The Legacy of Hope Foundation and Roots and Hoots Presents - A Federal Indian Day School Series Podcast with Survivor, Navalik Tologanak (Ottawa, ON) – November 25, 2025 – The Legacy of Hope Foundation (LHF) is pleased to announce the release of the sixth episode in our 8-part series on the Federal Indian Day School System, featuring Navalik Tologanak. Navalik, originally from Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, speaks with host Gordon about the unique experiences of Inuit students within the colonial education system and how Day School ultimately conditioned her not to be afraid of white people. Navalik attended Day School in Cambridge Bay. Growing up during the Cold War era, she recalls her father being recruited by the RCMP to work on the Distant Early Warning (DEW) Line because he was fluent in both English and Inuktitut. Navalik shares vivid memories from her school years, including travelling by dog sled, being snowed in during winter storms, and remaining in touch with one of her teachers. A natural storyteller, Navalik has spent nearly 30 years as a journalist and is currently writing a book about her hometown of Cambridge Bay.
