News Briefs Savanna Pikuyak scholarship open
Nunavut The Department of Health is now accepting applications for the Savanna Pikuyak Scholarship for Nunavut Inuit enrolled in the prehealth 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.
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.”

This winter, 17 youth in Baker Lake will learn traditional hunting knowledge through the Young Hunters Program. According to instructor John Etegoyok, “We teach them everything from scratch… teaching as we go — and they’re learning.” Along with fellow instructor Peter Tiktaalaaq, a typical day consists of a group of about six youths who head out until about 4 p.m. for “some travelling looking for caribou, and when we’re not hunting, we’re fishing,” said Etegoyok. Thanks to donations from the Baker Lake Sanavik Co-op, and the Climate Change and Health Adaptation Program (CCHAP), as well as Climate Change Preparedness in the North (CCPN), youths aged 10-15 will be beneficiaries of a 10-week program designed to teach them necessary hunting and survival skills. The program is also partnered with Articonnexion, based out of Quebec, whose mission is to “support, through mentorship and knowledge sharing, Indigenous communities in the development of local competencies and leadership for research and applications promoting community well-being.” A recent Facebook post puts it more simply: ”They develop new hunting skills and managed to harvest tuktuit (caribou) for their family and the community!” The post is accompanied by photos of the successful hunt. According to Veronique Perez, Articonnexion’s coordinator, the Baker Lake Hunters and Trappers Organization has been working with her organization for a couple of years through other programs, but “wanted a bigger role in the community.” It was then that the Baker Lake Sanavik Coop thought to secure funds for the program through the various organizations. Articonnexion’s role is to help with the material, structure and management items. “John (Etegoyok) has been working with us for a long time… he’s very good with kids,” said Perez. Etegoyok’s added that the “students are enjoying the program, are very happy and are learning some things.”

Inuvialuk artist designs sealskin poppy for Juno Beach Centre in France Poppy will feature in new art installation, which commemorates Canada’s contributes in WWII By Tom Taylor Local Journalism Initiative

The Juno Beach Centre (JBC) in Normandy, France, which commemorates Canada’s contribution in the Second World War, is currently in the midst of a $1.25 million renewal of its Faces of Canada Today permanent exhibition space. When renovations conclude, the space will feature a new art installation featuring poppies created by three Indigenous Canadian artists, including respected Inuvialuk artist Inuk. “It’s kind of surreal, and it’s kind of epic, and it’s kind of humbling, and I’m also honoured to have been asked,” Inuk said from her home in Yellowknife, one day after plans for the new art installation were unveiled. “There’s still lots of emotions coming.” The new art installation will be open in time for the 80th anniversary of D-Day on June 6, 2024. It will depict a poppy, made of 3,000 smaller poppies, including those made by Inuk. She was contacted about the project on social media, and had many questions about the details, but ultimately accepted the offer after imagining how Canada’s Indigenous veterans would feel to see the new installation. “[JBC] really loved what I stand for, like MMIW (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women), and bringing attention to Orange Shirt Day, and Indian and residential schools, domestic health and mental health,” she said. “I really had to think about it because it’s not something to take lightly, but I couldn’t help but say yes.” Inuk was joined on the project by Marissa Magneson of the Métis Nation of Ontario, and Crystal Gloade, a Mi’kmaq art-
ist from Millbrook First Nation in Nova Scotia. All three artists were allowed to choose their preferred medium for the project. Magneson worked with beads while Gloade chose to work with birch bark and porcupine quills. Inuk selected sealskin, which she dyed red and combined with leather and buttons to make her poppies. She has been working with sealskin and similar animal products since she was a child. “This runs in my family for generations,” she said. “I was born as a caribou hair tufter.” When asked what’s next for her art career, Inuk said she expects the same question from her parents in Hay River, but is content to focus on the current moment before she starts thinking about her next project. “If you’re a true artist, you always have a poker in the fire,” she said. “For now I’m going to enjoy this. What a great honour that they unveiled [the poppies] on Indigenous Veterans Day.” Inuk wasn’t aware that her poppies would be revealed on Indigenous Veterans Day, but said that made the whole experience “extra special.” “I’ve been blessed to travel around the world to many different places, and I know that Canada isn’t a perfect place, but it is our country, and we have to reconcile,” she said when asked about the significance of the day. “We need to reconcile with our past, but also learn and remember not only everybody that lost their lives, but our Inuit and Indigenous people that also served.” “I have one foot in the old world and one foot in the new world. As I get older, it’s all about learning and growing and reconciliation.”

