Photo: Kivalliq community officially takes Inuktitut name

Welcome to Naujaat: the Kivalliq community formerly known as Repulse Bay officially becomes Naujaat July 2, as requested by the hamlet in 2014. Naujaat, the community’s original Inuit-language name, means “nesting place for seagulls.” The community of 950 is also celebrating the official opening of nearby Ukkusiksalik National Park July 2.
