This project was funded by the Community Action Program for Children (CAPC) and the Canada Prenatal Nutrition Program (CPNP) of the Public Health Agency of Canada. This project supported Pauktuutit to develop Inuit-specific material and resources that focus on second-hand smoke harm reduction based on the Action on Women’s Addictions – Research and Education (AWARE) program called Start Thinking About Reducing Second-Hand Smoke (STARSS). With the help of an advisory committee the original STARSS material and resources were adapted to be more relevant to Inuit in Nunavut, the Inuvialuit Settlement Region, Nunavik and Nunatsiavut.

This research report is the second of two documents dealing with the social impacts of mining activity near Qamani’tuaq (Baker Lake) on Inuit women and families in the community. The first report (March 2014) was based on interviews and qualitative data. This report deals with results of a questionnaire, with content developed in 2013 by Inuit women of Qamani’tuaq in the course of a week-long workshop.

The questionnaire was completed by 62 women, aged 19 years and older. The data deals with their experience, perceptions and feelings. While social impact research typically focuses on statistical indicators (rates at which services are engaged, facilities used, employment rates, training received, health statistics, etc.), there are considerable shortcomings to this approach. The quality of life experience is important. Regardless of what indicators may reveal, how women perceive and feel about their experiences are essential to appreciating impacts.
