Initially established in 1995 as a response to the escalating needs for culturally sensitive programs offered in Inuktitut and English, Isuarsivik began its journey in a modest facility built in 1942. This initial facility had just three bedrooms and a capacity of nine guests at a time. As the needs of the region continued to grow, so did the aspirations of Isuarsivik.

This successful campaign garnered over 200 candidates, filling 27 vacant positions required to offer the 27 DEC 2023 | BUSINESS ELITE CANADA
