In recognition of National Indigenous Languages Day, the Office of Indigenous Relations is hosting a special event featuring Susan Aglukark, the award-winning Inuk singer-songwriter.
Susan Aglukark is one of Canada’s most distinctive artists—an award-winning Inuk singer-songwriter who blends Inuktitut and English with contemporary pop music. Through her work, she continues to share her experiences growing up in Nunavut and the realities faced by northern communities and Indigenous youth.

Through songs, stories, film, photos and music video tracks, Nomad will take you on the journey of the Canadian Inuit over the last generation, shedding light on some of the psychological and cultural impacts of rapid change in the North. NOMAD also gives a glimpse of the resilience and determination of a people who have maintained a quiet dignity despite near annihilation by disease, impacts of colonization and rapid change, a glimpse of the strengths of the traditional Inuit culture.
