The past month has been
pressure packed for one of
the Kivalliq's more successful
training programs.
A two-year funding agreement with Employment and
Social Development Canada
was set to run out on the
Kivalliq Mine Training Society (KMTS) on March 31.
While it's still supported by
Nunavut's Economic Development and Transportation, that's
not enough for the society to
continue its operations.
An application has been
filed with the federal government for a funding extension
for the society.
Executive director Ken
Kerr said the society remains
very optimistic the extension
will be granted.
He said the organization
has a great plan for the next
year, which has also been submitted to the feds.
"At this point, we're just
waiting for the phone to ring,
but there's no way of knowing
when, or if, they're going to
approve it," said Kerr.
"We've spent $6.96 million of what I would call new
money for the region.
"It wasn't from a previous program that anyone had
entitlement to, but money the
KTMS went out and got.
"On top of that, we leveraged another $5 million in
cash and in-kind contributions
from Agnico Eagle, the hamlets and local employers."
The society had about 750

"Some models worked better than others, but the Coral
group is one example of a

The society put 24 people
through the college's pretrades program, with 18 passing their trade-entry exam.
Morrison said Chris
Meeko was supporting a
family of three on a convenience-store salary before taking the pre-trades program.
Meeko's now working in
Rankin as an electrician's
apprentice.
"Having him go from
working part time in a convenience store to being an
apprentice in the trade he
wanted is a great success for
us," said Morrison.
"The support we received
from the communities, and
the partnerships we created
with local employers, were a
huge accomplishment for us.
"Being a former economic development officer with
the Hamlet of Rankin Inlet
helped me to develop relationships around the region.
"I took advantage of
that, and we were able to
train more people and offer
more programming than we
expected because of the partnerships we developed."

Top science fair project compares sealskin rope to modern nylon
by Darrell Greer
Northern News Services
Chesterfield Inlet
Science lovers from the little
school that can got their test tubes
in under the wire before heading to
Baker Lake this past weekend.
Victor Sammurtok School (VSS)
in Chesterfield Inlet held its science
fair on March 23, just four days before
the regional event in Baker.
Louie Kukkiak and Qimmialuk
Ipkarnerk went to the regional fair
after having the top project in Chester, which compared sealskin rope to
modern nylon rope.
Delilah Issaluk took the second
regional qualifier for her efforts on
traditional sunglasses
versus their modern
counterparts.
This year's fair at
VSS saw 84 students
enter projects, with
kindergarten students
entering two submissions, grades one
to eight four each, grades nine and 10
entering eight and grades 11 and 12
doing six.
Teacher Glen Brocklebank said
the eight judges saw this year's entries
as being better overall quality than
in 2014.
He said student confidence in their projects
was high heading to the
Kivalliq Regional Science Fair in Baker Lake
from March 27 to 29
(final results were not
known as of press time).
"Our top two are traditional-based
projects," said Brocklebank.
"The winners interviewed nine
elders on the use of sealskin rope and

tested it against nylon rope.
"Our second-place finisher did
Inuit Shades, which showed traditional snow goggles to actually be more
effective than the majority of modern
sunglasses she tested.
"During her testing, Delilah (Issaluk) found four millimetres is the
optimum size of the slit to block
light."
Students at VSS have done incredibly well at the regional fair over the
years.
So much so that the students take
a great deal of pride in their school's
performance at the event.
Brocklebank said the competition
at the Chester fair can be fierce.
He said earning the right to represent VSS at the regional fair is still a
big deal among the students.
"Our students are proud we continually do so well at the regional fair.
"We had all new students from the
grade nine and 10 class qualify for
this year's regional.
"They set the bar fairly high for
themselves, and were eager to qualify
for a trip to the Canada-Wide Science
Fair later in the year."

