Butting Out to Win<br />
Nunavik has received the Québec public health’s “Stay Quit<br />
to Win” award for having the highest percentage of former<br />
smokers out of any region in the province who committed<br />
themselves to refrain from smoking for six weeks, between<br />
March 1st and April 11th.<br />
On behalf of the region, public health agent, Kathy<br />
Snowball, received the award from the chairman of the<br />
Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Ser vices<br />
(NRBHSS), Johnny Naktialuk. NRBHSS director, Serge Dery,<br />
who was also on hand for the presentation, was jubilant about<br />
the achievement, stating, “Four percent of Nunavimmiut took<br />
part in the contest this year, but next year we want to get<br />
this up to six percent. We want to keep this trophy for another<br />
year!”<br />
Also for having the highest percentage of winning quitters,<br />
Aupaluk received the school challenge award, while<br />
Tasiujaq won the community challenge award. Inuit and<br />
Cree populations have the highest percentage of smokers in<br />
Québec, with 70 percent of adults and 80 percent of youth<br />
hooked on tobacco. It is estimated that around $2-million per<br />
year is spent in Nunavik on this toxic product.<br />
Upon receiving the award, Kathy expressed special<br />
thanks to all Nunavimmiut for their participation in the contest,<br />
as well as First Air, Air Inuit, the Travelodge Hotel,<br />
Northern Stores, the FCNQ, and the various Nunavik municipal<br />
offices who provided donations.<br />
