It's not crazy to move there. It just proves you are a bold and curious person. What an awesome opportunity. The kids up there will learn a lot from you. I hope you and the community stay safe. Be well and all the best!
I am very impressed with your willingness to help and to take on such a challenge. This is not only a remote part of the world, but one of the harshest environments to withstand. We would love to hear a follow-up to see how you and your students are doing!
Thanks for checking in!! Im doing good here! Covid finally hit this region of Nunavut after 2 years, so the community is dealing with that currently. And with no hospitals here, only a clinic with a few nurses, it can be hard. Serious cases have to get flown out to yellowknife or Edmonton depending on the severity. Im going to upload some more videos soon dont worry🙂
I watch a ton of videos about people in Alaska, Sweden and Norway but I really wanted to find some Canadians that moved north in Canada. Thanks for documenting your trip! I’m subbing and hoping you post more 😃
@@zabavnaya-xt8tb I’m not from Alberta so moving anywhere colder then where I am in Ontario would be a dream to me. There’s been basically no snow here for years and I’m north of the big cities 🫤
I am interested in indigenous dialects and languages and I would like to move there and to Greenland for a few years because there is a lot of resemblance.
So why did you fly from Toronto to Edmonton instead of flying directly from Toronto to kugaaruk Nunavut ? because from what I see Toronto it is more close to kugaaruk😅
Thank you so much for showing a perspective of Nunuvut that not many show, most only show the built up areas of where they visit or move to, not the surrounds or the outskirts. One question....Did you survive the rush minute? We have read the snowmobiles go everywhere during the rush minute.
Your very welcome!! I will be adding a new video this week showing more of the town an subsequent videos answering any questions! And haha it's more like a rush second😁 by the time you blink the traffic is over !! I'll be posting more soon!!
hey bro just found you, your vids are sick! I'm so psyched to teach in the arctic after I finish my degree. I'm just a little Australian who's top two bucket list items are 1) see a narwhal and 2) play ice hockey on frozen lake under northern lights. was wondering what the social life is like in nunavut? is there much for young adults to do, places to meet people, other locals / teachers / travellers to go exploring with? all the best man
Hey Morgan!! Thank you so much for reaching out! Good news is you'll mostlikely be able to achieve both of your goals when you come here😁. I have seen tons of Narwhals and their tusks! Northern lights have become so common to me now that I don't even pay much attention as I once did haha. In terms of a social life and fun, it really depends on where you go and the people that are there. If you go to a place like Iqaluit or Arviat, (2 biggest cities) then you will have a good amount of things to do for fun because these places are much more developed. You actually have restaurants and a place to grab a drink. However your experience of the Arctic is also more watered down because these places are so much more developed. If you come to a place that I more remote like where I am, then you will have almost none of the amenities that your used to such as restaurants and a place to grab a drink for example. But on the flip side you have a lot more of a raw experience of what it means to live in the Arctic and there's way more chances to actually go out with locals on land trips an hunting. There's also more of a sense of community you feel as long as the town accepts you. So in summary it is definitely a different experience in a smaller town vs a larger town even if they are both in the Arctic. Add me on Instagram at @myles_the_teacha and dm any more questions you have🙂 id be happy to help
I am a Jamaican also, who is about to migrate to Canada, and there are two places I'm interested in living, and Nunavut is one of them.. I don't care what anyone wants to say, if you can make a difference, you shouldn't be afraid of challenges because others really need your help.. My brother, i wish i could join you right now.. Yes, it might be a lot colder there, but your capabilities could change a lot of lives there, i so wish i could be a part of this wonderful province.. How did you manage to secure residence there? What are the procedures??
@@mylesnmilestvWhat's the procedure to secure residence there? I'm a Jamaican who is about to migrate to Canada, and there are two places I am mainly interested in, one is Quebec and the other is Nanuvut.. How did you manage to secure residence there?
literally my dream rn to ditch vancouver an dip out to nunavut/nwt, good lookin bro! hope you're chilling over there.. hows the crime look? i see so many stats about it being bad, but not much else im just curious. also how'd u swing getting a good job out there??
Hey boss!! Vancouver is a beautiful man!! I went there this summer!! Haha, nunavut is like no other. You're a lot more free to do what you want in terms of hunting an fishing , and subsistence living. But I would only recommend coming here if you have a job lined up or else affording to live will be extremely hard. I applied to Ed- Canada and was granted the job by the Gov of Nunavut! Crime is bad in comparison to anywhere else in canada
Just checking in mate, hows things going over there? I'm still waiting for my Canadian Visa to come thru! It's almost been a whole year, hopefully it will come through soon. Estimated total of 58 weeks! I am dying to move now!!!
It's hard to believe that there are people who have never seen a tree before in their lives!!! let alone in Canada! It makes me wonder, what did they make their summer homes out of before wood? Or were there just no one living there before the importation?
