Study participants have used and continue to use the Study Area for Marine Hunting. The quotes below highlight some of their experiences hunting narwhal, walrus, and seal species in and around Milne Inlet, Eclipse Sound, Pond Inlet, and Baffin Bay. So, his family would also go narwhal hunting around Milne Inlet. … Yeah, that was a prime narwhal hunting area all that along here. … Yeah, that whole area. (C15 2020a, interpreted from Inuktitut) There was so much narwhal that you could hear them as soon as you wake up and they’d be there all day … They’re migrating but there’s so many of them that they would – it could take all day into the night, that’s how much narwhal there was … So they … would do all their narwhal hunting around that area [in Eclipse Sound]. (A01 2020, interpreted from Inuktitut) Plenty of seal hunting around Mount Herodier area. … And then, you know, he would also remember people catching narwhal really close to Pond Inlet when he was a child, but he can’t quite pinpoint what the year was.

  • Canadian Arctic Tide Measurement Techniques and Results
    International Hydrographie Review, Monaco, LXIII (2), July 1986 CANADIAN ARCTIC TIDE MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES AND RESULTS by B.J. TAIT, S.T. GRANT, D. St.-JACQUES and F. STEPHENSON (*) ABSTRACT About 10 years ago the Canadian Hydrographic Service recognized the need for a planned approach to completing tide and current surveys of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago in order to meet the requirements of marine shipping and construction industries as well as the needs of environmental studies related to resource development. Therefore, a program of tidal surveys was begun which has resulted in a data base of tidal records covering most of the Archipelago. In this paper the problems faced by tidal surveyors and others working in the harsh Arctic environment are described and the variety of equipment and techniques developed for short, medium and long-term deployments are reported. The tidal characteris­ tics throughout the Archipelago, determined primarily from these surveys, are briefly summarized. It was also recognized that there would be a need for real time tidal data by engineers, surveyors and mariners. Since the existing permanent tide gauges in the Arctic do not have this capability, a project was started in the early 1980’s to develop and construct a new permanent gauging system. The first of these gauges was constructed during the summer of 1985 and is described. INTRODUCTION The Canadian Arctic Archipelago shown in Figure 1 is a large group of islands north of the mainland of Canada bounded on the west by the Beaufort Sea, on the north by the Arctic Ocean and on the east by Davis Strait, Baffin Bay and Greenland and split through the middle by Parry Channel which constitutes most of the famous North West Passage.

Much of the remaining time was then spent discussing and documenting contemporary seasonal land use activities in the Eclipse Sound and Navy Board Inlet areas. The workshop was facilitated by Jason Prno. Workshop notes were recorded by Jennifer St Paul Butler and Jason Lewis, and were compiled by Jason Lewis. The workshop was observed by Justin Buller and Jeff Hidgon of the QIA. Information provided in the workshop (included below) is attributed to individual participants or to group discussion where appropriate. Where an attribution is not listed, the information provider(s) were unrecorded.

Isuma Distribution International Inc., with Nunavut Independent Television Network (NITV), Municipality of Igloolik, Nunavut Dept. of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth, Carleton Centre for Community Innovation, Mount Allison University and LKL International. Project leaders, Zacharias Kunuk and Norman Cohn. Human Rights Assessor, Lloyd Lipsett. • WHAT? In complex multi-lateral high-stakes negotiations, Inuit consensus - deciding together – may be the strongest power communities can bring to the table with governments and transnational corporations working together. DID uses internet, community radio, local TV and social media to amplify Inuit traditional decision-making skills at a moment of crisis and opportunity: as Inuit face Environmental Review of the $6 billion Baffinland Iron Mine (BIM) on north Baffin Island. Through centuries of experience Inuit learned that deciding together, called angjqatigiingniq [ahng-ee-kha-te-GING-nik] in Inuktitut – a complex set of diplomatic skills for respectful listening to differing opinions until arriving at one unified decision everyone can support – is the smartest, safest way to go forward in a dangerous environment. Through DID, Inuit adapt deciding together to modern transnational development – to get needed information in language they understand, talk about their concerns publicly and reach collective decisions with the power of consensus. Inuit consensus then is presented in a multimedia Human Rights Impact Assessment (HRIA), looking at the positive and negative impacts of the proposed mine in terms of international human rights standards and best practices, to the regulatory process, online through IsumaTV and through local radio and TV channels in all Nunavut communities.

In a session held April 5 on “community engagement,” mining companies and local communities outlined how they’re connecting with each other or would like to in the future. There, Paul Quassa, the acting mayor of Igloolik, told how his community and six others in the Baffin region want to assume more power over research that can influence whether a development project moves ahead and, if so, how. “We’ve been researched to death,” Quassa said. “Now we want to have control of the research so it benefits us.” Quassa said many Baffin communities feel left out of the environmental assessment process or don’t have the resources to fully participate. The proposed Baffin Environmental Assessment Community Engagement Network, dubbed BEACEN, will change that, he said. The network would see people in Pond Inlet, Arctic Bay, Hall Beach, Igloolik, Clyde River, Kimmirut and Cape Dorset working hand-in-hand with researchers from Ottawa’s Carleton University. The plan sees them linked up virtually by the Igloolik-based Isuma TV so that they can work together on projects like social and economic baseline studies and research other areas like climate change or shipping.
