Flames cause a massive plume of black smoke that could be seen across the city

By Tom Taylor Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative reporter

A vehicle caught fire on Wednesday evening in Iqaluit, causing a large blaze and a plume of black smoke that could be seen across the city.

The vehicle, a Chevy Tahoe, was parked outside Building 187 on Queen Elizabeth, just down the street from Ventures, a local grocery store. It caught fire around 7:15 pm, and within minutes, it was engulfed in flame, and its original colour was no longer discernible.

Firefighters and police arrived at the scene of the fire in minutes. There were two full-sized fire trucks on the road, and personnel put the blaze out soon after their arrival. No injuries occurred, according to a City of Iqaluit spokesperson, however, residents of nearby buildings—several of whom had their windows open—may be smelling smoke for some time.

It is not clear at this time what started the fire, and the incident is being investigated.

Even the first people to arrive on the scene were unsure what happened.

“We just saw the smoke and ran here,” one woman said.

“I saw the smoke and came,” said another spectator, who noted that there had been lots of people around at the time.

While local police were quick to stop traffic of either end of the block, a crowd of well over 100 pedestrians had gathered by the time the blaze was put out, taking pictures and videos of the blackened vehicle as it dripped water. Many of them were children who had been playing outside Nakasuk School just down the street, but authorities were able to keep the crowd at a distance while the fire was active.

Federal underfunding Indigenous housing leads to years-long wait-lists, frustration

In June, the federal government announced $287.1 million of “immediate funding” to address the critical need for safe and affordable Indigenous housing projects.

Nunavut MP Lori Idlout, the Indigenous critic for the NDP, said that is “just a drop in the bucket.”

“What we were able to get through the supply-and-confidence agreement, while it wasn’t enough, was more than what had been invested the last few years. So we know that the need is greater than what’s being provided,” she said.

Idlout said the housing conditions on-reserve often lead people to leave for urban centres. But many of those who leave end up homeless elsewhere, she said.

She said she hopes to see the federal government recognize the need for other infrastructure as well.

“Many communities ask for shelters, they ask for transition homes, they ask for wellness, recovery or treatment centres. These are the solutions that Indigenous peoples have been saying they’ve been needing for years.”

Waiting lists

Stefania Giesbrecht was hoping that by the time she finished her studies, she could move back to her community of Saugeen First Nation.

But after nine years on a wait-list, the single mother of three said she has no idea when she will be able to make the move to the community on the shores of Lake Huron near Owen Sound, Ont.

“I put myself onto the waiting list, and my mother went on the waiting list and my sister went on the waiting list,” she said.

“And none of us have got any updates.”

Giesbrecht said she wants to live on-reserve to immerse her children in their culture. That is something her mother couldn’t do as a child of the ’60s Scoop, when Indigenous children were forcefully removed from their families and placed in foster homes by child-welfare authorities.

Giesbrecht said she doesn’t blame the community leadership, often referred to as band office officials, for the lengthy wait.

But she does hold the federal government accountable for chronic underfunding that has affected generations, and makes it difficult for First Nations communities to grow in size.

“When the Canadian government intended to assimilate Indigenous people into the body politic, they had no intention of providing us housing for a bigger populace,” she said.

Canada’s housing shortage has become a major issue in federal politics as people struggle to afford home prices and rent.

But in some Indigenous communities, inadequate housing is nothing new.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government has put an emphasis on advancing reconciliation, which is the language it uses when highlighting federal investments in Indigenous housing.

Expectations were high when the confidence-and-supply agreement between the Liberals and the NDP listed a “significant additional investment in Indigenous housing in 2022” as a shared commitment.

$44 billion needed: AFN

The Assembly of First Nations had said there was a need for $44 billion to address current on-reserve housing needs alone, plus another $16 billion to account for projected population growth to 2040. Indigenous Services Minister Patty Hajdu noted that figure when told the Globe and Mail ahead of last year’s budget that she had made an “ambitious” request, although she did not detail the specific amount she had wanted to see.

The 2022 federal budget ended up committing $4 billion over seven years for building and repairing housing in Indigenous communities, including $2.4 billion over five years for housing on First Nations reserves.

The investments fall far short of what communities say they need.

Only a few thousand people live on-reserve in Peguis First Nation, north of Winnipeg, but there is a shortage of 800 homes.

Chief Stan Bird said families are forced to live in overcrowded homes and the situation is becoming more dire.

One family of 11 is sharing a three-bedroom home, he said. Two of the people living there have chronic health conditions.

“We’re in a housing crisis,” said Bird. “We’ve been in this position for a number of years.”

