Almost a Nunavummiut

I finally received my Nunavut Health Card in the mail, so starting February 1, 2009 I will officially be part of the Nunavut system and I can throw out my old OHIP card. Changing all of my addresses has proven to be a bit of a challenge. The woman I spoke to on the phone from Revenue Canada laughed when I told her that my street name was the Road to Nowhere and the person from the National Student Loan Centre pronounced Iqaluit as Ick-wa-lit even though I has just said it properly (I let that slide because I just didn't have it in me to explain anymore). The last change is my driver's license which I'll be doing this week....three cheers for a new photo! =)

New photos don't necessarily mean good. At least it's more likely to be good than a passport photo.

What is the correct pronunciation for Iqaluit?
