Nunavik teachers strike continues
Teachers in Umiujaq picket in front of the school on Jan. 17. Nunavik teachers entered their third day of a four-day strike on Monday. The strike is set to end Tuesday at 11 a.m. The Kativik Ilisarniliriniq school board said last week that schools in the region’s 14 communities are closed during the strike. The teachers have worked without a new contract since May 2023. (Photo by Malaya Qaunirq Chapman, special to Nunatsiaq News)
