Canada's Most Mysterious Ghost Towns

Please watch: "Why Does Canada Hate Bike Lanes ?"

Nunavut is Canada's most sparsely populated province. It is also the country's largest and most Northern Territory. Created in 1999 with the Nunavut Act, it is also the most recent major change in the country's maps since Newfoundland's admission in 1949.

While it may appear recent, this territory, this piece of land has long been inhabited by the Inuit and Dorset cultures for a long, long time, sadly, many of these original villages no longer exist, so today, let's look at three different ghost towns in Nunavut and explain their history and why they are no longer inhabited.

Another great video. But I was surprised that you didn't mention the most remote one, Isachsen, on Ellef Ringnes Island. In 1949, a Douglas C-47 cargo plane crashed near it, and the weather has preserved the wreckage. Isachsen was abandoned in 1978, but it still appears on maps. It has the worst weather in Canada with a Climate Severity Index of 99 out of a possible 100. Perhaps you left it out because it was a weather station and plans to settle Inuit there were never carried out. But it's really nifty, and worth a mention. Its weather monitoring functions have been taken over by the more habitable Eureka, on Ellesmere Island, which has been called "The Garden Spot of the Arctic" by some scientist with a screw loose.