Legislative assembly briefs: Minimum wage to rise to $19; Kivalliq road network update By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative
As of 2024, Nunavut minimum wage 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. Ten students earn parks awards Ten high school students were announced as recipients of the 2022-2023 Nunavut Territorial Parks Awards on Nov. 3. In highlighting the awards, Environment Minister Daniel Qavvik, noted that each comes with a $500 grant and is presented to students who demonstrate “academic excellence in courses such as Aulajaaqtut or environmental studies and have demonstrated our government’s Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit principle of Avatittinnik Kamatsiarniq — respect and care for our environment.” Qavvik said the awards are part of “a commitment stemming from the Nunavut Territorial Parks Inuit Impact and Benefits Agreement” and that the Department of the Environment remained committed to encouraging aspiring professional environmentalists. The 2022-23 Nunavut Territorial Award recipients are: -Tori Evalik of Cambridge Bay -Paul MacDonald of Kugluktuk -Dishita Rana of Rankin Inlet -Ryan Stanley Arreak of Clyde River -James Qaunaq of Grise Fiord -Benjamin Alivaktuk of Pangnirtung -Ayla Marie Mickiyuk of Sanikiluaq -Cassidy Devereaux in Iqaluit -Adam Judea in Kimmirut -Manumikalla Ashevak in Kinngait Qavvik also remarked that “our territorial parks are unique. We, as Nunavummiut, take pride in our land and pass on our teachings of the importance of protecting, sharing, and enjoying our parks.” Kivalliq road project rolls on 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
Monday, November 13, 2023 A5
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 constit-

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.” -With files from Kira Wronska Dorward, Local Journalism Initiative reporter

Education minister commits to review of post-secondary funding
Iqaluit MLA concerned Inuit regional associations unable to meet growing demand; GN introduces new wellness benefit of $500 per semester By Kira Wronska Dorward Local Journalism Initiative
Recent media coverage featuring Kivilliq Inuit Association President Kono Tattuinee indicated that funding requests from Inuit students have almost tripled since 2020. Iqaluit-Tasiluk MLA George Hickes asked Education Minister Pamela Gross to confirm whether her department has seen similar increases in funding requests. “I do know that those numbers have been rising and post-Covid they have been rising as well,” said Gross. Hickes then spoke about regional Inuit organizations and their programs to support post-secondary students. According to a recent media article that he cited, the Inuit organizations “have been denying (some) students due to a lack of funds. It was stated that their funds that they receive come from the federal government, and
then Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated. Is the Department of Education looking at accessing these federal funds so that they can leverage Government of Nunavut funds to make sure no student goes underserved?” Gross responded that her department works closely with Inuit counterparts “in collaboration and discussions on post-secondary funding at the staff level. They are aware of initiatives within the Inuit organizations of how the department does see that students receive Financial Assistance for Nunavut Students (FANS) as well as top-ups, for example, from Kakivak or the Kitikmeot Inuit Association or our Kivalliq region as well, to support the students in school. I can’t stress enough how much those top-ups and extra support are very much appreciated for students. “We are looking into ways to enhance the program and enhance specific areas with regard to supporting students’ needs,” the Education minister added. “With the comprehensive review,
I look forward to bringing forward that process through… “I will say that with the federal funding that is out there, the more funding that supports the department for students is always appreciated. Right now, that funding goes to our regional Inuit associations, but if there are ways and avenues through bilateral agreements or anything that will support Government of Nunavut students, we do look forward to that, if that is a possibility. I will talk to my colleagues about that.” Gross concluded, “With the comprehensive review we have reached out to our stakeholders, including all of the RIAs (regional Inuit associations) and we’re speaking to them about challenges and successes with post-secondary funding. With that comprehensive review coming forward and with the recommendations, there are specific recommendations and support that we do hope to enhance. With that, Mr. Speaker, I can say that we will have a piece in there to talk about
that support and ways that we can enhance that. I look forward to giving that information to, not just our members, but to all Nunavummiut in the future that we do want to see increased support for post-secondary.” On Nov. 6, Gross updated her colleagues with the following statement: “A dedicated project team made up of government officials and Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated representatives have worked collaboratively on this (education funding) review. We all know this review is a significant undertaking that has been well overdue. While this important work is ongoing, we are making adjustments and taking interim measures to improve the program… today, I am excited to announce the Department of Education is supporting Nunavut Inuit FANS recipients with a new wellness benefit of $500 per semester. “I look forward to sharing updates on the re-envisioning of the FANS program with my colleagues and all Nunavummiut as we move forward.”
Tuberculosis outbreaks continue to affect Naujaat, Pond Inlet By Kira Wronska Dorward Local Journalism Initiative
The Nunavut Department of Health is advising of ongoing outbreaks of tuberculosis (TB) in Naujaat and Pond Inlet. Fourteen active TB cases have been detected in Naujaat since May 16. There are another 63 latent cases on file. Ten people have been diagnosed with active
TB in Pond Inlet since March 17, and 98 latent cases are also known to exist. Community members who have been exposed to an active TB case — or who have symptoms of the disease, which often attacks the lungs — are being advised to visit the nearest community health centre for screening. The following are symptoms of active TB: -a cough that lasts longer than three weeks
-feeling very tired -loss of appetite -a fever or night sweats Anyone with these symptoms should go to the health centre as soon as possible for screening, the Department of Health urges. TB is a treatable disease with medications available within the communities. Latent TB is not contagious but needs to be treated to prevent it from becoming active.
The Department of Health assured that it will continue to provide support and resources to the community to ensure access to adequate testing, education, treatment and support. Those with questions are asked to contact their local health centre. To learn more about TB and treatments, please visit the Government of Nunavut website.

