Smoke precautions advised Nunavut

The Department of Health is reminding Nunavummiut in a news release that wildfires remain active across the country, including in the territories. In addition to the location of the fires, other factors such as wind direction and speed can influence which communities may experience wildfire smoke, stated the government, adding that conditions can also change quickly.

“Smoke exposure can irritate your eyes, make breathing more difficult and worsen chronic heart and lung diseases,” wrote the government in the news release. “People at risk of more health impacts include Elders, pregnant women, children and people with pre-existing respiratory and heart conditions. You can reduce your exposure to smoke by avoiding strenuous outdoor activities and staying indoors with windows and doors closed.”

To protect indoor air quality, the government advises staying inside and keeping windows closed, using fans to stay cool, not burning candles and limiting the use of exhaust fans when not cooking.

Reporting illnesses in harvested animals

Towtongie, Pizzo-Lyall square off for mayor

Harry Towtongie is running again for a second term as mayor of Rankin Inlet. He says he has unfinished business in guiding the hamlet. Stewart Burnett/NNSL

‘Unfinished business’ for incumbent while newcomer eager to see progress

Though council is acclaimed with seven members, Rankin Inlet has two candidates for mayor in the Oct. 23 municipal election.

the work that we do at the council level, whether it was with the Iqaluit council and now the Rankin Inlet council, and there’s still work to be done.”

That work includes the upgrades to Rankin’s utilidor and water infrastructure, the Nunavut 3,000 housing pursuit, and she’s especially vocal about mental health and addictions programming.

Nunavut

The Government of Nunavut is asking harvesters to report any illnesses they find in animals.

“If you observe any wildlife acting sick or strange, or notice disease or illness within harvested animals, please notify your local conservation officer,” wrote the government in a news release. “The Department of Environment encourages and thanks hunters who provide samples for testing.”

The department has also developed a Nunavut Harvester Safety Guide. Copies of the guide have been sent to every Hunter’s and Trapper’s Organization and wildlife office in Nunavut.

Agreements formed on ending gender-based violence

Nunavut

The Government of Canada combined with the Government of Nunavut to announce up to $17 million to help victims and survivors of gender-based violence in a news release Sept. 29.

The federal government will be investing up to $16.4 million over four years to support the implementation of the National Action Plan to End Gender-based Violence in Nunavut. This investment will support the Government of Nunavut to create and enhance programs and supports for survivors of gender-based violence and their families. It will also increase knowledge and awareness among frontline service providers, women and girls, men and boys, and children and youth, according to the government.

“This will be accomplished through awareness campaigns, workshops and knowledge sharing aimed at understanding the root causes, warning signs and impacts of gender-based violence and ways to prevent it,” states the news release.

The Government of Canada will be also investing $500,000 to support crisis hotlines in Nunavut to offer more robust services, resources and supports to serve the needs of those experiencing gender-based violence and their families. This announcement marks the last of 13 agreements with provincial and territorial governments to support crisis lines across the country.

Incumbent mayor Harry Towtongie is running to hold his spot, citing unfinished business regarding the landfill as his main motivation.

“I’m not done dealing with the landfill,” he told Kivalliq News, saying that it has been a goal of his to tackle for a long time, but the hamlet has been sidetracked with the pandemic and challenges related to the beer and wine store. “It hurt me so much to see the land being damaged so much by our landfill, but we never had a chance to really deal with it.”

He’d like to see more equipment brought in to cut down on the waste and pollution stemming from the dump site.

“It’s out of control,” said Towtongie. “It’s a badly contaminated area. It’s an environmental disaster right now.”

He admitted to feeling burnt out at times during the last term, but when it came time to submit his candidacy, many Elders, youth and people of all stripes encouraged him to run again.

“I don’t know if I can make four years but I’m going to try,” said Towtongie. “I’m getting older. I can’t really work with my hands anymore, can’t do too much. At least I can maybe help this community grow some more or be a better place.”

Pizzo-Lyall has been on Rankin Inlet council coming on two years, with previous experience on Iqaluit’s city council. She is currently manager of operations at Atuqtuarvik Corporation and also ran for the Liberal Party in the 2019 federal election.

“In the last 10 to 15 years, I’ve been active in different roles within different organizations,” said Pizzo-Lyall. “I really enjoy

Megan Pizzo-Lyall, running for mayor, says Rankin Inlet deserves a strong leader. Stewart Burnett/NNSL photo

“I want to make sure that we’re strong in the communication area,” said Pizzo-Lyall, adding that she would plan to update the community regularly about hamlet pursuits to keep residents informed.

Towtongie said win or lose, he’ll be happy.