Demystifying the camp
Coping program helps families deal with mining lifestyle
by Darrell Greer
Northern News Services
Baker Lake/Kivalliq
A group of mineworkers
and their significant others
are feeling better about their
lifestyle after taking part in
a program sponsored by the
Kivalliq Mine Training Society (KMTS).
The origin of the (Fly-in,
Fly-out) Making It Work program was inspired by, and
borrowed from, the Work
Ready program developed by
Baffinland Iron Mines Corp.
for its Mary River project.
Brubacher Development
Strategies Inc. was contacted
to help adapt the program to
the needs of Kivalliq families
after being involved with the
Baffin project.
Brubacher's Pamela Power
took the lead role in the adaptation and delivery of the program, and said rather than
AROUND
Kivalliq
with Darrell Greer
reinvent the wheel, the Kivalliq adapted a program shown
to be successful in the Baffin.
She said her role in the
Making It Work program was
to bring it to fruition.
"I worked on the course
design and concept, brought
all the pieces together, identified trained facilitators to
deliver the program, worked
with a facilitator on developing the content, and looked
at how it could be delivered
at-site at Agnico Eagle and
how recruitment would take
place," said Power.
"The KMTS set-up a needs
assessment, which came to a
conclusion in June of 2014.
"The needs assessment,
essentially, showed families
were struggling with the flyin, fly-out nature of mine
work.
"Having someone away
half the time, while you're left
Baker Lake
SOUTHAMPTON
ISLAND
raising children and dealing
with different issues, was a
strain and a stress for a number of families."
Power said the real gem
of the program is that it's a
chance for couples to take
time from their busy lives,
come together for three days
at the mine site and take stock
of their situation.
She said it's a challenging
lifestyle and couples need to
look at what they want to get
out of it.
"Being at Meadowbank is
a wonderful experience for
the spouse who's never been
there to see it and understand
what their partner does.
"The time helps them
understand why their partner is tired when they come
home, or why they, sometimes, can't call them after
a shift.
"The course content really
gives couples the chance to
talk together and sort things
out.
"Once they realize what
their goals are, then we talk
about how they get there by
getting into the skills around
communication, conflict
resolution and money management, which all play into
the experience they're having
at the mine and getting some
insight into what their partner
does."
The third program began
this past Friday, bringing the
total number of couples to
have participated in Making
It Work up to 17. All the
Meadowbank workers in the
program to date have been
male except for one.
Power said maintaining a
happy relationship in a fly-in,
fly-out lifestyle will always
require a couple to work at it.
She said when one partner

Power woes haunt comnunity
Rankin Inlet
A failed generator was the main culprit in a series of power
outages in Rankin Inlet this past week.
A number of Rankin businesses closed for the day on
March 23 due to the power outages, as did the hamlet office.
In addition to the failed generator, another was down for
regular maintenance and was awaiting the arrival of a new
Bowhead quota doubled
Kivalliq
The Kivalliq quota for bowhead whales was doubled to
two this past Friday, from the one whale allowed the previous year.
The quota increase was recommended by the Nunavut
Wildlife Board and accepted by federal Minister of Fisheries
and Oceans Gail Shea.
The additional bowhead will benefit the Kivalliq by supporting the traditional diet of beneficiaries, and allowing the
various hunters and trappers organizations to further develop
effective strategies for the utilization of the whale.
Arctic Atoms tourney news
Rankin Inlet/Whale Cove/Coral Harbour
Young players from across the Kivalliq descended upon
Rankin Inlet to take part in the annual Arctic Atoms hockey
tournament this past weekend.
The event featured two teams from the host community,
Arviat, Coral Harbour, Baker Lake and a Team Kivalliq
squad.
is gone half the time, it's difficult to keep the lines of communication open, keep your
goals set and keep on track in
working together.
"The program gives them
a plan and an opportunity to
talk about what work needs
to be done.
"We don't tell them what
they need to do, but, rather,
they discover it through the
program.
"Then they leave with an
idea of how to make things
work for their family.
"What surprised me, in
terms of results, was how
much of what they leaned in
the program spread through
the whole family."
Power said people have
reported that, since taking the
course, they're doing monthly
budgets, paying their bills on
time and putting more food
on the family table.
She said the mine workers also report being more
relaxed and comfortable since
their spouse was at-site and
now understands the work
they do at Meadowbank.
"The course is really welldesigned in that there are
definite learning goals and
skills being taught, but it's
also designed to respond to
what people want.
"We've had participants
come up to us and ask if they
could talk about X, and we
talked about X as well as Y
and Z because nothing is off
the table.
"Absolutely everything is
up for discussion, and if they
want to talk about 'I think
there's something going on
here that I don't like,' then we
talk about it.
"That's the way it has to
be for the program to be truly
effective."
Meanwhile, the community of Whale Cove hosted its
annual Johnny Kook Memorial hockey tournament this past
weekend, while Coral Harbour announced its annual Joseph
Natakok Memorial senior men's hockey tournament had been
rescheduled to April 16.
Coral organizers are asking any teams interested in playing in the tournament to register their squad by April 10.
Final results from both the Arctic Atoms in Rankin and
the Johnny Kook in Whale were not known as of press time.
Soccer tourney on the horizon
Rankin Inlet
The fourth annual Rankin Inlet adult soccer tournament
has been scheduled for April 30 to May 3.
Indoor soccer features five-on-five soccer with a goalie,
and each team is allowed nine players on its roster.
All players must be 19 years of age in order to participate.

