Our Land
Nunavut, Canada’s largest territory, extends over 2 million square kilometres, covering one fifth of the Canadian landmass. This vast region of mostly barren land and permafrost consists of all those parts of Canada which lie north of the 60th parallel and east of the western boundary shown on the map that are not part of either Quebec or Newfoundland and Labrador. It includes the islands in Hudson Bay, James Bay and Ungava Bay which do not belong to Manitoba, Ontario or Quebec. Nunavut means "Our land" in Inuktitut, the Inuit language.
