Chesterfield Inlet

La collectivité de Chesterfield Inlet est située sur la côte nord-ouest de la baie d’Hudson, un peu au nord de Rankin Inlet. Sa désignation traditionnelle est Igluigaarjuk, ce qui signifie « endroit où il y a peu d’iglous ».

Comptant 390 habitants, Chesterfield Inlet est considérée comme la plus « ancienne » collectivité de l’Arctique, remontant aux années 1920. Toutefois, il y a bien longtemps, avant même la venue des Blancs dans la région, la vie communautaire avait été établie à Igluigaarjuk. Les restes d’un complexe de huttes de terre ont été trouvés tout près à l’extérieur du village, où l’on croit que plus de 700 personnes résidaient avant le contact avec la culture européenne. De nos jours, le sentier historique de Chesterfield Inlet illustre la riche histoire de la région.

Dans l’Arctique canadien, les infrastructures subissent les effets des changements climatiques – fonte du pergélisol, érosion côtière et modification de la configuration des températures et des précipitations. C’est ce qui a poussé le Conseil canadien des normes à mettre sur pied l’Initiative de normalisation des infrastructures du Nord (ININ) afin de créer des normes spécifiques.

What is Mercury/Methylmercury and what are its properties and potential harmful effects on the arctic?

Mercury (Hg) is a toxic heavy metal that changes into various chemical forms through geochemical processes.  It is an element that occurs naturally in the environment but with industrialization, humans have altered itc cycle by adding more mercury in the water, air and soil.

The Nunavut Climate Change Partnership (NCCP) was a collaborative partnership between the Government of Nunavut, Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada, and Natural Reosurces Canada to build capacity for community-level adaptation planning.
