Nunavik is ending the year with another record number of tuberculosis cases, as provincial and federal officials say more resources are coming to stop the spread of the disease in the region and across Inuit Nunangat.
“Inuit are still hopeful and continue to be hopeful that we will work towards that elimination timeline by 2030 with continued resources from our federal counterparts,” said Mishael Gordon, who leads tuberculosis elimination efforts at Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, the national Inuit organization that has requested $131.6 million from the federal government to eliminate tuberculosis across Inuit Nunangat.
