  • THAW SETTLEMENT of DEGRADING PERMAFROST: a GEOHAZARD AFFECTING the PERFORMANCE of MAN-MADE INFRASTRUCTURES at UMIUJAQ in NUNAVIK (QUÉBEC) Richard Fortier, Ing., Ph.D
    THAW SETTLEMENT OF DEGRADING PERMAFROST: A GEOHAZARD AFFECTING THE PERFORMANCE OF MAN-MADE INFRASTRUCTURES AT UMIUJAQ IN NUNAVIK (QUÉBEC) Richard Fortier, ing., Ph.D. Centre d’études nordiques, Université Laval, Québec, QC, Canada, G1V 0A6, [email protected] Maxime Bolduc, ing. jr. INSPEC-SOL, Montréal, QC, Canada, H4S 1C7 RÉSUMÉ La dégradation du pergélisol dans les régions nordiques peut provoquer des risques naturels comme la subsidence au dégel qui affecte la performance des infrastructures civiles. Par exemple, le long d’un segment de 300 m de longueur de la route d’accès à l’aéroport d’Umiujaq au Nunavik (Québec), trois zones de subsidence au dégel ont été étudiées durant l’été 2006; soit 15 ans après la construction de la route. La subsidence atteint par endroit jusqu’à 0,63 m pour un volume total de près de 530 m3. Des levés de géoradar et un profilage de résistivité électrique ont été réalisés afin de caractériser la stratigraphie du sous-sol et les conditions du pergélisol. Le dégel de sédiments marins gélifs sur une épaisseur d’au moins 4 m sous les zones de subsidence a provoqué un tassement et une diminution de l’indice des vides d’environ 15%. Le tassement au dégel est non seulement provoquée par la tendance au réchauffement climatique récemment observée au Nunavik mais aussi par l’accumulation de la neige le long de la route. Le couvert nival isole ainsi la surface du sol et prévient tout regel du sous-sol en hiver. Alors que la route est toujours carrossable, la seule mitigation économiquement viable au dégel du pergélisol est de laisser libre cours au tassement au dégel et de recharger le remblai lorsque cela est nécessaire jusqu’à sa stabilisation.

  • Protecting the Nastapoka River – a Multicultural Approach to Sustainability
    Geophysical Research Abstracts Vol. 21, EGU2019-3379, 2019 EGU General Assembly 2019 © Author(s) 2019. CC Attribution 4.0 license. Protecting the Nastapoka River – A Multicultural Approach to Sustainability Arielle Frenette and Najat Bhiry Centre for Northern Studies (CEN), Dép. de géorgaphie, Université Laval, Canada This presentation aims to describe and analyze a case study concerning the creation of a 27,000 km2 national park near the village of Umiujaq, Nunavik (Northern Québec). The aim of the park is to protect the Nastapoka River and the majority of its watershed from mining and hydroelectric development projects. With a 30 m high waterfall near its mouth, the Nastapoka River is of great importance to the region as it is part of the ancestral Inuit land as well as a habitat for the world’s only population of freshwater seals. It is located on Inuit and Cree territory, whose people hunt and fish in the area. The river was first targeted by Hydro-Québec (a provincial hydroelectricity company) for a mega-complex project called Grande-Baleine, but that was set aside by the government of Québec in 1994. In 2008, an important development project named Plan Nord was announced by the government of Québec. Plan Nord was implemented in 2011 to provide access to natural resources in Northern Québec. It aims to protect 50% of northern natural land – an objective that was largely denounced as a form of “compensation” so that Plan Nord could be held up as an “exemplary project of sustainable development”. National park projects were already underway in Nunavik.

  • CWB – Inuit Communities 2
    Report on trends in Inuit communities, 1981 to 2016 Date Released: 2019-05-22 Date modified: 2019-11-12 CWB – Inuit Communities 2 Executive summary The Community Well-Being (CWB) index is a means of measuring socio-economic well- being for individual communities across Canada. The index is comprised of 4 components (education, labour force activity, income and housing), which are combined to provide each community with a well-being "score." These scores are used here to compare well- being across Inuit communities with the well-being of non-Indigenous communities. Since CWB methodology is based on community-level data, well-being scores are not calculated for the Métis population. Currently, CWB scores for First Nations, Inuit and non-Indigenous communities are calculated using the Statistics Canada geographic unit of a Census Subdivision. Each First Nation or Inuit community is designated by one or more Census Subdivisions. However, the CWB does not create a score for Métis communities as there are only 8 Métis-designated settlement areas in Alberta; a smaller level of geography than CSDs. CWB index scores were calculated for 1981, 1991, 1996, 2001, 2006 and 2016 based on Canada's Census of Population. Scores for 2011 have been calculated based on the 2011 National Household Survey. Throughout this document, the term 'Censuses of Canada, 1981 to 2016' is meant to include the 1981 to 2006 censuses, the 2011 National Household Survey and the 2016 Census of Canada. Key findings The average CWB score for Inuit communities increased over the 35-year span, with the largest gains seen before 2001.
