For any future updates, it should be noted that yet another polity has just been created: Nunatsiavut in Labrador

'The total settlement area covers 72,520 square kilometres of northern Labrador. The Inuit will become the owners of 15,800 square kilometres of land – two per cent of Labrador's land mass – and they will co-manage the remaining area.

The Inuit also will have special rights along the coast to 44,030 square kilometres of sea.

The agreement includes benefits for the more than 2,000 Inuit living in Labrador, but outside the settlement area.

The Inuit also will gain the right to control health, education and justice in five communities.'
