This is such a typical white (Kabloona) stereotype. As an inuk who works hard for what he's got, I don't drink, i don't smoke up i raise my children as good as if not better than my parents raised me. Idiots like you are a cancer to our people, don't forget kabloonaks introduced us to christianity and the fathers (the so called worker of god who sexually and physically abused many innocent inuit children and fu&*ed up their future). I have met alot of ignorant kabloonaks but you take the cake! People like you only come to Nunavut only to pay off bills, if you were still down south (where you belong) you would still be in debt. You even say so in your blog "i am paying off my bills" So don't be so judgemental about us and our way of life, when it was your forefathers who raided or land and our way of life and told us that it was wrong. When are you people going to realize it was you who Fu*&ed up our people? This is the white way we were told that was better. Who introduced us to Booze to rape our inuit women? Who introduced us to drugs to make us dependant so the white man can come in and say we'll save you! Well no thanks lady!

You might want to add Janet Kigusiuq (1926-2005) as well as Victoria Mamnguqsualuk (b. 1930) to the list of Baker Lake artists.
They are both daughters of Jessie Oonark.
See e.g. the already linked page of Spirit Wrestler Gallery.

Since there are multiple Baker Lakes (California and Washington states both have notable Baker Lakes), and since this article already exists, I'm going to very strongly suggest that the content currently on the page Baker Lake be merged in here and a disambiguation page be put in its place.

This article needs cleaning up. It seems that editors including User:134.117.141.66 and User:Blitzwerk want to write a nice chatty piece about the community of Baker Lake, rather than an encyclopaedic article. Jezhotwells ( talk) 03:12, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
Baker Lake is an important community for Inuit art, but when I ( Esoltys) provide a reference to the commercial gallery where I work it is removed by CambridgeBayWeather as "spam". At the moment our gallery is displaying over 150 pieces of artwork from Baker Lake including every artist mentioned in the article. With numerous photos of each piece and accompanying artist biographies our site is a reference for readers wanting to learn more about Baker Lake art. Just because information is provided by a commercial source does not make it "spam". Esoltys ( talk) 22:48, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Baker Lake, Nunavut →
Baker Lake — Currently a disambiguation. Within Nunavut the hamlet is the main usage rather than
Baker Lake (Nunavut). There are three lakes of the same name in the US,
Baker Lake (California),
Baker Lake (Maine) and
Baker Lake (Washington). Having looked through, and recognising that it is not a definitive answer,
Google.com,
Google.ca,
Google.co.uk (
pages from the UK) and
Google.co.au (
pages from Australia) that the main usage is the community in Canada with either
Baker Lake (Washington) or
Baker Lake (Western Australia). Therefore Baker Lake should move to
Baker Lake (disambiguation) and
Baker Lake, Nunavut to
Baker Lake. Relisted.

Is this the same spot that has a big black out rectangle on google satellite maps ?--— ⦿⨦⨀Tumadoireacht Talk/ Stalk 13:27, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
I notice that the transliteration from Inuktitut to English has an apostrophe in it: Qamani'tuaq. However, the spelling in Inuktitut syllabics has a small "ta" in that place, indicating another "t". I know that transliteration is tricky between Inuktitut and English but would that not then be transliterated as "Qamanittuaq"? There might be a rule of transliteration I am not aware but everywhere else I have seen the superscript letters indicate a sound without a following vowel and I haven't seen an apostrophe in any other transliterated word or name. Happy to be corrected, though. 199.212.215.11 ( talk) 16:52, 30 October 2017 (UTC)
