Keeping the road plans rolling

with Stewart Burnett

Minimum wage will increase to $19

Sanikiluaq

Nunavut As of 2024, minimum wage in Nunavut will be increasing from $16 per hour to $19, according to the Government of Nunavut. The Department of Justice recommended the rate increase after a comprehensive survey and consultations with businesses and employees during summer 2023, stated a news release. “We recognize that the minimum wage needs to work for employers and employees and reflect the realities of living and working in Nunavut,” stated Minister of Justice David Akeeagok. “I am confident that the increase strikes the appropriate balance for our territory, while also helping to address the impact of inflation and cost of living increases for those earning minimum wage in Nunavut.” The Department of Justice is also reviewing a new method of calculating the minimum wage to allow for annual incremental increases, with the aims to provide greater certainty to Nunavut businesses while helping Nunavummiut keep up with costs.

Savanna Pikuyak scholarship open

Nunavut The Department of Health is now accepting applications for the Savanna Pikuyak Scholarship for Nunavut Inuit enrolled in the pre-health program at Nunavut Arctic College. Savanna Pikuyak was a strong, kind-hearted, young Inuk woman who was accepted into the pre-health program at Algonquin College in the 2022-2023 school year, stated the Government of Nunavut in a news release. “Savanna worked for three summers as a summer student at the health centre in Sanirajak before taking the leap and advancing her studies in the nursing program,” the GN stated. In honour of Pikuyak, this scholarship aims to recognize students in Nunavut Arctic College’s pre-health program. The Department of Health awards one $5,000 annual scholarship to a student who compellingly articulates their motivation for pursuing a career in nursing. For details on how to apply, including application procedures, process and guidelines, contact Jo-Anne Idlout at jidlout1@gov.nu.ca.

Baker Laker among artists in residence at WAG

Winnipeg Eva Qirniq Noah of Baker Lake is one of three artists selected for an upcoming artist residency in the Winnipeg Art Gallery — Qaumajuq residence program. “I am pleased to announce that my department, in collaboration with Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated, is launching a Nunavut artist in residence program at the Winnipeg Art Gallery — Qaumajuq, starting January 2024,” said Minister of Culture and Heritage Joelie Kaernerk in the legislative assembly Oct. 30. “This program will give selected Inuit artists, one from each region, the opportunity to produce work and promote the Winnipeg Art Gallery and Qaumajuq. Mr. Speaker, this residency will be a four-weeklong post and the selected artists will receive a $10,000 artist fee, which consists of per diems and accommodations within walking distance to the gallery. They will also have daily access to a studio space at Winnipeg Art Gallery — Qaumajuq and to the gallery’s media arts equipment and facilities.” Of the 19 applicants, three were chosen. In addition to Noah, Aghalingiak Ohokannoak from Cambridge Bay and Dayle Kubluitok from Iqaluit were chosen. “The Government of Nunavut’s fine art collection is currently housed at the Winnipeg Art Gallery on a five-year loan,” added Kaernerk. “Hosting the artist in residency at the Winnipeg Art Gallery will allow the artists to enhance their skills and visit the Government of Nunavut’s Fine Art Collection, which is also accessible to the public virtually on the Winnipeg Art Gallery — Qaumajuq website.”

Baker Lake MLA Craig Simailak queried the minister of Economic Development and Transportation about whether the Nunavut Land Use Plan would impact hopes for an intercommunity Kivalliq road. NNSL file photo By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative

Calling the Kivalliq Intercommunity Road initiative a transformative project, Baker Lake MLA Craig Simailak asked how the Department of Economic Development and Transportation would participate in a review of the Nunavut Land Use Plan, with considerations to its impact on the road project. “Information published by his department indicates that the Kivalliq Intercommunity Road initiative is currently taking into account the proposed new Nunavut Land Use Plan,” said Simailak, referring to Minister of Economic Development and Transportation David Akeeagok in the legislative assembly Wednesday, Nov. 1. “It is my understanding that the proposed new Nunavut Land Use Plan will impact such issues as the route options for the intercommunity road. It sounds to me a lot like it could even have major effects to the idea of actually trying to build this road, which is concerning for me.” He referred to the Nunavut Planning Commission’s 2023 submission of the Recommended Nunavut Land Use Plan to the federal minister of Northern Affairs, territorial minister of Environment and president of Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. “Can the Minister of Economic Development and Transportation clarify how his department is participating in the tripartite review of the draft Nunavut Land Use Plan?” asked Simailak. Akeeagok responded with assurances. “The land use plan touches on major developments, such as this road, all the roads that are being planned, or the fibre link,” said Akeeagok. “I want to assure the member that when our government is reviewing the draft land use plan, all of those will be taken into consideration. I work closely with my colleague who is taking the lead on this for the tripartite discussions that are taking place. Within our government, all of the government departments that are impacted do have

