Youth are often asked “where do you see yourself in five years?” Well, when I left my little hometown in Nunavut to attend university I did not

expect to find myself here, editing Nipiit magazine. As an editor, I have learnt about, met and worked with many amazing young people. I

can say with confidence that all of the young Inuit who contributed to this magazine demonstrate passion, courage and determination.

I met even more amazing youth at the National Inuit Youth Summit (NIYS) that took place this past August in Kuujjuaq, Nunavik, Quebec,

and it is with great pleasure that I share their experiences with you in this issue of Nipiit.

I hope that you enjoy the articles provided by your fellow Inuit youth and I encourage you to submit your own in the future!

Matna,

Karen Aglukark

A dream that seemed impossible two years agohas now become a reality. I never thought I'd bein a position so rare and so rewarding for a youngInuk: studying law in the nation's capital at theUniversity of Ottawa.

Getting here was difficult but once I foundout I was accepted, I realized that all my hardwork truly had paid off. My journey took me fromwriting the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) in Nunavut to attending the Program of LegalStudies for Native People (PLSNP) in Saskatoon, SK.I also had to find funding for school, and, finally,move from Iqaluit to Ottawa.

The biggest hurdle was completing the thePLSNP, an intensive eight-week preparatorycourse, that I had to pass to be accepted by theUniversity of Ottawa. The Program taught meabout determination, hard work, persistence,and, most of all, desire. I have never worked sohard for something.

I recommend this program to all Aboriginalstudents and I hope that more Inuit apply and at-tend law school. I can't wait to continue my legalprofession with Inuit and Aboriginal peopleacross Canada! Alyssa Flaherty-Spence

The Kativik Regional Police Force

Cadet Program provides wilder -

ness first aid and “use of force”

training, as well as many other

opportunities to Inuit youth. The

Cadet Program is also designed

to expose youth to a healthy life -

style with on-the-land trips that

build self-esteem, a sense of pride

in Inuit culture, and encourage

the growth of young leaders in

Nunavik’s 14 communities. Out -

door training and trips represent

almost half of the training camps

delivered within the Cadet

Program through Ungaluk-

Safer Communities program

funding that we receive.

The 44 cadets currently

enrolled play an active role in

their respective communities.

The program is a great way

to teach youth to build better

and safer communities for the

children of Nunavik.

Throughout my life I have participated in manyleadership programs and forums. Recently, I attended the National Inuit Youth Summit.While I was at the Summit I had a chance toparticipate in a youth council workshop. Itshowed me that youth do have a lot of power,we just aren’t using it. Encouraging youth to get involved in committees is important because, as they say, our youth are the leadersof tomorrow. I totally agree, but instead of tomorrow, why don’t we make it today? Weneed to get youth that want to make a change,be successful, or be different, involved.

This is what inspired me to get involvedwith the Siqniq Youth Council in my homecommunity of Rankin Inlet. Although we’re asmall group, we’re slowly making an impact!

In 2010, I canoed down the Coppermine River, which is located near Kugluktuk, with 4Inuit youth and students from Upper Canada College (UCC) in Toronto. We all met up inYellowknife and travelled by floatplane to the River. We were taught the rules of being onthe river, and went over canoe basics before travelling to Rocky Defile, the biggest rapidon the Coppermine River.

Every day we followed the same routine, we woke up, packed, ate breakfast andstarted paddling. At lunch time we’d head to shore, make some sandwiches and relax before getting back on the water. In the evening, when we got hungry, we stop and setup camp for the night. After supper we would play games or go for a walk. Then we gotto bed and start the routine again the next morning.

We travelled for eleven days, I saw moose and wolves and eagles. It was one of thebest times of my life, and I would canoe down the Coppermine River again if I had thechance. — Katrina Hatogina

Qujannamiik.Aviaq Johnston

When I was growing up, Inuktitut was my first language.Over the years, my ability to speak it began to lessen,until I couldn’t understand what was being said to me.When elders would come in to speak to our class I woulddrown out their stories with my own thoughts, and inInuktitut classes I would simply do my work (which wasoften a word search puzzle) and wait for class to end.

At age 15, I moved from Igloolik to Iqaluit. This iswhen I realized that I wasn’t the only one who was losingtheir language. I began to write in syllabics on my note-books and talk to myself in Inuktitut, no matter how littleI remembered. If I was at a bilingual event in town, I wouldlisten really closely to the Inuktitut speakers. When I was

16, I was given the opportunity to attend a private school in Melbourne,Australia for a semester. I spent fourmonths surrounded by people whodid not know about Inuit. This iswhen I realized I didn’t know muchabout Inuit culture either. I knew thebasics of my language and culture, but I felt awful whenpeople would ask me a question about Inuit, where Iwas from, or how to say a certain word in Inuktitut, andI didn’t know the answer.

