However if the driver went into the water as well, we had to hurry to bring him back home as soon as possible. Sometimes runaway snowmobiles would even hit houses. When the snowmobile was working okay, they were very fun to use. Today we now have well made snowmobiles and I expect they'll make even better ones. The people, the hunters, are very skilled in using them. When they know where to go fishing or to go hunting animals they don't stay out long anymore and they catch more than we used to during our days. MM: When they started to pull sleds with their snowmobiles, did you use the same kind that you used for dog sledding? Maatiusi: We did. We kept improving the sleds whenever we discussed them amongst ourselves and then everyone would start having the same kind of sleds to pull by snowmobiles. Many things started to come about such as compasses and nowadays they use Global Positioning Systems. Even in bad weather people can know where they are with the GPS. If they feel they can make it home, they usually arrive even in bad weather. MM: When they started making hitches for the sleds, do you recall how they were being made? Maatiusi: Yes I do. They didn't even try to experiment with different types of hitches. They mostly started to copy the types of hitches that were being used by tractors. As the number of people who owned sleds increased, we started to use a more standardized version of sled hitch. Today's sled is still made much like before with cross bars on top of the two runners. Unlike before when they tied the crossbars to the runners, they now nail them on to the runners. I am certain that there are some who still prefer to use the traditional type of sleds. But many people here in Puvirnituq use sleds with their crossbars nailed onto its runners. MM: The speed of snowmobiles is increasing all the time. Do you recall when you felt you would start losing your things? Maatiusi: No not really, although people would lose some gas containers and sleeping bags. It doesn't happen as often as before now. MM: And because they use boxes nowadays? Maatiusi: That's right. A lot of them do and some of them can even sleep in them. They now customize their sleds to include a box in which you can just sleep whenever you need to after a long journey. MM: When you got your first snowmobile, did you travel to other communities? Maatiusi: Yes I did go to other communities. I used to travel to Inukjuak, even alone sometimes. Although it wasn't a safe place to travel alone, we used to send people to Inukjuak and Akulivik by themselves. Today people are asked not to travel alone anymore. Even snowmobiles that are made today will eventually breakdown. I do recall people travelling alone quite often with their snowmobiles.

The late David Novalinga of Puvirnituq with an evergreen tree on an early model Ski-doo. When more people started to get snowmobiles most of them depended on small 10-gallon tanks. Some even brought a 45-gallon barrel of gas. Today sometimes we don't even see the tanks anymore as they are tucked inside the sled boxes. We now just put our five-gallon tanks onto our sleds and tuck them away. Before that we used 10- and 45-gallon tanks. PAULUSIE NOVALINGA MM: When the snowmobiles started to break down, I would suppose that the parts were not readily available? Maatiusi: When a snowmobile broke down and needed parts, they were never available. So most of the machines were left aside and some people even went back to using dogteams. As they were learning about their snowmobiles, they would let them sit idle and wait for the parts and in the meantime would be using their dogteams. Some would wait for quite a long time. Some people were pretty good at it and would make or modify spare parts. Some were quite innovative using any material such as paper or fabric. They used to try anything. They would use a piece of steel for a spare part if it was malleable enough. And of course they would make the snowmobile useable again. I can still clearly remember some of them even trying to use different types of tracks. I can recall one of them making holes for the sprockets to fit in. They tried anything they could think of. mr[4: mfx €8iÖomA†5 won3bs?9oxiz w2WQIs?9oxiz WdI3ÌX9oxiq9l ck6 xg3bsizk5 yr©2 kw?9oxiz w2WNClx3ht4 wä V µtsy: €x, mE4 Öm €8iÖom5J†5 bm4fx vmQIso3g5 µ8N k3cIA8âlt4 ryxisoCu4 bm8N €8iÖomi3j5 won3is?5g6 xys5Öoi3j5 won3is?5g6 bm4fxoµ5yx5 vmQIs5nlt4 ryxiso- Cu4 xux4fc3iq8i bm4fiz cspmJ5 bm8N k3ctbs5nqMs3X5 xrgN3gxl4 bm4fx Öà5gi4 vmps?o3g5 whmN3gx¬7mb Wytx¬gw8NË3mb wMq5 wªtbs?7mb w˜8i xys9ME5ymo3g5 Ì8N xat4 bfIsZu ckgw8Noµ5yx6 bm4fx WNhx3tbs?o3gw5 bm8N k3cbs5nqMs3X5 xrgN3Xg6 k3cbsyC˜3gns7uJ6 k3ctbs§AZ5b WJm1qbClx5ti4 hZl5g6 Ö4fx e7uK5 ckwQMsJ5Iq5bK5 WbcD8âg5 wMq5 xJw8No3XoxJ5 e7uÌ3XoxJ9l WJx¬Zlx5 ryxi W1axDt5ngw8NsJEIso3g5 WN§ts9lx/A8âg5 wMqtA5 s9lu. mr[4: hvostAt5ã5 V µtsy: €x, hvostAt5ã5. mr[4: Nf3ü xWEA8NÜ8NC4r5. µtsy: €x, w˜o †gDm1qMt9ø V mr[4: xsv †gDmKz, Nf3ü4. MM: People are starting to be taught snowmobile safety along with the establishment of rules and regulations. Do you see any effects on those initiatives? Maatiusi: Yes, of course. Safety with the snowmobile is being taken care of. There are training sessions in regards to safety and land environments. I am hoping these training sessions will continue. There are some people who are quite good at being out in the land and usually these people make it back home even if they were lost for a while. They survive because they had been taught how to survive in such a predicament. We lived in harmony with our dogs and although most of them were killed, a few remained and some people are now starting to raise them again. Now they are being used more on a recreational basis than when they were used as working dogs. MM: I suppose some of them are raised for use in dog team races. Maatiusi: That's right. MM: I thank you for this interview. Maatiusi: You're welcome. Are you ready for a cup of tea? MM: Yes, very much. Thank-you. MAKIVIK mag a zine 19
