay home, and now it will take extra work to go back to school”
“Peterloosie was one of ours at Uquutaq, one of the younger men who use the shelter, who needed care, attention, guidance and support, and now we will never be able to give it to him”
“Solutions … need to be led by northerners, with capacity development and ownership opportunities for Inuit and Nunavummiut generally”
“Racial injustices, fears and concerns are not new for Inuit or people of African descent living their lives resisting a Eurocentric institutionalized racist and oppressive system of government”
“The Edmonton Eskimos say they will be ‘ramping up consultation with the Inuit community.’ That’s the same thing they said last time.”
“Will I find employment with housing quickly enough after I graduate, or will I end up like my younger sister, moving south simply to find a decent place to live?”
