Canadian Rangers | Alan Gignoux
Alan Gignoux’s 2008 coverage of Tayoloak, an Inuit settlement in Nunavut, tells the story of Canadian Rangers in training. Hired dominantly from the local Inuit population, the Rangers are part-time reservists, providing military assistance in remote, isolated, and coastal communities of Northern Canada. They are known as the “eyes and ears of the North” - using their time to report unusual activities or sightings, collecting data of significance for the Canadian Forces, and conducting surveillance or sovereignty patrols.
A gorgeous hand-stitched zine, postcard attachments front and back, and an incredible story.
