An Igloolik teen who went missing Saturday has died, it was confirmed in the legislative assembly Wednesday.

A statement from the family of 19-year-old Shawn Kukkik was read out by Aggu MLA Joanna Quassa. In it, the family thanked MLAs for thinking of them during a difficult time in their lives.

Quassa’s riding includes Igloolik and she is Kukkik’s aunt.

Kukkik was last seen walking behind the high school and up the hill toward the hamlet’s inuksuk. The Canadian Rangers joined the search for him on Monday.

The circumstances of his death have not been released.

Amittuq MLA Joelie Kaernerk also spoke about Kukkik’s death in the assembly. He offered his condolences to the family and appreciation to those who helped with the search.

“I know it’s a very difficult situation, especially in the community where this kind of situation occurs,” he said of mental health struggles endured by some people, including Kukkik.

“It has an impact on our lives, especially when it has to do with mental health issues.” he said.
