    kNK5 moZos3=x Nunavut Maligaliurvia Legislative Assembly of Nunavut Assemblée législative du Nunavut R E L E A S E Legislative Assembly Recommends the Re-appointment of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Nunavut IQALUIT, Nunavut (November 25, 2004) - The Legislative Assembly today recommended that Ms. Elaine Keenan Bengts be re-appointed as the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Nunavut for a five-year term of office. Section 61 of Nunavut’s Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act provides that the Commissioner of Nunavut, on the recommendation of the Legislative Assembly, shall appoint an Information and Privacy Commissioner. The position is one of a number of independent officers who report directly to the Legislative Assembly. The purposes of the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act are to make public bodies more accountable to the public and to protect personal privacy by giving the public a right of access to records held by public bodies; giving individuals a right of access to, and a right to request correction of, personal information about themselves held by public bodies; specifying limited exceptions to the rights of access; preventing the unauthorized collection, use or disclosure of personal information by public bodies; and providing for an independent review of decisions made under the Act. The Information and Privacy Commissioner performs a number of duties under the Act, and reports annually to the Legislative Assembly. Ms. Keenan Bengts was appointed Nunavut’s first Information and Privacy Commissioner in 1999. She is a long-term Northerner and non-resident member of the Law Society of Nunavut.

Faite de vermeil, elle mesure 4 pieds de hauteur et pèse environ 18 livres. Ses quatre faces représentent respectivement la couronne royale, les armoiries de la Nouvelle Écosse, le grand sceau actuel de la province (celui conféré avant la Confédération) et la silhouette d’un Président vêtu de ses habits officiels. Sont également gravés sur la masse la fleur de mai, emblème floral de la Nouvelle Écosse, et le chardon écossais. La masse a été fabriquée en Angleterre par Elkington and Company, Limited. M. et Mme Harris souhaitaient que leur don de la masse reste anonyme. Le premier ministre de l’époque a respecté leur désir, mais a demandé que leur legs puisse être reconnu ultérieurement au moyen d’une inscription gravée sur la masse. Par conséquent, dans son testament, le juge en chef a chargé ses exécuteurs de faire graver l’inscription suivante sur la masse et d’assumer les coûts des travaux à même sa succession : « Cette masse fut présentée à la Chambre d’assemblée de la province de la Nouvelle Écosse par l’honorable Robert E.

    IQRF 2019 001 Kkangiqłiniq HTO Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Final Report

    Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Workshop Rankin Inlet, August 20, 2019 Clayton Tartak Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Ezra Greene Research Consultant Warren Bernauer Research Consultant Report prepared for the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Summary On August 20, 2019 the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization (K-HTO) in Rankin Inlet held a day-long workshop with four Elders: Jerome Kupaak Tattuinee, Mary-Ann Inuaraq Tattuinee, Alain Kumak Kabvitok, and Jack Tikiq Kabvitok. The focus of the workshop was Inuit perspectives on caribou management. The project was carried out by three researchers: Clayton Tartak (project leader), Ezra Greene (research consultant), and Warren Bernauer (research consultant). Interpretation services between Inuktitut and English were provided by Maggie Putulik. The project received funding from the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board’s (NWMB) Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Research Fund. To facilitate discussion, the researchers screened videos from the Kaminuriak Caribou Herd Project: a participatory video project that documented Inuit perspectives on caribou management in the early 1980s. The videos helped stimulate conversation – they were particularly useful in generating discussion about how caribou and caribou management have changed since the 1980s. The workshop addressed several issues relevant to caribou management today, including: traditional rules for caribou hunting, changes related to caribou since the 1980s, the impacts of mining on caribou, concerns with selling caribou meat, concerns with younger hunters not following traditional rules, the importance of teaching younger hunters traditional skills, rules, and values, and commentary on research. The Elders indicated that they enjoyed the workshop format, especially the use of videos and recommended the researchers hold similar workshops in other communities.
