- Title
Toward North Corps: Nurturing the Spirit of Inuit Independence while Pre-Empting a Movement for Inuit Secession.
- Authors
Zellen, Barry S.
- Abstract
The article discusses the peace treaty between Québec and Anglo-Canada and its implications on Québec's distinctiveness as a nation within a united Canada. It cites that tighter integration of the Inuit homeland together with the rest of Anglo-Canada is a threat to Canada's Arctic sovereignty. It mentions that the habitation of the Inuit of North America has resolved the land claims between Canada and the U.S. Both countries also agree on the "cede and surrender" clauses, which legally distinguish aboriginal title to their homelands. Furthermore, the Inuit independence movement leads to the declaration of the Circumpolar Inuit Declaration on Arctic Sovereignty on April 2009.
