Baker Lake Hundreds of youth bopped to the music and heard inspiring messages from two young Kivalliq role models during Hip Hop Week in Baker Lake this past week. The week was co-planned by Kathleen Merritt of Rankin Inlet, who also played an active role in the proceedings, along with featured artist and event co-ordinator Nelson Tagoona of Baker. Merritt works with the National Art Centre to manage its Music Alive Program (MAP) in Nunavut. MAP works with youth in the communities to educate and train in both music and leadership. Merritt said MAP was behind a Hip Hop Week held in Kugluktuk this past year which also featured Tagoona. She said the week includes workshops on beatboxing, throatsinging and hip hop techniques, the promotion of healthy living and a sessionending music concert. "The National Arts Centre was interested in holding an event in Baker Lake, being how it's Nelson's (Tagoona) home community," said Merritt. "Then, during the year, the RCMP approached Nelson to ask if he'd be interested in working with them on addictions awareness. "We decided to combine the two, and the entire week has been funded through the National Arts Centre and the RCMP and co-ordinated by Nelson and the local RCMP. "It was a good combination to promote the music and healthy living at the same time to Baker youths." Merritt said Tagoona developed the workshops to correspond with the different age groups in Baker, from elementary to high school. She said she also helped plan, and took part in, workshops throughout the week with local students. "I worked with Paula Rumbolt to do throatsinging workshops with the students. "We owe a big thanks to First Air and the Government of Nunavut for helping make this possible. "The kids just loved it, and they were all very keen to learn and asked a lot of questions. "I was surprised to hear the students really hadn't heard all that much throatsinging before, but that's mainly because the Baker elders do a different style of throat singing than you hear a lot of the young people doing." Tagoona said he finds working with youth to be nothing short of phenomenal. He said he was amazed by how intently the students listened to what he had to say. "With the younger kids, I talked about music basics, had a good time rocking out with them, and taught them the basics of beatboxing and rhyming," said Tagoona. "With the older youths, say Grade 7 and up, I talked about the meaning of depression and how to deal with it if it enters your life. "I talked about how depression is a sickness of the mind, which can really drag you down at times. "I talked about depression and sulking from a metaphorical perspective to relate it to one of my songs (Depression Darkness), and to explain how I use my songs and lyricism to help clear out any bad feelings I may have." Tagoona has been carving a nice career for himself as a musician during the past few years. His success is a powerful exclamation point to a message given to the youths that if they're truly passionate about something – anything – they can succeed at it. Tagoona said he couldn't have asked for anything more in how well the students listened and participated in his workshops. He said having prizes from nuSchool to give away during the workshops was a pleasant addition. "The RCMP accessed the funding to provide the prizes and the kids really loved them. "They were really cool prizes in shirts, sunglasses, caps and toques. "It was really neat to be partnered with the RCMP in this because I was more focused on dealing with feelings through addictions awareness. "I talked to the kids about having a positive self-image, and I told the older youths the reality is that there's really nothing special, or good, about drinking or getting high." Tagoona said at the end of his workshops, he talks about the four main highlights of teaching them about metaphors (how to turn depression and sulking into a positive perspective), discipline, responsibility and respect. He said he tries to teach the youths about responsibility without the need for discipline. "I touch on the elders a lot when I talk about respect. "I talk to them about Inuit life long ago, and I talk about the real meaning of Inuit culture and relate that to hip hop culture. "You see their eyes really start to open when they start realizing just how important our elders really are. "I'm proud of these kids because they really learned a lot and took a lot away from the workshops." bf l A eÿe m4WZz 7 4 KIVALLIQ NEWS, Wednesday, March 18, 2015 community ¦ r?9o3u iWK5, WzJx8i, · 18, 2015 Enhancing the experience 5mv3 7* ā7mG%A3 ÿ@āNm .< %ùm 0.> Bù '%m <m3 ÿ'><&[Nu*ā ÿ@ākā@ā[. 3 ā7mGYA3 57`*āqB> ÿ@ā@ām .Lā[> ù`<mā3[* ÿ<GUmmù.B>! 0 eā9 5m5m ùbmù.^3 78ù ÿB* ..3 mā@ām* photo courtesy of Steve Watton Junior Canadian Rangers Maliki Kattegatsiak, 15, and Kelsey Aggark, 17, right, of Chesterfield Inlet were among the 51 Junior Rangers from Nunavut to participate in a class about responsible leadership at the Tim Hortons Children's Ranch in Kananaskis, Alta., this past month.

Art opportunity Kivalliq Kivalliq artists should be aware of an exciting opportunity launched by the community of Salt Spring Island, B.C., with the Salt Spring National Art Prize (SSNAP) launching its inaugural year in a unique fashion. This small island, known for its creative passion in arts and sustainability, is honouring Canadian artists with the first artist taking $10,000 and a one-month artist residency on Salt Spring Island. In all, $25,000 in prize money is being offered. Artist exposure is expected to be extensive, as Salt Spring Island is known as one of Canada's premier art communities.