“I love nature,” narrates Daniel Tapatai, as a scene opens of the 17-year-old Baker Lake resident 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, allexpense-paid trip to Banff, Alta., with his work shown on the Take Me Outside Facebook 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 said his future goals involve potentially becoming a travelling adventure photographer and videographer.

What a beautiful time of year when the land and sea is covered in beautiful white snow, as the ocean and lakes freeze up for the winter season, it is time to begin sewing and carving. The freeze up seems to be late this year, as we witness the climate changes that are happening on our land. Weather has changed so much, as our Elders speak, but cannot do anything about it but just go day by day and adjust to the changes. Back in the old days, there was no
calendars our ancestors used, they related so much on the weather, it was their daily time and calendar, looking at the skies, the ocean, land, seasons,
CAMBRIDGE BAY TEA TALK with Navalik Tologanak email: helent@qiniq.com
and mostly relied on the stars, moon and temperatures of the outdoors. This time of year during freeze up, they would know not to travel on the ocean to harvest for food. But ice fishing, seal hunting and setting fish nets, this time of year also the caribou was the best time to hunt them because they have so much fat on them. We Inuinnait were so much the caribou people. If you see old photographs of our ancestors, they were all wearing caribou clothing. Clothing made back then I find was so unique and the designs are treasured to this day to honour our ancestors. Each area where Inuit lived you can see the different styles of clothing and footwear. It is most beautiful and still used to this day. Our Elders know the patterns and how to sew them, so the traditional clothing is still made and used to this day. With many new day modern lifestyles and easy access to purchase fabric and material, it is important to keep the style and pattern as unique as possible when making clothing. This is why we must keep alive the culture, language, traditions alive by teaching and learning from our Elders. It is so good to see teachings and courses being put on in the north teaching the younger generations how to sew and make clothing. Today we see so much beauty and honour everyone wearing kammak, atigiit in contemporary store bought materials. Making and producing hunting gear is still in full swing it is so beautiful, today you see many hunters and families using caribou, sealskin, and other fur. Inuit are so creative. Let us keep up the teachings and patterns of our ancestors.

I was one who was sent to residential school and never did learn how to sew but once we were back home, that is when we watch our mothers and grandmothers and those in our camps and villages making outdoor wear. Today there is funding available to bring and hold courses in our communities and now today we see many organizations and communities offering much needed courses/classes to make and produce Inuit style clothing and footwear and art. I myself have been in Edmonton for personal reasons, and was able to pop into the Elders gathering that was recently held end of October. Approximately 5,000 were in attendance on a busy day. Elders and youth attended from all across Canada from each of their treaties. I noticed only the Yukon First Nations were the only delegation that brought youth delegation with them. One of their Elders said they brought their youth representatives with them so the youth can learn
and observe about what Elders meet and what are the issues today. It is to teach them how to be an Elder and how to learn from their storytelling and how to be an Elder in today’s society which is so different from our ancestors who lived a very traditional lifestyle but still keep the values with them. This is what Inuit do also, teaching the youth traditions and culture. Some topics discussed at the Elders gathering were truth and reconciliation, climate change, language, culture, health and wellness, and of course the performance of music, special ceremonies, the vendors who had many tables set up to sell crafts. Talk about crafts, so many different beautiful items to purchase or just to look at. To be proud of being Indigenous. Take good care everyone, stay well, remember to keep up with your health and to look after yourselves, that darn virus is still around. Look after one another. God Be With You Son, Your Son and Granddaughter are amazing.

