John Tuzo Wilson (1908-1993)
With the death of Dr. John Tuzo Wilson on 15 April 1993, Canada lost a renowned scientist, and the North lost one of its most enthusiastic supporters. ... At the outbreak of the Second World War, Jock joined the Canadian Army, proceeding overseas with the First Canadian Division in January 1940. He was recalled to Canada in 1943 to become the first director of Operational Research at National Defence Headquarters. Recognizing that Canada should p…

The Circumpolar North: A Political and Economic Geography of the Arctic and Sub-Arctic
A sub-title describes this book as a political and economic geography of the Arctic and sub-Arctic, and it was designed to be more of a text and reference book than as something to be read right through for interest and pleasure. No single reviewer could hope to judge of its accuracy when, for example, the first named author has spent more of his life than, probably, any other English speaker studying the available Russian literature on the subje…
Bernhard Hantzsch: The probable cause of his death in Baffin Island in 1911
Bernhard Hantzsch was a German zoologist and explorer, born in 1875, whose first work in Canada was in northernmost Labrador in 1906. He returned to the north in 1909 with the object of exploring the then unknown Foxe Basin coast of Baffin Island. His plan was to set off from Cumberland Sound and travel with Eskimos across Baffin Island by way of Nettilling Lake and the Koukdjuak River, follow the coast north and west to Fury and Hecla Strait, an…

The Canadian Eskimo today
There has been no time since the end of the Second World War when it could not have been said that the Canadian Eskimos were at a critical point in their history. The north has become a part of the world as a whole, and the Eskimos, caught in the course of world events, have become subject to changes that affect every aspect of their lives. This is inevitable, and all concerned recognize it as an inescapable fact. Some writers have simplified the…

An Unusual Archaeological Specimen from Foxe Basin
Note on artifacts collected by Eskimos and said to have come from Pingerqalik on the east coast of Melville Peninsula south of Igloolik Island; mainly Thule type, with a small number of Dorset type and one artifact showing characteristics of both types
The Dorset Culture of the Eastern Arctic
Snow-House Building
Igloo is one of the few Eskimo words that most white people understand, and shares with kayak and oomiak the distinction of appearing in almost all English dictionaries and occasional cross-word puzzles. The great majority of Eskimos, however, have never seen a snow house and it is only among the Central tribes (roughly those living in Canada east of the Mackenzie) that it has reached its fullest development. One result of this is that it has sel…
