Abstract:
Food insecurity is not a new issue in Nunavut, Canada, but it is one that is not yet resolved. In Nunavut, the Government of Canada primarily through Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada manages food security. In 2011, to aid the issue of food insecurity, the Government of Canada created the program called Nutrition North Canada (NNC). This paper will identify the values and mandate of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada and Government of Nunavut and state the current status, challenges, and health impact of food security in Nunavut. Lastly, it will determine if the Government of Canada is following the principles of good governance with the Nutrition North program, and suggest improving competencies like innovativeness, strategic thinking and building collaborative relationships by expanding agriculture and aquaculture in Nunavut to assist in tackling food insecurity.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the successes, failures, and lessons learned from the innovative experiments in decolonization that are currently underway in Bolivia and Nunavut, Canada. Bolivia and Nunavut are the first large-scale tests of Indigenous governance in the Americas. In both cases, Indigenous peoples are a marginalized majority who have recently assumed power by way of democratic mechanisms. In Bolivia, the inclusion of direct, participatory, and communitarian elements into the democratic system, has dramatically improved representation for Indigenous peoples. In Nunavut, the Inuit have also opted to pursue self-determination through a public government system rather than through an Inuit-specific self-government arrangement. The Nunavut government seeks to incorporate Inuit values, beliefs, and worldviews into a Canadian system of government. In both cases, the conditions for success are far from ideal. Significant social, economic, and institutional problems continue to plague the new governments of Bolivia and Nunavut. Based on original research in Bolivia and Nunavut, the paper finds that important democratic gains have been made. I argue that the emergence of new mechanisms for Indigenous and popular participation has the potential to strengthen democracy by enhancing or stretching liberal democratic conceptions and expectations.Este artículo analiza los éxitos, fracasos y lecciones aprendidas de los innovadores experimentos de descolonización que se están llevando a cabo actualmente en Bolivia y Nunavut, Canadá. Bolivia y Nunavut son los primeros experimentos de gobernanza indígena a gran escala en las Américas. En ambos casos, los pueblos indígenas son mayorías marginadas que recientemente han asumido el poder por medio de mecanismos democráticos. En Bolivia, la inclusión de elementos directos, participativos y comunitarios en el sistema democrático ha mejorado dramáticamente la representación de los pueblos indígenas. En Nunavut, los inuit también han optado por gestionar la autodeterminación a través de un sistema de gobierno público en lugar de un acuerdo de autogobierno específicamente inuit. El gobierno de Nunavut intenta incorporar valores, creencias y visiones del mundo inuit en el sistema de gobierno canadiense. En ambos casos, las condiciones para el éxito están lejos de ser ideales. Considerables problemas sociales, económicos e institucionales siguen afectando a los nuevos gobiernos de Bolivia y Nunavut. Pese a ello, y en base a investigaciones realizadas en Bolivia y Nunavut, el artículo da cuenta de importantes ganancias democráticas y propone que el surgimiento de nuevos mecanismos para la participación indígena y popular tiene el potencial de fortalecer la democracia al ampliar las concepciones y expectativas democráticas liberales.

Abstract:
AbstractHistorical records are valuable for assessing glacier change in the Canadian High Arctic. Ommanney’s (1969) detailed inventory of Axel Heiberg Island glaciers, based on photography from 1958–59, has been revisited, converted into digital format and compared to glacier extents mapped from 1999–2000 satellite imagery. Our results show that the island-wide ice coverage decreased by 15.92 km2 in the 42 year period, a loss of <1%. However, two trends are apparent: one of advance or minor retreat from basins hosting outlet glaciers from Müller and Steacie Ice Caps, and one of significant retreat, on the order of 50–80%, for independent ice masses, which include valley glaciers, mountain glaciers, glacierets, and ice caps smaller than 25 km2. If the contributions to ice advance of only three surging glaciers are removed, then the island-wide ice loss approaches 60 km2. Furthermore, it is notable that 90% of ice masses smaller than 0.2 km2 disappeared entirely during the 42 year study period, an observation confirmed by field studies. Successful predictions from the original inventory are highlighted and the likely mechanisms driving the observed advances and retreats are discussed.