Iqaluit will host to a “transformative” conference and the Nunavut Association of Municipalities’s annual general meeting from Nov. 27-30. The four-day conference, to be held in the Aqsarniit Conference Centre, will mark the first gathering of newly-elected mayors from the territory’s municipalities. “This year’s captivating theme, Northern Lights, encapsulates the spirit of unity, innovation and a collective vision for a prosperous future across all municipalities in Nunavut… ushering in the potential for dynamic leadership and strategic visioning. The assembly will be instrumental in establishing NAM’s new board of directors and cementing the strategic direction of the organization,” reads a press release in anticipation of the event. Topics for discussion will include climate change and housing initiatives “as so much of the impact is being felt at the community level.” A “constellation” of honoured guest speakers are on the roster for the event, including Premier P.J. Akeeagok, NTI President Aluki Kotierk, and Minister of Community and Government Services David
Joanasie. An assortment of other professionals will also be present to “foster an environment of learning and collaboration.” “It is very heavy on professional development this year with all of our new mayors,” commented NAM executive director Marla Limousin. “Delegates will engage in enriching sessions designed around NAM’s core pillars: advocacy, col-
laboration and capacity building. These sessions aim to fortify the municipalities with the essential tools, knowledge, and networks necessary to navigate the complexities of governance and administration effectively,” the organization’s news release reads. “Our goal is that the 25 municipalities of Nunavut have the tools to create healthy, safe and sustainable communities that grow, are resilient, and are successful.”

Part toolkit, Mind over Matter highlights the need for communication Northern News Services
I’ve said on-record that All the Way by Jordin Tootoo would be my desert island book. If I was stranded on an island in the middle of nowhere with one book from the over seventy-five that I have reviewed for the Yellowknifer, I would pick Tootoo’s memoir because I know that I can read that book at any point in my life and learn something new and vital from it. Mind Over Matter: HardWon Battles on the Road to Hope, Tootoo’s second book, carries that torch. Tootoo continues to share his life on the page with blunt honesty and an astonishing depth of feeling, a trait he partially contributes to his collaborator, Stephen Brunt. Tootoo’s first book All the Way: My Life on Ice was, like it said on the tin, largely about hockey, Tootoo’s role in it, and his journey to being the first Inuk player in the NHL. Mind over Matter opens the floodgates. This book has everything, from hockey to family to life lessons, and even a story about being a peewee hockey player in a tournament in Yellowknife. As always, there is a specific kind of joy gained when reading about the places and people you’re familiar with, which is why I love reading books by people from the Territories. I just about cried when Tootoo highlighted a letter he received from a young Indigenous girl in
hockey who had written to him after reading his first book. Her words, as well as Tootoo’s own experiences, explains how future-generation oriented Tootoo is, often repeating the sentiment put it towards the kids. Your time, your attention, your energy, your money, and your love. Tootoo also really champions resilience and mental toughness, and highlights the importance of counselling in gaining those qualities particularly as a man and an Indigenous person, both groups being ones that Tootoo states often seek less help professionally and interpersonally. This isolating effect is exacerbated in small communities and Indigenous communities, like Tootoo’s own hometown Rankin Inlet, where unspoken rules keep people from sharing what they experience at home and with their family publicly. He really reframes standing up to your family as standing up for your family, an act that is all about recognizing when change has to happen either on your end or theirs. Tootoo thanks Brunt, who co-authored both All the Way and Mind over Matter, within the body of this book and in his acknowledgements. I’ve already joked at this point about how many sports biographies I read as someone who doesn’t watch or play sports, and I have been finding that this Canadian sports journalist has an impressive bibliography himself. After working with Tootoo on All the Way, he has also contributed to Christine Sinclair and Bryan Trottier’s books, among
others, before joining Tootoo again for the hockey player’s second book. This book was inspiring, providing tools for recognizing alcoholism and abuse in yourself and others as well as a perspective of sobriety as an every-day commitment, rather than framing addiction as something solved by the abrupt and often traumatic experience of rehab. Part toolkit, Mind over Matter highlights the need for communication — how to put your experiences into words and not let social shame, family ties, or unspoken rules stop you from getting the help you need. This book also acknowledges that recognizing that you need help is a skill in-and-of-itself, one that we will continue to develop throughout our lives.

