Qikiqtarjuaq ("big island") (formerly known as Broughton Island until 1 November 1998), is an island in Nunavut, Canada, off Baffin Island in Davis Strait, and a part of Qikiqtaaluk Region. The island is known for Arctic wildlife, whale watching and as the northern access point for Auyuittuq National Park (see also Pangnirtung). As of the 2006 census the population was 473, a decrease of 8.9% from the 2001 census.[3] Qikiqtarjuaq annually hosts the "Suicide Prevention Walk". Local participants walk a total distance of 60 km across the tundra from an old whaler's station called "Kivitu". The walk is completed in 2 and a half days and is meant to promote hope among the community. Broughton Island was the home of FOX-5, a Distant Early Warning Line and now a North Warning System site.