processes in place to provide input into this draft and provide recommendations to the minister that is going to be the signatory to the document.” Numbers don’t justify Rankin Inlet boarding home, according to minister An idea to move resources from a Churchill boarding home to one in Rankin Inlet received little support from the minister of Health Tuesday, Oct. 31. Arviat South MLA Joe Savikataaq asked for a comparison of numbers for people going through medical travel in Rankin Inlet compared to the boarding home in Churchill, Man. Minister of Health John Main responded through interpretation that the boarding home, named Iglualuk, is generally used for dental patients and its under-utilization is a concern but the dental work for children was important. “We need to keep providing dental services out of Churchill for surgical dental procedures,” said Main through interpretation. Savikataaq contended that the direct comparison by the numbers wasn’t answered. “I know that this is not the first time we have heard about Rankin Inlet wanting a health boarding home and the questions were posed to the Department of Health,” said Main through interpretation, adding that patients going through Rankin Inlet looked to be approximately three per day on average. “The average number for the medical travel into Rankin Inlet, and this is the result of very close monitoring in recent times, is a nightly average of three medical travellers,” said Main. He indicated that to set up a boarding home, the government would have to work with Indigenous Services Canada and prove the demand. “I’m not sure what the member would like me to say, might like my staff to say, when we can quote an average nightly need for three rooms,” said Main. “What’s going to happen and what has happened is we are told to use hotels. That’s what we

use in Cambridge Bay. That’s what we use in Rankin Inlet. We have a very important duty to take care of medical travellers and that’s what we do and we make sure that they are taken care of from when they leave their home, when they go to their appointment and when they come back.” He went on to say there are other priorities in Nunavut. “We’re trying to deal with mental health,” said Main. “We’re trying to deal with public health, tuberculosis. We’re trying to deal with many different things. If the member would like a boarding home in Rankin Inlet to be a priority, perhaps the member should suggest something that we should take off of our list to make room to address this need that is perceived.” Savikataaq responded that his suggestion would be to shut down the Churchill boarding home and move it or establish one in Rankin Inlet. “I believe the boarding home in Churchill is underutilized and the minister has stated that it’s only used for dental travel,” said Savikataaq. “I don’t know if there are three patients per night in Churchill where the government is operating a boarding home. If the numbers are the reason they can’t build a boarding home for my constituents for travel purposes when there are travel complications, the minister wanted suggestions, then I’ll ask the minister: will the minister shut down the Churchill boarding home in place of building one in Rankin Inlet?” Main reiterated that shutting down the Churchill boarding home would impact important work on the backlog of pediatric dental surgery. “These are children with very serious dental issues and so I don’t think that shutting down a boarding home would be a good idea,” said Main. “We are concerned with the underutilization of the Churchill boarding home and we are examining options with regard to the Churchill boarding home.” He acknowledged that if the boarding home in the Manitoba community is underutilized, “We have to look at options.”

Council now fully formed for new term By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative Rankin Inlet

More people submitted their names to fill the eighth seat on Rankin Inlet’s hamlet council than ran for council in the election, leaving those acclaimed to vote by secret ballot among the applicants to fill the last chair. Council chose Harry Niakrok Sr. for the final position, earning a clear

majority among a field that included Troy Rauhala, Scott Sadler, Joe Strickland, Kevin Sanguin, Cecilia Ayaruak, Bobby Oolooyuk, John Qatiktalik Ell and Bernard Krako. Niakrok joins the acclaimed council for the new term, with Harry Towtongie re-elected as mayor. “Rankin is a growing community, and it’s growing really fast,” said Niakrok Sr. after being sworn in Monday, Nov. 6. “It’s growing so fast, in fact, we have shortages of lots for build-

ings for houses, for apartments. I’d like to see development done in a responsible way – i.e., lots in the proper places, not just all over the place.” He’d also like to see the community benefit as much as possible from the Meliadine gold mine. With no political history beforehand – sans a stint on student council – Niakrok said he applied for the position because he felt he had something to offer council, by means of connecting with com-

munity members and being their spokesperson in the hamlet chambers, hopefully effecting change for the better. Niakrok works as regional coordinator for Nunavut Parks and Special Places and has spent most of his life in Rankin Inlet, besides two decades in Arviat. “I feel very humbled and appreciative of being selected to be on council,” said Niakrok. “I’ll certainly do my best to represent the people and the community.”

