  • Created on April 1, 1999
  • Covers all of Nunavut with respect to court services
  • Travels to app. 85% of the communities across the territory
  • Does not travel to smaller communities where there’s no RCMP as very little crime is reported there
  • Single-level trial court consisting of three superior court judges based in Iqaluit
  • Meant to be more responsive to the unique needs and cultural values of Nunavut's majority Inuit population