Outstanding award Arviat Charlene Ukutak of Arviat has received the Nunavut Status of Womem Council's Outstanding Young Woman Award for her commitment to engaging youth in her community to prevent suicide. The announcement was made earlier this month. Ukutak's goal is to have people select and develop their skills and talents. She helps keep people active and happy so they can overcome obstacles and she enjoys working with all age groups. New fleet at First Air Kivalliq First Air has announced it's actively looking to add new aircraft to modernize its fleet, while decreasing the number of aircraft types in use to reduce maintenance costs and complexity in its operations. The airline is investigating both the ATR 42-500, as well as Bombardier's Q400 as possible replacements for its turboprop aircraft. First Air may order up to 10 of the new aircraft and expects to receive the first of the new planes by the end of the year. Meliadine update Darrell Greer/NNSL photo BANTAM BANNER Coach Harry Kuksuk displays the 2015 Nunavut territorial bantam hockey championship banner signed by every player on the Rankin Inlet team. Rankin captured the bantam territorial in Iqaluit earlier this month. Rankin Inlet Agnico Eagle has updated its status report of the Meliadine gold project on the land near Rankin Inlet. The updated technical study is based on mining only the 3.3 million ounces of gold contained in the known mineral reserves (13.9 million tonnes of ore at 7.44 grams per tonne). In the study, mining operations at Meliadine would be conducted using a phased approach over a nine-year period from only the Tiriganiaq and Wesmeg deposits. The current mine plan will focus on mining ore from underground operations in years one to nine with open pit operations in two pits occurring in years four to seven. The study outlines mill operations averaging 3,000 tonnes per day of ore in years one to three and 5,000 tonnes per day of ore in years four to nine. The Nunavut Impact Review Board issued Agnico Eagle a project certificate for the Meliadine gold project at the end of February, which sets out the terms and conditions under which the project can proceed. The expected capital budget for 2015 is about $64 million, of which about $21 million is allocated towards planned underground development. news KIVALLIQ NEWS, Wednesday, March 18, 2015 mƬ¦k°z r?9o3u iWK5, WzJx8i, · 18, 2015 7 3BG9 #[8m k.3*ām mEmāNm ..3 eÿeB>! 0.> āÿUù.N3 Gā.7mB># 7EWùs3 k.3* ..3 7EWù93 Nelson Tagoona of Baker Lake fields questions in one of his workshops during hip hop and addictions awareness week in Baker Lake this past week. photo courtesy of Kathleen Merritt iāi Kq9IqI .

A week-long workshop focused on the advancement and revitalization of Inuit sign language (ISL) was held in Rankin Inlet this bast week. The workshop was facilitated by the father-and-daughter tandem of Dr. James MacDougall and Dr. Paige MacDougall in association with the Canadian Deafness Research and Training Institute. Among the objectives tackled during the week were the release of a new booklet demonstrating ISL signs, the release of a second booklet detailing the history of the ISL project in Nunavut and the development of a new booklet describing the life of the late Yvo Samugshak, a well-known resident of Rankin Inlet who used Inuit sign language exclusively to communicate. The recent international recognition of Inuit sign language by Ethnologue (a catalogue of more than 6,700 languages spoken in 228 coun- tries and information on 7,102 known living languages) was also announced during the week. Dr. James MacDougall said the workshop was a continuation of the process of the documentation and revitalization of ISL, which began in 2006. He said quite a bit of progress was made during the week. "We produced some new materials including a booklet telling the whole story of the project which has been translated into Inuktitut and English," said James. "We have a lot of interest from schools now, so we've been doing a lot of phrases that we use in elementary and high school. "We've had those interpreted into both American and Inuit sign language in our efforts to develop new materials." James said there was a special focus on Yvo Samugshak during the workshop. He said the booklet being produced is a tribute to Samugshak and his life. "The booklet contains highlights of his life, with graphics, and we're also making a video. "We showed the preliminary material to his wife, Susan, and other people such as Philip Ugjuk, who knew him very well, and got feedback on what we've produced so far. "We expect to have the booklet produced within the next few months and we expect there will be a lot of interest from across Nunavut on it." James has been involved with the project since its beginnings 19 years ago. He said the main focus has always been to document the language and promote it around Nunavut, but the project has progressed to the point where the group also wants to see training for interpreters and more accessibility and employment opportunities made available for deaf people in Nunavut.

