Answer 1

The correct answer should be C. A self-governing territory would allow the Intuits to better govern in accordance with their culture and beliefs

Inuits have different and more traditional lifestyles than contemporary Canadians. A large part of their culture for example consists of fishing and this includes even fish that is banned from fishing in the current state of things. Among others there was also whaling or seal hunting. They would need to have their own self governing body of land so that they could protect their cultural beliefs.
