New and 5x expanded by Starzoner ( talk). Self-nominated at 03:50, 2 May 2020 (UTC).
Expansion was 5X and recent enough, sources check out, no close paraphrasing or other plagiarism. The hooks are interesting, especially ALT 1. Presuming Nunavut does not have any confirmed cases when this article runs, I prefer ALT 1 to the original hook.--

I am aware of 2020 Singapore circuit breaker measures. The lead said "Nunavut's Chief Medical Officer Michael Patterson announced on November 16 that a territory-wide "circuit-breaker" would take effect...". The thing is that Patterson did no such thing. He never used the words circuit breaker. Premier Savikataaq did say circuit breaker in the sentence: "Think of it as [a] circuit breaker, a chance to reset." He didn't say that the government was implementing a circuit breaker but that the restrictions are like one. Having circuit breaker in the lead without clarifying what it means for the reader may be confusing. Also it isn't encyclopaedic and we should not be using the slang of the day. By the way the term is not used in Nunavut other than the one off from the premier. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 05:41, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
Since Nunavut now has confirmed cases of COVID-19 for around a month and the total case numbers have become fairly large and still increasing rapidly, I think we should create a template titled Template:COVID-19 pandemic data/Canada/Nunavut medical cases chart.

Any idea why the Nunavut government website only lists one death when the media has recorded two? CaffeinAddict ( talk) 04:14, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
