Arviat in Nunavut located along the western shore of Hudson Bay, will be the home of the first Inuit-led university in Canada's Arctic.
This according to CBC News.
The location of the main campus was formally announced in Ottawa on Wednesday afternoon during an event hosted by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK), the national organization representing Inuit.
ITK President Natan Obed said the creation of the first university in Inuit Nunangat — the homeland of Inuit in Canada — is an important step in asserting jurisdiction in the Canadian Arctic.
