The town page now opens with a drawing of Iqaluit at the head of Frobisher Bay — a boat and a qamutik resting on the exposed tidal flats, with the low houses on the tundra behind and the Baffin hills across the water.

How cold it really feels in Iqaluit — the wind chill now and over the next three days, and the hours exposed skin is at risk, on Environment Canada's scale. Quiet in summer; the one to check before the school run when the cold comes back.

Work out the cheapest way to get something to Iqaluit — ordered up on the summer barge, flown as air cargo, or bought at the store — from its weight and size. It uses the carriers' real pricing rules and this year's rates, which you can change to match your own quote.

Official Canadian Hydrographic Service tide predictions for Iqaluit — today's highs and lows and the week ahead, for the small-craft harbour, the flats and going out on the water. Includes the local marine-safety numbers (there is no 911 in Nunavut).

Three tools to start: live Environment Canada weather warnings paired with the City's blizzard line for whether the city is open, a daylight clock for the long northern light, and a who-to-call directory with the City, RCMP, hospital and power-outage numbers.
