On our arrival to Resolute we were told that we would be s t a > ing there for at least 2 y e a r s . After having spent 2 years in Re solute we asked to go back home but instead we were told to tell our relatives to move to Resolute so we did. There are animals in Resolute we were told and that was the reason, why we moved. There were alot of animals during that time and as long as there was something to eat we were well o f f , we didn't have time think of the future. There were also some w h i t e people living in the area and when they threw away scrap wood we collected them uiir til we had enough to build a home. There was also a police man around our area we were not permitted to go near the white people. When we had settled down completely teachers started cotir ing u p . W e w e r e still hunters and we were well off. Today oil and raining com­ panies have been coming up to Resolute and the places where we hunt caribou are now scarce, Only after many mining companies caue up w e started to realize that our land was being ruined. We have been trying to stop the com­ panies from coming up but now we don't have much of a chance. For many years now our w a t e r s and land have been d r i l l ­ ed. They have found many mineral resources which the whole world could make use of. Now it is a big thing and almost impossible to be stopped. I wish to say that befor your land is ruined try all you can to prserve it. It seems that I have gotten carried away in my letter and have w r i t t e n a long letter. But I will continue my story. Soon Resolute became a settlement many houses have been built and more people were m o v - ODDAaOPC OLPtP<]Po-j t-oAcCVLTD . <ind np<c-LC O ^ o X n d Cl_d<!

Finally we formed a community council and started having m e e t i n g . Now I have been going to all kinds of meeting all over the p l a c e . Soon a f t e r wards we founded out that the land were our houses were built was right at the end of a airstrip so we had to move our h o u ses somewhere else. The airplanes are very d a n g e r o u s , they never stop transporting fuel and maybe in a fog a plane would have crashed into a house. It was in 1975 that we had our houses moved in another area on a bay and some on a h i l l . We live closer to the shore now. It has been 2 years now that some development lias been taking place in R e s o l u t e . They are building a water plant for running w a t e r . They are also building a community h a l l , g o v e r n ment offices and s c h o o l s . We have heard that a p i p e lire will to be built near our area and it is very frightening. It io to start from here all the way to Southern Canada. We have tried to think of other ways to let the oil be transported such as by ships and by air but our ideas are never considered. Although the people of Baffin I s and and Quebec may not be c o n c e r n about this I know that if the pipe line is built every body will be affected and I also know that all Inuit will support each other if something ha:; to be done. The people of Northern Quebec have claimed some land and others and still working on land c l a i m s . I would be happy if the land that we are trying to claim will not be so ruined. It is wise that everyone work together although I know most people are concerned about what is going on. I thank you for printing my letter I will probably write again to T a q r a l i k .

U\H k »A< r / Taqralik, I think that the teachers that teach the young p e o p l e s in the Inuktitut language should start teaching their s t u d e n t s in a different dialect and stop teaching in there own d i a l e c t . I think a different dialect should be taught b e c a u s e people are now doing alot of t r a v e l l i n g and attending m e e t i n g in w h i c h all kinds of d i a l e c t s are s p o k e n . I also think that s t u d e n t s should be taught how to say certain thing3 properly or in a way that other people with different dialects w i l l u n d e r s t a n d . The reason for this is that even grown ups ignore something that is said if they can not understand the dialect which is being s p o k e n , this is also the same thiig for the younger people. This is why I'd like to see some other dialects taught in the schools of Northern Quebec I also feel that some kind of language commission be formed in Northern Quebec to preserve the old way of w r i t t i n g syllables such as the s y m b o l s V V U because they are being replaced with other ways of w r i t t i n g . If the language commission was formed it's other purposes would be to près erve the Inuktitut language and culture. I also think that we s h o uld not go ahead and start folio' wing the N . W . T . language c o m m i s s ion I am especially w r i t t i n g letter to the people who this h the syllabic courses. I t eac been teaching syllables for have past 5 years now and have the felt some changes in the way peoThank-you for your pie w r i t e . and space. time Davidie Niviaxie, G reat Whale River For more information I can be reached at this number 9 2 9 - 3 2 4 3 .

OFFSHORE ISLANDS NEGOTIATIONS BEGIN For about eight or nine days starting March 2 2 , a group of people from NQIA went on a field trip cover­ ing all the communities except Ivujivik and K i l l i n i k . The group was made up of the following peop 1 e : Char 1 ie W a t t , Niel C r i e g , Sandy G o r d o n , James Putugu and Mark A n n a n a c k . The purpose of the field trip was to inform the communities about the upcoming offshore islands n e g o t i a t i o n s . The "Power of A t t o r n e y " was also signed by the people who wanted NQIA to represent them in the offshore island n e g o t i a t i o n s . The communities were also told to expect a visit from another g r o u p , which is the H u n t i n g , F i s h i n g , and Trapping D e p a r t m e n t .

