New show alert! I got a chance to work on North of North way back in 2023 (during a difficult time in life — namely, the loss of my father). And let me tell ya — I remain grateful for the laughs, community, creative kinship, and support that came with forging stories for Siaja and friends. It was a good place to inhabit when real life got too hard.

This series is funny and deeply heartfelt, and creators Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril have done an incredible job in bringing this hilarious world to life.

From the CBC Gem site:

“A young Inuk woman wants to build a new future for herself after a spontaneous and extremely public exit from her marriage. It won’t be easy in a small Arctic town where everybody knows your business.”

Check it out! The first two episodes drop January 7th on CBC and CBC Gem, and then releases weekly after that.
