Igloolik mayor didn’t urge Arvaluk to run in Amittuq

On your June 27 issue, I would like to make a clarification.

James Arvaluk made a comment to reporters that the mayor of Igloolik had asked him to run in the Amittuq riding in the general election.

I don’t recall ever telling him to run for Amittuq.

I know James has done a lot for his riding, and I wish him luck in his future.

Mayor of Igloolik
