Kangiqsualujjuaq-1999
The Inuit community of Kangiqsualujjuaq, grieved after 9 died in Quebec's worst avalanche. Four adults and five children died in the tragedy after tonnes of snow came cascading down the sheer face of a 365-metre-high cliff at 1:30 am on January 1, knocking out a wall and swamping those inside the gymnasium where the New Year's Eve party was being held. Some of the 25 injured were in critical condition and 10 other buildings were evacuated. The school was located too close to the hill against safety regulations. Although human error has been noted as a possible cause, due to disregard of certain warnings, blame has not been placed.