That is leading to mental-health challenges and tensions in the community as families become increasingly desperate.

Bird said people in his community have tried to make do.

“Our people have been subjected to things that most families in Canada would not even begin to think is possible in someone’s life,” he said.

He said he also wonders how the existing houses can be improved structurally to prevent mould, which is becoming more common with flooding in the community.

“People are tired — I’m tired,” Bird said. “People are growing angry.”

‘Decades of underfunding’

Cindy Woodhouse, the Manitoba regional chief for the Assembly of First Nations, said the housing crises on reserves is the result of “decades of underfunding.”

Still, the advocacy organization is hoping it can close the gap before 2030.

The AFN is working with the federal government to co-develop and implement a national strategy for First Nations housing and related infrastructure. As of August, the estimated cost to bring housing and infrastructure on reserves up to general Canadian standards is more than $342 billion, with housing alone accounting for $135 billion of that.

Those numbers will continue to rise unless the problem is addressed now, she said. And the solutions go beyond more shovels in the ground and more renovations.

In some cases, it means the re-appropriation of land to increase the boundaries of reserves and make space for homes.

“We don’t want anything more than any other Canadian wants,” said Woodhouse. “We want to have good water, a good home, a safe home.”

“And not be super overcrowded with 30 people in a house.” But problems persist, including with intergovernmental relations. Many First Nations leaders worry their concerns are not taken as seriously as they should be by federal and provincial governments.

The lack of adequate federal investment in Indigenous housing is also a concern off-reserve.

Margaret Pfoh, the CEO of the Aboriginal Housing Management Association, said whether the focus is on urban Indigenous populations or a distinction-based approach, which means working with First Nations, Metis, and Inuit tailored to their different needs, “most of what we’re seeing happen right now … is really by and large performative in nature.”

That’s because funding announcements have yet to lead to adequate results, she said.

A report by the parliamentary budget officer in 2021 found that after taking into account current programs, there was a $636-million annual gap between what Indigenous households in urban, rural and Northern areas can afford to pay for adequate shelter, and the cost of obtaining it.

This year’s federal budget earmarked $4 billion over seven years, starting in 2024-25, to implement an urban, rural and northern Indigenous housing strategy through the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. that is co-developed with First Nations, Inuit and Metis. That was on top of the $300 million over five years in the 2022 budget.

But that is less than what the National Housing Council, an advisory body to the federal government, had said was needed. The council had recommended at least $6.3 billion over two years beginning in 2022-23.

Minister Gross addresses weather-related closures, school supply costs, and bullying

By Tom Taylor Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative reporter

Nunavut parents have a range of concerns for their children as the 2023-24 school year ramps up, and Minister of Education

Pamela Gross has heard them.

On Sept. 1, Nunavut News published a story outlining the concerns of parents from across the territory, and several days later, Gross addressed some of those concerns in an email.

“We must continue to work together to maintain positive school communities,” the minister said.

Bullying

Avakana Allukpik, a mother of five from Kugluktuk, said her biggest worry for the new school year is bullying.

Gross acknowledged that bullying is an important issue that is “most effectively addressed by collaborative strategies that consider the complexity of the issues involved,” and are “planned by and with parents, school leaders, school staff, outside agencies, and students.”

Her department has has undertaken several initiatives to address bullying in schools, including a partnership with the Canadian Red Cross, which provides bullying prevention training programs for school staff and youth.

The Department also provides schools with resources for Pink Shirt Day, a bullying prevention awareness day held every February, and is heading into its second school year using a violence reporting database.

“Reporting incidents, including violence and harassment, is an essential component of our health and safety program, and leads to prompt corrective and preventative actions that can be taken to prevent similar incidents in the future,” she said.

“Bullying does have serious repercussions. If there are any incidents where a student or parents or guardians need to address bullying, please reach out to your school leader for support. Healthy and safe school environments are inclusive, respectful, and conducive to learning. Let’s create and maintain positive spaces to learn as it’s in everyone best interest to lift each other up, so we all thrive together.”

Weather-related closures

Richard Bohlender, a father of four in Arctic Bay, said his biggest concern surrounds school closures due to inclement weather. He estimated his children missed up to 30 days of school last year.

Gross noted that the decision to close schools for bad weather lies with District Education Authorities and Commission Scolaire Francophone du Nunavut, and with school principals.

“There are many factors behind school closures and the primary reason for a closure order is always student and staff safety,” she said.

Key factors that can determine whether a school stays open or closes include visibility of less than 200 metres, constant wind speed exceeding 60 kilometres per hour, a wind chill index of –50 degrees celsius or greater, adverse road conditions, and the ability of snow clearing machinery, taxis and school buses to use those roads.

