TRANSLATION Minister of Health, Hon. Patty Hajdu, MP Premier Of
--. TRANSLATION March 9/2020 Minister of Health, Hon. Patty Hajdu, MP Premier of Nunavut, Hon Joe Savikataaq, MLA Tununiq MLA, David Qamaniq, MLA I am writing this letter to the Premier of Nunavut and Canada's Health Minister. I want the Member of the Legislative Assembly for Tununiq, David Qamaniq, to table my letter in the House and make use of it. Please raise this issue with the Premier of Nunavut from a health perspective. I am just a member of the public, a voter. I am also an elected person in Pond Inlet. I am recognized as a Nunavut Land Claims beneficiary and fully recognized by beneficiaries only. I believe that they should be cared for more. I present to you, Member for Tununiq, David Qamaniq and to you, Premier of Nunavut, Joe Savikataaq, these issues for your consideration. Dogs weren't allowed to eat cooked meat as their bones might become brittle and more susceptible to breakage. All the children living in separate communiti~s were taught the same morals and values by being given advice and they were required to do things that had to be done. Nowadays we shop for things we like and buy food that we like from the stores. Maybe that is what is causing illness. I am writing to you because I think you, as legislators, should consider this seriously. I am not a health care professional by any means. I am just telling you what I know. I hear that you are more susceptible to illness if your blood is thin. -

Letter to Kaviq Kaluraq Re Timelines for Phase 2 Review
1 | Page July 31, 2020 Marjorie Kaviq Kaluraq Nunavut Impact Review Board P.O. Box 1360 Cambridge Bay, NU X0B 0C0 We, the elected officials of the five communities in the North Baffin Region, are writing to you to today to inform you of serious problems with the proposed timelines for the review of Baffinland’s Mary River Phase 2 proposal. As we have explained in several previous submissions, we are not in favor of resuming meetings and hearings until issues related to COVID are resolved and face-to-face meetings can take place. It remains our position that proceeding now, when full face-to-face meetings is impossible, will be a breach of procedural fairness owed to our residents and members. In any case, our organizations will be unable to submit updated technical comments or prepare for technical meetings in August as proposed. We recommend, at minimum, updated technical comments be requested no sooner than mid-September and the technical meetings be scheduled no sooner than early October. This recommendation is based on the following issues: 1) When the Nunavut Impact Review Board (NIRB) postponed technical meetings in late April, it committed to consulting with interested parties before issuing next steps in this process. We expected to be consulted before these timelines were issued. As a result, we were not prepared to re-start this process with such little notice. 2) Many of our staff, consultants, and board members are on summer holidays. Most of the North Baffin residents that have relevant Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit are currently on the land and harvesting. -
Letter to PJ at QIA Wrt The
August 24, 2020 PJ Akeeagok President Qikiqtani Inuit Association Iqaluit, NU Sent via Email: [email protected] RE: North Baffin Community Concerns with Inuit Certainty Agreement and QIA Community Engagement Dear PJ Akeeagok: We, the Chairs of the Hunters and Trappers Organizations (HTOs), and Mayors of the Hamlets of the communities of Mittimatalik, Igloolik, Sanirajak, Arctic Bay, and Clyde River, are writing to express collective concerns around the Inuit Certainty Agreement (ICA) and the consultation the Qikiqtani Inuit Association (QIA) has had with our respective organizations. In February 2020, we met with you, your staff, and advisors in Iqaluit. We discussed our issues regarding the Phase 2 project. We reviewed matters presented by the QIA with respect to Inuit Committees, benefits, royalties, and a path forward to making Inuit decisions on Phase 2. The QIA suggested that Inuit would be provided certainty around the project with a “Draft Agreement in Principle” (AIP) to be prepared by Baffinland. This would address changes in the current Project and Inuit benefits, as well as changes to Inuit benefits resulting from the Phase 2 proposal. Baffinland, in correspondence to the QIA, indicated that a key component of the AIP would be a commitment to support Phase 2, should all identified issues be addressed. We expressed concerns that we were not comfortable discussing benefits until impacts had been appropriately and adequately considered and addressed through the assessment process. At that time, we indicated to you that we did not want to sign an agreement around the Mary River Phase 2 project. We advised your team that we were not satisfied with Baffinland’s understanding and assessment of impacts, and that we were not ready to begin discussion around an AIP. -
