This page is very text laden, but highly informative. In April 1999, a vast majority of the territory now held within the Northwest Territories will be passed to the Aboriginal people in the north of Canada: to become the first Aboriginal self-governed territory in Canada. Nunavut becomes the first territory to enter the Federation of Canada since Newfoundland joined in 1949. Nunavut, subject to the Canadian Constitution and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, will be a public government with all of its citizens having the same rights. But because the population will be about 85 per cent Inuit, it will reflect that reality. Long negotiations with the Northern Aboriginal people (in particular the Inuit) resulted in a treaty process to finally give them dominion over their own lands. These lands in the Keewatin and Baffin Island Territories in Canada were largely ignored until the late 20th century. The Nunavut heartland of the eastern arctic had very few associations with the western N.W.T. until the early 1970s when administration based in Ottawa was moved to Yellowknife with development of the N.W.T. Territorial Administration. That administration had opened for business in 1967, but only concerned itself with the western area until it could digest the complications of a whole new government system. Not only had the eastern and western NWT been administered separately, but in the early 1960s both Conservative and Liberal governments had been in the process of dividing the N.W.T. to create an eastern Nunatsiaq territory.

April 1, 1999 , marks a new beginning in Canada's North. It is the creation of Nunavut, a new territory born from the eastern part of the Northwest Territories. It's the first time Canada's boundaries have changed since Newfoundland joined Confederation in 1949. Inside this section, you can find out more about this new, vital part to the north's future.
New territory facing same old problems
IQALUIT, Nunavut (AP) No one expected miracles a year ago when a fifth of Canada became the Inuit homeland called Nunavut. Widespread poverty, unemployment, crime, substance abuse and a high suicide rate continue to beset the Arctic region as large as Western Europe with a population of 25,000. Yet the head of Nunavut's 19-seat legislature, the first in Canada or the United States to be dominated by native Americans, says tiny steps toward growth and development have occurred.

The crusaders wore the crosses on their clothes as a distinguishing mark, since they had no uniform to indicate their identity. in succeeding crusades, each nation was designated by a cross of a different colour. For a long time, France used a red cross on its banners, while England carried a white cross. In the course of history, red and white alternated as the national colours of France and England. White and red were officially designated as the colours for Canada in the Proclamation of the Royal Arms of Canada by King George V in 1921.

10. Kugaardjuq School, Pelly Bay, Nunavut, Canada
A Short history of. Kugaaruk. Until April 1, 1999, Pelly Bay was part of the NorthwestTerritories. On that date, canada's newest Territory, nunavut was born.
http://www.polarnet.ca/~pellybay/history.html
A Short History of Kugaaruk In 1968, the Canadian government transported thirty-two prefabricated houses into Pelly Bay. Until then, the Arviligjuaqmiut lived a semi-nomadic lifestyle. Small family groups, living in igluit (igloos) and skin tents, followed the caribou that sustained them. Occasionally, groups would come together to hunt and fish. In 1937, when the Catholic mission was established here, groups would meet for Christmas celebrations at Kugaarjuk (the mouth of the Kugajuk River), then separate again to pursue their nomadic cycle. The first Catholic missionary, Father Pierre Henri, arrived in 1935. He built a small stone chapel/house, but soon learned that stone wasn't a good insulator in this harsh climate. Instead, he adopted Inuit ways, living in an iglu and wearing traditional Inuit clothing during the cold months. He and Father Franz Van de Velde, who remained a powerful force in the community until 1965, built the stone church in 1941. Recently, the Hamlet of Pelly Bay received a government grant to restore the deteriorating church as a historic site. Until 1955, when the DEW (Distant Early Warning) Line construction began, people here had almost no contact with the outside world. In 1829, English explorer John Ross camped nearby, but no whalers or Hudson's Bay Co. trading post ever came to Pelly Bay. Ice jams around the islands guarding the Bay's mouth made access almost impossible.

History and Government
History: The first inhabitants of Canada are thought to have moved across the Bering Straits from Siberia during the last Ice Age. Traces of up to a dozen distinct groups of Inuit (Eskimos) have been discovered across the far northern regions of North America. The first Europeans to reach Canada were descendants of Norse seafarers who had settled in Iceland and in Greenland during the ninth and tenth centuries. Remains of three Norse settlements have been identified on the eastern seaboard, but these were evidently not permanent.
From 1968 to 1984, politics were dominated by the charismatic figure of Pierre Trudeau, leader of the Liberal Party and four times Prime Minister. After his retirement from politics in 1984, his party was eventually ousted by the opposition Progressive Conservatives under Brian Mulroney. Under Mulroney, the Québec issue came to the fore once more. Several attempts were made to resolve it by negotiation, principally the 1990 Meech Lake accord, but all of these foundered on the objections of other provinces or the refusal of the Québecois to accept what they felt to be inadequate provisions.
