Support for Canadian Arctic university grows

The idea of a university in the Canadian North is gaining more support as an increasing number of academics and those living in the region say that there is a strong need for a permanent university to be established in the region so students and researcher can have a dedicated place to study. Canada is the sole Arctic nation that doesn’t have a permanent university in the region. Canadian residents living in the north have to head to southern Canada if they want to continue their studies past high school.
