2018 Awards Ceremony
The 7th Annual Arctic Inspiration Prize Awards Ceremony was a tremendous success in celebrating northern excellence and achievement. Held on February 12 in Whitehorse at the Yukon Arts Centre in conjunction with the Arctic Indigenous Investment Conference, five teams from across Canada's North were awarded a share of over $2.5 million to implement impactful and innovative projects that will improve the lives of people in their communities.
The AIP was pleased to welcome Juanita Taylor of CBC's Northbeat to host the ceremony alongside Luke Campbell of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations.
The ceremony featured a phenomenal, first ever pan-northern performance of Juno award winners Elisapie and Leela Gilday, along with Yukon's Diyet and special guest Wesley Hardisty.