Sandy Gordon of the lands negotiating team, several NQIA's legal advisors, and a member of the association's information Depart­ ment accompanied Mr. Watt to Quebec City. Mr. Levesque attended the meeting by himselve. The results of the meeting were generally positive. However the begin­ ning of the meeting was somewhat un­ productive as both Mr. Levesque and the NQIA officials used this time to become more familiar with each other. Towards the end of the meeting the Premier show­ ed aserious interest in some of the ideas put forth by Charlie Watt. Basically Charlie Watt suggested that better lines of communications be opened up between Northern Quebec and Southern Quebec, that the provincial government and the Inuit be ready to work in closer co-operation in areas of common interest, and that the Quebec government take into account the cultural differences between the north and the south when formulating policies. The purpose of the meeting was to inform the new Parti Québécois government of general concerns of the Inuit. At the same time Charlie Watt became more familiar with how the new Premier, who has only in office for a few months, views Northern Quebec. Probably the most important result of the meeting was that Mr. Watt and Mr„ Levesque have met personally, and now have a better understanding of each other. This will most likly be of help in any future dealings with the top level of the provincial govern­ ment . o»qc- Charlie Watt Sc- J0 C b 11 THElWDRKiNGS LDCOLIGDVERNMENT c All the settlements in northern Quebec, George River, Fort Chimo, Leaf Bay, Payne Bay, Aupaluk, Koartak, Wakeham Bay, Sugluk, Ivujivik, Povungnituk, Akulivik, Inukjuak and Great Whale River will be erected as municipalities. What this means is the mayors, regional counsellors and counsellors will be elected in each municipality to form the local governments with letters patent incorporated from the Quebec Municipal Affairs. They will have all the powers in their municipality once the agreement is legislated. The regional counsellors will represent each municipality to the Kativik Regional Government. These Regional Counsellors will form the Regional Government. All these counsellors will hold office for two years and elections held every t o years . The local governments may acquire all moveable or immoveable property required for municipal purposes, enter into contracts, assist in the organization of works of charity, education, scientific, artistic or literary culture, training and social welfare enterprise of the population, maintain bodies for industrial, commercial or tourists promotion and generally exercise all the powers vested in it or which are necessary for the accomplishment of the duties imposed upon it. These powers are what the present Community Councils have been doing but the powers are more defined and recognized by the Federal and provincial governments.

This group led by an Italian, "Beppe T e n t i " have made the trip annually with a party of 10 to 16 p e o p l e . Taqralik talked with Beppe T e n t i , the man who is in charge of the dogteam a d v e n t u r e s . Beppe has been interested in Inuit ever he was a kid. He had read about Eskimos and wanted to know and learn more about how they lived. Beppe visited M o n t r e a l and talk­ ed with N o r d a i r . Nordair s u g g e s ­ ted the he go the Fort Chimo and find out more about d o g t e a m s . In 1 9 7 1 , Beppe organized the first dogteam trip which o r i g i n a ­ ted from Payne Bay to Leaf Bay and then to Fort Chimo. Beppe has o r ­ ganized and participated in all the trips. On the first trip, ten people plus an Inuk guide w e r e involved. Since then 12 to 16 p e ­ ople have come along for the trip and an Inuk guide have always b e ­ en hired. Some w o m e n have also made the trip.

The organizer is Italian but they also come from other countries in Europe besides Italy. Beppe Tenti have wondered and have wanted to live just like the Eskimos did in the old d a y s . On these t r i p s , they just live off the land by eating frozen caribou and fish. When asked what it w a s like to eat raw food, they said it w a s very good. A«A h<rn TJPa-o14 c*q e bLP b . BEPPE TENTI The main reasons for these trips is to find out what it's like to live off the land and also to attract t o u r i s t . Beppe e x p r e s ­ sed that the best part of these trips is knowing that he is h e l p ­ ing people keep their dogs and their tradition. The people have enjoyed their trips very m u c h , fullfilling their dreams to live likethe E s k i m o .

The dog­ team is almost completely disap­ peared but these dogteam trips have helped to keep the dogteam alive. Although the dogteam is very r e l i a b l e , the ski-doo with their continual b r e a k d o w n s has taken over . So far they had very few p r o ­ b l e m s .

