    August 11, 2020 Kaviq Kaluraq Chairperson c/o Karen Costello Nunavut Impact Review Board Cambridge Bay, NU Sent via Email: [email protected] Re: North Baffin Community Group Reply to Baffinland Iron Mines (“Baffinland”) August 4, 2020 Motion Re Setting of Hearing Dates for Mary River Phase 2 Assessment Dear Ms. Kaluraq: In response to the Motion circulated by the Nunavut Impact Review Board (NIRB) or Board) with a request for replies, the North Baffin Community Group, made up of the Hamlets and Hunters and Trappers Organizations of the five communities potentially affected by the Mary River Phase 2 proposal, submit based on the grounds below, that the August 4, 2020 Notice of Motion filed by Baffinland, should be dismissed. Baffinland suggested in its motion that it is fair to all parties for the Board to reconvene the Public Hearing for the Phase 2 Proposal on October 30, 2020. We submit that it would be premature to schedule a Hearing until such time as a Technical Meeting and Pre-Hearing Conference are held to determine whether the proposal is sufficient to be heard at a hearing, and to determine issues such as the timing, location and format of a Hearing. It would also be inappropriate for the NIRB to determine next steps based on a mo- tion from Baffinland. It is not fair to all parties to reconvene the Public Hearing in October. Many organizations par- ticipating in the ongoing assessment of Phase 2, including our Hamlets and HTOs, have suf- fered significant limitations on our ability to engage in a normal workload while still remaining vigilant in addressing Covid-19 related safety measures.

    evue canadienne V olume 41, No 1 Arbre généalogique politique: Les liens familiaux au sein du Parlement du Canada 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SPRING 2017 La masse actuelle de la Chambre d’assemblée de la Nouvelle Écosse est en usage depuis qu’elle a été offerte à l’Assemblée le 5 mars 1930 par le juge en chef Robert Edward Harris, quatorzième juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et sa femme. Faite de vermeil, elle mesure 4 pieds de hauteur et pèse environ 18 livres. Ses quatre faces représentent respectivement la couronne royale, les armoiries de la Nouvelle Écosse, le grand sceau actuel de la province (celui conféré avant la Confédération) et la silhouette d’un Président vêtu de ses habits officiels. Sont également gravés sur la masse la fleur de mai, emblème floral de la Nouvelle Écosse, et le chardon écossais. La masse a été fabriquée en Angleterre par Elkington and Company, Limited. M. et Mme Harris souhaitaient que leur don de la masse reste anonyme. Le premier ministre de l’époque a respecté leur désir, mais a demandé que leur legs puisse être reconnu ultérieurement au moyen d’une inscription gravée sur la masse. Par conséquent, dans son testament, le juge en chef a chargé ses exécuteurs de faire graver l’inscription suivante sur la masse et d’assumer les coûts des travaux à même sa succession : « Cette masse fut présentée à la Chambre d’assemblée de la province de la Nouvelle Écosse par l’honorable Robert E. Harris, juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et par Mme Harris, en mars 1930.

    --. TRANSLATION March 9/2020 Minister of Health, Hon. Patty Hajdu, MP Premier of Nunavut, Hon Joe Savikataaq, MLA Tununiq MLA, David Qamaniq, MLA I am writing this letter to the Premier of Nunavut and Canada's Health Minister. I want the Member of the Legislative Assembly for Tununiq, David Qamaniq, to table my letter in the House and make use of it. Please raise this issue with the Premier of Nunavut from a health perspective. I am just a member of the public, a voter. I am also an elected person in Pond Inlet. I am recognized as a Nunavut Land Claims beneficiary and fully recognized by beneficiaries only. I believe that they should be cared for more. I present to you, Member for Tununiq, David Qamaniq and to you, Premier of Nunavut, Joe Savikataaq, these issues for your consideration. Dogs weren't allowed to eat cooked meat as their bones might become brittle and more susceptible to breakage. All the children living in separate communiti~s were taught the same morals and values by being given advice and they were required to do things that had to be done. Nowadays we shop for things we like and buy food that we like from the stores. Maybe that is what is causing illness. I am writing to you because I think you, as legislators, should consider this seriously. I am not a health care professional by any means. I am just telling you what I know. I hear that you are more susceptible to illness if your blood is thin.
