IQALUIT, Nunavut — ***** filled the sky over the construction site for Iqaluit’s new airport terminal over the weekend, but officials don’t believe the damage from the **** is severe.

John Hawkins, the airport’s director of operations, says in an email that the **** on Saturday evening appears to have been contained to roofing materials.

Hawkins says there were no ********.

The airport is owned by the Nunavut government and the new terminal is part of a number of improvement projects that also include a rehabilitation of the existing runway and construction of new taxiways.

The improvements are being made as part of a deal with a private company, Arctic Infrastructure Partners, which the Nunavut government says will operate and maintain the airport for the next three decades.

The government says the new terminal will have a central concourse with ample space for displaying Inuit art, as well as a foundation system that’s resistant to cracks caused by permafrost.