Reneltta Arluk weaves theatrical medicine with Shakespeare Elders invited to share stories with youth as Pawâkan Macbeth took form Northern News Services
Pawâkan Macbeth, adapted by Reneltta Arluk, and inspired by the youth of Frog Lake First Nation in northern Alberta, is Shakespeare not only taken over but transformed. Arluk’s adaptation of Macbeth, which toured various NWT communities in October, bridges timelines and casts light on the importance of love in times of challenge — a rousing rebel cries meant not to divide, but unify. “I was hired to go to the Frog Lake community to adapt the tempest” says Arluk, who is of Dene, Inuvialuit and Cree descent. “And I went like, ‘OK, I’ll do that, but I think it’s slightly problematic because Caliban is not the best character, and I don’t know how we could do that. So I started prepping anyways, but then I got an email from the drama teacher and he was like, ‘Well, we don’t really identify with The Tempest’ and I was like, ‘Oh that’s good.’ ‘But we do identify with Macbeth because we want to explore the Cannibal Spirit, Wihtiko, as Macbeth, to talk about greed,’ the drama teacher said, and then I went, ‘OK!’ “But, you know, there is so much connotation to Macbeth and so much connotation to the Cannibal Spirit, I just went, ‘Well, that’s just
a lot of energy for a three week residency.’ So, I thought, ‘Let’s meet with the Elders.’ So I invited Elders to meet with the students, and they’re working with Grade 6 to Grade 12 — and just to meet with them and to share stories that they know about the Cannibal Spirit. And there were two reasons for that: it was to let the Elders know what we were doing, in a non-direct way, and to see if that was something they wanted to do, to talk about the Cannibal Spirit? Because, you know, in some areas it feels like it’s something in the past, or that’s mythical, but in Treaty 6 territory, especially in Frog Lake, it’s a very real energy. “And so is it something in the past if it’s something that still feels present?” Asking and stating at the same time, Arluk pauses for a split second. “There’s parts, what I learned spending time there, there’s a Wihtiko Lake that’s people still don’t really camp there, and stuff like that. So I just wanted to be sure we were being respectful of the spirit, being respectful of the students, and really wanting to share knowledge.” “So, the Elders came and they had no problem — they were like, ‘Oh yes, sure, no problem, I’ll tell you all the stories.’”
We both laugh out loud, knowing the wisdom and strength of Elders often overshadowing the hype, fear or superstition of youth, “and they just started doing it, and it was beautiful, it was a story exchange between the Elders and the students. And the students were sharing stories with the Elders that they knew, and what you got out of it was this really powerful cosmology like, the students know their community and know their history and their culture.” Shakespeare and Arluk’s visions place a beautiful, powerful lens on the dangers of grief, greed, loss, hunger, pain, and the need in times of turmoil, as much as ever, for loving, courageous leadership.

The Light in NDEs didn’t cast anyone out
A12 Monday, November 13, 2023

In my last article I wrote about one of my favourite topics, Near Death Experiences, or NDEs. Here’s a quick recap: Years ago I found a book with the odd title Life After Life. It was written by Raymond Moody, M.D. The book was based on interviews with patients who had a heart attack, or had some other emergency, and died. But then the medical team brought them back to life. These patients reported some amazing stories when they were supposed to be out cold, Columnist completely unconscious. Dr. Moody was the first to call these reports ‘Near Death Experiences’. The experiencers (let’s call them NDEers) reported floating outside their bodies. From up above, they saw the doctors and nurses desperately trying to revive them and bring them back to life. They then went through some kind of ‘tunnel’ and met their deceased relatives on the other side. Many also reported seeing a “being of Light” that was indescribably beautiful, all-loving, and very comforting. They felt no fear. The peace they felt was

Nunavut News
beyond description. Some reported seeing their whole life flash before them. Dr. Moody noticed something amazing about these stories: they all sounded the same. And they did not seem to be hallucinations. The NDEers were from many different backgrounds and different cultures. They were male and female, black and white, Asian and Hispanic, young and old, rich and poor. Some were religious but others weren’t. They said they will “never fear death again.” Using slightly different words, they all seemed to be telling the same story about being at death’s door. Some called the Light an angel, and others said the Light was probably God. One NDEer asked the Light if it was God and the Light replied it was the “breath of God.” I was raised Catholic. As a child, God was very frightening. He was out to punish me. As a teenager, I thought for sure I was going to hell. Most of my friends were also going to hell. We drank, partied, and got high. Life was all about drugs, sex, and rock ‘n roll. I soon threw God out the window and I left the church.

