Makivvik’s top self-determination negotiator is travelling to every Nunavik community to provide his first update on renewed self-governance talks, and to hear people’s questions and concerns about the topic.
Nunavik singer-songwriter Elisapie holds up the Canada Post stamp that commemorates her. The stamp was unveiled in a ceremony in Montreal on Thursday as part of a series to celebrate Indigenous leaders.

A lightning bolt streaks through the sky over Kuujjuaq Tuesday at around 11:30 p.m. The show lasted a couple of hours, at times with flashes every 30 seconds or so. This photo was taken from atop a hill overlooking the Kuujjuaq River. (Photo by Isabelle Dubois, special to Nunatsiaq News)
