Tuktoyaktuk Community Conservation Plan - April 2008 1 TUKTOYAKTUK COMMUNITY CONSERVATION PLAN Tuktoyaktuk Community Conservation Plan - April 2008 1 TUKTOYAKTUK COMMUNITY CONSERVATION PLAN A Plan for the Conservation and Management of Natural Resources and Lands within the Inuvialuit Settlement Region in the Vicinity of Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories Prepared by The Community of Tuktoyaktuk, The Wildlife Management Advisory Council (NWT) and The Joint Secretariat April 2008 Tuktoyaktuk Community Conservation Plan - April 2008 2 The Inuvialuit have and will always be conservationists. However, with the influx of people of different cultures with different values we must protect our lands and the animals that live there lest it be lost to us all. This is our responsibility to both our generation and future generations. Dennis Raddi, Tuktoyaktuk Conservation Plan Working Group Tuktoyaktuk Community Conservation Plan - April 2008 3 IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS AND ABBREVIATIONS The following important words and abbreviations have been used in the Community Conservation Plan and are explained below. Community Refers to all the Inuvialuit individuals living in the area and the local organizations which represent them. Those organizations include the Hunters and Trappers Committee, Elders Committee, Community Corporation, Community Education Council and Hamlet. Conservation Is ensuring that if we take caribou, there will be caribou the next year and the year after that. The same for anything else. This applies to all uses of the land: if it is used and enjoyed now, it must be left and preserved so that it will be there for the next year and for future years. Ecosystem Refers to all of the plants and animals in an area, including the air, water and land on which they depend. The parts of the ecosystem are interconnected and influence one another. Food and energy flow through the ecosystem and are returned to it. Successful conservation and management depend on the recognition that changing one part of the ecosystem may affect the other parts.

  • Tuktoyaktuk: Offshore Oil and a New Arctic Urbanism
    TUKTOYAKTUK: OFFSHORE OIL AND A NEW ARCTIC URBANISM Pamela riTChoT Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/thld_a_00133 by guest on 29 September 2021 PAMELA RITCHOT In 2008, the Canadian Government accepted BP’s $1.18 billion bid for the largest block of offshore oil exploration licenses in the Beaufort Sea. As climate change continues to lengthen the ice-free open water season, oil companies like BP, Exxon Mobil, and Imperial Oil have gained access to previously inaccessible Arctic waters, finding lucrative incentive to expand offshore drilling in its remote territories. Thus the riches of the Canadian Arctic are heightening its status as a highly complex territory of global concern at the nexus of several overlapping geopolitical, environmental, and economic crises, and are placing the construction of its landscape under the auspices of offshore oil development. At the edge of the Beaufort Sea, FIG. 1 — Tuktoyaktuk at the gateway to the hamlet of Tuktoyaktuk is geographically positioned as the the Canadian Arctic. Courtesy of author. gateway to these riches, and politically positioned to face this unique confluence occurring across four streams of issues: first, the global crisis of climate change as it rapidly reshapes a once- frozen landscape; second, the massive development potential under oil and gas exploration that is only possible through big industry; third, the history of cultural and geopolitical struggle of the indigenous Inuvialuit people; and fourth, the wielding of national sovereignty through aggressive federal plans for Arctic development FIG. 1. By maximizing the development potential of each issue, and mitigating their possible harmful effects in this fragile context, the various players in this confluence can position Canada’s Arctic territory for a future of urban and architectural opportunity.

  • Community Resistance Land Use And
    COMMUNITY RESISTANCE LAND USE AND WAGE LABOUR IN PAULATUK, N.W.T. by SHEILA MARGARET MCDONNELL B.A. Honours, McGill University, 1976 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Department of Geography) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April 1983 G) Sheila Margaret McDonnell, 1983 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 DE-6 (3/81) ABSTRACT This paper discusses community resistance to the imposition of an external industrial socio-economic system and the destruction of a distinctive land-based way of life. It shows how historically Inuvialuit independence has been eroded by contact with the external economic system and the assimilationist policies of the government. In spite of these pressures, however, the Inuvialuit have struggled to retain their culture and their land-based economy. This thesis shows that hunting and trapping continue to be viable and to contribute significant income, both cash and income- in-kind to the community.

