Merry Christmas | Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami

Merry Christmas | Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami: "Merry Christmas! There I said it!. Let me try that again. Merry Christmas!-I like the sound of that greeting. Its seems to me not so long ago you could hear that greeting on the radio; on T.V.; in Stores; in Schools and Communities all across Canada.
