Your drastic and inappropriate simplification in this matter only reveals your ignorance and/or arrogance on this particular subject.
It's a simple problem.
If they aren't happy with the prices of food, then they can either live off the land, get a better paying job, or move to a place they can afford.
It's not like it's cheap to move goods to the Arctic, either. Fuel and drivers cost a lot, plus they lose out on the economies of scale. On top of that, many roads are only passable a few weeks out of the year.
Harper should be subsidizing their food until a road can be built to the North,
As much as I detest this kind of thing happening in Canada,
I'm hoping that the people that respond to this thread don't get this thread locked.
Don't fight about these people,
Please keep your replies within normal shocked perimeters.
Keep them alive.

Seriously? The rest of us are obliged to pay for the food of people who choose, by their own free will, to live in a barren wasteland?
That makes zero sense at all.
It's akin to me saying that I'd like to live in the desert, and expecting everyone else to pay for it.

Why build a new territory if you aren't ready to equalize the cost of living in it?
Perhaps Harper should have thought about that before allowing the territory to form itself.
Having to move is such a defeatist attitude,
Just because you can't afford to eat doesn't mean you should disband a territory and move.

Build a new territory? Allowing the territory to form itself?
Nunavut was formed in 1999, when it separated from the NWT. As much as I dislike Harper, he didn't have a thing to do with it.
Neither of those is a cogent argument for publicly funding a futile settlement.

So the solution is to ignore them then

By helping them move to a more hospitable part of the country. We have a duty to help people, but not in whatever way pleases them. It must be in the best interests of the nation.
