Tartan Type Commemorative Tartan (Unofficial)

Marks Founding of Nunavut, 1 April 1999

Meaning of Name Nunavut — "our land" in Inuktitut

Best For Northern and Canadian Heritage

About the Nunavut Tartan

Nunavut has no official tartan, and it is worth saying so plainly. When the territory was created on 1 April 1999, its leaders chose to express Nunavut's identity through Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit — Inuit traditional knowledge — and through Inuit symbols such as the inuksuk on the territorial flag, rather than through a Scottish sett.

The designs that exist are therefore commemorative and unofficial, made by admirers to mark the founding of the territory. Worn in that spirit — as a tribute to the North rather than as an official emblem — a Nunavut tartan is a way for Canadians and northern visitors to honour the youngest territory.

Nunavut Tartan Pattern and Colours

This collection draws on the colours of the far North: the blue-grey of sea ice and open water, the white of snow, the slate of rock and the pale gold of a sun that hangs low over the land for much of the year.

Nunavut Heritage

Nunavut means our land in Inuktitut, one of the territory's official languages. Created on 1 April 1999 out of the eastern Northwest Territories, it covers about a fifth of Canada's land mass — the mainland tundra, Baffin, Ellesmere and the whole Arctic archipelago — with a population of only some tens of thousands, the great majority of them Inuit.

Its capital is Iqaluit on Baffin Island. The creation of Nunavut followed decades of negotiation and remains one of the most significant land claim settlements anywhere in the world, giving Inuit a territory governed from within their own homeland. Its symbols — the inuksuk, the qulliq lamp, the languages of its people — are the emblems that Nunavummiut themselves have chosen.