Close call for community hall
Old Rankin building dodges bullet when pipe lets go
by Darrell Greer
Northern News Services
Rankin Inlet
Rankin Inlet recreation coordinator David Clark didn't
have much time to reflect on
his team's overtime loss while
leaving the ice after the First
Air Avataq Cup final in Rankin this past month.
Clark spotted water, and
lots of it, running across the
floor almost immediately
upon exiting the ice area.
He was quick to discover the water was originating
from the opposite side of the
building, and had already
flooded the community hall.
Clark said the problem
stemmed from a joint that
let go from the main pipes
leading to the hall's sprinkler
system.
He said water was pouring
out "pretty good" from underneath the stage in the hall,
and was also flowing into the
referee's room and a number
of dressing rooms.
"I don't know what the
exact water pressure is going
through those pipes, but it's
pretty strong," said Clark.
"I'd say it's not too far from,
say, the pressure of a fire hose.
"I noticed it right away
after leaving the game and
it was spreading out everywhere.
"It took quite a few of
us about 90 minutes to get
all the water out."
Clark said he was lucky a
number of people who were
there for the Avataq final
pitched in to help arena staff
clean the mess.
He said it was also lucky
the joint didn't manage to stay
together for another hour, or
so.
"If that had happened overnight, when there was nobody
here until the following morning, we would have been in a
world of hurt.
"We will have to remove
the tiles in the hall and replace
them this summer, as a result
of the damage.
"My mindset had to change
pretty quick from losing a big
hockey game to fixing the
problem.
"I went to bed that night
and thanked the good Lord for
having it happen when it did."
Clark said, to him, the near
miss once again draws atten-
tion to the fact the community
needs a new hall and arena.
He said the hamlet dodged
a bullet this time, but, the next
time, it may not be so lucky.
"It that had happened
after everyone left the arena,
I guarantee the community
hall wouldn't even be open
right now.
"We got lucky this time,
but I have to wonder when our
luck is going to run out with
such an old building."

another blustery day.
Well, I guess we shouldn't be surprised with
anything as far as the weather is concerned.
We do live in the Kivalliq and that's North
any way you look at it, so, get used to it.
Spring will be here when it comes, followed
by summer and fall and then winter.
That's just the way it goes, so enjoy and
dress properly.
Kids in the south will be enjoying their
spring break this week, and our students will
be working on the next phase before their summer break comes along in a few short months.
Enjoy your time with family and friends
wherever you are.
We do a few birthday wishes and greetings
to pass along this week, so here they are.