After these events in my life, I became extremelypassionate about the revitalization of Inuktitut. For me,one of the best methods of relearning the language wasby answering the question, “What did you do yesterday?”in Inuktitut. It’s really simple, but I began to rememberwords that I had forgotten, and how to construct sen-tences that were grammatically correct.

More Inuit youth are saying that Inuktitut is impor-tant to them, but there are not enough resources. Inuk-titut needs passionate teachers, particularly in middleand high school, and methods and resources that are in-teresting and relatable to students.

As we work to establish these resources, I encour-age teachers to ask their students what they did the daybefore, to have your student answer in Inuktitut to helpthem when they stumble upon their words. I also rec-ommend the usage of the Tusaalanga application inclassrooms, as modern technology is becoming moreand more popular among youth. Together we can reviveour language!

Haven, and participated in my first event, thebench reach. It didn’t go as well as I had hopedand I was too shy to compete in other events. I spent the rest of the games making new friendsand building my confidence.

For about two years I just continued withmy regular life. Then I heard that there would besummer games be held in Kugluktuk. Again, I didnot practice but attended. When I was register-ing, I met up with a friend that I had met manyyears before; we caught up and signed up for our events. During the Kugluktuk games I wasdetermined to try my hardest. Falling down atthe Gjoa Haven games motivated me to do better in Kugluktuk.

After the summer games in Kugluktuk Ibegan training and working out. When the gameswere held in Kugaaruk, I was able to compete inthe bench reach, swing kick, Alaskan high kickand the marathon. The highlight of this trip wasthe marathon, which I did not prepare for, butchallenged myself to complete. I finished themarathon and ended up winning my first goldmedal.

The next Kitikmeot Summer Games will be held here in Cambridge Bay, in August 2014. I recently joined the Hamlet Recreation Commit-tee to help plan for the event. After participatingin three summer games it is important to me tomake sure the experience in my home commu-nity is positive for the athletes.

My message to other young Inuit who maybe interested in arctic sports is to train. Practice,and talk to people who have experience. For example, for the high kicks, you need to be flexible, strong enough to lift your own weight,and have the endurance to push your body to itslimits. With dedication and training it is possibleto be good, to get better, and to kick higher andhigher.

For me, arctic sports are linked to a healthylifestyle. My training encourages me to eat theright foods, exercise, and get enough sleep. Eating healthy works with my training to preparemy body and ensures that I can do my best. Living a healthy life and playing in the events is a lot of fun. Having fun is important because it makes me happy to practice and play the traditional sports that our ancestors have beendoing for decades.

After a long summer of planning, this August I had the privilege of helpingthe National Inuit Youth Council host their 9th Summit.

The first day, short but sweet opening ceremonies were held, followed by speeches from two of NIYC’s former presidents from Kuujjuaq,Mayor Tunu Napartuk and Jennifer Watkins. For the rest of the day youthattended workshops on Inuit history, health research and mental wellness.We topped the day off with Inuit Got Talent, which showcased artists of allages from across Inuit Nunangat.

On Sunday, the Northern Village of Kuujjuaq drove the delegation upArpiq road where we made fires and had a picnic. We ate like kings! Ourcatering included frozen caribou, dried fish, tea, hotdogs and marshmal-lows. Once the wind and the snow drove us back into town, the youthdelegates spent their evening watching the Nunavut Sivuniksavut production, Staking the Claim.

Workshops took up most of Monday but everyone had the chanceto take a break and explore the career showcase held in the foyer. TheSummit delegation also attended the grand re-opening of Kuujjuaq’syouth centre.

The final day consisted of a panel presentation from Inuit leaders,a presentation on Inuit education, and roundtable discussions withInuit politicians and elders. During the closing ceremonies the NIYC revealed the Summit Qamutik, which was built by youth delegatesand a local carpenter.

Wednesday was a blur. Youth, guests and council memberswere shuttled to and from the airport, and staff scrambled to wrapup loose ends. It wasn’t until I was finally on the plane that I realizedwhat an effect the week had on me. I had grown attached to the delegates, local staff and the community itself. Although it wasn’talways smooth, the journey was unforgettable. I made great friends anddeveloped a new vision for my future and the future of Inuit.