Its very hard to believe! I have had a student ask me if a tree was a carnivore! When we were doing a unit in science. Summer homes before were largely tents that were stretched and made out of caribou skins!
Yooo I lived in mississauga for a while, and couldn't imagine Toronto mans ever living up there lol, holyyyy. Are you still working there?? Do you miss Toronto?? Hope you're doing well man, cheers
Loool Holaay is right, yea it's defff a huge culture shock, it's different in every single way. I'm still up here boss! And I miss Toronto like crazy! But this move has been good for me! I come visit home in the summer time so atleast I get to taste a bit of the city life once a year haha. I hope your doing well too! Please subscribe to my channel if you haven't boss, I'd love to have you around on my journey! Especially since your from the west end too haha
Mylesnmiles did u have fun kugaaruk and that was your first time in nunavut but i am from kinngait u should google it but if don't want to its gine but it was fun to watch u go to nunavut nice is nunavut fun
Thanks for this insightful mini-doc! I want to visit Nunavut one day because I’m fascinated by the culture, animals and landscape of the arctic. Don’t think I could live there though, I need Beach weather and trees at some point 😅 Also is it true that food is crazy expensive there? (Like $10 for a basic bag of chips, $15 for grapes, $50 for a case of beer) And if so how do you afford it?
First, thank you for the support!! And you are most welcome for the videos haha! You define have to visit the Arctic at least once to say you've done it!. Haha I miss the warm weather as well so you wouldn't be alone🤣 Yes the food is crazy expensive!! But I see that you witnessed that in my other video haha. The amount they pay here is a lot!! So we are able to afford the high cost of food an living 🙂
Hello, You have so far 365 subscribers and a teacher. I just got back from Nunavut and learn and felt very different than all my companions. I do have 99 questions and maybe one answer( I doubt that even legit or not though) It's been 9 months since you posted it here. Are you still there?
Hello Raff! How was your experience up here? What town did you visit? I actually last posted about 2 months ago, check out my latest video😁 And yes I am still here! I have just been very busy with teaching, running sports teams, programs and etc at school so I haven't had much time to edit. But hope to post more videos by Christmas time!😁
been there and here is some advise you wont last, the money will be great at first but you will realize pretty quick that you made a mistake going there. now there is no night life what so ever, I knew someone that moved up there to teach and she ended up leaving before the end of the school year. Good luck and im sure you wont stay!!!
This is so interesting, I have always been fascinated by the arctic regions of Canada but as someone from the UK I'll probably never be able to see it. The dream is to be able to go to Alert and be the most northern person in the world but, I don't know if that's even possible lollll
Thanks for commenting! Haha Don't say never! Its possible to visit up here 1 day😁. Alert on the other hand is less likely due to the fact its a military outpost. Any other questions you have about here I'd love to keep answering!!
@@mylesnmilestv yeah that's what I was thinking too, it seems like it's not really accessible to normal people. Eureka is the second most northern though, idk if that's even a town or a military type thing tho, honestly I'd settle for anywhere on Ellesmere island, grise fiord, resolute, anything
Peace my Friend, appreciate you showing your journey. I want to ask you. I recently saw an opportunity there for a social community worker. And I just graduated from that program in Toronto. So I applied for a job in nunuvant. How is it, if one goes up there to make they’re bread and comes back down to Toronto, is it good? Can you make good money and a good living up there? Also how’s the living there, rent, food, clothes ect… Appreciate it👍🏼
Hello hmk! I can't fully speak on how it is being a social worker here as i am a teacher, however based on what I would assume an bits I've seen, I'll give my take. From a financial standpoint, Nunavut is great for allowing you to make more money than you would if you were back in Toronto. Remember that everything is 3x more expensive than back home so you need to budget accordingly in order to effectively save. Apart from finances, I will be honest that living here can be very tough at times. We do have 24hour day light, but we also have 22hour darkness in the winter months.so you won't see the sun at all. if you get seasonally depressed it will take a toll on you. Apart from the major towns like Iqaluit, there is usually 1 cell tower present. This does go down from time to time an can last days. So a heads up that you could literally be cut off from contacting people back home via phone an internet for days to a week at a time. I know that a social worker may have a tough time at first in any new town because, locals (understandably so) will typically not trust you with info. It will be hard to have people open up to you for a while (due to colonialism/ Residencial schooling experience) and culturally. The cold is tough at the beginning, I go through -50 to -60celsius weather yearly and it's tough at the beginning, very very tough. So In summary, yes there are a lot of great financial gains to working here, experience gains and satisfaction in helping people. but you need to make sure your ready for all the challenges of living here when coming from southern Canada! If you have more questions please dm me on Instagram at @Myles_the_teacha Thank you for your support don't forget yo subscribe as well🙂
A few days ago I clicked on a Nunavet video now I keep getting recommendations for them. Super curious what it's like to be a black dude up there.... Like were you literally the only one in town? "Jamaican in the Arctic" seems like a real fish out of water scenario lol. And I know you were probably born here but I saw the Jamaican flag in your room so I assume that's your background.
