Kangiqsujuaq
"Ski-doo parts get picked up a lot."
Noah Anogak, Inuit
In Kangiqsujuaq, where Noah works as a garbage collector, the dump occupies a vast area near the village. You can find everything there. What’s not burned is placed on the site and everyone can come and help themselves. The motor vehicle area’s a real store of used parts, especially for snowmobiles. In this isolated region where no trees grow, the building materials section is always busy. Anything that isn’t recovered will remain there. Here, as elsewhere, consumption leaves traces that even time can’t completely erase.
