Epigituk Landholding Corporation of Killiniq

Information about the community

The community of Killiniq was a village located in an island of Nunavut very close from the main land of Nunavik. Because of its close links with Nunavik communities, the Inuit from Killiniq have been included as beneficiaries of the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement and were allocated Category I and II lands.

The village of Killiniq was closed in 1979 and its population relocated in various communities of Nunavik, most particularly in Quaqtaq and Kangiqsualujjuaq. At the present time, the old residents of Killiniq are mainly regrouped in the village of Kangiqsualujjuaq. The Board of Directors of Epigituk Landholding Corporation administers Killiniq Category I and II lands from that community.
