About

Climate change has had a devastating impact on the Arctic region and its diverse wildlife population. Caribou have been forced to migrate to new locations in search of food, shrinking sea ice has stolen the source of refuge for narwhals and Beluga whales, and polar bears have lost a vast majority of their hunting grounds. I am excited to engage in meaningful discussions with the Inuit community in order to promote new legislation that will better protect the Arctic region and its animal kingdom.