Abstract:
Décrire la nuit quotidienne des Inuit de l’Arctique canadien vivant au nord de la Terre de Baffin, donner à lire et à comprendre leurs points de vue sur l’espace-temps nocturne, tenter de cerner et d’analyser les singularités de cette nuit tant au niveau du vécu que des représentations, sans négliger les éléments comparatifs provenant d’autres aires culturelles, voilà les principaux objectifs assignés à cette recherche. L’attention à la parole inuit traverse l’ensemble de la recherche. Voie privilégiée sous divers aspects, elle l’inscrit dans une démarche de type ethnolinguistique. Organisée en trois parties, la thèse présente dans un premier temps le cadre nocturne : nuit arctique, nuit au quotidien, cosmogonies, notions d’obscurité et de lumière. Puis, le vécu de la nuit est analysé à l’état de veille : influences et propriétés attribuées à la nuit sur la naissance, la maladie et la mort, sur les déplacements et la chasse, sur les rituels, les cérémoniels et les fêtes, ainsi que sur la peur. Enfin, le vécu de la nuit est envisagé dans son versant « endormi » : ethnographie du sommeil, expériences oniriques et esquisse d’une théorie du sommeil. Ces analyses, menées dans une perspective diachronique, mettent en évidence l’existence, chez les Inuit, de complémentarités et de continuums qui marquent les couples nuit/jour et obscurité/ lumière, lesquels sont éloignés des schèmes binaires ou dualistes qui sont les nôtres, mais que la pensée inuit tend à rejeter. Au-delà de la spécificité inuit, le présent travail se veut une contribution à une réflexion comparative et pluridisciplinaire, amorcée il y a plusieurs années à l’Université Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense, sur ce que pourrait être une anthropologie de la nuit
The objectives of this work are to describe the daily night of the Inuit living in Northern Baffin Island (Nunavut, Arctic Canada), to allow a reading and understanding of the Inuit’ own points of view on nocturnal space-time, and hence to try to grasp and analyse the singularities of this night at the level of both experiences and representations. As often as possible, comparative data emanating from other cultural areas has been included. An emphasis is put on language and the spoken word, which permeates through all of the research, fitting it into an ethnolinguistic approach. Structured in three parts, the work presents first the nocturnal framework: Arctic night, day-to-day night, cosmogonies, notions of darkness and light. Then the night experience is analysed while in the state of wakefulness: influences and properties attributed to the night relating to birth, disease and death, to travelling and hunting, to rituals, ceremonies and festivals, and to fear. Finally the night experience is considered in the state of sleep: ethnography of sleep, dream experiences, sketching of a theory of sleep. These analyses, carried out diachronically, highlight the complementarities and continuums which characterize the night/day and darkness/light pairings, which do not match the binary or dualistic schemes that are our own and that Inuit thought tends to reject. Beyond its specificity to the Inuit, this work is also a contribution to a comparative and multidisciplinary reflection, started several years ago at the University Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense, on what could be an anthropology of the night

Abstract:
Cette recherche doctorale examine les pratiques figuratives, les représentations symboliques et les enjeux socio-culturels des arts graphiques inuit dans les communautés de Kinngait (Cape Dorset) et de Pangniqtuuq (Pangnirtung) au Nunavut (Arctique canadien). Les notions de dessin (titiqtugaq-) et de parole (uqaq-) se placent au centre de la démarche qui est guidée par une approche interdisciplinaire, dans la perspective d’une ethnohistoire de l’art du dessin inuit. Trois parties structurent la démonstration. La première explore les configurations de la pensée inuit associées aux concepts d’art graphique, de représentation visuelle et de créateur, à partir de leur expression linguistique (chapitre II). Puis, une ethnographie de la scène artistique locale présente le dessin et les activités socio-économiques qui lui sont associées autour de la question du statut de l’artiste (chapitres III et IV). La deuxième partie envisage la figuration en rapport à la parole, à partir de la cosmogénèse et des techniques graphiques anciennes (chapitre V). Elle s’intéresse ensuite aux interactions entre le dessin et la parole sur un plan symbolique : dans le dessin, les pensées et les mots sont mis en actes (chapitres VI et VII). La dernière partie de la thèse définit l’art comme un élément de la dynamique socio-culturelle et politique des Nunavummiut. Le recours au dessin dans le cadre de projets communautaires est étudié à partir d’exemples récents (chapitre VIII), avant d’être replacé au centre des dynamiques relationnelles et des échanges socio-cosmiques dans une dimension ontologique (chapitre IX)
