    Tour through the downtown core of Iqaluit where the Sealift operates - ending up at the Northmart. Watch for kids on bikes, someone pulled over by the cops, people taking pictures and a dog walking across the street - so much to see in under 3 minutes!

    It seems like a cool place that's laid back and focused on simplicity and tranquility. Thanks for sharing. Andy ~ 🇨🇦

      Remote living has brought me back to memories of growing up in the 70s during a simpler time. I believe this video captures that. Thank you for the comment, Andy! Bang on :)

      @@fellowworker369 I can see and understand how you came to this conclusion. Here on the East Coast, things are a lot busier even on a calm day. Growing up in the 60s and 70s was all about freedom and spending most of our time outside. It was easy living and efficient even without technology. Yup, I lived through it.
      Times have sure changed Fellow Worker. The world has changed! It's a much different time and a much different place now. Andy ~

    l'm 63 years old and Iqaluit reminds of my life when I was 5-10 years old, just beautiful.

      Yes, JoestevEB, same! I used to see kids playing in puddles, riding bikes, collecting stones - things I did as a kid :) Thank you for commenting.

    Nunavut need solar GREEN HOUSES for the supply of vegetables.

    • @fellowworker369
      @fellowworker369  Před měsícem +1

      Well, vegetables are not part of the original Inuit diet; many do eat them now but it's not part of their original culture. It would be more for the Southerners who visit and work there...

    Do you ever miss trees and greenery? Human mind needs to see green to relax

    • @fellowworker369
      @fellowworker369  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Ahhhh interesting comment @christaball93_. Thank you! No, I did not miss them. I enjoyed seeing them when I went down South and even hugged them! However, the tundra is green, is fascinating, changes colour during Autumn, and is very, very peaceful. I can relax on the tundra, breathe the clean air, feel the Arctic winds and hear the waves in Frobisher Bay
