About this listen

 In this episode of The Arctic Edge, we explore how mining isn’t just an industry in Nunavut. It’s an economic engine that powers opportunity, infrastructure development, and Inuit self-determination. Mining is the second largest employer in Nunavut, and the largest GDP contributor. We will hear how local corporations and Inuit leaders are actively shaping resource projects to reflect community priorities.

Guests like Nunavut Premier P.J. Akeeagok, Sean Boyd from Agnico Eagle, Peter Tapatai from Peter’s Expediting Ltd. in Baker Lake, and Nunavut Minister of Community Services David Akeeagok share how mining has created skilled jobs, new businesses, and vital services. They also highlight how responsible resource development can build long-term prosperity. It’s not just about extracting wealth. It’s about building futures.