This doctoral research examines the themes of figurative practices, symbolic representations and the socio-cultural stakes specific to Inuit graphic arts in the communities of Kinngait (Cape Dorset) and Pangniqtuuq (Pangnirtung) in Nunavut (the Canadian Arctic). The notions of drawing (titiqtugaq-) and of speech (uqaq-) are central to the thesis, which is guided by an interdisciplinary approach within the perspective of ethno-history of Inuit sketch art. The thesis is organized into three parts. The first explores the configuration of Inuit thought associated with the concepts of graphic art, visual representation and creation, through their linguistic expression (Chapter II). In addition, ethnography of the local art scene looks at drawing and the socio-economic activities that are associated with it, in connection with the status of the artist (Chapters III and IV). The second part looks at figuration in relation to power words, from cosmogenesis and ancient graphic techniques (Chapter V). With this in hand, the second part then looks at the interactions between drawing and speaking from a symbolic perspective: through drawings, the thoughts and words are put into action (Chapters VI and VII). The last part of the dissertation continues the analysis by defining art as part of the socio-cultural and political dynamics of the Nunavummiut. Recourse to drawing, as a community project, is studied with reference to recent examples (Chapter VIII), prior to being placed, within an ontological dimension, at the centre of relational and socio-cosmic exchange dynamics (Chapter IX)

Abstract:
Dans une approche qui met à profit les apports de l’anthropologie nord-américaine et de l’ethnolinguistique européenne, la thèse étudie l’activité néologique inuit concertée au Nunavut, appelée taiguusiliurniq. Dans un premier temps, y sont examinés en diachronie les rapports de force linguistiques que les Inuit de l’Arctique oriental canadien ont entretenus au fil des siècles avec les explorateurs, les baleiniers, les marchands, les missionnaires, et enfin l’administration, et qui constituent l’arrière-plan sur lequel se sont arrimés les métiers de la traduction en langue inuit et les débuts de l’institutionnalisation de l’innovation lexicale. La deuxième partie s’intéresse à l’émergence de la terminologie propre à la sphère publique et aux défis que pose sa normalisation sur le plan juridique, technique, linguistique et culturel. La dernière partie est consacrée à un examen minutieux de cette terminologie, alimenté par des données issues d’un travail de compilation lexicale et par la description détaillée d’un atelier de développement terminologique. Sous la forme d’une synthèse, sont mises au jour les bases productives et affixes récurrents, l’adoption des modes de désignation, les questions liées au découpage du réel et enfin les caractéristiques et défis actuels de la langue inuit en tant que langue spécialisée, dans un contexte où la parole contribue à pérenniser les rapports d’autorité et de pouvoir. Élaboré sous la forme d’une matrice, le lexique analytique trilingue (inuktitut-français-anglais), placé en annexe, constitue un outil d’analyse voué à nourrir la réflexion d’ordre lexicologique engagée par les professionnels de la langue inuit au Nunavut. Mots clés : Inuit, inuktitut, ethnolinguistique, néologie, lexicologie, parole, autorité, pouvoir, Nunavut, Arctique canadien
Using North American anthropology and European ethnolinguistics in a combined approach, this thesis studies Inuit neological activity undertaken in concerted action, called taiguusiliurniq. The first part examines diachronically the relations of power as regards language maintained over centuries between the Inuit of Eastern Arctic Canada and explorers, whalers, merchants, missionaries and finally with the administration; all of these making up the background on which arose the professions of interpreters and translators working with Inuktitut, along with the early days of institutionalized neology. The second part deals with the emergence of the terminology specific to the public sphere and to the challenges of its standardization in legal, technical, linguistic and cultural