Established in 1978, the KRG is governed by the Kativik Regional Government Act and operates under the authority of the Kativik Regional Council, a 16-member body elected by the residents of Nunavik. The KRG's primary responsibilities include education, health and social services, public safety, infrastructure, and economic development. It also plays a key role in preserving the Inuit culture and language. The KRG's unique mandate and responsibilities stem from the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement (JBNQA), a landmark agreement signed in 1975 between the Inuit of Nunavik, the Cree of Eeyou Istchee, the government of Quebec, and the government of Canada. The JBNQA recognized the Inuit's right to self-government and established the KRG as the primary vehicle for exercising that right.[/description][ps]Education, health and social services, public safety, infrastructure, and economic development.[/ps]
