    http://www.cyber-north.com/canada/history.html
    
    Extractions: HISTORY Canada and the United States have many major geographic features in common. They share the Rocky Mountains, the Interior Plains, four of the Great Lakes, the Appalachian Highlands, and many rivers. It is hardly surprising, therefore, that the stories of the exploration and settlement of both of these nations are closely interwoven. The complete history of neither Canada nor the United States can be studied without reference to the history of the other. Each is today an independent nation. Each, however, achieved its independence by a completely different pathCanada by gradual constitutional change spread over many years, the United States by a single great War of Independence. Discovery of Canada The earliest discovery of the New World was made by Norse seafarers known as Vikings. The vague accounts of their exploits are drawn from their sagas, epic stories in prose or verse handed down by word of mouth through many generations. In AD 985 Norse seamen sailing from Iceland to Greenland were blown far westward off their course and sighted the coast of what must have been Labrador. The report of forested areas on the strange new coast encouraged further explorations by Norse colonists from Greenland, whose settlements lacked lumber.

90. The Inuktitut Language Of Tununiq, Pond Inlet, Baffin Island, Nunavut, Arctic Ca
    Introduction to the language of the Inuit pronunciation guide and a few common words and phrases.  
    http://www.tununiq.com/masters/iinuk.htm
    
    Extractions: History Inuktitut 101 To understand the nature of "Inuktitut", the word needs to be built from its roots. "Inuit" refers to three or more Arctic aboriginal persons, and an "Inuk" is one Inuit person. Consequently, "Inuk-titut" roughly translates as "in the way of an Inuk". Inuktitut is not just a language; it is a way of life. An Inuk not only speaks in Inuktitut, but he or she also acts, thinks and lives "in the way of an Inuk". As you can image, truly understanding Inuktitut might take non-Inuit a lifetime or more. Nevertheless, learning a few phrases and words can establish goodwill between visitors and Inuit, especially when dealing with a guide or other Inuit for several days. The following are a few pronunciation guides, common words and phrases to get you started. Pronunciation guides: Inuktitut could be called a vowel-based language. That is, every syllable ends in a vowel sound, unless there are two consecutive consonants. In this case, the syllables are split between the two consonants. For example, Inuktitut is pronounced "I-nuk-ti-tut" or "Ee-nook-tee-toot", not "In-ook-tit-oot". An exception occurs in words like "Pangnirtuq" because in Inuktitut "ng" is a single consonant. The pronunciation is "Pang-ni(r)-too(k)" which translates to "place with mature male caribou".

91. Nunavut
    The separation of nunavut from the Northwest Territories began with a 1992 the moveas part of the largest native landclaim settlement in Canadian history.

    Extractions: Nunavut [n OO u v OO Pronunciation Key Nunavut [Inuktituk,=our land], territory (1996 pop. 24,730), 772,260 sq mi (2,000,671 sq km), NE Canada. Formed from eastern portions (the former Baffin, Keewatin, and Kitikmeot regions) of the Northwest Territories Geographically, the territory is largely on the Canadian Shield and almost entirely north of the tree line (except near the Manitoba border); the landscape is dominated by tundra , rock, and snow and ice. The capital and largest town is Iqaluit on Baffin Island at Frobisher Bay. The territory is effectively controlled by the Inuit, who make up 85% of the population, although control could change with population growth. Most of the richest and most well-developed parts of the Northwest Territories, which lie along the Mackenzie River, were not included in Nunavut, which must rely on the development of its mineral resources, in addition to hunting, fishing, fur trapping, sealing, and the production of arts and crafts. The Inuit hold outright title to about 20% of Nunavut, including 13,896 sq mi (36,000 sq km) of subsurface mineral rights. The territory faces problems including high unemployment, substance abuse, and suicide rates, and some 90% of its budget currently comes from the Canadian government. There are no paved roads, and long-distance travel is largely by air. There is a small tourist trade, lured by the wildlife and vast, spare wilderness, as well as Inuit cultural attractions.

    Extractions: Site Map ... Nunavut On April 1, 1999, the map of Canada changed with the birth of the new territory of Nunavut. Nunavut means our land in Inuktitut, the Inuit language. It is a vast territory-larger than Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Quebec combined- that contains one fifth of Canada's land. This was the first major change to the map of Canada since Newfoundland joined Canada in 1949. Nunavut's lands are made up of the central and eastern portions of the former Northwest Territories. As the newest partner in the federation, Nunavut is the latest development in Canada's nation building. All Canadians can take pride in the outstanding achievement the birth of the new territory represents. Canada has redrawn its map peacefully, democratically and in partnership. Over the millennia, Inuit have adapted successfully to one of the harshest climates on earth. Blending this tradition with modern technology and administrative organization will be the hallmark of the new government. Nunavut brings a distinctive voice to national policy and direction. It is helping to make Canadians more aware of the challenges of day-to-day life in this vast territory.