terms. The last part offers a careful examination of this terminology, fueled by data extracted from the creation of a lexicon and by a detailed description of a terminology development workshop. In a synthetic format, recurrent verb and noun roots along with affixes are highlighted, as well as choices regarding modes of designation, and the current challenges of Inuit language as a specialized language in a context where speech plays a part in the perpetuation of the relations of power and authority as regards language. Developed as a matrix, the trilingual analytical lexicon (Inuktitut-French-English) placed in the appendix is designed as an analytical tool meant to feed the lexicological reflection that Nunavut Inuit language professionals are engaged in. Keywords: Inuit, Inuktitut, ethnolinguistics, neology, lexicology, speech, authority, power, Nunavut, Canadian Arctic

Abstract:
Le district aurifère de Meliadine se situe à 25 kilomètres au nord de Rankin Inlet, Nunavut (Canada), dans la ceinture archéenne de roches vertes de Rankin Inlet. L’assise rocheuse est composée de roches sédimentaires métamorphosées au grade des schistes verts incluant des Formations de Fer Rubanées (FFR) intercalées avec des roches mafiques. La minéralisation aurifère est distribuée le long de la faille Pyke. Des FFR abritent la minéralisation aurifère composée de veines de quartz riches en sulfures. Sept échantillons de till ont été prélevés parallèlement au sens de l’écoulement glaciaire à l’indice Mustang, le long d’un transect de 2 km. Deux échantillons ont été collectés en amont de l’indice et cinq dans le train de dispersion. La composition de la magnétite, de la tourmaline, de la scheelite, de l’arsénopyrite et de la galène a été investiguée par microsonde électronique et par ablation laser et spectrométrie de masse à plasma à couplage inductif. La composition chimique de ces minéraux indicateurs provenant des dépôts est comparée avec celle des grains des échantillons de tills. La signature chimique de la magnétite des FFR est plus riche en Al que la signature de la magnétite magmatique et métamorphique, qui elle est plus riche en V. Cependant elle se confond en partie avec celle de la magnétite hydrothermale. Des grains de tourmaline avec un profil de terres rares plat avec anomalie positive en europium sont présents dans des veines de quartz-carbonate des dépôts et dans certains échantillons de till en aval de l’indice Mustang. Des grains de scheelite avec un profil de terres rares en cloche et une anomalie négative en europium sont retrouvés à l’indice Mustang ainsi que dans certains échantillons en aval de l’indice. L’abondance des grains d’or ainsi que la scheelite et la tourmaline portant la signature géochimique des dépôts de Meliadine permettent de détecter l’indice d’or Mustang partiellement érodé par les glaciers.
The Meliadine Gold District is located about 25 kilometres north of Rankin Inlet, Nunavut (Canada), in the Archean Rankin Inlet greenstone belt. The bedrock is composed of greenschist facies metamorphic sedimentary rocks including Banded Iron Formations (BIF), interbedded with mafic volcanic rocks. Auriferous mineralization is distributed along the Pyke fault. Iron formations host the gold mineralization composed of sulfide-rich mesothermal quartz veins. Gold is mainly disseminated in BIF and quartz-carbonate veins. Seven till samples were collected parallel to the direction of ice flow at the Mustang showing, along a 2 km transect. Two are located up-ice and five down-ice in the dispersal train. The composition of magnetite, tourmaline, scheelite, arsenopyrite and galena has been investigated by Electron Probe Micro-Analyser and Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry. The chemical composition of these indicator minerals in the deposits is compared with the composition of grains extracted from the till samples. Magnetite from BIF is enriched in Al and bears chemical similarities with hydrothermal magnetite, whereas magnetite from magmatic and metamorphic sources has a higher content in V. Tourmaline from quartz-carbonate veins hosted by mafic rocks is characterised by a flat Rare Earth Elements (REE) pattern with a positive europium anomaly also found in tourmaline from till samples down-ice of the Mustang showing. Scheelite with a bell-shape REE pattern and a negative europium anomaly from the Mustang showing is also found in till samples within the dispersal train. Gold grain abundance, as well as the signature of scheelite and tourmaline reflecting the gold deposits allow detecting the partially eroded gold mineralization.

