Food, music, clothing and community have been integral to how people in the N.W.T. and Yukon celebrated National Indigenous Peoples Day.
The North Slave Métis Alliance hosted its annual fish fry and stage show at Somba K'e Civic Plaza in Yellowknife. Volunteers served up white fish from Great Slave Lake alongside bannock, beans, corn and dessert, while a variety of different performers took to the waterfront amphitheatre.
There was also a full schedule of events to mark the day at the Kwanlin Dün Cultural Centre in Whitehorse, including the Daghaalhaan K'e Dancers, a jigging contest and a bannock bake-off.
