	A Case of Compounded Error
		The "Cape Herschel Project" (Alexandra Fiord) was fully detailed, with reference to the presence of Greenlanders (requiring policing of the area) and to the plan to "move in" Canadian Inuit where there were presently none and "establish them in the native way of life." The "Craig Harbour Project" was described simply as "similar".
		The Grise Fiord detachment persisted in arguing that the Inuit were not receiving full value for their pelts compared to the price obtained at the fur auctions.
		Especially at Grise Fiord, the experimental nature of the project encouraged a symbiotic relationship between the police and the Inuit in which the success of one party was predicated on the success of the other.

	Grise Fiord
		Interest increased in the North American Arctic after the Second World War, given its natural resources and strategic importance - ballistic missiles from Asia would use the "great circle route" over the Pole to deliver their bombs.
		The Canadian government wanted to ensure sovereignty in the North, so in 1953 it relocated eight Inuit families from Inukjuak and resettled them 2,000 km / 1250 miles further north at Grise Fiord on Ellesmere Island (in what is now Nunavut).
		The name means "pig fiord" in Norwegian, and its Inuit name, Aujuittuq, means "place that never thaws".