Abstract:
A high temporal resolution pollen diagram from a lake in the middle-Arctic region of the Boothia Peninsula, Nunavut, Canada, documents the history of the regional vegetation and climate for the past 7200 years. A diatom sequence had been previously prepared from this core. Major tundra pollen taxa in the core include Cyperaceae and Salix, with Cyperaceae comprising over 50% of the pollen in the early and late Holocene. Tree pollen, transported from far to the south, comprised a large percentage of the pollen sum, with Pinus accounting for 30% of the pollen in some levels of the core. Pollen percentages and concentrations of taxa typical of the middle-Arctic were highest in the mid-Holocene, corresponding to warm conditions. Decreasing pollen concentrations indicate cooling temperatures, with more rapid decreases occurring around 4200, 3800-3400, and 2500 cal yr BP. Pollen percentages of Salix, Cyperaceae, and Artemisia increased in the past 35 years in response to global warming. Reconstructions of July temperature using the modern analog technique showed the mid-Holocene (5800-2800 cal yr BP) was approximately 1°C higher than during the past 1000 years.

Abstract:
Cette étude analyse les facteurs de développement et d'assimilation de la minorité linguistique francophone du Manitoba à travers le prisme des représentations discursives des locuteurs recueillies lors d'enquêtes de type qualitatif et a pour objectif d'examiner comment les faits (historiques, politiques, scolaires, culturels et linguistiques) sont assimiles puis (re)traduits et exprimes par les individus. En nous aidant de plusieurs méthodes analytiques (analyses de discours, sociolinguistique interactionnelle, etc. ) Et en corrélant à la fois les critères objectifs et subjectifs, on observe différentes formes de survivance de la minorité franco- manitobaine, de la plus visible au sentiment linguistique le plus intime, caractéristiques d'identités en balancement. Par ailleurs, et malgré une politique linguistique canadienne revalorisant le statut du français, on constate souvent que les locuteurs franco-manitobains souffrent d'une diglossie anglais/français et d'une insécurité linguistique qui pèsent fortement sur leurs comportements langagiers et déteignent sur leur francité. Cet état de faits provoque parfois des conflits linguistiques - entre le même et l'autre, entre francophones et vis-vis des autres minorités - générant une schizoglossie voire même une assimilation et influe sur leurs performances langagières (réduction stylistique, surutilisation de variantes due au contact avec l'anglais, etc. ). A l'interface de cet intersecté empreint d'un mélange de deux langues en contact, on peut encore observer dans le parler franco-manitobain le maintien de dialectes français et franco-canadiens tels que le patois jurassien transplante il y a un siècle et le métis (pidgin franco cri (langue amérindienne)), véritables "lieux de mémoire" et de métissage d'identités franco-manitobaines en devenir.

Abstract:
This thesis characterizes the nutritional implications of climate change impacts on the traditional food system of Inuit in Nunavut, Canada. Both focus groups and food frequency questionnaires were used in collaboration with two communities to describe current climate change impacts on traditional food and define nutrient intake. Currently, both communities experience climate-related changes to important species which provide high levels of key nutrients. If climate changes continue to impact traditional food species, serious nutritional losses may occur unless healthy alternatives can be found. Policy should support Inuit communities to maintain optimal nutrition in the face of climate change.

