WWF-Canada is proud to have helped support the community in developing this prize-winning proposal as well as other ongoing environmental initiatives.
Niqihaqut
, which means our food in Inuktitut, was the winning submission from Taloyoak s Spence Bay Hunter & Trapper Association (the community was formerly called Spence Bay) and seeks to create a country-food economy in the most northern community on Canada s mainland.
Country food is the term for what s caught locally as opposed to expensive store food flown up from the south, but it is becoming increasingly inaccessible due to poverty, climate change and cultural loss.
