Port Burwell and Killiniq[edit]

Concern. Port Burwell and Killiniq are two separate communities but are being used interchangeably here. It is inaccurate and confusing: white folks writing about indigenous history should validate their information with the appropriate organizations - Nunavik (Quebec, Canada) and Nunatsiavut (Labrador, Canada) Jewford (talk) 20:35, 1 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you read the article you will see it says "sometimes referred to" not that it is the same place. Look at this. It clearly shows that Killiniq and Port Burwell are separate places on Killiniq Island. That also shows Killiniq Island is part of Nunavut not Nunatsiavut. Wikipedia works on sources not on what you or I think. Do you have sources showing that the island has been transferred to Nunatsiavut. By the way the Canadian Encyclopedia also says it's in Nunavut. Except for the small portion in the southeast. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 05:02, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