In fact, there was no organized Social Services when I arrived in June 1971. At that time the D.I.A.N.D. was providing both Welfare and Social Services. Social Services were provided once a while by Mr. William Douhaniuk who travelled south to north to solve the problems. Before I came up north, the Que­ bec 0 overnment had not given me any specific training on social work up no­ rth. I really did not know what to ex­ pect. As a Social Worker, my employer gave me a job description saying that I had to do everything in all fields to help individuals, groups andcommunities in solving their problems. There was only one main mission that they gave me: it was to help to establish a So­ cial Aid office in Ibrt Chimo, which was the application of Bill 26 (Welfare) Besides my motivation and deter­ mination, the knowledge I aquired from my reading and studying on anthropology about Inuit and northern life were what helped me the most in not giving up. So, I began first by observing and consulting all Ch imo authorities who could give me some ideas. A few weeks after my arrival, I was working with an Inuk. We had no files or any­ thing at the time. We had to build up concernig the field of social work, and Social Services. With the best of my knowledge and previous field work and with the constant help from Inuit assistands, we slowly set up Social Services for the Ungava Bay communitites. We beg­ an first by concentrating our efforts on improving the communications bet­ ween patients and their families. Be- LaJ>cO CH_A< Aû.p<irnsc>c-< } « O d < : > Ç » V * 3 .

BY FRANCINE TREMBLAY C<»qc-B 19 C JVJ b < L - The New Quebec Government —Whot Mokes It Different. As a result of the provincial elections last November 15, a new Quebec Government has come into power. Robert Bourassa and the previous Liberal government lost the November election and are now out of power. The winners were the Parti Québécois and its leader, René Levesque, who is now the new premier of Quebec. Although provincial election have often resulted in such a change of government, the Parti Québécois victory over the Liberals has extremely important implications for the future of Quebec and Canada. There is one big difference between this new government and other previous governments. Unlike any other political party that has held power in Quebec, the new Parti Québécois government wants to see this province separate from Canada so that it can become an independent country. If this were to happen it would change a great many things. The people who would continue to live in an independent Quebec would no longer be Canadians, but would simply be Quebecers. We would no longer be living in a bilingual country, because Quebec would be a French speaking country. Also, we would no T<r%Ll L c^qc-» 0 _oA < 15-\Jn^J c r P O c r t ^ P L L , ^cr L a d<A b^ctrvD* . orvicAc <r,PAr o y L r f i j r bee r b<Lo- n r r t - [ > ^ «mo* c->? r^Jo-<be[>PL^ b<L JrO-r o- d < A r .

In such a situation Quebec City would become the home of the highest level of Government and the capital of the Québécois country. Although the Parti Québécois believes that Quebec should be an independent country, the new government is not yet taking any actions to have this province separate from Canada. The reason for this is that when the Parti Québécois won the Nov. 15 election they did not get a mandate from the people to make Quebec an independent state. During the election campaign the Parti Québécois promised that if they won they would provide a good honest government. They also promised that they would not take any actions to have Quebec separate from Canada until the idea was approved by a majority of the population in a referendum. The new government has said that they will be holding the referendum within the next few years but have not yet announced an exact date. When the referendum is held the question of whether or not Quebec should separate from Canada to form an independent country will be put directly to the people. If the majority of the population votes in favour the government will then start the process of making Quebec independent. If the people do not accept this then Quebec will remain a province of Canada and the Parti Québécois will continue to operate under the status of a provincial government. Because there is now a separatist government in power and because up coming referendum, there is a lot of discussion about the future of Quebec and Canada. It is an emotional issue and hardly a day goes by without the newspapers printing headline stories about the new government and the referendum. The debata for and against the proposed independence of this province is already beginning.

On the other hand the people who believe that Canada should not be split up argue that the French culture can be protected if a few changes are made in the present system. They also say that Quebec would suffer economically if it separated and that it would be unjust to the rest of the country. Furthermore there are people who believe that there is room for a compromise solution. A compromise would probably mean that Quebec would not totally separate and that it would be given a greater degree of independence in certain areas of government. 1 One interesting area about the debate over this province's future is that some people are asking what would happen to Northern Quebec if Quebec did decide to separate. Because Northern Quebec was added to the province by Canada, it has been suggested that Canada would also have the right to take it back if Quebec were to separate. It also has been suggested that since Quebec might separate from Canada, the Indians and Inuit of Northern Quebec might have the same right to separate from the province. Right now political analysts figure that about 20% to 30% of the Quebec population are ready to give their support to the idea of an independent Quebec. The remaining 70% to 80 % of the people are either uncommitted or are against the idea of breaking up Canada. However a great many French speaking Quebecers feel that their culture and language has suffered a position of disavandta ge in Canada. In fact it appears that many Quebecers who may not necessarily support separatism, do find some truth in the Parti Québécois claim that the French culture and language take second-place to the English culture and language. Therefore, if the Parti Québécois can convince these people that independence would be to their adv a n t a g e it is possible that a 22 c ^qc-" b r^?c<r - n A T ^ l e O P L ^ " d < A b<*lC A a r V <c-<3o-1 A^.A -oo-To-, n ^ A < T P [ > d <lc_AT ACLTO- -oo-ccr LDA<c-<IPe[>PLLC I 9 6 0 ATOrTL>J . { c b c c Co- <ip\j<i - nPA<r P O d < i c A i dP<ir.

