The coordinator will follow up, intervene and put in place the necessary measures.

 

Carrefour Nunavut wishes to inform you that non-compliance with the code of conduct contained in the Code of Life may have consequences. The camp chose to apply, depending on the severity of the case, with a trial period between each stage, the procedure listed above.
