The Inuit People

Terminology & Info Inuit - Inuktitut for “the people” the majority of whom inhabit the northern regions of Canada. An Inuit person is known as an Inuk. Eskimo is not a politically correct term Although the name "Eskimo" is commonly used, this name is considered derogatory in many other places because it was given by non-Inuit people and was said to mean "eater of raw meat.“ Edmonton Eskimos??? Statistics Canada estimated that 59,440 people in Canada, about 4.2 per cent of the Aboriginal population, identified themselves as Inuit. Terminology & Info
