In my opinion, yes. I'm thinking specifically about permafrost mapping in communities and adaptation work on the ground.
In Nunavik, for example, the main concern of Inuit communities is access to resources for hunting and fishing. This access has become less and less safe as a result of climate change. There are also issues with the construction and foundations of houses and with runway maintenance.
Since Nunavik is part of Quebec, the Quebec government has funded many studies. When I work in Nunavik, 80% of my funding comes from Quebec and 20% comes from other sources, such as the federal government.
When I work in Nunavut, almost 100% of my funding comes from the federal government. A small portion comes from the Nunavut government. It's a bit more challenging because the funding is less consistent. Federal programs are intermittent.
