The Nunavut Land Claims Agreement, signed in 1993, is a land claims agreement between the Inuit of the Nunavut Settlement Area as represented by the Tungavik Federation of Nunavut and Her Majesty The Queen in Right of Canada. It is by far the largest of the four land claims agreements reached between Canadian governments and the Inuit. It covers one-fifth of the Canadian land mass, an area twice the size of Ontario. The Nunavut Land Claims Agreement for the first time explicitly recognized "the contributions of Inuit to Canada's history, identity and sovereignty in the Arctic.

[Cette étude] illustre bien l'utilisation et l'intégration du [Qaujimajatuqangit inuit («ce que les Inuit connaissent de longue date»)] aux approches occidentales. En vertu de l'article 5 de l'Accord sur les revendications territoriales du Nunavut, le Conseil de gestion des ressources fauniques du Nunavut a mené une étude sur les migrations et les stocks de baleines boréales. Pour cela, il a recouru aussi bien au savoir écologique traditionnel (connaissances des [Aînés] acquises par l'observation et le vécu) qu'à la science moderne. Cette étude fournit des renseignements sur les routes de migration et les stocks de baleines dans la région du Nunavut. 2, record 2, French, - %C3%89tude%20des%20connaissances%20des%20Inuit%20sur%20les%20baleines%20bor%C3%A9ales