Hey boss, thank you for reaching out! Well for starters, anything is possible truly. However interms of living up in the Arctic, it can be very very hard to adjust. Remember that most of the year it is freezing cold. We are talking -40 Celsius to -65 Celsius. You mention that you are from the middle east and as a Toronto Native who is Caribbean myself and grew up with a lot of middle eastern people, I know that there are cultural foods that you and I both eat. You will not be able to access any of that up here at all. There is 1 grocery store an the variety is not vast. If your someone that likes to keep in contact with family back home, it can be challenging at times as there is usually only 1 cellphone tower in a town. So if it goes down (which it will) you are cut off from the rest of the world down south. Overall if you are moving from the Middle East straight into Canada and you are coming up here in the Arctic as your 1st stop, I would be a bit hesitant. Personally speaking. I would advise moving to the south (Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver ) first an getting a feel of things before venturing up here. Up here is very very different than anywhere else in the world, however it would be a massive change coming from somewhere in the middle east an coming straight here. (Culturally, mentally, and environmentally speaking)
It definitely allows you to save! $93k would be your base salary mostlikely but you would also get a Northern allowance between $15k-40k onto of your base salary depending where you live. Remove all thoughts of amenities and services from your mind, because there are none🤣
@@mylesnmilestv hahaha i got you bro xD so i applied for job there but still they didn’t reply on me dunno if it takes time ?😂 I even wish to move there as a step for permanent residence in canada 😂❤️
@@dr.ahmedalaadrake614 hopefully they reply to you soon! I know a few people who have used here as a step.into permanent residence. However I must warn you, here is one of the most extreme places in all the world to live in haha. It's about as different as it could get in comparison to say Toronto for example
Good question!! Haha surprisingly yes!! There's a couple other Jamaican teachers in my town , 2 more that is, and a few west African people (Ghanian and. Nigerian) as well, however there is probably 10 of us in total haha
to teach about building a robot so a child doesnt get tortured into doing shit they dont have to do and they can build that shit on field trips to get resources... is the facility even safe enough? Lol global warming affects etc.
It's not crazy to move there. It just proves you are a bold and curious person. What an awesome opportunity. The kids up there will learn a lot from you. I hope you and the community stay safe. Be well and all the best!
Thank you soo much !! And yes I have learned a lot from the kids and town as a whole, thank you again for your comment!!
Omg how excited. Just found your channel. The arctic Fascinates me. I hope to go one day as an Ontario country girl!!

For someone from middle east is it possible to live there? Please be honest cuz I got opportunity to live there
Hey boss, thank you for reaching out! Well for starters, anything is possible truly. However interms of living up in the Arctic, it can be very very hard to adjust. Remember that most of the year it is freezing cold. We are talking -40 Celsius to -65 Celsius. You mention that you are from the middle east and as a Toronto Native who is Caribbean myself and grew up with a lot of middle eastern people, I know that there are cultural foods that you and I both eat. You will not be able to access any of that up here at all. There is 1 grocery store an the variety is not vast. If your someone that likes to keep in contact with family back home, it can be challenging at times as there is usually only 1 cellphone tower in a town. So if it goes down (which it will) you are cut off from the rest of the world down south.
Overall if you are moving from the Middle East straight into Canada and you are coming up here in the Arctic as your 1st stop, I would be a bit hesitant. Personally speaking. I would advise moving to the south (Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver ) first an getting a feel of things before venturing up here. Up here is very very different than anywhere else in the world, however it would be a massive change coming from somewhere in the middle east an coming straight here. (Culturally, mentally, and environmentally speaking)
I love your video but too cold for me
Haha thank you!! An yess the cold is definitely not for everybody😁
Bro does the salary of 93,000 per year cool there if i want to make some good savings ?
And what about amenities and services ?😭
It definitely allows you to save! $93k would be your base salary mostlikely but you would also get a Northern allowance between $15k-40k onto of your base salary depending where you live. Remove all thoughts of amenities and services from your mind, because there are none🤣
@@mylesnmilestv hahaha i got you bro xD so i applied for job there but still they didn’t reply on me dunno if it takes time ?😂
I even wish to move there as a step for permanent residence in canada 😂❤️
@@dr.ahmedalaadrake614 hopefully they reply to you soon! I know a few people who have used here as a step.into permanent residence. However I must warn you, here is one of the most extreme places in all the world to live in haha. It's about as different as it could get in comparison to say Toronto for example
