10 POVUNGNITUK SCHOOL PROJECT 

A conference call was held between the Executive Committee and 

representatives from the Education Committee of Povungnituk, Allie Kanarjuq, 

the school principal, Aipilie Kunuajuak, the Centre Director, Alasuak Amittu. 

The representatives of Povungnituk explained that they consulted the 

population of Povungnituk on this issue. They asked for further support from 

the school board in trying to obtain increased funding for a bigger project. 

The school board representatives explained that it is doubtful at this point that 

any additional funding can be obtained from the government and that the board 

is worried about further delays on the Povungnituk project as well as its 

implications on other projects for other communities. 

Annie Popert stressed that the board has supported the wishes and the 

interests of the community of Povungnituk all along and that this project has 

come a long way from the initial proposal of the ministry to have only a 

renovation of existing buildings. If the board cannot pursue this project further 

with the Ministry of Education and Treasury Board in order to be able to deal 

with other communities' urgent needs, it must not be construed as non 

support for Povungnituk. 

The board shall wait for a final written response from Povungnituk before the 

commissioners make a decision on this issue at their June meeting.

Annie Popert tabled a letter from Michel Quinn, centre director of Adult 

Education in Inukjuak, regarding the Education Committee's recommendation 

not to include Qallunaat in the Inuit traditional skill courses. 

The Executive Committee felt that this type of courses must be taught in the

the Education Committee would be maintained.

The Executive Committee decided to refer this matter to the next Council of 

Commissioners meeting.

39 HEAVY EQUIPMENT OPERATORS COURSE 

Jim Delaurier attended the meeting to present an update report on a proposal 

to offer to Inuit students heavy equipment operators course in connection with 

the Great Whale River Project. 

A discussion ensued on this matter. The commissioners felt that the board did 

not want to be involved in the delivery of a course linked with the Great Whale 

Project at a time where a number of Inuit are opposed to the project and the 

Crees are fighting hard against it. The board prefers to wait and see if the 

project will go ahead before getting involved in providing this course. 

40 T V N C 

Jim Delaurier explained that Television Northern Canada won't grant new 

membership to their board until it has been in operation for a year. However, 

it can grant associate memberships but the school board would have to pay 

for it's travel to attend board meetings. A discussion ensued on this matter. 



RESOLVED: 

THAT Jim Delaurier be and is hereby appointed representative of 

the Kativik School Board to the board of T V N C and Bruna 

Mastroianni be and is hereby appointed to the scheduling committee.

The Co-ordinator of Student Services, Paul Khatchadourian, attended the 

meeting to make a report on a visit he just made to Cornwall Aviation for the 

Pilot Training program. 

There will be four pilot trainees during the school year 1991/92. Due to budget 

constraints two trainees will start their course in September and two others will 

start in January. This shall require about fifteen thousand dollars (15000$) 

extra funding from Ilivvik and would have to go through the Ilivvik Board for 

approval. 

The Executive Committee agree that Ilivvik should provide this extra funding of 

fifteen thousand dollars (15 000$). 

CLOSING OF THE MEETING 

The meeting closed at 17:10 hours all business being finished.
