Kivia Covid 19 Response Initiative Phase 2
KivIA Covid 19 Response Initiative Phase 2 December 8, 2020 By KIA Announcements / Inuit Programs & Services RANKIN INLET, NU – December 7, 2020 – The Kivalliq Inuit Association (KivIA) is pleased to announce the launch of the second phase of its COVID-19 initiatives for its members. Initiatives that included support for its Elders, traditional activities, and support to all its members within our communities had ended. The additional funds for KivIA’s second phase COVID-19 response plan come from additional funding from the Indigenous Community Support Fund (ICSF). The KivIA had carefully considered various options to roll out this additional funding from the federal government. The discussion led to a consensus on a plan that would… Eliminate the need to have the program become application based Allow the general public, KIA staff and Inuit to not come in contact with each other in order to carry out this program, therefore following the Public Health Measures currently in effect. Allow the Inuit in the Kivalliq communities to quickly receive the relief funds without any delay due to administrative time. Benefit local Inuit owned companies with their services Maximize the funding effectiveness with the addition of added funds from the vendor and ability for its members to add on to their dividends. Prevent any tax implications for the Inuit from the federal government in receiving this relief funding. With the above factors put into consideration, it was suggested by the Covid-19 Planning Committee that the ICS Funding would be rolled out with a partnership with the Arctic Cooperatives Limited to provide $1500 gift cards to every Inuit household in the Kivalliq Region. -

We will have the opportunity to leave the airport and explore Rankin and visit a well regarded craft store where you may purchase souvenirs. Naujaat lies directly on top of the Arctic Circle in central Nunavut. The Arctic Circle is a line that delineates the points on the earth’s surface north of which the sun is above the horizon for 24 hours on June 21, and entirely below the horizon for 24 hours on December 21. Naujaat is the only North American community located on the Arctic Circle and it is here that the Arctic Circle cairn stands, a symbol that marks the Arctic Circle’s location. The Inuktitut name for Repulse Bay is Naujaat, which means “nesting place for seagulls”. Nesting grounds are located on cliffs five kilometres north of the community and every June the area is occupied by thousands of seagulls, as well as snow birds, loons, eider ducks, longtail ducks, and jaegers. Upon arrival, you will be met at the airport and transferred to the Naujaat Hotel – Inns North, which will be your home base for your stay here. -

MX-10 & MX-13 Muskox Abundance and Management Recommendations
MX-10 & MX-13 Muskox Abundance and Management Recommendations Consultation With Kivalliq Hunters and Trappers Organizations September 23rd to 26th, 2019 Authors: Keenan Lindell, Kivalliq Regional Wildlife Technician, GNDOE, Arviat, Mitch Campbell, Kivalliq Regional Wildlife Biologist, GNDOE, Arviat, Department of Environment, Government of Nunavut Arviat, Nunavut Executive Summary Representatives of the Government of Nunavut, Department of Environment (DOE) including Mitch Campbell, Kivalliq Region Biologist, and Keenan Lindell, Wildlife Technician, conducted phone call consultations with the Hunters and Trappers Organizations (HTOs) of Rankin Inlet, Naujaat, and Coral Harbour as well as a face to face consultation with the Arviat HTO, between September 23 and September 30th, 2019. The purpose of these consultations was to review the status of the Kivalliq MX-10 and MX-13 muskox subpopulations and request support for the DOE recommendation to increase the Total Allowable Harvest (TAH) of the Northern Kivalliq muskox subpopulation (MX-10) from 90 to 95 muskox, and the recommendation to keep the Central Kivalliq Muskox subpopulation (MX-13) status quo (unchanged) at 182 muskox. Attempts were made to speak with all Kivalliq HTOs, unfortunately our calls with Baker Lake and Whale Cove had to be postponed due to a search and rescue in Baker Lake, and a lack of quorum in Whale Cove. Despite several attempts to reach the Chesterfield Inlet HTO by both phone and e-mail, we did not receive a response back. All calls were preceded by the distribution of all final muskox survey reports four weeks prior to the phone consultation. In the case of Baker Lake and Whale Cove HTOs, both HTOs indicated that the reports were sufficient to finalize their decision to support the GN recommendations for status Quo for MX-13 (Central Kivalliq Muskox Subpopulation), and an increase in the TAH of the northern Kivalliq muskox subpopulation (MX- 10) from 90 to 95 muskox. -
The Story of Nuliajuk (Inuit) Narrated by : Peter Irniq, Inuit Naujaat
The story of Nuliajuk (Inuit) Narrated by : Peter Irniq, Inuit Naujaat, Nunavut Nuliajuk. Nuliajuk is a spirit. A spirit, known by Inuit as a Sea Spirit. Nuliajuk is someone that I knew, ever since I was a little boy. My father a Netsilik man, who came from Talurjuaq, in Netsilingmiut, the people who live among the seals. I came from that region and they used to tell that legend, Nuliajuk, as a story, and as a spirit and as someone that has, that had a lot of power. Nuliajuk, originally was Uinigumasuittuq. Uinigumasuittuq translates to “one that never wanted to marry,” wanted to remain a spinster for all her life. There’s a real story in that, because as mother and father, they wanted a son-in-law. They wanted their daughter to be married, so that the son-in-law could also contribute to hunting and provide food for the family. That is an extremely important aspect in Inuit culture, Inuit customs and Inuit traditions; which is how we grew up as Inuit, since thousands of years ago. Nuliajuk is a very ancient story, very ancient legend passed on from generation to generation, since time immemorial. Uinigumasuittuq, the one who never wanted to marry. So her father wanted her to be married, but she didn’t want to be married. And one day, the father said: “I’m going to take you down to the island.” So he took his daughter to an island, some distance away, with a dog or with dogs… Inuit dogs. And she started living with the dogs at this island. -

TAB8A DFO BN Kivalliq Char Update
SUBMISSION TO THE NUNAVUT WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT BOARD December 2020 FOR Information: X Decision: Issue: Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada – Kivalliq Region Arctic Char Update Fisheries Management Update: Within the Kivalliq region of Nunavut there are seven communities that are engaged in Arctic Char fisheries. Arviat, Whale Cove (Tikirarjuak), Rankin Inlet (Kangiqiniq), Chesterfield Inlet (Igluligaarjuk), Baker Lake (Qamanit’uak), Coral Harbour (Salliq) and Repulse Bay (Naujaat) have a long history of harvesting Arctic Char for a variety of purposes, including subsistence, recreational and commercial. Several of these communities are currently engaged in commercial fisheries. In February 2019 a workshop was held in Rankin Inlet in order to identify Arctic char research interests and commercial fisheries development priorities for each Kivalliq community. The workshop, attended by representatives from each Kivalliq HTO, the GN, NWMB and DFO, identified a desire by the communities to resolve Arctic Char diet from Kivalliq stocks. A community-based sampling program was proposed where funding from DFO would be provided to support 50 samples from selected waterbodies in each community. Additionally, the workshop participants were interested in further consideration of commercial fisheries development. Results from the 2019 assessment of diet suggest that Arctic char in the Kivalliq region are highly opportunistic feeders with over 90 different items identified among all samples assessed. The most common prey item found in the stomachs of Arctic char was a the amphipod Themisto libellula. Arctic cod were also an important prey item contributing the most by weight to the diet of Arctic char in the region. Fisheries Management engaged with Kivalliq Arctic Foods, and met with stakeholders in Rankin Inlet, Chesterfield Inlet, Whale Cove where the fish plant is currently actively involved in commercial harvesting. -