Expensive school supplies

Michael Fogan, a father of four from Iqaluit, cited the price of school supplies as a going concern, noting that products like backpacks are often very expensive—if they are even available in stores.

“The Department of Education recognizes that school supplies are expensive,” Gross said. “Our schools have budgets to purchase necessities for classrooms to be stocked with basic school supplies for all students.”

The minister explained that “personal belongings such as backpacks and indoor shoes are the responsibility of the parents or guardians,” but added that there are number of programs out there to help parents outfit their children with the necessary supplies, including the Inuit Child First Initiative, Northern Compass, and Helping our Northern Neighbours.

The global climate is changing and the Arctic is warming rapidly. These are objectively true statements that most people have come to accept.

But it is also true that Earth’s climate has never been stagnant and climate anomalies have been frequent throughout the past.

How then, do we understand our current situation relative to past climate shifts? Are the impacts of modern climate change comparable to those of the medieval warm period (MWP) or the little ice age (LIA)?

Our recently published study in Anthropocene demonstrates a much more substantial impact to polar bears resulting from recent climate change compared to observations over the last 4,000 years. This suggests that current climatic changes are, indeed, unprecedented in human history.

Ecosystem background Predators at the top of the food chain, like polar bears, reflect changes across the entire ecosystem, all the way down to microscopic algae.

In the Arctic, the base of the food web is sourced from two categories: sea ice-associated algae and open-water phytoplankton, which are distinguishable through their carbon isotopes.

In our study area — centred on Lancaster Sound in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago — the food web is fed by a combination of both sea ice algae and phytoplankton. We can assess the relative importance of these two sources through the stable isotopes incorporated into the tissues of animals.

The relative abundance of carbon isotopes does not change as they are transferred through the food web, so these isotopes tell us about the carbon sources at the base of the food web. Nitrogen isotopes do change as they are passed up the food chain, which tells us who is eating whom.

Results from our study

In our study we examined stable carbon and

nitrogen isotopes in polar bear bone collagen.

The polar bears were all from the Lancaster Sound sub-population and spanned the last 4,000 years. We acquired samples of modern polar bear (1998-2007) obtained through hunting and we were able to compare them to samples from archaeological excavations conducted in the region.

The span of time captured by the archaeological samples was vast, but by dividing them into time bins associated with the cultural traditions in the region we were able to compare the samples across time before present (BP): pre-Dorset (4000-2800 years BP), Dorset (1500-700 BP) and Thule (700-500 BP).

The Dorset/Thule cultural transition occurred at the onset of the medieval warm period, so a comparison of these time bins allows us to look at the state of the food web before and during a known climate shift. The Thule time bin also extends into the beginning of the little ice age giving us a glimpse into that period as well.

What it all means

First, the good news. The results of the nitrogen isotopes showed that throughout time, 4,000 years BP to the present, the structure of the Lancaster Sound food web was relatively unchanged. Polar bears eat seals, seals eat cod, cod eat zooplankton, et cetera. There were no surprising shifts in the diets of polar bears despite past and present climate change. This is comforting.

The results of the carbon isotopes tell a less encouraging story, however. Throughout the four millennia encapsulated by the ancient time bins, we saw stability in the mixture of sea ice algae and open water phytoplankton. We did not detect a difference in the origin of carbon at the base of the food web resulting from the medieval warm period or the little ice age.

The modern samples, however, showed a sig-

nificant difference in the source of carbon, resulting from a greater proportion of open water phytoplankton and less reliance on sea ice algae.

Evidence of a warming climate

Sea ice is an important habitat in the High Arctic. For polar bears it is a platform for hunting. For ringed seals, the primary prey of polar bears, it is a platform for denning and raising young.

The algae that grows in association with sea ice is also very important for jumpstarting biological productivity before the open water season. Our study shows that the loss of biological productivity associated with sea ice is unprecedented on a very long timescale.

Archaeological materials can provide valuable context to the ongoing climate discussion. Much of the valuable work being undertaken is tracking ecosystem changes on a short timescale, seasons to decades. But as we have demonstrated, the Arctic has already changed, so we should not always assume that we are looking at a pristine or undisturbed state.

Adding a lens that looks back into the distant past gives resolution and context to our collective understanding of our situation.

In this case, we have illustrated the magnitude of difference occurring in the modern Arctic, relative to past climate anomalies. The medieval warm period and onset of the little ice age were not visible in the isotopes of the Lancaster Sound food web but modern warming is very apparent. We can, therefore, not dismiss calls to action on climate change on the basis that the climate has always fluctuated.