One of the reasons why the Parti Québécois believes that Quebec should separate from Canada can be found in the history of this country. In fact we can go back a 110 years when Canada was first formed. At that time, the French and English speaking people got together to form this country. In a sense the two groups became partners in the building of Canada. The idea was that the new country would be to everybody's advantage and that the culture and language of both English and French would benefit. In other words Canada was supposed to develop into a large bilingual country based on both the French and English cultures. Now, a 110 years later, the people who support separatism say that things haven't quite worked out that way. They say that Canada has become more and more an English country while French has more or less limited to Quebec. They argue that business and industry in Canada and Quebec are basically controlled by the English speaking population. They also say that if things continue as they are, the French Canadians will eventually loose their culture and language. According to them the only way this can be prevented is separating from Canada and making Quebec an independent country. Premier Rene Levesque, who for the past ten years has been one of the main leaders of the independence movements, has told English audiences (mainly Americans and English Canadians) that Quebec must play a greater role in its economic development. He also said that Quebecers must have more control in the area of communications, with such things as mass-media. He points out that this is needed because it has a direct impact on cultural development. Still speaking to the same audience, Mr. Levesque explained that Quebecers intend to build their society and control their environment in a way that suits their tastes and aspirations.

Cd< c Basically, the argument is that Quebecers themselves must have control over their future if their language and culture is to be protected. And according to Parti Québécois the best way of achieving such control is to form an independent Quebec country. There is one interesting thing about the argument that Quebec should have greater control over its economic development, its environment, and its future so that it properly protects its culture and language. This is very similar to what the Inuit have been telling the south. In fact one of the basic aims of the Makivik Corporation is to ensure that the Inuit play a greater role in the economic development of their territory. In the area of communications, the Inuit too would like more control, especially when television comes to Northern Quebec. And it goes without say­ ing that the Inuit also want to build their society and control their environ­ ment in a way that suits Inuit tastes and Inuit aspirations. What it comes down to is that the Inuit, like the Québécois, would like to see their culture and language prosper in their territory. In this sense Parti Québécois Government and the Inuit both have the same problems. The new provincial govern­ ment is trying to protect the French language and culture from the treat of being overwhelmed by the larger English speaking population of North Amercia. The Inuit are trying to protect their language and culture from the fast pace of change brought about by the south. While the Parti Québécois seeks to bring home controlof areas that affect the French culture of Quebec, it will be in­ teresting to see how the new govern­ ment will respect the Inuit's efforts to gain control of factors that affect their northern culture. It is still too early to tell what the new government's attitude to­ wards northern Quebec will be. However, it appears that the Parti Québécois government's door will be open to the Inuit. Charlie Watt has already met Premier Rene Levesque to discuss the general concerns of the Inuit of Northern Quebec. 24 w c q«r b b SAo/ C b b d<A d c c b<LObrT OtOPH-cP Al>c-SLPO< D <; A-^dPTc-j P<rN>LC CLo- .DOT.

U sometime in the years ahead, they'd move back to Northern Quebec, they would have all the same rights as those that has been in Northern Quebec all the time. The enrollment commission is also advertising through newspaper in Southern Canada for those that are married to the kabloonas. They are also eligible to enroll in the agreement. When they answer the advertisements, the commission will send them applications to fill out. When eligible persons writes down where they were born, the forms will be send to the community and be approved by the local Community Council, then send back to the south for registration.