“I’ll support whoever gets in,” he said, adding that he’s glad Pizzo-Lyall is running.

“She’s very enthusiastic and really has lots of energy.” Pizzo-Lyall would likely agree with that description.

“Something that I’ve been known for at council is being very vocal and very pushy to make sure that we’re advocating as much as we can,” she said. “I feel like when we all decide we want something, that I’m the kind of person that’s going to go out and help us achieve it.”

She said Towtongie has done a great job in the two years she’s been on council and that he’s a strong businessperson with a vision for Rankin Inlet.

“Rankin inlet is such a strong community,” said Pizzo-Lyall. “We deserve that kind of coverage. We deserve a strong leader that’s going to make sure things get done for Rankin Inlet.”

Towtongie thanked the outgoing council members.

“They did a big job,” he said about the last council. “They did a lot of work. Everybody has their own ways and different opinions but they were very good and a very bang-on council. I couldn’t have done almost anything without a good council.”

The municipal election will be held Oct. 23.

Trade show brings delegates together

The 2023 Kivalliq Trade Show celebrated women in business as its theme this year, bringing in keynote speaker Nikki Komaksiutiksak amid an array of panels, presentations and more in Rankin Inlet Sept. 25–27.

Delegates from companies, governments and organizations operating in the Arctic spent three days connecting, while a public entertainment night, art market and trade show floor attracted local residents.

Liquor limits lowered Hamlet’s lobbying brings first domino of change for beer and wine challenges

After several months, Rankin Inlet’s hamlet council achieved a noticeable change in the beer and wine store: the daily purchase limits were reduced in September to 12 beers per day, two bottles of wine or six beers and one bottle of wine.

The Department of Finance told Kivalliq News the new limits were reduced at the recommendation of Rankin Inlet’s council from their motion in July.

When Rankin Inlet RCMP Sgt. Patrick Frenette addressed council at its Sept. 25 meeting, the changes were too fresh to account for in statistics just yet.

“I’m not sure if it’s going to put a huge dent in our statistics,” said Frenette, adding it’s important to start somewhere.

He noted that a fair amount of the impact of the store is not captured in RCMP statistics and instead is seen in the health centre and among mental health workers in the community.

As for August, RCMP stats were up again overall, with prisoners up to 89, marking a 68 per cent increase from the same period in 2022.

“That concerns me a bit, because members do try their best to try and not incarcerate individuals,” said Frenette.

That directive is for a number of reasons, but mainly because of the limited room in Rankin Inlet’s cell block.

“Some evenings we’ll have up to 16 prisoners,” said Frenette.

Council discussed the number of calls to the RCMP and how often members are responding to the same people versus new cases. As councillors discussed bootlegging and the beer and wine store’s effect, Coun. Kelly Lindell said, “We need to figure out what we need to do to help this 10 per cent of our community to get better, and just taking away alcohol is not going to do that.”

Frenette said the RCMP is rather toothless to deal with bootlegging and it’s difficult to pursue. He agreed that Rankin Inlet needs more programs beyond a reduction in purchase limits at the store.

“I’m not happy with the stats that I have at the RCMP right now, but, that being said, I think we’re hopefully heading in the

right direction slowly,” said Frenette. “I think we’re getting there. It’s just not going to happen in two days.”

As RCMP Const. Matt Hope was in the gallery and became the subject of conversation among councillors for his community engagement efforts, Mayor Harry Towtongie quipped, “We’re in a mess right now, but we have Hope.”

Not impressed with acclamation

Coun. Chris Eccles will be returning to council in the new term, as he and six other candidates have been acclaimed in a municipal election that sees no competition for councillors.

He expressed his disappointment about that.

“Little bit disappointed of the people leaving because it’s been enjoyable to work with them, but even more disappointed with the lack of people that actually put their name in to try and run,” he said in comments toward the end of the Sept. 25 meeting. “We have a lot of Facebook warriors out there that love to complain about things but (it) seems they’re not the ones wanting to help fix the problems too.” Eccles will be forming the next hamlet council with Michael Shouldice, Martha Hickes, Daniel Kowmuk, Levi Curley, David Kakuktinniq Jr. and Art Sateana.

NNSL Media news editors collect the latest news and photos readers want to see — police & court stories; what hamlets, town halls and schools are doing; big and small government; sports, arts, business and community heroes.

NNSL Media gathers the news, and streams it along all our Northern digital information rivers and trails — nnsl.com, nunavutnews. com, five Facebook Pages, one Instagram feed and a Twitter feed — where it all lands in our newspapers. We do the same with our advertisers — Northern businesses and governments — getting their information to the widest possible audience, online and offline, across the NWT and Nunavut.