"You have deaf people like Louisa (Nanooklook) and Philip (Ugjuk) who went south and returned, while others such as Johnny (Ugjuk) went to school here and never travelled south. "Clayton Ungungai is the first deaf Inuit graduate in Nunavut, and he's just completed his two-year certificate at Algonquin College in Ottawa on aboriginal studies. "The unique thing we find here is the interest in the families, which has resulted in the integration of deaf people here being a lot more complete, in a way, than it is in the southern part of Canada." James said the acceptance of deaf people in Nunavut, and especially Rankin Inlet, is really quite remarkable. He said ISL is quite different from American sign language, although they do share some aspects. "There has been some borrowing, back and forth, but the signs for most common objects are different because they appear different to people up here compared to people in the south. "ISL is a made-in-Nunavut language and we're seeing an increased interest in the language here from hearing people, not just deaf people. "A lot of indigenous peoples around the world had sign languages and, although it needs more study, we think there was sign language here all the way along, probably for thousands of years." James said the group will try to take its developed materials and give them to schools for curriculum use. He said even if there's just one deaf kid in a class, they seem very keen to learn the language. "My daughter (Dr. Paige MacDougall) has done similar work in Mexican communities where there's a high percentage of deafness. "She's looking at differences and similarities in different cultures with aboriginal people. "That aspect is interesting, as well, from a scientific point of view. "From here it's imperative we get the language established, and then get training programs started so we can have homegrown interpreters for deaf people." 12 KIVALLIQ NEWS, Wednesday, March 18, 2015 news mƬ¦k°z r?9o3u iWK5, WzJx8i, · 18, 2015 ÿ@ākāN ÿ<G0/[* .āN5 ÿ50.U<mN3 ÿ5ÿ '%*3 mE ākB@āùs3 '%*5 .NāB># ā ÿ@ā@ām 53 Gā*3 ![># Q3 ā'N /< ā'N =9 āqsÿ . 75[> 0.> < ā'N 0.> ù`33 Gā*3 ![># M* .#B >ÿG 75[> FG9 HqGm 0.> ÿR .#B omv3[*ā ..3 7EWùāYm* Darrell Greer/NNSL photo The participants of a workshop on the revitalization of Inuit sign language are, back row from left, Johnny Ugjuk, Molly Ugjuk, Clayton Ungungai, Kima Nanooklook and Philip Ugjuk, and, front row from left, Jamie MacDougall, Louisa Nanooklook, Susan Samgushak and Paige MacDougall in Rankin Inlet this past week. 5os,D@579_R, <Uk" ā3<āo97m ÿ50.U<m7Em ÿ5ÿ '%, ākB@āùs3 7EWù</* .0/[* ÿ<GWā@ā[*Nm 97 [email protected] ā0.U<mN.NB> ÿ5ÿ '%, ākāùo93 ®¸± .Nā@ā[. 7EWùā@ām* omv3[* .@ā[. ÿ<GÿB>> !5 3s5B> ?

Blizzard unleashes force onto Rankin, halts play after second semi-final by Darrell Greer Northern News Services Rankin Inlet Mother Nature unleashed her biggest temper tantrum of the winter before a champion could be crowned at the First Air Avataq Cup senior men's hockey championship in Rankin Inlet this past Sunday. Tournament commissioner Justin Merritt suspended the tournament following the second semifinal game between the Huka Inuks and Repulse Bay (Naujaat) at about 8 p.m. on March 15. Winds reached 120 km/h overnight in Rankin and were still blowing between 70 to 90 km/h throughout the day on March 16 with zero visibility. Repulse Bay defeated Huka 4-3 in its semifinal to set up a championship date with the Rankin Inlet Miners. The Miners defeated Coral Harbour 5-2 to advance to the title game. Coral and Huka will meet for the bronze medal. Also competing in this year's Avataq were Chesterfield Inlet and the Rankin Sea Dogs, who were both eliminated in the quarter finals, along with Whale Cove, Baker Lake and Rankin Inlet's Team Todd and the Rubber Puckies. Rankin's Wendel Kaludjak led the scoring race when play was suspended with 12 points on six goals and six assists, followed closely by Naujaat's Rodney Taparti (6-5-11), Coral's Kevin Angootealuk (5-5-10) and Naujaat's Aaron Kopak (0-10-10). The arena crew battled snow falling onto the ice and into the stands throughout the day March 15, as the result of unusually warm temperatures that preceded the storm. Merritt had little choice in making his decision, with a sold-out arena full of people needing to get home safely before the blizzard hit at its hardest. He said it's always tough to make the call to shut it down with an event as wildly popular as the First Air Avataq Cup hockey tournament. "I'm the commission of the event and I'm the one who made the call," said Merritt. "Of course people were disappointed, but you have to put safety first. "We hope to play the final two games as soon as the weather clears enough for people to be able to make it to the arena and home again safely. "All the teams are still in town due to the weather and it's not like they're going anywhere, so we should be able to get the games in." As of 2 p.m. on March 16, the weather had still not cleared enough for a decision on the games to be made in Rankin. eMā fqwqRqI> <E Eùu. omv3[*ā3 qs3 5mmN 87` 57 EWmx3 5U<@ā[. g5GmE3 ..3 āā93 EN97mù@āo .kāN em ām<m #ùNk@āo0.
