Photographic serie: supplying Hudson’s Bay Company posts and patrolling arctic waters (BAnQ)
Photographs taken during the summer of 1944 by the geographer Pierre Dagenais during a long-haul journey towards Labrador with stops at Cartwright, Hebron and Baffin (Cape Dorset) on board the Nascopie, a supply ship for remote posts of the Far North of the Hudson’s Bay Company. These annual excursions under the aegis of the federal government were designed to establish Canadian sovereignty in the Arctic and study related emerging issues. These photographs highlight scenes related to the provision of food and everyday consumer goods to island Inuit communities.