The instructors, two of them were from the Table Tennis Federation of Quebec. After one week of training in table tennis all the trainees went back to their settlements to teach the local students that all go to school about the sport that they were taught. They were also to organize local table tennis teams. After a couple of weeks at their settlements teaching, they went back to Great Whale River to take a different course in arctic sports. Their teacher this time was Tommy Smith of Inuvik,N.W.T who is the world record holder for doing the airplane. At the same time this course was taken, an Arctic Sports Tournament was in northern Quebec for the first time. Look for the story elsewhere in this edition. The trainees were the organizers and judges for the garnet-. Again they went back home to Leach table tennis and arctic sports for the local students. While the trainees are at their settlements they get to use the gymnasuim everyday to teach the students. Before this program ends in M ay they will also be taught volleyball, wrestling and basketball. David Nowdlak from Frobisher Bay has also been taking this course since the Baffin Inuit Association does not have a Sports & Recreation department yet. When the course is finished the Baffin Inuit Asssociation will have it's own Sports & Recreation department. G raduates of the court-e will re-R cieve college credits from Dawson College in Montreal that will go toward a rec­ reation diploma. Individual sports fed-R erations involved in the project are awarding coaching certificates to those whose successfully complete and pass each clinic. After spring camping, the Sports & Recreation department is hoping that the sports trainees will be able to find jobs with the local school board and for the Community Councils, Ac-Oo- s r < « c r <iaJ>c_<T-<R>.

In the spring of 1964, two people were returning from a hunt when they spotted three killer whales, 2 adults and one baby. When they arrived at the settlement, they said that there were three killer whales not too far, then all the available men got their rifles and went after them. The two adults were shot until they died and sunk which left the baby. It was shot and harpooned for three days and three nights. Whoever had rifles of any kind were shooting the whale. The rifles were ranging from .22 to a shotgun. When darkness came, some of the men went home to sleep while others stayed back. The next day, those that had rest came back to shoot the whale while those that stayed overnight went home to sleep. At first the whale was active and fast, it dived and came up about 15 yards further in a few seconds. The whale had lots of bullets in it's body. When it was harpooned, the rope kept snapping. By the time it died, the whale had 8 harpoons pierced to the body. When they ran out of harpoons, the people made some while they were at home. When they harpooned it, the people tied a barrel but it just crushed from the force of the water and it sank but still it was dragged by the whale. Just before it died, another two barrels were tied to it and the people holding on to the ropes. The whale had been going much slower than before so the people waited for the whale to die c <US-A<rtVLc-Çr >^><T» Ta.

It took only half a day to finish the meat and only the bones and the intestines were left. After three days and nights of shooting, There were hardly any bullets left. Then afterwards the people went to Payne Bay and got some bullets free from the Hudson's Bay Company store. Finally I have never heard of any other Inuit killing a killer whale. c £ ç c % c c c c c c s 1 < j p o . r i > C A a.f>A<]si>^ b D ^ b n r v d ' O c ^ i o - d-^or <lCf>P $ 1 , 0 0 T < P r , rrC>APLJP <3c.V bD^b n rvd.r> : Northern Quebec Inuit Association P.O.

The archaeologist started out as a small group. In the b e g i n n i n g , they depended on the local people to carry out their work. They hired Inuit guides to move them around in canoes. In May of last y e a r , some Inuit helped construct a house on the Island. After that, the archaeologist started coming for the summer's w o r k . This time they had their own canoe and did all their work without hiring any Inuit w o r k e r s . The archaeologist first got the Community Council's permission to work on the Island. At first the local people were happy about the situation since there was work for some people and the archaeologist were more open about their work. But now they are working only amongst themselves and they wouldn't let people see what they have found. There used to be plenty of seals and other wildlife around the Island but the people noticed there is a decreased num­ ber of seals around the area now. The Community Council of Koartak is not very happy about this. The group is also studying rock f o r m a t i o n , the age of rocks and the type of rocks in the area The area was once flooded so they m t <;b < fpc^r d<] ci> c •on Dc So-<io- DcP o-<in ^ r - i r - m c v L ^ Tpor c 'cW^O* o-<in So-Oo-Dr <3do-LeI>c-D. <H>oC[>P c Dc •<in ^LcD CdO DcP a < n c c Cd<!

They have asked people if they have ever found on shells on dry land to help their work. The archaeologist are working on a five-year plan. With one year already gone, they still have four years to go. They are expected to be back in late spring to continue their studies. If the archaeologist wish to continue their work, they have to co­ operate with the community of Koartak. c C<d<3 DcP cr<in ^ b O P L P ^ T P O ^ o - , V PcP t > ^ q A t-POV L T C < ] L J t-oADLAC Ot-qA T P C J C CAa ^ b O P L P ^ A <PPCo >_^t>PLPAo-[>l_ C d < D a a-<in bOPbP<D %-> AL< O c ^ c - ^ J a A L V T P C r .
