This thesis focuses on the knowledge and perspectives of Pond Inlet community members. The principal aims are: 1.- Explore the traditional knowledge (Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit) held by Pond Inlet elders and land user, and 2. – Document which “traditional rules” are considered important by Pond Inlet residents, and identify formal laws, regulations, and guidelines, and how these differ from community “rules”. Both objectives relate to CST and the management of Sirmilik National Park and Bylot Island Migratory Bird Sanctuary. The information presented in this thesis provides the basis for better understanding of Pond Inlet community experiences and observations about CST and its impacts. Addressing these impacts and increasing opportunities for local benefit, will potentially improve attitudes towards tourism while at the same time ensure improvements in ecosystem health, the economy, and the local way of life.
