OPENING
MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY.
Nunavut was created by Inuit unwilling to accept the status quo – visionaries who saw opportunity when others despaired. Trailblazers who managed to achieve agreement when the cards were unfairly stacked.
Nunavut was created by Inuit who wanted to protect and promote their way of life, language and heritage – visionaries who achieved a unique and historic agreement that secured Inuit rights and benefits
Perseverance, courage, resilience, and hope define our people.
