The descriptions include only a brief outline of the content. While some groups of videos may be listed below in the order that they appear on- line, the overall list is not sequential. A web link to each video has been provided at the beginning of the description. To refresh content/make space for newer uploads of IBC videos on IBC’s Channels, a number of the videos included in this document may have been deleted. For any URLs below that result in ‘page not found’ this is the reason. We apologize for the inconvenience. However, IBC retains all videos that have been posted on this platform on hard drives at the Inuit Film and Video Archives (IFVA) in Iqaluit, Nunavut, and in Ottawa, if they are of interest. People and Place Names Many Inuit names have multiple spellings. Also, due to time constraints, many of the 1 names in the credits could not be included in the descriptions.

Languages and traditions are threatened with extinction. When this happens, unique knowledge, beliefs and histories are wiped out. First Peoples understand well the challenges and tensions that can erode a sense of self and belonging. Yet, they have shown remarkable resilience in both preserving ancient identities and forging new ones. Whether building on the rich textures of the past or fearlessly transforming contemporary fashion, First Nations, Inuit and Métis use clothing to communicate the strength and meaning of their lives. An exploration of First Peoples dress is a compelling and emotional experience – one that must follow interwoven threads of community and spirituality, resistance and accommodation, history and innovation.

  • The Inuit Way a Guide to Inuit Culture

With more than ten thousand copies in print, The Inuit Way has helped a broad range of Canadians gain a better understanding and appreciation of our culture. The Inuit Way is much more than a simple introduction to traditional Inuit culture. It provides the reader a starting point for understanding the cultural underpinnings of modern Inuit. As a people, we have undergone immense changes in a generation. Despite the many changes our society has encountered, we retain strong ties to the land and our traditions. People coming to the north today see Inuit taking part in many aspects of modern life— working in an office environment, watching hockey on television, shopping at local stores, making political speeches. What they may not see at first is that Inuit continue to have a strong, unique culture that guides us in our everyday life— our close ties to the land, a dedication to community and a strong sense of self-reliance. The Inuit north has changed with astonishing speed since The Inuit Way was first published in 1989. At times, the rapidity of these changes has threatened to overwhelm us. However, Inuit are known for our tenacity and ability to adapt. Today our communities are strong and vibrant.
