  • Promising Practices in Suicide Prevention Across Inuit Nunangat
    Promising Practices in Suicide Prevention Across Inuit Nunangat NISPS RESEARCH AND DATA COLLECTION PROJECT JUNE 2019 1 About Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK) is the national representational organization for Canada’s 65,000 Inuit, the majority of whom live in four regions of Canada’s Arctic, specifically, the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (Northwest Territories), Nunavut, Nunavik (Northern Quebec), and Nunatsiavut (Northern Labrador). Collectively, these four regions make up Inuit Nunangat, our homeland in Canada. It includes 53 communities and encompasses roughly 35 percent of Canada’s land mass and 50 percent of its coastline. The comprehensive land claim agreements that have been settled in Inuit Nunangat continue to form a core component of our organization’s mandate. These land claims have the status of protected treaties under section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982, and we remain committed to working in partnership with the Crown toward their full implementation. Consistent with its founding purpose, ITK represents the rights and interests of Inuit at the national level through a democratic governance structure that represents all Inuit regions. ITK advocates for policies, programs and services to address the social, cultural, political and environmental issues facing our people. ITK is governed by a Board of Directors composed of the following members: • Chair and CEO, Inuvialuit Regional Corporation • President, Makivik Corporation • President, Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated • President, Nunatsiavut Government In addition to voting members, the following non-voting Permanent Participant Representatives also sit on the Board of Directors: • President, Inuit Circumpolar Council Canada • President, Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada • President, National Inuit Youth Council Prepared by Firelight Research Inc., 2019 2 Acknowledgements This report was produced by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami with support from the National Inuit Suicide Prevention Strategy Working Group and The Firelight Group.

Nevertheless, the French did not take effective control of their foothold on this continent until 7^ years later when Samuel de Champlain founded the settlement of Quebec in 1608, at the foot of Cape Diamond on the St. Laurence River. At first, the settlement was conceived of as a trading post for the lucrative fur trade, but two difficul­ ties soon becam,e apparent—problems that have plagued French Canada to the present day—the difficulty of comirunication across trackless forests and m.ountainous terrain and the rigors of the Great Canadian Winter.
