Canadian Coast Guard’s wraps up season at Arctic Response Station in Rankin Inlet

The Canadian Coast Guard wrapped up its season at the Arctic Marine Response Station (AMRS) in Rankin Inlet, Nunavut on Wednesday. Rankin Inlet is an Inuit community of approximately 2,800 people on the western coast of Hudson Bay. It’s the second largest community in the territory of Nunavut and during the open water season in northern Canada, the coast guard maintains a continuous presence. The Arctic Marine Response Station superseded the Inshore Rescue Boat North station in 2018. In addition to search and rescues, the coast guard also conducted two training exercises during this year’s operations.