  • Priorities for Land Use and Development in the Northwest
    PUBLIC OPINION RESEARCH BRIEF Priorities for Land Use and Development in the Northwest Territories Highlights from a telephone survey of NWT residents conducted November 4-9, 2015 for Ducks Unlimited by Ekos Research Public Opinion Brief: Priorities for Land Use and Development in the NWT - 2015 INTRODUCTION This research brief summarizes the results of a random digit dial telephone poll of NWT residents conducted for Ducks Unlimited Canada by the professional polling firm Ekos Research ​ ​ Associates. The poll interviewed a representative sample of 456 aboriginal and non-aboriginal residents by landline and cellphone November 4-9, 2015. A random sample of 456 is considered accurate to within ±4.59% 19 times out of 20. Interviews were carried out in communities across the region, including the following: Aklavik Fort Resolution Tsiigehtchic Behchokò Fort Simpson Tuktoyaktuk Colville Lake Fort Smith Tulita Déline Gamètì Ulukhaktok Enterprise Hay River Wekweètì Fort Good Hope Inuvik Whatì Fort Liard Lutselk'e Yellowknife Fort McPherson Norman Wells Fort Providence Paulatuk SURVEY FINDINGS Page 2 Public Opinion Brief: Priorities for Land Use and Development in the NWT - 2015 1. In the NWT today, cost of living and the environment are the issues foremost in the public mind, followed by economic development and jobs. To identify the issues most salient to the public, the first question on the survey asked NWT residents to name what they felt was the most important issues affecting the NWT, unaided, without prompting or pre-set answers. Results suggest that the top-of-mind issues for NWT residents are cost of living (24%) and the environment (20%), each eliciting more mentions than any other issue.

  • The Birth and Growth of Porsild Pingo
    ARCTIC VOL. 41, NO. 4 (DECEMBER 1988) P. 267-274 The Birth and Growth of Porsilc1 Pingo, Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, District of Mackenzie J. ROSS MACKAY’ (Received 21 March 1988; accepted in revised form I June 1988) ABSTRACT. The birth and growth of Porsild Pingo (ice-cored hill) can be taken as fairly representative of the birth and growth of the more than 2000 closed-system pingos of the western arctic coast of Canada and adjacent Alaska. Porsild Pingo, named after a distinguished arctic botanist, has grown in the bottom of a large lake that drained catastrophically about 1900. Porsild Pingo has grown up at the site of a former shallow residual pond. The “birth” probably took place between 1920 and 1930. The high pore water pressure that caused updoming of the bottom of the residual pond to give birth to Porsild Pingo came from pore water expulsion by downward and upward permafrost growth in saturated sands in a closed system. In the freeze-back period of October-November 1934, permafrost ruptured and the intrusion of water into the unfrozen part of the active layer grew a 3.7 m high frost mound photographed by Porsild in May 1935. Porsild Pingo has grown up at, or very close to, the site of the former frost mound. The growth of Porsild Pingo appears to have been fairly steady from 1935 to 1976, after which there has been a decline to 1987. The growth rate has been nearly linear with height, from zero at the periphery to a maximum at the top. The present addition of water to the pingo is about 630 m’.y”.

  • Ground Temperatures and Permafrost Warming from Forest to Tundra, Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands and Anderson Plain, NWT, Canada
    PERMAFROST AND PERIGLACIAL PROCESSES Permafrost and Periglac. Process. 28: 543–551 (2017) Published online 23 March 2017 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) DOI: 10.1002/ppp.1934 Ground Temperatures and Permafrost Warming from Forest to Tundra, Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands and Anderson Plain, NWT, Canada S. V. Kokelj,1* M. J. Palmer,2 T. C. Lantz3 and C. R. Burn4 1 Northwest Territories Geological Survey, Government of the Northwest Territories, Yellowknife, Canada 2 Cumulative Impact Monitoring Program, Government of the Northwest Territories, Yellowknife, Canada 3 School of Environmental Studies, University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia Canada 4 Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario Canada ABSTRACT Annual mean ground temperatures (Tg) decline northward from approximately À3.0°C in the boreal forest to À7.0°C in dwarf-shrub tundra in the Tuktoyuktuk Coastlands and Anderson Plain, NWT, Canada. The latitudinal decrease in Tg from forest to tundra is accompanied by an increase in the range of values measured in the central, tall-shrub tun- dra zone. Field measurements from 124 sites across this ecotone indicate that in undisturbed terrain Tg may approach 0°C in the forest and À4°C in dwarf-shrub tundra. The greatest range of local variation in Tg (~7°C) was observed in the tall-shrub transition zone. Undisturbed terrain units with relatively high Tg include riparian areas and slopes with drifting snow, saturated soils in polygonal peatlands and areas near lakes. Across the region, the warmest permafrost is associated with disturbances such as thaw slumps, drained lakes, areas burned by wildfires, drilling-mud sumps and roadsides.
