My love of geography has allowed me to be associated with two organizations I deeply admire for more than 25 years, The Royal Canadian Geographical Society and National Geographic Society. I am humbled that these two esteemed organizations will form the Alex Trebek Council to help support efforts to increase understanding of Canada’s many geographic wonders.” —Alex Trebek, RCGS Honorary

Perched sea caves, situated approximately 20 m above the modern level of Georgian Bay, are often found along the Niagara Escarpment. These were formed at lake level by the undercutting of cliffs by waves, much like what we see today at the popular tourist destination known as 'the grotto'.

Long before European explorers arrived, Inuit were familiar with the region and likely knew of the strait, though it wasn't part of regular routes due to its challenging conditions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/22ab3e57-3e9f-4f37-9c26-ef7b8cbcae0f/40_Whale.JPG Issue #3 This Quarter at Trebek: TREBEK TRACKS THE ICE A Bowhead whale spotted between Pond Inlet and Gjoa Haven gracefully dips its tail into the frigid Arctic waters. The history of exploration is intertwined with that of commercial whaling, which almost led to the extinction of whales. Inuit knowledge of hunting comes from a very different mindset – that of appreciation and of using all parts of the whale, drawing upon traditions that are thousands of years old. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/309097a1-9b2a-4e8a-8062-ad6ed03fdd53/41_Bellot+Straight.JPG Issue #3 This Quarter at Trebek: TREBEK TRACKS THE ICE Sailing through the narrow and treacherous waters of Bellot Strait, a key but challenging passage in the Northwest Passage. Bellot Strait, located at the northern tip of the Boothia Peninsula, is known for its strong currents, unpredictable ice conditions, and narrow width, making it a daring route for adventurers and explorers alike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/3ed55649-3169-4efa-8584-3b16f95f01a9/43.jpg Issue #3 This Quarter at Trebek: TREBEK TRACKS THE ICE Serene and ethereal, floating ice in Regent Inlet reflects the tranquil yet harsh Arctic environment. These ice formations, sculpted by nature, drift silently in the frigid waters, embodying the delicate balance of the polar ecosystem. Ice plays such a primary role in exploration narratives, often portrayed as an enemy to be conquered. It has always had—and continues to have—a crucial role in the life of Inuit today, as Sheila Watt Cloutier advocates when she speaks about Inuit rights to the cold. Climate change is affecting the polar regions at twice the rate as in the rest of the world, yet is caused by activities in the south. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/45bdc306-b7d7-48b9-bd07-fbdd8ace6564/44.JPG Issue #3 This Quarter at Trebek: TREBEK TRACKS THE ICE Sailing through the serene waters of Regent Inlet on a calm, sunny day, the ship's prow glides effortlessly through the gentle waves.

The rugged cliffs of Bellot Strait rise dramatically from the icy waters, creating a breathtaking and formidable landscape. Long before European explorers arrived, Inuit were familiar with the region and likely knew of the strait, though it wasn't part of regular routes due to its challenging conditions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/22ab3e57-3e9f-4f37-9c26-ef7b8cbcae0f/40_Whale.JPG FRENCH: Issue #3 Ce Trimestre chez Trebek: TREBEK SURVEILLE LA GLACE A Bowhead whale spotted between Pond Inlet and Gjoa Haven gracefully dips its tail into the frigid Arctic waters. The history of exploration is intertwined with that of commercial whaling, which almost led to the extinction of whales. Inuit knowledge of hunting comes from a very different mindset – that of appreciation and of using all parts of the whale, drawing upon traditions that are thousands of years old. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/309097a1-9b2a-4e8a-8062-ad6ed03fdd53/41_Bellot+Straight.JPG FRENCH: Issue #3 Ce Trimestre chez Trebek: TREBEK SURVEILLE LA GLACE Sailing through the narrow and treacherous waters of Bellot Strait, a key but challenging passage in the Northwest Passage. Bellot Strait, located at the northern tip of the Boothia Peninsula, is known for its strong currents, unpredictable ice conditions, and narrow width, making it a daring route for adventurers and explorers alike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/3ed55649-3169-4efa-8584-3b16f95f01a9/43.jpg FRENCH: Issue #3 Ce Trimestre chez Trebek: TREBEK SURVEILLE LA GLACE Serene and ethereal, floating ice in Regent Inlet reflects the tranquil yet harsh Arctic environment. These ice formations, sculpted by nature, drift silently in the frigid waters, embodying the delicate balance of the polar ecosystem. Ice plays such a primary role in exploration narratives, often portrayed as an enemy to be conquered. It has always had—and continues to have—a crucial role in the life of Inuit today, as Sheila Watt Cloutier advocates when she speaks about Inuit rights to the cold. Climate change is affecting the polar regions at twice the rate as in the rest of the world, yet is caused by activities in the south. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/45bdc306-b7d7-48b9-bd07-fbdd8ace6564/44.JPG FRENCH: Issue #3 Ce Trimestre chez Trebek: TREBEK SURVEILLE LA GLACE Sailing through the serene waters of Regent Inlet on a calm, sunny day, the ship's prow glides effortlessly through the gentle waves. The clear skies and tranquil sea highlight the beauty and peacefulness of the northern wilderness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/29d3c54f-e116-4bcd-9b28-049e9e2002f8/46.JPG FRENCH: Issue #3 Ce Trimestre chez Trebek: TREBEK SURVEILLE LA GLACE Flying the white 'O' flag with a circular cutout opens a window to the sky and the horizon. It is a flag without a nation, symbolising a kind of exploration that prioritises the interconnection between people and place, not the exploitation of resources to be discovered. Throughout the voyage, Okalik and Jessica carried out a series of ephemeral, anti-heroic actions to question dominant exploration narratives and to signal a journey based on a different value system. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60479b5e02cc1845fb3601a1/87d07b66-702f-4b12-83b2-26987553970a/55+%281%29.jpeg FRENCH: Issue #3 Ce Trimestre chez Trebek: TREBEK SURVEILLE LA GLACE They were greeted by a stunning midnight sunset as they arrived in Gjoa Haven.
