    Off topic here, but, why don’t you guys make sanikiluaq part of nunavik? And fir sani people, my question is why don’t you all Relocate to other communities on mainland? The island is not giving you drinking water.

    Northerner, you might want to do a little research on the history of the Sanikiluaq people. After you read up on it, you will understand why.

    I have a video of a blackbilled magpie perched on top of the telephone pole here in baker lake nu. It’s the first time I’ve seen a magpie this far north.