I became an addict. Years later I went into recovery. I attended many 12-step meetings like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. In those programs, members were encouraged to believe in the “God of their understanding.” They called God their “higher power.” I had some difficulty because of the negative picture I had of God from my childhood. I had to get a new God. I began a long search through many different religions, beliefs, and traditions. I was looking for my higher power. I needed a God like the one in the NDEs who was more positive, more loving, and non-judgemental. But today, God is hard to find. He (or she) seems to be hiding somewhere. In modern times, many people have become so materialistic we doubt if a God even exists. There’s little room for a Creator in a shopping mall, or the big city with all the noise and traffic. My grandmother was Algonquin. The Algonquin people call God, “Gitchee Manitou.” The Native world was filled with powerful, supernatural spirits. Gitchee Manitou was the ‘Great Spirit’. There was mystery and everything meant something. God had other names in other religions. All cultures point to some kind of higher power, or Creator. Why is that? When I read Life After Life, a lightbulb went on in my head. The being of Light encountered by NDEers was very different. Maybe God is not all about anger, sin, punishment, and hell. In the words of one NDEer, “I felt unconditional love. I never
www.NunavutNews.com
felt love like that before… feelings of peace, tranquility, and safety… no one asked what religion I was, or if I believed in God. The love was truly unconditional.” Could that all-loving, being of Light really be God? I was taught you had to believe the right things and belong to the right church or God would cast you out. The Light in NDEs didn’t cast anyone out. My views started to change. My image of God started to heal. As I learned about a healthier, more positive God, I started to heal emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. I also learnt that the Creator was not just in church but also in nature, in the wind, trees, rivers and the many creatures living on the land. As I learned all this, my addiction lost its grip on me. I also started to lose interest in partying. Don’t get me wrong — I believe in celebrating life. But I no longer had to get totally wasted to laugh and have fun. But if God is so loving and non-judgemental, what about right and wrong? Certainly, there must be good and evil? Isn’t God a God of justice? Doesn’t he reward us if we do good? What happens if people go around hurting others? Shouldn’t they get punished? Do NDEs offer any answers to these questions? We will explore the question of judgement in my next article about NDEs. —Darrell Taylor is a retired mental health professional who has lived in the NWT and Nunavut for 20 years.

