Canadian North Inc. is a wholly Inuit-owned airline headquartered in Kanata, Ontario,[5] Canada. It operates scheduled passenger services to communities in the Northwest Territories, Nunavik and Nunavut. Southern gateways include Edmonton, Montreal and Ottawa. In 2019 it completed a merger with First Air, after which the name Canadian North was kept, but First Air red and white livery was adopted by the new entity. It is one of the few commercial airlines in the world to still fly the Boeing 737-200 on regular scheduled flights. Some of its aircraft are in a combi configuration, with a part of the cabin dedicated to cargo and the other carrying passengers (Photo Wikimedia Commons / Johnnyw3)
