article: Youth suicides, violence: Nunavut community of Pangnirtung calling out for help amid 'sense of desperation'

May 23
Riita Strickland, the assistant deputy minister of justice at the Government of Nunavut and Mike Jeffrey, the chief superintendent of the RCMP "V" division in Nunavut, at a special meeting held last night in Pangnirtung. Officials who work in mental health, poverty reduction, public safety, as well as at the Department of Justice and the RCMP, flew to Pangnirtung this week in response to an urgent plea for help issued by the hamlet following a wave of suicide attempts and violent incidents.

"Your community is like other communities in Nunavut where the crime is increasing slightly, in this community in particular over the last three years," Jeffrey said.

In February, a dozen youth are known to have attempted suicide within two weeks. In February and March, calls made to a poison control centre in the south were higher in Pangnirtung than in any other Nunavut community. In April there was a death by suicide, after the community saw no suicides in 2017.
“Even though our meeting has ended, the situation we are in will not stop,” said Deputy Mayor David Kooneeliusie