Ship traffic ramps up through the Northwest Passage as Arctic ice retreats ‘It’s happening at a crazy rate,’ says former chairman of the Canadian Polar Commission Michael Wenger still remembers the patches of blood red and vivid violet that daub the landscape of the Northwest Passage. “People usually think it’s ice and glaciers and rocks. And then you get there and you see these meadows, with all the different plants,” he said, speaking by phone from Reykjavik, Iceland, where he was attending an Arctic Circle Assembly conference. “It’s very colourful,” said Wenger, CEO of Polar Journal AG, who worked as an expedition guide on a northern cruise vessel in 2016. A growing number of people are now getting to witness those vibrant tundras first-hand. The same climate shifts that affect Arctic flora have also forced a massive retreat in Arctic sea ice — even in the passage, where geography and wind currents freeze the waters for a longer period of the year than in other parts of the Far North. “It’s happening at a crazy rate,” said Bernard Funston, former chairman of the Canadian Polar Commission. In step with the melt, more and more ships are sweeping across the Northwest Passage as a heating planet clears a path for boat traffic through the Arctic corridor, raising hopes for commercial viability as well as concerns about the environmental and social impact. Steeped in lore since before Roald Amundsen became the first European to fully chart it in 1906, the Northwest Passage runs 1,450 kilometres from east to west, threading an archipelago of islands between Baffin Bay and the Beaufort Sea via a half-dozen routes under a single name. Effectively off-limits to transcontinental shipping for centuries, the seaway hosted a bulk freighter from end to end for the first time in 2013. With a hull strengthened to withstand floating ice, the Nordic Orion that year hauled a load of metallurgical coal from Vancouver and across the Arctic coastline to Finland. The journey shaved 1,000 nautical miles from the traditional route through the Panama Canal and shipped 25 per cent more cargo due to the greater depth of the passage. The ramp-up since has been striking, with bulk carriers, fuel tankers, cruise liners and research expeditions leading the charge. The number of unique vessels operating in the Canadian Arctic rose 35 per cent to 212 between 2016 and 2022, according to figures provided by the international Arctic Council. Researchers say the Northwest Passage will likely never compete with trade arteries like the Panama Canal due to the inconsistent navigation season, lack of ports and still-hazardous conditions. But the diminishing ice, growth of northern resource development and more recently Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have already prompted more commercial vessels to travel the channels. “The season is getting longer and the ships are getting bigger,” said Hjalti Hreinsson, a project manager at the Arctic Council. Cruise liners are among the largest vessels venturing through. More noise, more pollution More ships carry the potential for more underwater noise, fuel pollution and invasive species, affecting communities and the environment in and around the passage. “The biodiversity of the area is being directly threatened not merely by the passage of mega ships but by proposed seismic testing and other activities that would follow,” Peter Ittinuar, the first Inuk member of Parliament, said in a 2017 paper, referring to oil and gas exploration. In Pond Inlet, locals told Wenger they used to hunt narwhal in a day or two. “Now they have to go out for five or six days before they even see a narwhal,” Wenger said. Noise-sensitive beluga and bowhead whales, essential to subsistence hunting traditions, also flee the sound of engines, while seals retreat in sync with the sea ice. The anxieties of shippers and residents can overlap. If boats are stranded or an accident occurs, the tiny shoreline towns are ill-equipped to handle an influx of rescuees or transform into staging grounds for a cleanup effort. In 2018, the Russian-flagged Akademik Ioffe research vessel
A researcher points out a possible sighting of wildlife aboard the Finnish icebreaker MSV Nordica as it traverses the Northwest Passage through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago on July 22, 2017. Alongside the melt, more and more ships are sweeping across the Northwest Passage as a heating planet clears a path for boat traffic through the Arctic corridor, raising hopes for commercial viability as well as concerns about the environmental and social impact. David Goldman/The Canadian Press
ran aground in the passage’s Gulf of Boothia with 162 people on board, prompting rescue by a pair of Canadian Coast Guard icebreakers — and reflection on the perils of the waterway. “The weather changes, it basically pushes ice right in front of the vessels and then they get caught,” said Wenger. Several other deterrents remain before the Northwest Passage can become a full-blown highway. For massive container ships, parts of the route are too shallow and the passage offers no ports where the vessels can drop cargo, which they typically do at several points along a voyage. “There’s a complete and utter lack of infrastructure. So it’s risky for companies to do this, and it’s not foolproof. Just because it’s shorter doesn’t mean it’s going to take less time,” said Jackie Dawson, the Canada Research Chair in the human and policy dimensions of climate change at the University of Ottawa. “There’s just a lack of predictability. And if you do have an accident, there’s no one immediately there to help.”
Still, the numbers speak for themselves. “Even pleasure craft is going up really quickly,” Dawson said. “People are excited by the idea of traversing the Northwest Passage. “In my world, a lot of scientists who would have wanted to work in Russia now want to work here,” she added, referring to that country’s attack on its neighbour. “We’re going to see more science vessels.” The trend is already underway, with 13 research ships cruising arctic waters in Canada last year versus four in 2016, according to the Arctic Council group. For Wenger, the call of the wild animals — polar bears, seals, muskox — he saw in the passage persists. But other images remain even more frozen in his mind. “Seeing an area that had been dubbed one of the hardest waterways to cross due to the ice conditions … without any ice — that was a real wow,” he recalled. “I didn’t expect that.” —By Christopher Reynolds, The Canadian Press

