Nanilavut Initiative Launched
2019AD
Between the 1940s and 1960s, many Inuvialuit were taken from their communities in the North for tuberculosis treatment at hospitals in southern Canada. Some never came home. In 2019, the Inuvialuit Regional Coproration partners with other Inuit organizations and the Government of Canada to help Inuit families find records and burial sites for loved ones who were taken during this time.