Full text
Abstract:
A total of 109 eclogite xenoliths from the Jericho and Muskox kimberlites (Nunavut, Canada) were studied petrographically and mineralogically to constrain their depth distribution within the Northern Slave mantle. The eclogites are dominated by pyrope-almandine and omphacite with accessory rutile, apatite and olivine. Garnet-clinopyroxene thermobaromtry suggests that Northern Slave eclogites formed at 670 -1300 °C and 25 – 70 kbar. Eclogites were classified into Group A, B, or C based on mineral composition and into massive and foliated textural types. Group A Northern Slave eclogites may have formed as cumulates from mantle mafic melts, whereas Group B and C eclogites are interpreted as modified subducted oceanic crust. All Northern Slave eclogites were subjected to partial melting and recrystallization, which produced secondary high-MgO garnet and clinopyroxene, phlogopite, amphibole carbonates and spinel group minerals. The recrystallization was caused by an influx of carbonatitic and hydrous hot fluid. The most recent heating event immediately predating kimberlite eruption resulted in garnet and clinopyroxene zoning. Diamondiferous eclogites from the Northern Slave are always massive and belong mostly to Group A. The majority of diamondiferous eclogites from the Northern Slave occur at shallower depths than those from the Central Slave craton. The criteria for distinguishing diamondiferous eclogites based on high Na₂O content in garnet and high K₂O content in clinopyroxenes can be applied only to Muskox eclogites. The high Mg content in both garnet and clinopyroxene best distinguishes the diamondiferous eclogites from Jericho. A model with multiple subducted slabs of oceanic crust below the Slave craton is proposed. The deepest subducted slab (190 – 210 km) dated at 1.88 – 1.84 Ga below the Central Slave extends to shallower depths of 170 – 185 km below the Northern Slave. Another slab (1.95 – 1.91 Ga) that occurs at 140 – 160 km below the Central Slave may extend to the north where it becomes progressively thicker from imbrication. The shallowest (120 – 130 km) and oldest (2.67 – 2.6 Ga) slab occurs only below the Northern Slave. Eclogites of mantle origin formed in mafic magma chambers, which existed only below the Northern Slave at 135 – 150 km depths.

Full text
Abstract:
Perfluorinated carboxylates (PFCAs), sulfonates (PFSs) and perfluoroalkylsulfonamides (PFOSAs) have been detected in whole blood and serum of non-occupationally exposed humans, yet sources of exposure have not been fully elucidated. The objectives of this study were to estimate dietary exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), PFCAs (C7--C 11) and fluorotelomer unsaturated carboxylates (FTUCAs) for the general Canadian and Inuit populations prior to the phase-out of perfluorooctyl-sulfonyl production by 3M and voluntary reductions in PFOA emissions under the PFOA stewardship program. PFCs were measured in 65 archived composite food samples prepared for the 1998 Canadian Total Diet Study (TDS) and 68 archived traditional foods from Nunavut using a newly developed methanol extraction combined with a solid phase extraction clean up. Dietary exposure was estimated using food intake data available from studies carried out between 1997 and 1998 in southern Canada and Nunavut.
PFCs were detected in eight composite food samples from the Canadian TDS and in 61 traditional food samples. Elevated concentrations of PFCs were found in caribou liver (6.2+/-5.5 ng/g), ringed seal liver (7.7, 10.2 ng/g), polar bear meat (7.0 ng/g), beluga meat (7.0, 5.8 ng/g), luncheon meats (5.02 ng/g), cookies (2.7 ng/g), processed cheese (2.1 ng/g) and peppers (1.8 ng/g). Low levels of total PFCs (<1.5 ng/g) were measured in 41 traditional foods including: meat (caribou, ptarmigan, snow goose, bearded seal, walrus, black duck), berries, and fish (lake trout, arctic char). PFCs were not detected in beverages, unprocessed meats, breads, cereals and fruits from the TDS composite samples analyzed.
The ranges of estimated daily exposure to PFCs were between 2 and 59 ng-person-1 and 210 to 610 ng-person-1 for average Canadians and Inuit in Nunavut respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in mean PFC exposure levels for different age and gender groups in the general Canadian population. Inuit men in the 41 to 60 year old age group had statistically significantly higher estimated daily exposure to PFCs (p<0.05) than younger men and women from the same age group. This higher exposure was associated with the consumption of beluga muktuk, caribou liver and bearded seal intestine.
Traditional foods contributed a higher percentage to PFC exposure than market foods in all age and gender groups for the Inuit population. In general, caribou meat, arctic char meat and cookies contributed most to dietary exposure for Inuit, with caribou flesh contributing 43 to 75 percent to daily PFC dietary exposure. Dietary exposure for the general Canadian population was associated with the consumption of cakes and cookies, processed cheese, and regular cheese.
Levels of dietary exposure to PFCs estimated in these studies do not pose any significant health risk to either population based on current toxicological information.