Attending this summer’s National Inuit YouthSummit was a rejuvenating experience. Work-ing alongside delegates from every corner ofInuit Nunangat I saw the remarkable passionand dedication in tomorrow’s leaders. A quickscan of the room proved the extent of thepower and influence Inuit youth have, especiallywhen united.

This year’s summit was special becauseit marked 20 years since the vision for the National Inuit Youth Council was realized. Past presidents were invited to join the delegationto recognize this important moment in Canadian Inuit history and hopefully inspire

some of our young people to pursue similar paths as leaders. Thesummit was hosted by Kuujjuaq, a beautiful community served byMayor Tunu Napartuk who is a very close and personal friend. It was the perfect choice considering that Mayor Napartuk’s politicalcareer began as a President of the National Inuit Youth Council. Heparticipated in an inspiring Inuit leader’s panel alongside currentNIYC President Anguti Johnston, Nunatsiavut President Sarah Leo,and Makivik President Jobie Tukkiapik. The discussion highlightedthe doors that open to somebody who pursues a career in Inuit politics, a path that begins by volunteering with organizations suchas the National Inuit Youth Council.

I had the pleasure of networking with the youth personally during the summit’s World Café. As I listened to the discussions, I couldn’t help but wonder if I was speaking to future mayors, presidents, premiers or even the next Prime Minister. I left Kuujjuaqwith a reinforced sense of confidence in our people. If the 2013 National Inuit Youth Summit is any indication, the future is brighterthan ever for the Inuit of Canada.

During the past National Inuit Youth Summit I could not help butnotice how many of our youth delegates have children. In fact, I havebeen hearing a lot of talk about young people having kids. Quite literally, kids are having kids. I’m not saying this is wrong, but I knowit is putting a lot of strain on homes because kids are learning veryquickly to become parents, which is a huge adjustment for anyone.

My eldest daughter was born on the day I graduated highschool. It was a wonderful moment in my life but I admit I was tooyoung for parenthood. I had been accepted to Nunavut Sivuniksavut,where I decided to continue my education. At 17 years old, I believedI could do it all: go to school in the south, provide for my little familyand do all the fun things that youthful 17 year old people do. For awhile I could do it, for a while I somehow managed. It was difficult,but my little family and I pulled through.

If you are young and you have children it does not mean that youcannot pursue your education. There are many Inuit out there comple t -ing high school and university while raising their children, I did it myself.I encourage you to demonstrate to your children that education isimportant. Ask friends, family and childcare providers for assistanceif you need to, because what is best for you is best for your kids.

For those of you who have yet to become parents, I say to you— be careful, respect yourself and respect your body. Rememberthat family planning and preparation is important when starting afamily. If you are not ready to have a family then wait until you are.

We all have choices to make, I say make them at your own pace.There is a full and wonderful world out there and the possibilities areendless. Don’t be afraid to get out there and to experience newthings! It is a great way to learn about yourself, your culture, yourstrengths and weaknesses.

With all that said, I love my daughters, who are now both inschool. They drive me to work harder, to be better and what I want

more than anything is to raise them to the best of my ability, to helpthem grow and be good people. Children are a big responsibility andeducation is challenging, but if you fight for them and find a way forthem to work together, they are worth it.

The Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR) is gearing up for the youth coordi-nator community tours. I will be travelling to each community to helpyouth identify programs and activities we can implement this winter. Thesetours help motivate and encourage me and the youth involved, and helpto ensure our regional youth committees are active and receiving the support they need.

As part of the community tour, I will also be providing Applied SuicideIntervention Skills Training and coordinating and an injury preventionworkshops on safe hunting, fishing and house cleaning. It is importantthat we know the safe way to handle the tools involved.

The Inuvialuit Regional Corporation (IRC), the land claim organizationfor the ISR, will also deliver several economic development programs foryouth in each of the communities. These programs are designed to provideyouth with the information and skills to start and operate your own business. Cultural identity is incorporated into this business model and ineach step of the program.

We are very busy here and wish you all a happy goose filled spring!Respectfully,John Stuart Jr.

Working in for the Kitikmeot Inuit Association (KIA) is extremelyempower ing but also very busy! This summer we continued our studentprogram, focusing our time and energy on coordinating and attendingthe amazing National Inuit Youth Summit (NIYS) in Kuujjuaq. Activitiesthis fall and winter will include Cambridge Bay’s “Arnani QitingmiunmiHivuliuqtikhaliriniq,” our second regional women’s gathering, and our firstregional Men’s Gathering in Kugaaruk. There will also be many eventsthroughout the region involving language revitalization. These activitiesare on top of the many exciting programs and projects your communitiesmay offer.

