Hi there, I am a looking forward to returning to Canada's eastern Arctic. I will be leaving B.C. west coast this Friday to spend the summer up in Iqaluit, Nunavut. My husband, son and I left Iqaluit in the mid 90's after having lived there for 10+ years. I have been spending the last two summers up in the Arctic, namely Cape Dorset but this year we are returning to our old home town.

Beautiful flowers and country side!
Hi Marj and Mike. I always feel a bit sad when you are leaving the Arctic because you do not have as much time in BC to write Marj and we lose touch a bit! Your pictures are just beautiful, every time, and they make me a bit home sick? But of course it will be nice for you both to be home for a while with your family and so I wish you both well and God Bless you both. With love and hugs Pam xo

I think the idea of recruiting from the north is great as long as they are not recruiting to go to Afghanistan. Sunsets are beautiful.
