In tonight’s top story: Twenty per cent of Canada’s land mass will soon be in the hands of the government of Nunavut. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was in the territory’s capital Iqaluit on Thursday, signing the Nunavut Lands and Resources Devolution Agreement, saying it was a “historic day” for not just Nunavut, but for the entire country. It’s being called a new beginning for the Inuit and First Nations people in Nunavut to control their land and their future. David Akin explains the importance of this deal.
