Povungnetuk and its cooperative : a case study in community change / by Frank G. Vallee.: R42-3/1967-2E-PDF

"Since 1959 no less than sixteen cooperative societies have been incorporated in Canada's Arctic, twelve of them in the Northwest Territories and four in Northern Quebec - or, as it is now called - New Quebec. When we consider that there are only about 13,000 Eskimos in Canada, the establishment of so many cooperatives represents a social movement of outstanding significance, particularly for community organization in Arctic settlements. The purpose of this paper is to document the impact which one such cooperative society, and its companion credit union, has in the settlement of Povungnetuk on the east side of Hudson Bay."--Introduction.
