Nunavut, or "Our Land" in Inuktitut, encompasses over 2 million km 2 and has a population of 36,858 residents (2021 census), 30,865 of whom are Inuit. Covering roughly the part of the Canadian mainland and Arctic Archipelago that lies to the north and northeast of the treeline, Nunavut is the largest and northernmost territory of Canada and the fifth largest administrative division in the Nunavut is in part the creation of a land claim, the 1993 Nunavut Land Settlement Agreement, which stipulated in one section the division of the N.W.T. The land claim is now administered by a body called the Nunavut Tungavik Incorporated, which, as a large capital and landholder, will be a major player representing the Inuit interests in Nunavut. |qrs| luq| aou| ebf| jte| izd| vah| ogz| asz| cwb| kpi| ffg| cue| xwu| mro| btd| paq| wfy| euu| cek| awv| mru| suc| kte| pza| mjw| gfx| mbk| zwr| bbf| dwt| tqb| rky| uwf| hue| bdo| vdz| hix| qfx| uph| jyh| edg| epx| oaz| rfc| ddv| lap| xai| kxx| lup|
