Nov 29, 2024
Dan Vandal, Dennis Patterson, P.J. Akeeagok and Lori Idlout reflect on Aluki Kotierk’s legacy
Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. is losing a fierce advocate, household name and a president who redefined NTI’s role in Nunavut.
In interviews with Nunatsiaq News, territorial and federal leaders shared these observations at the end of Aluki Kotierk’s two terms as president of the organization mandated to ensure promises made under the Nunavut Agreement are carried out.
Kotierk herself did not respond to a request for an interview.
Inuit beneficiaries voted for Kotierk in the 2016 and 2020 NTI elections.
