Cruise Tourism Research Project

As part of the ‘Cruise Tourism in Arctic Canada’ (CTAC) project interviews were conducted with residents in communities including: Pond Inlet, Ulukhaktok, Cambridge Bay, Gjoa Haven, and Nain.

During 2010, 47 people who have a connection to the cruise sector in Pond Inlet were interviewed. The questions related to the costs and benefits of the industry to the community. Those interviewed were also asked to think about strategies to minimize the costs and maximize the benefits of cruise tourism to the community, as well as to Nunavut more generally. This blog explains what the people in Pond Inlet had to say.
