Scope and contentThe file contains a presentation by Mary Carpenter. Carpenter, a member of the Inuvialuit Tribe, claims to be at the sitting to "represent the voice of the Inuit who have been silenced by our Inuit leaders." Carpenter gives her view of the High Arctic Relocation program, and makes allegations that members of the Inuit community threatened to have her murdered if she spoke out about any issues to the Commission.
