<i>Inuvialuit Sivuniksait Kappiangaqiyuaq.</i> The Urgent Question of Inuvialuit Futures and Its Relation to the Care of Ancestors and Their Belongings
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract In 1969, Indigenous communities of the Mackenzie Delta came together to voice their/our sovereign concerns in the face of mounting social and environmental pressures. A collective Inuvialuit identity would emerge as Inuvialuit fieldworkers traveled the Delta and Beaufort Sea coastlines documenting the testimonies of Elders and harvesters to honor and continue their/our cherished land-based lifestyle. These efforts culminated in the Inuvialuit Final Agreement of 1984, a land claim signed with the Government of Canada. This chapter explores the concept of Inuvialuit Sivuniksait Kappiangaqiyuaq, the urgent question of Inuvialuit futures, in relation to the care of ancestors and their/our belongings that are subject to the rampant effects of the climate crisis. Drawing on Inuvialuit leadership’s guiding principles and heritage priorities within the context of ongoing self-government negotiations, the authors explore aspects of Inuvialuit Nutim Malirutaksiat, the traditional ways of governance and customary principles of Inuvialuit, and Inuvialuit Pitqusimik Ilisimaniq, the ever-present orally transmitted traditional knowledge and science required to live well and in harmony. The authors consider how heritage policy development may be based on the guidance of Inuvialuit Elders and knowledge-holders, past and present, and how this process is central to decolonizing relations between communities of decision makers.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