Coming to work brings me happiness, knowing that the energy Iput in results in these positive activities and outcomes, for our peopletoday, as well as Inuit of the future. I love the task of linking strengths,challenges and issues of the past, to the present. This allows organizationslike KIA, and groups such as the National Inuit Youth Council (NIYC) tocontribute to building the future that Inuit envision.

I encourage you to seek out what is right for you, test the waters,find your passion and be the person you dream that our communitieswill be made up of in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to read, Sarah Jancke

This year the Kivalliq region celebrated the 10th Anniversary of theSomebody’s Daughter sewing program. It was an amazing learningexperience for the 13 women that participated in this 10 day program.We learnt how to make kamiks, seal skin pants and mitts. We also discussed the problems we face in our communities and what we cando to prevent suicide. Elders took part in these discussions and gavelessons on the principals of Inuit Qaujimatuqangit.

The program was held at Wilson River (Akuq), outside of WhaleCove, Nunavut. We spent our days learning how to gut fish, make pipsi(dried fish) and mikku (dried caribou), and prepare seal and caribouskins for patterns. We were all anxious to learn these traditional skillsand I am proud to say that we did.

I would like to thank our instructors, who were very patient withus, and the elders, who talked about the traditional way of life. Theirstories were a learning experience; and I am very fortunate for whatwe have today.

This was one of my responsibilities as a Program and Youth Coordinator for the Kivalliq Inuit Association (KIA). I learnt a lot, mademany new friends, and I’m already looking forward to next year.

Wow! What an amazing summer we had here in the Qikiqtani region. We

ran our 15th annual Sprouts Summer Day Camp Program in Iqaluit, hiring

a team of 9 Inuit youth to lead and coordinate fun and educational

activities for 50 children.

Another major highlight this summer, as you will have read in this

issue, is that we participated in the special 20th year anniversary celebration

of the formation of the National Inuit Youth Council at the National Inuit

Youth Summit in Kuujjuaq, QC. Our troupe consisted of 11 youth who all

had an amazing time.

Becky and Anguti also worked as Culturists on board Adventure

Canada’s cruise ship, teaching Inuit history, culture and language, and

traveling through the Northwest Passage, Ellesmere Island and all over

Greenland. We urge youth to seek out these opportunities! It was a trip

of a lifetime!

In sadder news, our beloved Thomas Anguti Johnston has now

moved on from QIA to focus on his awesome TV show, Qanurli. We will

miss him greatly! Though, we will continue working with him in his role

as President of the National Inuit Youth Council. Peace, all!

Clara Hughes recently visited Nain and the Torngat

Mountains National Park. She met with youth and

community leaders to talk about her life as a professional

athlete and, more importantly, to discuss her struggle

with depression. By sharing her story, Clara is helping to

break down the stigma associated with mental illness.

While in Nain, Clara and 55 community members

took part in a 5km fun run. After the event, Clara mingled

with the crowd and autographed the running bibs that

were specially made for the event. She also announced

that she will be donating a portion of the funds from her

12,000km bike tour across Canada to the kANGIDLUASUK

Student Program. The tour, which starts in March 2014,

includes over 200 stops, and is part of Clara’s work as a

national spokesperson for the Bell “Let’s Talk” mental

health initiative.

I am very glad to see youth initiatives developing in our

region, which is important today and for the future of

Nunavik.

This summer 26 Nunavik youth partook in the 2013

National Inuit Youth Summit. It was very exciting to see how

it gave youth a vision of the role they can play. These types

of gatherings encourage youth to become active in their

communities and to reach higher. The interactions and

presentations inspired many of our youth to take on roles as

youth leaders.

A youth conference also took place in this fall in

Kangirsualujjuaq. Two youth delegates, who attended the

National Inuit Youth Summit, presented. It is all like a domino’s

effect. Involvement in one conference, builds confidence,

and inspires youth to look for other opportunities.

The youth conference in this village is a model of what

we can all do within our communities to support. With our

high population it is important to invest in our youth. We

must never underestimate our ability to influence others

positively.

Inspired by his mother and sister, Keenan Carpenter hasbeen drum dancing for 8 years. Travelling across InuitNunangat for workshops, and to Alaska and Greenland,he has been to places he only dreamed of. A favorite moment, when he performed at the 2010 WinterOlympic Games in Vancouver.

At a young age Keenan realized that drum dancingwas dying off. He felt he had a responsibility as a youngInuvialuit to keep the tradition alive. His father presentedhim with a loon headdress when he was 18, an honorwhich inspires him to further his dancing and strengthenInuvialuit cultural traditions. Keenan Carpenter
