Happy Nunavut Day!

32 years ago today the Canadian government honored a land claim to create the Territory of Nunavut. Congratulations to the Inuit of the North!

Has The View been on that long? I remember that enormous fat cunt Star Jones saying it sounded too much like "None of it"

A native or long-term resident of Nunavut is called a Nunavummiuq (plural: Nunavummiut).

Thank you for that most useful information, R4.

In Nunavut, they 27 different words for "underpopulated."

It sounds like what Murray makes Bess pronounce before he asks her if she wants to be the anchorkid.

I visited Kuglatuk, Cambridge Bay and Grise Fjord in Nunavut last fall when I did a cruise of the Northwest Passage and the west coast of Greenland and the Nunavutians were very nice and welcoming.

Nobody south of Gross Morne is interested in the Northwest Passage.

That gives me a chance to repeat one of my favorite jokes:

A baby seal walks into a bar. The bartender says "What'll you have?"

The seal says "Anything but a Canadian Club."

r18, what on earth are you on about?

I have respect for people who live in harsh climates - be it cold or hot.

However, it also feels really dumb and cult-like. "This is our way of life - we LOVE IT HERE! We need to preserve our traditions!"

Nah dude - you all need to move. It's 2025. You're lying to yourself and sacrificing your life because of your ancestors' mistake.

Sometimes you're just born in a shitty place - it sucks, but you need to GTF out. That goes for a lot of small town/rural red states in the US as well. No jobs, ain't shit to do, nothing exciting ever and everyone knows your business.

It just feels like a cult. Any place where people aren't moving TO and many people are moving away from - that's a sign.

r21, but 'crispers', what's that? Is that high-end english for 'chips', as in potato chips?
