The Department of Justice is hosting a Firearm Safety Awareness Week in Iqaluit, February 5 to February 9, as part of the Qukiutiliritsiarniq Nunavummi – Firear
The Community Justice division of the Department of Justice is working to decrease injuries and incidents involving firearms through its Qukiutiliritsiarniq Nunavummi – Firearm Safety Nunavut campaign.
The best campaign for Nunavummiut is one made by Nunavummiut. That is why the Department of Justice needs your help to “Aim for a name” for Nunavut’s new firearm safety campaign.
In September, the Department of Justice launched “Aim for a name”, which asked Nunavummiut for their help in finding a culturally appropriate name for the new departmental firearm safety campaign.
If you plan to drive at Sylvia Grinnell Territorial Park, please be aware that temporary speed reduction devices (speed bumps) will be installed on the Park roadways starting on July 18, 2018.
The Government of Nunavut reminds Nunavummiut to keep their firearms properly stored, either in gun cabinets or secured with a trigger lock when they are not in use.
