The special guest for the event was Leona Aglukkaq, MP for Nunavut. Costas Menegakis, MP for Richmond Hill also addressed the gathering.
The event had a northern Aboriginal theme and featured a silent auction of Inuit art with a broad offering of pieces donated by Nunavut residents and supplemented with a selection from Toronto-based Inuit art dealer, Feheley Fine Arts.
The event was also attended by a number of Aboriginal leaders from Ontario and Manitoba including former National Chief Phil Fontaine. Chief Fontaine thanked Ms. Aglukkaq for attending and for her entertaining speech, in which she described her Inuit roots growing up on the land in the Arctic, living a traditional lifestyle.
Proceeds from the event were shared with the Nunvaut EDA.
