the operation and maintenance of marine infrastructures, the great need<br />
for proper auto mechanic services, access trails, as well as the idea of<br />
communities pooling together to lessen the cost of sealift cargo. The<br />
performance of some Nunavik police officers and their language barriers<br />
with unilingual Inuit was in question several times during the AGM.<br />
Being a police officer in one’s home community is a very demanding<br />
job and there are few Inuit interested in such a career. It was decided<br />
that the <strong>Makivik</strong> executive would request a meeting with KRG leaders<br />
specifically on the topic of policing.<br />
A topic discussed in previous board meetings, some members<br />
mentioned again that they would like to see sewing centres built in every<br />
community, funded in a similar arrangement that <strong>Makivik</strong> followed when<br />
the corporation built recreational facilities and FM radio stations. During<br />
an overtime board meeting, it was voted that Akulivik and Kangiqsujuaq<br />
would be the first two communities to get new sewing centres, which<br />
are to be built in summer 2010. This new <strong>Makivik</strong> initiative will ensure<br />
that all communities will eventually have a sewing centre, with two<br />
sewing centres per year being constructed in Nunavik. Another vote<br />
taken during this overtime meeting was to name two new members<br />
of the Ungaluk Advisory Committee: Maggie Akpahatak and Jonathan<br />
Epoo. Both of these decisions were formalized in the passing of the<br />
resolutions at the end of the AGM.<br />
