    Cambridge Bay New Power Plant Project Nunavut Planning Commission ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Project Introduction Qulliq Energy Corporation (QEC) is proposing to construct and operate a new power plant in the Hamlet of Cambridge Bay located in the Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut (the Project). This will be a multi-year Project that will include the installation of a 90,000-liter capacity horizontal fuel tank and two 2 million-liter capacity vertical fuel tanks and the new power plant will use more fuel-efficient engines. The plant will generate less noise and exhaust gases, due to the availability of equipment like industrial scrubbers and hospital grade silencers which will substantially reduce sound and air pollution. The new plant will have a life cycle of over 40 years and will be capable of integrating renewable energy sources. Proponent Information Qulliq Energy Corporation (QEC) is a Government of Nunavut (GN) territorial corporation. Through the operation of 25 stand-alone diesel power plants with a total installed capacity of approximately 76,000 kilowatts, QEC is the sole provider of electricity to approximately 15,000 customers in the territory. QEC provides mechanical, electrical, and line maintenance services from three regional centers: Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay. QECs administrative activities are carried out at the Head Office in Baker Lake and the Corporate Office in Iqaluit. QEC is committed to planning and developing cost effective and efficient ways to provide a safe, reliable and stable energy supply for all Nunavummiut. Project Background Cambridge Bay is a community with increasing demand for electricity, reflecting its growing population and increasing government and commercial enterprise.

  • Climate Change and Food Sovereignty in Nunavut
    land Article Being on Land and Sea in Troubled Times: Climate Change and Food Sovereignty in Nunavut Bindu Panikkar 1,* and Benjamin Lemmond 2 1 Environmental Studies Program and the Rubenstein School of the Environment and Natural Resources, University of Vermont, 81 Carrigan Dr., Burlington, VT 05405, USA 2 Department of Plant Pathology, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611, USA; blemmond@ufl.edu * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 November 2020; Accepted: 7 December 2020; Published: 10 December 2020 Abstract: Climate change driven food insecurity has emerged as a topic of special concern in the Canadian Arctic. Inuit communities in this region rely heavily on subsistence; however, access to traditional food sources may have been compromised due to climate change. Drawing from a total of 25 interviews among Inuit elders and experienced hunters from Cambridge Bay and Kugluktuk in Nunavut, Canada, this research examines how climate change is impacting food sovereignty and health. Our results show that reports of food insecurity were more pronounced in Kugluktuk than Cambridge Bay. Participants in Kugluktuk consistently noted declining availability of preferred fish and game species (e.g., caribou, Arctic char), a decline in participation of sharing networks, and overall increased difficulty accessing traditional foods. Respondents in both communities presented a consistent picture of climate change compounding existing socio-economic (e.g., poverty, disconnect between elders and youth) and health stressors affecting multiple aspects of food sovereignty. This article presents a situated understanding of how climate change as well as other sociocultural factors are eroding food sovereignty at the community-scale in the Arctic.

    Research Communicaon Ethnobotany of the Kiluhikturmiut Inuinnait of Kugluktuk, Nunavut, Canada Jonathan Duffy Davis1, Sandra Anne Banack2 Author address: 1Fullerton Arboretum, California State University, Fullerton, CA 92831, 2Instute for Ethnomedicine, P.O. Box 3464, Jackson, WY 83001 Received: September 24, 2012 Volume: 3:78‐90 Published: December 29, 2012 © 2012 Society of Ethnobiology Abstract: The disparity in floral diversity between tropical and arcc regions is reflected in a paucity of ethnobotanical research among arcc cultures. The Kiluhikturmiut Inuinnait are an Inuit subpopulaon who inhabit the Kikmeot Region of the Territory of Nunavut in Canada’s Arcc. We conducted an ethnobotanical survey in the Inuinnait hamlet of Kugluktuk to document the tradional uses of plants as food, materials, and medicine. Data were gathered through unstructured interviews, parcipant observaon, purposive sampling, and voucher‐specimen collecon of all plants used. Uses were documented for 23 plant species/types contained in 14 families. Nine species/types were eaten, six species/types were used as materials, and 12 species were used for medicine. Villagers shared common knowledge of plants used for food and materials; however, knowledge of medicinal plants was restricted to a single healer. We argue that specialized knowledge such as the use of medicinal plants is important to document especially when the number individuals using this knowledge is dwindling.
