    Syracuse University SURFACE Dissertations - ALL SURFACE August 2019 Nunavut, A Creation Story. The Inuit Movement in Canada's Newest Territory Holly Ann Dobbins Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/etd Part of the Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons Recommended Citation Dobbins, Holly Ann, "Nunavut, A Creation Story. The Inuit Movement in Canada's Newest Territory" (2019). Dissertations - ALL. 1097. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/1097 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This is a qualitative study of the 30-year land claim negotiation process (1963-1993) through which the Inuit of Nunavut transformed themselves from being a marginalized population with few recognized rights in Canada to becoming the overwhelmingly dominant voice in a territorial government, with strong rights over their own lands and waters. In this study I view this negotiation process and all of the activities that supported it as part of a larger Inuit Movement and argue that it meets the criteria for a social movement. This study bridges several social sciences disciplines, including newly emerging areas of study in social movements, conflict resolution, and Indigenous studies, and offers important lessons about the conditions for a successful mobilization for Indigenous rights in other states. In this research I examine the extent to which Inuit values and worldviews directly informed movement emergence and continuity, leadership development and, to some extent, negotiation strategies.

  • CHEF DE MISSION FINAL REPORT 2012 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES Team Alberta North, Chef De Mission
    CHEF DE MISSION FINAL REPORT 2012 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES Team Alberta North, Chef de Mission Section I Evaluation of Performance of the Host Society Registration and Accreditation The registration was set up well in advance but again some of the suggested changes were not implemented (i.e. coaches assigned to a team) The system is easy to input information by participants. We really appreciated receiving the accreditation tags in advance to the arrival of our participants so that Mission Staff could distribute them to their assigned sport teams. Recommendations In the future all contingents continue to receive from the Host Society the registration system no later than the beginning of December to assist in ensuring the completeness of the registrations and forms as well as providing an adequate time frame for the participants to register. The Host Society waiver form must accompany the registration system when it is provided to the Chefs. That the contingents be allowed to add their own custom fields on the registration form and attach their own documents, e.g. Team Alberta North Code of Conduct. Continue to receive the accreditation tags in advance of the participants arrival so that the contingents can verify and distribute them to the teams Welcome/Arrival Services Arrival at the airport and transferring of participants to busses for school drop offs was very smooth. Once the luggage and sports equipment was loaded, it appeared that it arrived at the schools and sport venues fairly efficiently. Team Alberta North did not have any lost luggage. Luggage and equipment tags were provided in advance but similarity between luggage and equipment tags caused some confusion.

    Arctic Winter Games Games Policies Chef de Mission Final Report 2012 Arctic Winter Games Jeff Seeteenak - Team Nunavut, Chef de Mission Section 1 Evaluation of Performance of the Host Society Registration and Accreditation • Was pre-games registration convenient and functional? • The Kimik registration program continues to improve. It has become more user friendly. Receiving the accreditation badges before the athletes is great as some teams are not arriving on the same flights. This also gives us an opportunity to go over the badges for any misprints or duplicates. • Did the accreditation system at the Games work well? • They accreditation system was great at the games, the volunteers were excellent and great to work with when missing badges need to be replaced or late accreditations need to be printed. • Provide comments or recommendations. • The one area that I would like to see is an improved filtering system during the registration process. Right now the system filters by sport but only listed numerically as to when they got into the database. Another step in the filter would be great, by team with in the sport. Example filtering Juvenile boys’ soccer and only the division and gender is shown. • Continue to provide badges before athletes arrive. Welcome/Arrival Services • Was the arrival of your team handled in a timely manner with a minimum of confusion? • As our flights arrived there were busses waiting arranged by accommodation site. There was little wait time which was appreciated by all. • Bags that had their tags still on were delivered to the accommodation site. Bags with no tags were loaded off at the terminal.

  • 2012 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES Team Northwest Territories, Chef De Mission - Doug Rentmeister
    CHEF DE MISSION FINAL REPORT 2012 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES Team Northwest Territories, Chef de Mission - Doug Rentmeister Section I Evaluation of Performance of the Host Society Registration and Accreditation Very few issues with the gems system leading up to the games, after our Territorial Trials there was a period where individuals had difficulty accessing the system as there seemed too many participants were trying to access at the same time but this got cleared up in a day so it did not evolve into a greater issue. Need to commend the committee and volunteers in this area as they were very responsive to our needs and concerns. This is specific to Team NWT but we need to access the registration system the September prior to the games because of our selection process being initiated at that time and preventing us from having to register the same participant 2-3 times. We have requested this for the last two games but in each instance the system wasn’t ready, we don’t understand why as the forms/information do not vary significantly games to games. Continue to feel that there should be a requirement for any Chef and Asst to meet with the person in charge (in person, prior to the games) of this area to go through and update their team list and accreditation needs…it would save contingents a HUGE headache and allow them an opportunity to deal with those participants that did not register on time or had missing information effectively and quickly. 1 Welcome/Arrival Services Welcoming group was exceptional and very accommodating, enthusiastic; whomever was responsible took their job seriously and was very well prepared.
