Forty-three average Canadians began making their way to Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug (KI) on June 17 to experience life on the remote fly-in community for a week. The visitors had accepted the public invitation by a group of KI youth, who began the initiative and originally had a goal of having 25 Canadians come into the community. One of the youth, Justin Beardy, said he is humbled by the response of so many Canadians wanting to visit his home community. “I didn’t think this was going to blow up like this,” the 28-year-old said. “It totally snowballed into this really huge event. I thought it was going to be a small thing so this is totally exceeding my expectations.”