‘Massive’ capesize ship sets record for Mary River mine

By Tom Taylor Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative reporter

In late August, Baffinland’s Mary River iron mine received its first visit from a capesize shipping vessel. For anyone in the area, it was difficult to miss.

Capesize ships measure 50 metres across, and 300 metres in length — nearly as long as five NHL rinks, end-to-end. They are too big to navigate famous waterways like the Suez and Panama canals, and 2.2 times larger than the Panamax vessels that typically carry the mine’s ore. The vessel that docked at the Milne Inlet port, which sits about 100km north of the mine, is owned by German shipping company Oldendorff, and is officially the largest ship that’s ever visited the mine.

It was “massive,” according to Pond Inlet’s Gavin Kunuk, the first Baffinland operator to load the mine’s ore onto the conveyor belt leading to the ship.

“We’d never seen anything like this here before,” he said. “It was a sight to see.”

Kunuk, who moonlights as a substitute teacher, has worked for Baffinland for about six months.

He said the visit from the capesize vessel was one of his favourite experiences on the job so far.

“I was happy the whole day,” he said. “Even when I woke up [the next day], I couldn’t believe I was the first guy to load the big ship.”

The enormous ship was docked at Milne Inlet port for 48 hours, and ultimately left with 165,000 metric tons of iron ore aboard. That ore, which is broken into small pieces called fines, is bound for Rotterdam, in the Netherlands.

The mine is expecting visits from four more of the hulking vessels this season, and depending on when they arrive, Kunuk could again have a hand in loading them.

It was fast-paced work, and he admits it took some getting used to, but it’s safe to say he wouldn’t object to taking on such duties again.

“When I first applied with Baffinland, I didn’t think I’d be a ship loader,” he said. “I thought they’d put me in other departments, but I’m glad they chose me for the ship loading department.

“I love my job. I always miss it when I have days off or weeks off. I always want to drive loaders. I don’t mind driving them every day.”

The arrival of the Oldendorff ship required more than two years of planning, according to Peter Akman, Baffinland’s head of stakeholder

relations and communications.

The planning phase included everything from terrestrial and marine surveys to construction. Baffinland also held practice sessions at the port ahead of the ship’s docking, which ran through the whole process.

“It was a huge team effort with safety at the heart of every step we have taken and will take in the future,” Akman said. “Even after the departure of this capesize vessel, there will be ongoing debriefs and learning to apply to the next vessel arriving.”

Crowd comes out for lacrosse

Grizzly camp proves popular

By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Rankin Inlet Local Journalism Initiative

Jon Tagoona had never played lacrosse outside of a few times in gym class.

“It’s a pretty fun sport though,” he remarked as the three-day workshops, which he was instructing, were wrapping up in Rankin Inlet Thursday, Aug. 31.

“I wish we had it as a kid here, but it’s good that these kids get it now.”

The Grizzly lacrosse camp taught skills and drills and included game sessions for different age groups, from U7 to U18.

“It’s about introducing a new sport that’s not really common here and getting kids involved in more sports,” said Tagoona.

He said the youth enjoyed the camp.

“They were telling me how fun it is. The kids come up and say, ‘Oh this is so much fun. I’ve never really played this before.’ It’s nice to introduce them to something new.”

The camp has been running annually for several years.

Kivalliq-Manitoba connection has room to grow

ᑭᕙᓪᓕᖅ-ᒪᓂᑐᐸ ᐱᓕᕆᖃᑎᒌᒃ ᐱᓕᕆᐊᒃᓴᖃᖅᐳᑦ

Chambers of commerce connect to forge closer relationship

By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative Rankin Inlet

The economic connection between Manitoba and the Kivalliq isn’t new, but Chuck Davidson thinks there’s room to grow it.

“It’s one of those things that you need to continue to develop,” said Davidson, president and CEO of the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce.

He and a dozen or so stakeholders from Manitoba businesses, governments and other organizations were touring Rankin Inlet last week to connect with the Kivalliq Chamber of Commerce and develop the economic relationship between the two jurisdictions.

“We think we can build on those relationships,” said Davidson. “This is an opportunity to do exactly that.”

Since Covid paused many similar connections, Davidson was glad to be back in Rankin Inlet to breathe some life into this relationship.

“It’s great to say that you’re going to have a relationship, but part of that relationship means you’ve got to go visit sometimes as well,” he said, adding it’s not good enough to just invite people to

Winnipeg all the time.

That said, the August visit to Rankin Inlet also served to prepare for a Winnipeg connection scheduled for February, where the Kivalliq chamber will be travelling south for a business conference.

“Before you can start doing business with someone, you need to have a relationship,” said Davidson.