Head of Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami accuses Labrador group of ‘co-opting’ Inuit identity ‘NCC is not an Inuit rights-holding organization,’ Natan Obed asserts; NCC president calls allegations ’defamatory’ The president of Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami is accusing an organization in Labrador of co-opting Inuit identities to secure lands, rights and financial resources. Natan Obed argues that NunatuKavut Community Council, which represents some 6,000 people in south and central Labrador it claims to be Inuit, is advancing “illegitimate claims” of Indigenous identity. Todd Russell, president of the NCC, is describing the allegations as “defamatory,” adding that ITK, the national organization for Inuit in Canada, has “no right” to determine the identity of the people his own group represents. It is not the first time the NCC has faced questions about its claims. The Innu Nation has asked the Federal Court to quash a 2019 agreement between the federal government and the council. That memorandum of understanding sets the guidelines for self-determination talks. The Inuit Nunatsiavut government in northern Labrador also does not recognize the council as an Inuit group. The latest challenge came in an open letter to Canadians that Obed published Monday, in which he urged governments to guard against “the erosion of Indigenous rights and status” by refusing to recognize groups such as this one. Obed noted the NCC used to refer to itself as the
Labrador Metis Nation — a choice its website says it made decades ago when the makeup of representative Indigenous groups “was constantly in flux.” “NCC is not an Inuit rights-holding organization,” Obed wrote in the Monday letter. He said it is also not affiliated with any of the four Inuit treaty organizations that developed the federal policy for Inuit Nunangat, which is the traditional Inuit territory in Canada. “NCC is a shape-shifting non-Indigenous organization that is part of the alarming trend of non-Indigenous people and groups co-opting Indigenous identities, cultures, and experiences to secure financial resources and rights,” Obed wrote. “Inuit are one people, and we share a common history, language, culture and way of life. We are bound to each other through this commonality and through our kinship and family ties,” he wrote. “Inuit know who we are and where our people are in Canada and throughout the circumpolar world.” Amy Hudson, the NCC’s chief governance officer, said Wednesday that despite a change in name, its people have never shifted who they are. “Our people have not changed. Our bloodlines have not changed.” In a statement posted online Monday, Russell said the letter from Obed is “filled with outrageous claims, outright lies and falsehoods.”
Natan Obed, president of Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, asserts that Canadians have been confronted with a tidal wave of false claims to Indigenous identity. These cases take advantage of the uncertainty many Canadians have surrounding Indigenous identity. The Canadian Press/AP-Gregorio Borgia He also added the federal government has recognized the people his organization represents as Indigenous. “Obed’s comments about ‘misappropriation of resources’ very clearly demonstrates the motivations behind ITK’s allegations about us — money,” Russell wrote. “They have manufactured a fear that they will lose something as we progress.” The NCC wants to reassure its people “that while
the lies and innuendo being spread about us are hurtful and disheartening, it does not change who we are as Inuit or where we come from,” Russell wrote. Obed said Wednesday one of the reasons he decided to release the letter this week is because the ITK passed a resolution at its annual general meeting last month rejecting the premise that the NCC has constitutional rights as Indigenous Peoples. He had penned a similar letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in 2021, calling on him to rethink the way the federal government engages with NCC. On Wednesday, Obed said ITK still remains largely in the dark about the federal government’s dealings with the group. Joanna Sivasankaran, a spokeswoman for Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Gary Anandasangaree, said in a written statement on Wednesday that the 2019 memorandum of understanding between the federal government and the NCC was meant to resolve questions about the rights that the organization holds. The document did not “create, recognize or deny any legal or constitutional right or obligation on the part of either party,” she wrote. “Recognition of Indigenous rights requires a rigorous examination. NunatuKavut is not receiving resources deemed for Inuit.” —By Alessia Passafiume, The Canadian Press

Harry Niakrok Sr. takes eighth spot on Rankin Inlet council 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 buildings 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 community 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.”

November is National Diabetes Month As many as 11 million Canadians living with the disease or in pre-diabetic condition National Diabetes Awareness Month is held in November and is an opportunity to learn about the disease as winter sets in. Diabetes is a problem in a person’s body where no, or insufficient amounts of, insulin are produced. Insulin, a pancreas-generated hormone, is responsible for allowing the transport of sugar through cellular walls and regulating overall amounts in the bloodstream. Too much or too little sugar in the bloodstream can cause problems; too much sugar for too long can lead to organ damage, blood vessel damage or nerve impairment. According to an Alberta Health Services (AHS) release talking about National Diabetes Month, as many as 11 million Canadians are either living with the disease or in pre-diabetic condition. There are three types of diabetes that can affect people; Type 1, pre-diabetes, and type 2. An autoimmune disease, type one diabetes is characterized by sufferers requiring artificial insulin as their bodies are unable to generate their own. Around 10 per cent of people with diabetes are afflicted with type one diabetes.
Pre-diabetes is commonly a precursor to type two diabetes. It is characterized by higher-than-normal blood sugar levels, but not high enough to be classed as type two. Type 2 diabetes commonly develops in adulthood, though can develop in childhood as well. In type 2, people can’t efficiently use the body’s insulin or they are unable to produce enough due to pancreatic issues. Around 90 per cent of diabetics deal with type 2. If caught early, type 2 diabetes can be treated with exercise and diet, though often medication will need to be added as well. Staying active is important in preventing type 2 diabetes and its associated health risks. Exercise helps with insulin sensitivity, making it more effective; helps with weight management; and leads to better heart health. Heart issues are a common complication of diabetes. To combat type 2 diabetes, AHS recommends incorporating exercise into your routine. Common winter activities can include skating or skiing, yoga classes, joining an indoor sports club, walking stairs at work,
taking a lunchtime walk or heading to your local pool are just some activities that Albertans can partake in this winter to help them remain active. -Black Press Media staff
