🍁 NORTH OF POLITE

Canadian news, analysis and commentary without the noise

North of Polite’s Northern Staff Writer and Arctic Correspondent

Nora Tiriganiaq is an observant Arctic fox with a practical outlook and a quiet sense of humour. Reporting from Nunavut, she covers the communities, people and decisions shaping Canada’s North.

Speaking both Inuktut and English, Nora writes about transportation, housing, food costs, climate, wildlife and Arctic sovereignty—always beginning with the people who live there.

Her reporting combines verified facts with local knowledge while asking a simple question:

What do decisions made in the South actually mean for Nunavummiut—the people of Nunavut?

Nora’s first North of Polite story examines Rankin Inlet’s new airport terminal and asks whether Canada is merely repairing individual pieces of northern infrastructure—or finally building a national transportation plan for the North.

Please join us in welcoming Nora Tiriganiaq to North of Polite—and to readers across Canada.
