Canada Sealift room (food storage room). The Melanson family—Peter, 30, Pauline, 34, Joseph, 11, Jacob, 9, and Shane, 6, in the kitchen/dining area of their home. They live one street off “The Road To Nowhere,” on a hill overlooking the town of Iqaluit in Canada’s northeastern territory of Nunavut, just below the Arctic Circle. One perk that the Melansons can take advantage of that isn’t available to everyone in Nunavut is the sealift—bulk buying of staple foods to bring down the high price of food to this remote area. It comes in via ship from Canada’s southern provinces. The image is part of a collection of images and documentation for Hungry Planet 2, a continuation of work done after publication of the book project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, by Peter Menzel & Faith D'Aluisio.
