Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited Inuvik, N.W.T., on Monday to sign a funding agreement with the N.W.T. government and the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation in support of Inuit-led child and family services. The agreement means the Canadian government will provide $533.5 million over the next decade for the implementation of Inuvialuit Qitunrariit Inuuniarnikkun Maligaksat — the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation's child and family services law. The N.W.T. government is also providing $209,391 annually for that. Trudeau said the goal is to strengthen the family unit and to avoid situations where the children are taken away from their parents.

It’s summer in the Territories and that means things just above the 60th parallel have thawed—including Benton Fraser.

Inuvialuit herders move Canada’s last free-range herd of reindeer, numbering around 4,000, to the animals’ calving grounds. The Inuvialuit Regional Corporation took full ownership of the herd in 2021 with a goal of growing a sustainable food source.

MSN 12327 was a Douglas C-47A-5-DK but was quickly redesignated a "Dakota III" upon receipt by the Royal Air Force in 1944. Just two years later, the RAF transferred over to the Royal Canadian Air Force, where she continued to be identified as KG330. She flew on and on, until 1970, when the RCAF renumbered her as 12913. At some time in the mid 1970's, she was released from military service and registered as C-GWZS by her new owner, Can-Air Services. They employed her for three years, when Contact Airways acquired her but quickly resold the sturdy bird to Buffalo Airways. Like some others, Buffalo probably leased GWZS to Northwest Territorial for a few years before she became part of the active fleet and one of the stars of the cable television series "Ice Pilots". She flew one of the last commercial airline routes into the late 2010's and continues to fly ad hoc flights.

The Northwest Territories government is promising residents, including youth and children, that they will continue to have access to gender-affirming care even if some services are no longer available in Alberta.

In a Monday press release, the territory’s Department of Health and Social Services said in cases where those services are not available in the NWT, health care providers can refer residents outside the territory. If a required service is not available in Alberta, the department said “alternative pathways for care” are in place elsewhere in Canada.

“All NWT residents have the right to respectful, dignified and culturally safe health care,” the release stated.