A thank-you to Calm Air From Joe Savikataaq Jr. Mayor of Arviat

I would like to bring to everyone’s attention as to how lucky we are to have Calm Air serving us here in the Kivalliq region. They support many initiatives by donating tickets and other forms of support to many causes. It is because of Calm Air we receive our freight, food, medical supplies and all online orders with the ever-increasing Amazon orders. When there are sporting events, Calm Air steps up and gives discounts. I have seen firsthand when it involves youth sports that fares are reduced for our youth. We also get to benefit from the pivut fare, with no limit as to how many flights per year one flies and no change fees if you would decide to change your flight, and we get to have three pieces of luggage at no extra cost.

Another great example is the beneficiary rate for air cargo on Calm Air, it applies to all goods shipped. When there are flights cancelled due to weather, we see make up flights so that medical travellers can get to their destination and to make sure all passengers and freight are moving. All of the above are still happening despite the new Transport Canada rules of limiting the duty time of our essential pilots. There have been times, very few in between, that we see issues arise and it is out of Calm Air’s hands as they must adhere to the regulations. It is not debatable to go against the regulations. Do we see that kind of service in the rest of our territory? Ask any person who has travelled outside of the Kivalliq in Nunavut how it is and then you will realize how lucky we are to have Calm Air flying for us. Will any other Northern

Full force for Remembrance Day

Rankin Inlet ceremony to honour those who defend Canada By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative Rankin Inlet

Mark Wyatt, president of Rankin Inlet’s Royal Canadian Legion Branch #169, has been involved in Remembrance Day ceremonies pretty much since he moved to the community. “I think it should be important to all Canadians,” he said ahead of the 2023 ceremony, scheduled for doors to open at 10:30 a.m. and the event to begin at 11 a.m. at the community hall Saturday, Nov. 11. “Remembrance Day is a time when we remember people who fought and lost their lives to support Canada. Especially with the way the

world is going now, we’ve got forces that are in peacekeeping missions where people are still killed. War is never going to go away, unfortunately.” He said the Canadian Rangers would be participating this year, and the event is expected to be a bit more “full force” without any Covid precautions. The annual event typically sees speeches, a moment of remembrance and laying of wreaths in honour of those who have fallen defending Canada. Photos on this page show scenes from the 2022 ceremony.

4 moving November 11 traditions Held each year on November 11, Remembrance Day is an opportunity to pay tribute to the men and women who fought on behalf of Canada to defend its values of freedom. On this solemn day, several commemorative events take place from coast to coast. Here are some of the moving traditions associated with these gatherings. 1. Reading the Ode of Remembrance. This is an excerpt from Laurence Binyon’s poem For the Fallen. Full of sadness and gratitude, this moving text was written in 1914 following the deaths of thousands of young soldiers. 2. Minutes of silence. At 11 a.m. on Remembrance Day, the public is invited to stand in silence for two minutes and pay tribute to the courage of those who have served and are still serving.

3. Laying wreaths. In many cities and municipalities, it’s customary to place wreaths at the foot of veteran memorials. The flowers used have different meanings, such as gratitude, hope and resistance. Tulips, forget-me-nots and daisies are popular choices. 4. Wearing poppies. Since 1921, the poppy has been a national symbol of Remembrance Day. It’s also the symbol of the Royal Canadian Legion’s Poppy Campaign, which raises funds to support veterans and their families. Wearing the poppy on November 11 is a gesture of solidarity and respect. November 11 is full of songs, bagpipes, cannon fire and parades. Discover other Remembrance Day traditions by participating in the commemorative activities in your area.

On November 11, take a moment to reflect on the bravery and sacrifice of those who have served the True North Strong and Free. Today, we remember you.

