Needless to say, itwas a proud moment in time.On this 20th anniversary of the NLCA,we are compelled to look back at the pathwe’ve taken from 1993 until now, celebrateour accomplishments and look forward toour future. We finally achieved the dreamof Nunavut – a territory and a governmentwe could call our own. We took control ofour destiny, and began to make our own decisionsand chart our own path. Today, theGN is engaging Nunavummiut in a waythat would have been difficult to imaginepre-1999. This is progress, but we mustkeep pushing. The NLCA did not give usanything that wasn’t already ours. What itdid do was allow us to transition into whatwe are today. It made the rest of the worldrecognize us as a proud people with a richheritage and a strong will. It allowed us tolook to the future and chart a course for ourpeople. Today, we are fulfilling the dreamso many Inuit had when I was a young man– a dream of a better tomorrow and thestrength to do things our way.We continue to face many challenges. Weare still plagued by suicide and substanceabuse, by violence and poverty, and by afederal government that has not honouredthe commitments it made in the NLCA.20mi ukiuni, Kanatami MaligaliuktitlungaNunavumut, aliahuktunga ukakhimagamaMaligaliukvimi ikayukhugit nuutititjutikhaitNLCAmik, Tungavik Federation ofNunavut aivaktiit kungiaktitlugit kungiakviani.Ukainakhunga, aliahuktunga talvaniubluanik.20mi ukiumi ilitagitjutikhait NLCAmik,piniaktugut kinguptinik kinikluta pihimayaptinik1993mit, aliahukluta inikhimayaptinikovalo hivumut kiniklutahivunikhaptinik.
