 At
our September meeting Malaya Zehr connected us with Inuit culture and
history. She taught us a few words in Inuktitut and the importtance of
facial expressions. She explained that Nunavut has only one hospital
and many of the 25 communities have only Community Health
Centres. As a result many patients need care in the south and in
particlar Ottawa. This is where Bafin Larga is important in providing
meals, accommodations, transportation to and from theairport and
appointments.
