"The Inuit of Labrador and the federal government have signed a deal that will see the Inuit use their traditional knowledge to develop a marine-management plan..."

Wait, what?!

The Inuit will use "their traditional knowledge"?

Huh?

I thought that Justin Trudeau promised that his government would be a science based government, would be an evidence based government.

How does Justin Trudeau square that promise with his now embracing the "traditional knowledge" that the Inuit have been passing down in stories and beliefs and legends and narratives over the generations?

And how well does the Inuit "traditional knowledge" deal with things like Russian nuclear submarines and massive Chinese diesel freighters and Norwegian and Danish challenge to the UN over international boundary law?

Were the Inuit ancestors and story-tellers mastering those subjects well several generations ago?
