Deeply moved attending the Indigenous Land Recognition Plaque Blessing Ceremony at Service Canada. Outstanding drumming and profound words by our elder, Barbara Nepinak and our DG Pat Chaba @yankeepatt. Another small but important step towards reconciliation. #WTRegion

Awesome visit to the Nunavut Fisheries and Marine Training Centre today — inspiring to see young Inuit women and men preparing for careers on the sea. A great example of ESDC/Service Canada and the Government of Nunavut working together to support strong projects like this!
