Recent reports of unauthorized and unaffiliated fundraising initiatives falsely representing the City are concerning.

The City of Iqaluit advises residents of a complete road closure at the intersection of Queen Elizabeth Way and Sinaa Street (in front of the Elders Qammaq) from November 22 to December 1, 2024. This closure is necessary for the installation of new sewer lines.
Detours:
Snow and ice are already covering Iqaluit’s roads, and temperatures are expected to remain just below the freezing point for the remainder of the season. The City of Iqaluit reminds motorists to exercise caution, as these conditions create very slippery roads, likely to persist throughout the week.
The City of Iqaluit would like to remind all business owners that the online portal for 2025 business license renewals is now open.
