| I'm going to make a bold prediction here: Conservative win. After the Harper government signed a huge land claim deal with the Northern Inuit, in which they get a new national park, new resource rights, administrative controls and millions of dollars invested, don't be surprised if this riding trends towards the CPC, especially if they run a strong First Nations candidate. The Inuit are even thinking of naming a small island after Harper... |

| The Conservatives did surprisingly strong here, against a tremendously popular incumbent. If Aglukark runs here again or the CPC nominates another strong candidate the CPC has a good chance in this riding. This is especially true since the incumbent has decided not to run again. |

| Races in the north are less about party, and more about personality. Which candidate is the most popular. When that is factored in, you start to see more and more rationale for a Liberal win, not because it is popular as a party, but because all of the strong candidates are falling over themselves to win the Liberal Nomination. |

| I'll be interested to see what happens here. There's no Liberal Incumbent and Jack Layton's just finished a trip up north. With such a small population a lot will depend on who runs. |

| Jack Layton spent much time in the Artic speaking about the issues affecting the Artic communities: climate change, indigenous rigths and artic sovereignty. NDP has been increasing its share election after election, including in Nunavut. With the incumbent Liberal MP not contesting this election, I think there is a strong and credible chance for the next MP of Nunavut belonging to the NDP. |

Probably a Liberal hold but i suppose anythings possible with only about 9000 total votes last election. On another note the Marijuana party got 8% of the votes here. |

| This is not as safe a Liberal riding as some think since it has gone NDP and Conservative before, but the Liberals certainly having an edge, so unless the Liberals nominated a lousy candidate and either the Tories or NDP nominate a really strong one, this should stay Liberal, although the large margins Nancy Karetek-Lindell normally took probably will happen in the election after once the Liberal MP has the incumbent advantage, not in the upcoming election. |

| I know this may sound daft, but given the result last time, I wouldn't count the Conservatives out in Nunavut, especially if Aglukark ran again. Granted, such Toryism might have more kinship with Danny Williams than Stephen Harper--but, still... |

| This seat will go Liberal again, it has been that way for a long time and I don't see it changing this time. |

| The real election is Liberal nomination meeting. Rankin Inlet mayor Lorne Kusugak versus Paul Okalik's former chief of staff and Harvard grad Kirt Ejesiak. I don't know who will win that, but it's old guard vs. new guard. |
