This year, QIA will be distributing country food instead of a feast, due to COVID-19 restrictions. Inuit in Iqaluit can pick-up country food on Thursday, October 7 from 3 to 5pm, on Inuit Owned Land between Northmart and Nakasuk School.  Please respect social distancing and keep at least two metres apart from others when picking up country food.
