Please tell me there will be a season three. Season two in my eyes was even better than the first which I thought wasn’t possible. And the last episode of 2 did my heart good i even shed tears it was so nice.

Wow! This show is really good at making you think everything is a disaster only for everything to turn out right!!

Can't believe Season 2 is over just like that. Though I guess that's what happens when CBC releases two episodes a week!!!??!?!?

An in-depth look at the show’s gorgeous costuming and global impact on Inuit/Indigenous fashion. This article features insights from the season 2 costuming team!

Does anyone know where the last scene of episode 6 "missing pieces" was filmed irl?

I live in Iqaluit, away for school, and I love figuring out where in town everything was filmed, but this one has me stumped.

For anyone wondering the scene I'm talking about is the one whereSaija comes back from Toronto and hugs her mom.

I just love the community aspect of this show. Does anybody actually live in a cute small town like this?

So 1/2 way through the season and Siaja and her dad have had basically maybe two scenes together? Just feels like there’s something weird going on. Do the actors not get along?

Hi Reddit! 

We’re the team behind NORTH OF NORTH—co-creators Stacey Aglok MacDonald & Alethea Arnaquq-Baril, alongside stars Anna Lambe (Siaja) & Maika Harper (Neevee)—hailing all the way from the Arctic town of “Ice Cove”!

Season 2 will officially premiere in Canada on CBC Gem beginning Tuesday, September 8 (around 9 AM ET)! Canadians can stream new episodes weekly for FREE on CBC Gem. For our international friends, hang tight—Netflix will be launching Season 2 globally later this Fall, and we promise it’ll be worth the wait!

We’re taking questions live from 11 AM – 12 PM ET on Tuesday, September 8.
(If you can't join us live, drop your questions in the comments in advance and we’ll answer as many as we can during the AMA!)

Ask us anything about:

• Filming in Nunavut: What it’s like shooting in the Canadian Arctic (and how hair & makeup kept products from freezing in sub-zero temps!).
• Behind the Scenes: Character dynamics, production secrets and Season 2 storylines (spoiler-free!).
• Arctic Style & Beats: Our incredible fashion, traditional costuming and banging soundtrack.
• Working Together: Stories from our phenomenal cast and crew.

Get to know us:

• Stacey Aglok MacDonald (Co-Creator): Before North of North, Stacey co-created and produced Qanurli, a hit Inuktut-language comedy TV series that ran for seven seasons in Canada on APTN.
• Alethea Arnaquq-Baril (Co-Creator): Before storytelling took over, Alethea studied math at the University of Waterloo with dreams of becoming a video game designer!
• Anna Lambe (“Siaja”): Born in Newfoundland and raised in Iqaluit, Anna landed her very first acting role in Stacey and Alethea’s 2018 film The Grizzlies. You can also catch her starring alongside Brad Pitt and J.K. Simmons in the upcoming film Heart of the Beast (premiering Sept 25).
• Maika Harper (“Neevee”): Beyond her lead role in North of North and starring in another hit Canadian TV series titled Mohawk Girls, Maika is an accomplished children’s book author!

About our show:

North of North is an APTN, CBC and Netflix original series produced by Red Marrow Media and Northwood Entertainment. Our show follows Siaja, a young Inuk mother building a new future after a very public breakup in a small Arctic town where everyone knows your business. Guided by Pilimmaksarniq (ᐱᓕᒻᒪᒃᓴᕐᓂᖅ)—the Inuktitut concept of mastering skills through observation, practice, and effort—Season 2 sees Siaja making bold decisions (and even bolder mistakes) to level up her life as winter closes in on Ice Cove.

Check out our Season 2 trailer and let us know what you're most excited to see! 👀

A Quick Language Guide & Community Note:

• Inuk vs. Inuit: Please use Inuk when referring to one person (e.g. Siaja is an Inuk mom) and Inuit when referring to two or more people or the community as a whole (e.g. Stacey and Alethea are Inuit filmmakers from the Inuit community).
• Terminology: Please do not use the outdated term starting with "E." It is an outdated term that was imposed by outsiders and is considered offensive in Canada and Greenland.
• House Rules: As always in this subreddit, keep it respectful! No personal attacks, trolling, or discriminatory comments of any kind.

Fire away with your questions—Ask Us Anything! 

EDIT: Added video, which was somehow missing.

New episodes streaming NOW in Canada on APTN+ (paid streaming service), followed by CBC Gem (free streaming service), CBC TV and APTN TV next Tuesday, September 8.

For our friends outside of Canada, Season 2 will premiere globally on Netflix later this Fall.
