There's something special happening via ᐃᓄᐃᑦ ᐅᓂᒃᑳᖏᑦ (Inuit Unikkaangit) The @CBCNorth podcast resurfaces archival stories told by Inuit in Inuktitut. When host @MaryPowder1 plays them, many of the storytellers' descendants are hearing them for the first time. (1/4)

We have a great story about the Qallupilluk on the podcast Inuit Unikkaangit. But we didn’t know who was telling it. Now we do. It’s Koonoo Ipirq! Her family and friends recognised her voice: cbc.ca/listen/cbc-podcasts/4… Artwork: Jessica Winters

Arrived in Hay River, where breakup is stalled. Broadcasting the show from here in the morning. Will also hear the latest from Jean Marie River and Fort Simpson. We are beholden to Mother Nature. And that has already been hard on a number of people and communities. #cbcnorth – at Hay River Dene 1, Northwest Territories
