Qview is a media-streaming platform that enables creators to effectively deliver video into satellite dependent communities without losing copyright control or ownership.

Qview is split into 2 parts named QvCentral (QvC) and QvLocal (QvL).

QvC is hosted in Ottawa and provides southerners with easy access to northern content while providing northerners with a single repository optimized for delivery over all backbone types.

QvL is a community-based server designed specifically for satellite communities. The purpose of QvL is to dramatically reduce backbone congestion and provide a better experience for the viewer at a much lower (or zero) usage consumption.

SSi Canada is proud to be involved with The Inuit Broadcasting Corporation in a pilot project aimed at bringing culturally relevant content to Canadians.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you are interested in having your own streaming channel.

Qamutiq

For thousands of years Inuit has used the Qamutiq in the north as a means of transportation. Back them it could have been made from frozen fish and freezing ice under to make it run smooth and fast. Other things such as bone and skins, driftwood and whatever would have been used as well. In this episode we will watch a more modern way a sled would be made. These days’ ropes are used rather than animal products. Lumber is used as well as plastic sheets for the bottom. We will watch Jerry Ell make a Qamutiq for a child to slide and play with.
