Natan Obed

President of Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK)

Natan Obed is serving his third term as President of Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, the national organization working to ensure that Inuit in Canada prosper through unity and self-determination. He is originally from Nain, Nunatsiavut, and currently lives in Ottawa. A skilled negotiator and consensus builder, Obed is the architect of the Inuit Crown Partnership Committee, a collaborative leadership table devoted to addressing the most urgent policy challenges facing Inuit, and creating conditions for Inuit to thrive.

He has devoted his career to working on behalf of Inuit. Working with Inuit Treaty Organizations, he led the development and implementation of national strategies intended to bring about transformational change in the areas of suicide prevention, research, food security and climate change, and is now forging a path to build an Inuit Nunangat University. He is a graduate of Tufts University, holds honorary degrees from Queen’s University and the University of Northern British Columbia, and is the father of two teenage boys, Panigusiq and Jushua Obed.

Revitalizing La

Since time immemorial, Inuit have lived and thrived in Inuit Nunangat, our homeland encompassing 36 per cent of Canada’s landmass and 50 per cent of its coastline. Inuit Nunangat as a geographic and political space is largely unknown to most Canadians. In this time of reconciliation, we as Inuit are forcefully reclaiming our proper place as an Indigenous people in Canada by asserting Inuit self- determination through our language, our place names and our history.

Our ancestors were ingenious and inventive, prospering in an environment that many outsiders have unfairly characterized as bleak and inhospitable. Today, Inuit culture and society remain dynamic and resilient: our language, Inuktut, is one of the strongest Indigenous languages in Canada by proportion of speakers, with the majority of our population reporting the ability to speak the language; our people have made lasting and deepening imprints nationally and internationally in the arts; and through political activity Inuit leaders have changed the map of Canada and influenced the manner in which the federal government works with Indigenous Peoples. We have also maintained our vital connection to the land, streams
