Press Release

January 9, 2024

The Nunatsiavut Government and Parks Canada are working together to assess the feasibility of establishing the Torngat Area of Interest as an Inuit Protected Area under the Canada National Marine Conservation Areas Act.

From January 11-18, they will be travelling to engage with communities in Nunatsiavut to discuss the feasibility assessment process, where the Steering Committee will share highlights from the “What We Heard Report”, ensuring they’ve captured your input.

You can get the latest on other feedback from key stakeholders and receive information on the revised boundary, share your thoughts, request further feedback about the feasibility assessment process and next steps.
