A majority of the population speaks Kalaallisut (West Greenlandic), which has led to its status as the official "Greenlandic" language. Hunting and fishing have always been an important aspect of the Greenland Inuit culture, and most Greenlanders still hunt at least part-time to supplement their diet. Greenlandic social anthropologist Aviaja Egede Lynge has stated: "We have always been taught that we were one of the best colonies in the world. And why should we have a reason to ask questions about 250 years of colonial presence?"111 Today, Greenland has achieved greater self-determination with the home rule, however, Greenlanders still feel ruled by Denmark. Despite the fact that the members of the home rule government are native Greenlanders, most leading positions are still in the hands of the Danish population who have strong influences on decision-making processes.