Grand prize for Baker Lake filmmaker

Daniel Tapatai earns trip to Banff in student video contest By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative Baker Lake

“I love nature,” narrates Daniel Tapatai, as a scene opens of the 17-year-old Baker Laker preparing his camera gear out on the land this fall. “I love going out on the tundra, taking my camera, taking pictures, videos and showcasing some parts of Nunavut. There’s a lot of unexplored land that you can go and explore.” That was the intro to his submission for the 2023 Take Me Outside student video contest. The narration transitions from shots of Tapatai to drone footage of eagles, muskox, fish and Baker Lake scenery. The three-minute video took him months to compile footage for, plus a couple days of editing it together. For his efforts, Tapatai won the grand prize and first place in the Grade 7-12 category of the competition, earning him a three-day, all-expense-paid trip to Banff, Alta., with his work shown on the Take Me Outside Face-

book page. He also earned a gift card from Mountain Equipment Company and had his film highlighted as part of the Banff Mountain Book and Film Festival on Nov. 4. “Being grand prize winner feels great,” said Tapatai to Kivalliq News while he was en-route to Banff. “I still can’t believe that I won. Also being the first grand prize winner from Nunavut is mind blowing, I feel very happy for myself.” On the first day of his trip, he told Kivalliq News he was having a lot of fun, “pretty much walked the whole town” and saw deer. Tapatai, 17, has long been pursuing a career in filmmaking and multimedia production. The Baker Laker often photographs community events and takes on video jobs. He told Kivalliq News his future goals involve potentially becoming a travelling adventure photographer and videographer. The other top winner in the contest went to students from Nakoda Elementary in Mînî Thnî, Alberta.

Josh Tartak’s electrical business seeing tons of interest By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative Rankin Inlet

When Josh Tartak incorporated his electrical business this summer, he was in Winnipeg waiting for the birth of his son. Since then, the 28-year-old, born and raised in Rankin Inlet, has had a busy life. “It’s been amazing how much work has come to me since I started,” said Tartak, a Red Seal electrician and father to a fourmonth-old and two-year-old, who opened his business Nunavut Electric Ltd. in June. He was talking to Kivalliq News after returning from a job in Coral Harbour. He’s also done work for the Hamlet of Rankin Inlet, Sakku Properties, homeowners in town and assisted with Nunavut Arctic College’s house build, where he instructed students on electrical work. “It was a challenge trying to oversee 14 students brand new to construction,” said Tartak, adding they were all eager and picked it up quickly. Between family and work, he’s loaded with responsibility now, but that wasn’t his original idea. “I had this whole plan when I was a kid,” said Tartak about getting a secure job with government. He originally wanted to be a carpenter, until a career day in high school inspired him to follow in his older brother’s footsteps as an electrician. “That was the whole reason why I became an electrician,” he said. “Ever since that day, it switched me over from wanting to be a carpenter to being an electrician.” He started as an apprentice and eventually earned his Red Seal certificate. After working for government and in the private sector, Tartak decided to pursue his own venture with Nunavut Electric Ltd. “It has a little bit of everything,” said Tartak about electrical work. “You really have to use your head when it comes to planning out and implementing an electrical system. You get a good mix of both worlds, whether you like working with your hands or using your head.” Since opening his business, he’s had “tons and tons” of work. “The field work is what I’ve expected it to be, but the special challenge for running a small start-up company like this is all the paperwork, all the accounting,” he said. “It’s very important to stay on top of that.” Scheduling has been another learning curve. Tartak takes pride in his work and is aware the buck stops with him now when it comes to his final products. “Working by yourself, you’re bound to your own workmanship,” he said. “You have no safety net. Everything’s on you. What you put up is your work.” He was especially thankful to his parents and partner for supporting him.

Josh Tartak, founder of Nunavut Electric Ltd., is balancing a boat load of work and two young children. Stewart Burnett/NNSL photo “They are the biggest help,” said Tartak. “I wouldn’t be able to do any of this without them.” Tartak wants to send a message that Inuit are capable. “There’s so much potential out there, lots of hidden potential,” he said, adding that he wants to give young Inuit the same opportunities he had. “We are able to do all this by ourselves. We will get to that point where Nuanvut’s a lot more self-sustaining and we won’t need any fly-in contractors, for the most part.” For anyone interested in pursuing a similar path, Tartak said it’s very rewarding and only takes four years, and once you’re certified, “no one can take that away from you. You’ll be set for life for work.” Continued on Page A11

Every child deserves access to services that they need.

Letters to the Editor Letters to the editor are welcomed by Kivalliq News, especially new contributors. We attempt to publish a crosssection of public opinion. Not all letters will necessarily be published. Preference is given to short letters of broad interest or concern. Letters of over 200 words, open letters and those published elsewhere are seldom used. We reserve the right to publish excerpts, to edit for length or taste and to eliminate inaccurate or libelous statements. We may also choose to use a letter as the basis for a story. All letters submitted must be signed with a return address and daytime phone number. Opinions expressed in letters and by columnists are those of the author and are not necessarily shared by the editor or publisher.