Particularly, he thinks there’s room to rebuild Manitoba as a supply port to the Kivalliq, instead of having so many goods and services coming up from Quebec.

Patrick Tagoona, president of the Kivalliq chamber, said it’s hard to put a number on the economic value of the Kivalliq-Manitoba connection, but it must be in the hundreds of millions.

“This was a good exchange opportunity for us to have some good discussion and some education for them as well as to what’s happening in the Kivalliq,” he said about the meetings in Rankin Inlet.

“Manitoba is the natural corridor for Kivalliq for a long time, so the Manitoba-Kivalliq relationship goes way back.”

He also mentioned discussions around increasing utilization of the Churchill port to send products up to the Kivalliq.

For Davidson, the meetings last week weren’t a one-and-done, but the start of a new connection.

Will updated Covid vaccines work against latest variant? Canadian scientists monitor global research

Northwest Territories had lowest uptake of Covid vaccines at 75.5 per cent

Federal scientists will be monitoring global research to determine the effectiveness of updated vaccines against the latest Covid-19 variant, Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada say.

Canada’s first known case of the Omicron variant BA.2.86 was detected this week in British Columbia as the country became the seventh in the world to report its presence.

Health Canada is currently reviewing applications for Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech’s new mRNA vaccines, developed against the dominant XBB.1.5 variant ahead of a vaccination campaign set for the fall.

As of this week, there were only 13 sequences of the highly mutated variant BA. 2.86 available to analyze across six other countries — four in Denmark, three in the United States, two in Portugal, two in South Africa, one in Israel, and one in the United Kingdom, Health Canada and PHAC said in an email.

“Scientists are looking for signs that BA.2.86 lineages would change disease severity or spread, or impact the effectiveness of diagnostic tests, vaccines or treatments for Covid-19,” they said.

“As this new variant was just detected in Canada, it is difficult to have an understanding of its prevalence. As laboratories’ and clinical data is reported to PHAC, a more accurate picture will begin to emerge.”

Covid-19 cases involving the XBB.1.5 variant are currently at a low to moderate level, with stable or increasing trends in all reporting provinces and territories, Health Canada and PHAC said.

However, a hospital in Windsor, Ont., and another in Montague, P.E.I., announced outbreaks of the illness this week.

The BA.2.86 variant was detected in a B.C. resident who had not recently been outside the country, provincial authorities said this week.

Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix said in a joint statement that there doesn’t seem to be increased illness severity with the strain and the infected

person was not in hospital.

Federal figures show that, as of mid-June, 80.5 per cent of Canadians had received their primary series of Covid vaccines. The highest uptake, at nearly 92 per cent, was in Newfoundland and Labrador. The lowest, at 75.5 per cent, was in the Northwest Territories, followed by Alberta, where 76 per cent of people were vaccinated.

Dawn Bowdish, an immunologist at McMaster University in Hamilton, said it’s understandable that people are tired of Covid-19 amid a mostly normal return to social activities, but the mutating virus puts vulnerable populations, including the elderly, most at risk of infection.

However, only about 21 per cent of Canadians aged 80 and over have received boosters or completed a primary vaccination series in the last six months, she said.

The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) has recommended Canadians roll up their sleeves for a booster in the fall if it has been at least six months since their last dose or Covid-19 infection.

Bowdish said anyone starting chemotherapy or having major surgery may consider getting a booster before the reformulated vaccines are available but it’s otherwise best to wait.

Parts of the Southern Hemisphere have faced a triple threat during its respiratory season, which usually starts in April and ends in September in that region.

“They had a lot of influenza, they had a lot of RSV. They had a lot of Covid and they reported a lot of health-care worker absences, which means care for all things is impaired,” she said of Australia’s recent experience.

However, Australians had access to the current bivalent Covid vaccines, not the reformulated ones.

“What I worry about is it doesn’t need to be any worse or as bad as last year to still majorly impact health care for Canadians,” Bowdish said of a respiratory season that saw shortages of children’s pain relievers and long waits in

For people over 60, a vaccine for RSV, or respiratory syncytial virus, may also be available. Earlier this month, Health Canada announced the approval of a vaccine for RSV for those aged 60 and up, but it’s up to the provinces and territories to decide if and when Arexvy will be included in their vaccination programs.

Eric Arts, a virologist at Western University in London, Ont., noted many Canadians are getting to the one-year mark since their last booster so it will be important to get vaccinated in the fall. The updated vaccines’ formula will be a minor change from current vaccines but with better protection against circulating Omicron variants, he said.

“Hopefully, the bureaucracy will be fast to get them out.”
