  • Transits of the Northwest Passage to End of the 2019 Navigation Season Atlantic Ocean ↔ Arctic Ocean ↔ Pacific Ocean
    TRANSITS OF THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE TO END OF THE 2019 NAVIGATION SEASON ATLANTIC OCEAN ↔ ARCTIC OCEAN ↔ PACIFIC OCEAN R. K. Headland and colleagues 12 December 2019 Scott Polar Research Institute, University of Cambridge, Lensfield Road, Cambridge, United Kingdom, CB2 1ER. <[email protected]> The earliest traverse of the Northwest Passage was completed in 1853 but used sledges over the sea ice of the central part of Parry Channel. Subsequently the following 314 complete maritime transits of the Northwest Passage have been made to the end of the 2019 navigation season, before winter began and the passage froze. These transits proceed to or from the Atlantic Ocean (Labrador Sea) in or out of the eastern approaches to the Canadian Arctic archipelago (Lancaster Sound or Foxe Basin) then the western approaches (McClure Strait or Amundsen Gulf), across the Beaufort Sea and Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean, through the Bering Strait, from or to the Bering Sea of the Pacific Ocean. The Arctic Circle is crossed near the beginning and the end of all transits except those to or from the central or northern coast of west Greenland. The routes and directions are indicated. Details of submarine transits are not included because only two have been reported (1960 USS Sea Dragon, Capt. George Peabody Steele, westbound on route 1 and 1962 USS Skate, Capt. Joseph Lawrence Skoog, eastbound on route 1). Seven routes have been used for transits of the Northwest Passage with some minor variations (for example through Pond Inlet and Navy Board Inlet) and two composite courses in summers when ice was minimal (transits 149 and 167).

  • Unlearning Qallunaat Ways 1
    Running Head: Unlearning Qallunaat Ways 1 Unlearning Qallunaat Ways: Self-Reflection and Transformation While Working in Nunavut A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Education In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Education University of Prince Edward Island Charlottetown, PE October 22, 2017 UNLEARNING QALLUNAAT WAYS 2 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to explore my personal journey of transformation as it took place while working with Inuit educational leaders and youth in Nunavut from 2011 to 2015. Using autoethnography, I provide a background to who I was before working with Inuit, and then go on to explore how I learned about the history of education in Nunavut, about the process of colonization, and the emotions felt as I struggled to come to terms with my privilege as a white, middle-class Canadian and descendant of European settlers while working within an Indigenous context. I conclude by sharing the importance of building relationships as a way of healing and moving forward with a goal of becoming an ally and trying to do my small part in the reconciliation process. KEY WORDS: Qallunaat, autoethnography, Nunavut, Inuit, settler UNLEARNING QALLUNAAT WAYS 3 Dedication An Inuit educational leader and participant in the Nunavut Master of Education program 2010-2013 shared the following advice: [N]o matter how difficult, no matter how negative it seems, you need to move forward. Like my late grandmother would always say, “In life, you will come across boulders that will stop you from moving on the path. Go around that boulder, go over that boulder, but don’t go under it because then you will force whatever is slowing you down to overpower you.” Think of this program as a tool, as a way to overcome the issues that you face, that your school faces, and what your community faces.

  • Dear Secretary Salazar: I Strongly
    Dear Secretary Salazar: I strongly oppose the Bush administration's illegal and illogical regulations under Section 4(d) and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, which reduce protections to polar bears and create an exemption for greenhouse gas emissions. I request that you revoke these regulations immediately, within the 60-day window provided by Congress for their removal. The Endangered Species Act has a proven track record of success at reducing all threats to species, and it makes absolutely no sense, scientifically or legally, to exempt greenhouse gas emissions -- the number-one threat to the polar bear -- from this successful system. I urge you to take this critically important step in restoring scientific integrity at the Department of Interior by rescinding both of Bush's illegal regulations reducing protections to polar bears.

  • Who Discovered the Northwest Passage? Janice Cavell1
    ARCTIC VOL. 71, NO.3 (SEPTEMBER 2018) P.292 – 308 https://doi.org/10.14430/arctic4733 Who Discovered the Northwest Passage? Janice Cavell1 (Received 31 January 2018; accepted in revised form 1 May 2018) ABSTRACT. In 1855 a parliamentary committee concluded that Robert McClure deserved to be rewarded as the discoverer of a Northwest Passage. Since then, various writers have put forward rival claims on behalf of Sir John Franklin, John Rae, and Roald Amundsen. This article examines the process of 19th-century European exploration in the Arctic Archipelago, the definition of discovering a passage that prevailed at the time, and the arguments for and against the various contenders. It concludes that while no one explorer was “the” discoverer, McClure’s achievement deserves reconsideration. Key words: Northwest Passage; John Franklin; Robert McClure; John Rae; Roald Amundsen RÉSUMÉ. En 1855, un comité parlementaire a conclu que Robert McClure méritait de recevoir le titre de découvreur d’un passage du Nord-Ouest. Depuis lors, diverses personnes ont avancé des prétentions rivales à l’endroit de Sir John Franklin, de John Rae et de Roald Amundsen. Cet article se penche sur l’exploration européenne de l’archipel Arctique au XIXe siècle, sur la définition de la découverte d’un passage en vigueur à l’époque, de même que sur les arguments pour et contre les divers prétendants au titre. Nous concluons en affirmant que même si aucun des explorateurs n’a été « le » découvreur, les réalisations de Robert McClure méritent d’être considérées de nouveau. Mots clés : passage du Nord-Ouest; John Franklin; Robert McClure; John Rae; Roald Amundsen Traduit pour la revue Arctic par Nicole Giguère.

  • 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.

  • Transits of the Northwest Passage to End of the 2016 Navigation Season Atlantic Ocean ↔ Arctic Ocean ↔ Pacific Ocean
    TRANSITS OF THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE TO END OF THE 2016 NAVIGATION SEASON ATLANTIC OCEAN ↔ ARCTIC OCEAN ↔ PACIFIC OCEAN R. K. Headland revised 14 November 2016 Scott Polar Research Institute, University of Cambridge, Lensfield Road, Cambridge, United Kingdom, CB2 1ER. The earliest traverse of the Northwest Passage was completed in 1853 but used sledges over the sea ice of the central part of Parry Channel. Subsequently the following 255 complete maritime transits of the Northwest Passage have been made to the end of the 2016 navigation season, before winter began and the passage froze. These transits proceed to or from the Atlantic Ocean (Labrador Sea) in or out of the eastern approaches to the Canadian Arctic archipelago (Lancaster Sound or Foxe Basin) then the western approaches (McClure Strait or Amundsen Gulf), across the Beaufort Sea and Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean, from or to the Pacific Ocean (Bering Sea) through the Bering Strait. The Arctic Circle is crossed near the beginning and the end of all transits except those to or from the west coast of Greenland. The routes and directions are indicated. Details of submarine transits are not included because only two have been reported (1960 USS Sea Dragon, Capt. George Peabody Steele, westbound on route 1 and 1962 USS Skate, Capt. Joseph Lawrence Skoog, eastbound on route 1). Seven routes have been used for transits of the Northwest Passage with some minor variations (for example through Pond Inlet and Navy Board Inlet) and two composite courses in summers when ice was minimal (transits 154 and 171). These are shown on the map following, and proceed as follows: 1: Davis Strait, Lancaster Sound, Barrow Strait, Viscount Melville Sound, McClure Strait, Beaufort Sea, Chukchi Sea, Bering Strait.
