INUIT QAUJIMAJATUQANGINNUT



INUIT QAUJIMAJATUQANGINNUT (IQ) afternoon. Thursday afternoon was an IQ afternoon, we went ice fishing to practice some traditional, outdoor, cultural activities. This was my first time ever ice fishing. It was a nice sunny afternoon, temperature was around -6C.




We jigged for fish, and I caught one (known locally as a whitefish), not bad for a first timer!

Posing with my catch.
