Nunavut Day
July 9, 2021

July 9th is Nunavut Day. This year’s Nunavut Day will mark 28 years since the Parliament of Canada passed two important pieces of legislation, leading to the creation of Nunavut as a recognized territory within Canada. Nunavut, which in Inuktitut means ‘our land,’ is rich in tradition, culture, and sense of community, thanks to generations of Inuit who have cared for and lived on the land for millennia. From Sanikiluaq to Grise Fiord, Nunavut is home to vast landscapes, vibrant languages, and many peoples. Forward-looking, resilient, and diverse, Canada’s youngest territory embodies our promise as a country. Happy Nunavut Day to all Nunavummiut and Canadians. Please stay tuned for the Prime Minister’s statement.
