Paul Parsons, mayor of Kuujjuaq, tries out the Kativik School Board’s new driving simulator in the Kuujjuaq adult education centre Nov. 30, as instructor Daphne Lefebvre of the KSB looks on. The KSB has purchased two driving simulators, one for Kuujjuaq and the other for Inukjuak, which will be used by students enrolled in its new driving classes. The courses will prepare participants to take Quebec driving license exams — and, the school board and other regional organizations hope, lead to safer driving practices in Nunavik.
