Languages in Nunavut, 2021 / by Daphne Fernandes, Paula Arriagada and Étienne Lemyre.CS89-657/2024-7E-PDF

"Now that results from the 2021 Census are available, the Government of Nunavut mandated Statistics Canada to provide an up-to-date picture of the language situation in Nunavut with results from the latest census. This report covers the mother tongues and languages known, spoken at home or used at work among Inuit and non-Inuit Nunavummiut. To provide explanation and context for these trends, this report also examines factors associated with the growth or decline in the number of speakers of Nunavut’s official languages, such as the intergenerational transmission of language, home language retention, and migrations to and from the territory. Key census results for each of Nunavut’s three regions (Qikiqtaaluk, Kivalliq and Kitikmeot) and 25 communities are provided in the appendix"--Introduction, page 6.
