We are very happy to have former CBC Radio announcer Joanna Awa join us to host a series of Inuktitut language podcasts. We are starting with ICC Canada President Monica Ell-Kanayuk, also a former CBC Radio announcer in Iqaluit, Nunavut.
Joanna speaks with Monica about her path from CBC to becoming a Member of the Nunavut Legislative Assembly, and Minister of several portfolios in the Nunavut Government. She is also an award winning entrepreneur. Now, as President of ICC Canada, she is taking the Canadian Inuit voice to the international arena, for example at the Arctic Council, and the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.
Music on this podcast is by Nelson Tagoona, Inuit throat boxing artist from Baker Lake, Nunavut. Additional narration is by Hazel Ootoowak, Project and Office Coordinator at ICC Canada.
We are grateful to Heritage Canada for funding this series of Inuktitut language podcasts.
