Canadian Arctic The Canadian High Arctic is massive, stretching across the Northwest Territories, Yukon and Nunavut. Canada has more land mass in the Arctic region than any other country. While the population base is relatively small, the Canadian Arctic is rich in Inuit culture, especially in Nunavut. Visitors are often amazed upon realizing there are 35,563 islands in the remote Canadian Arctic Archipelago, of which Baffin Island, the fifth-largest island in the world, is just one. Remote, austere and rugged, the Canadian High Arctic beckons to those who long to navigate its icy channels, following in the footsteps of legendary explorers who braved the unknown to seek the fabled sea route to Asia.
