The Nunivaat Analytics is a series of analytical bulletins that explores, with the help of statistics, different aspects of the social and economic situation of the Nunavik region. Entitled "Nunavik Employment Profile and Trends at a Glance", the most recent Nunivaat Analytics bulletin seeks to highlight the distinctive employment characteristics of Nunavik by comparing its situation with that of Quebec as a whole, and to describe the main contrasts between the two in terms of the gender, age and identity of Nunavik’s labour force. This bulletin is available here.

Statistics Canada has recently released the first data from the 2021 Census. For the moment, these are data on the total population in 2021, the change in population compared to the previous census and the number of dwellings per village. These data are available here.

The Ministère des Affaires municipales et de l'Habitation du Québec (MAMH) recently released the 2022 Population Decree for the Northern villages. These data are the benchmark for the application of laws and regulations as well as for the management of government programs.
