He represented the electoral district of Nunatsiaq in the House of Commons of Canada from 1988 to 1997. He sat in the house as a member of the Liberal Party of Canada. Following his retirement from federal politics, he also served a term in the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut after that territory was created in 1999. He ran as the New Democratic Party's candidate for his old riding, now renamed Nunavut, in the 2015 election, but was defeated by Liberal candidate Hunter Tootoo. Political careerFederal politicsAnawak was first elected in the 1988 election, and served as the Liberal Party's opposition critic for Northern Affairs in the 34th Canadian Parliament. Re-elected in the 1993 election, which was won by the Liberals, he was named parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development in the government of Jean Chrétien. Territorial politicsIn 1999 he was elected as a member of the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut for the seat of Rankin Inlet North. He was widely favoured to be the new territory's first Premier. However, he was perceived as the choice of the Chrétien government. The Assembly, which operates on a nonpartisan consensus model, selected Paul Okalik instead. Anawak did not run for re-election in 2004. He tried to return to the Assembly in the 2008 Nunavut general election, filing nomination papers to run in the electoral district of Akulliq. Elections Nunavut Chief Electoral Officer Sandy Kusugak rejected his candidacy, as he was not a full-time resident of Nunavut at the time his nomination papers were filed. Anawak took Elections Nunavut to court and managed to halt the election in that district pending his appeal,[1] but on November 6, the Nunavut Court of Justice threw out the election challenge.[2] Anawak ran again in the 2013 territorial election,[3] but finished fourth in the Iqaluit-Niaqunnguu riding.[4] Return to federal politicsIn 2015, Anawak announced his intent to take back his old riding, now renamed Nunavut, in the 2015 election. This time, he ran as the candidate of the New Democratic Party.[5] He came second in the race.[6] Popular cultureWhen the Canadian two-dollar coin was introduced, a number of nicknames were suggested. Jack Anawak proposed the name "Nanuq" [nanook, polar bear] in honour of Canada's Inuit people and their northern culture; however, this culturally meaningful proposal went largely unnoticed beside the simple, mass-appeal "Twonie/Toonie".[7] Electoral history{{Canadian election result/top|CA|2015|Nunavut (electoral district)|Nunavut|percent=yes|change=yes|expenditures=yes|prelim=no}}{{CANelec|CA|Liberal|Hunter Tootoo|5,619|47.11%|+18.49|–}}{{CANelec|CA|NDP|Jack Iyerak Anawak|3,171|26.58%|+7.14|–}}{{CANelec|CA|Conservative|Leona Aglukkaq|2,956|24.78%|-25.07|–}}{{CANelec|CA|Green|Spencer Rocchi|182|1.53%|-0.55|–}}{{Canadian election result/total|Total valid votes/Expense limit|11,928|100.0 | |$202,334.18}}{{Canadian election result/total|Total rejected ballots|95|–|–}}{{Canadian election result/total|Turnout|12,203|62.54%|–}}{{Canadian election result/total|Eligible voters|19,223}}{{CANelec/source|Source: Elections Canada[8][9]}}{{end}}{{Canadian federal election, 1993/Nunatsiaq}}{{Canadian federal election, 1988/Nunatsiaq}}References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.elections.nu.ca/apps/News/dspNews.aspx?ID=18|title=Akulliq election CANCELLED|publisher=Elections Nunavut|date=October 7, 2008|accessdate=2008-10-07|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/68odP9ia5?url=http://www.elections.nu.ca/apps/News/dspNews.aspx?ID=18|archivedate=June 30, 2012|df=}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/nunavut-judge-throws-out-anawak-election-challenge-1.717683|title=Nunavut judge throws out Anawak election challenge|publisher=CBC News|date=November 6, 2008|accessdate=April 18, 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nunatsiaqonline.ca/stories/article/65674jack_anawak_plans_run_in_oct._28_nunavut_election/|title=Jack Anawak seeks Iqaluit-Niaqunnguu seat in Nunavut election|publisher=Nunatsiaq Online|date=September 20, 2013|accessdate=April 18, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/nunavut-election-premier-loses-seat-ties-in-two-ridings-1.1515715|title=Nunavut election: Premier loses seat, ties in two ridings|publisher=CTV News|date=October 27, 2013|accessdate=April 18, 2016}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/jack-anawak-named-as-nunavut-s-ndp-candidate-1.3201188|title=Jack Anawak named as NDP's Nunavut Candidate|publisher=CBC News|date=August 23, 2015|accessdate=August 24, 2015}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/results-in-nunavut-election-2015-1.3276553|title=Hunter Tootoo celebrates Liberal win in Nunavut|publisher=CBC News|date=October 19, 2015|accessdate=April 18, 2016}} 7. ^https://openparliament.ca/hansards/1325/13/only/, Jack Iyerak Anawak on Two-Dollar Coin - Hansard April 26th, 1996, Retrieved March 30, 2011. 8. ^Elections Canada – Confirmed candidates for Nunavut, 30 September 2015 9. ^Elections Canada – Preliminary Election Expenses Limits for Candidates {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150815061116/http://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=can&dir=cand%2Fcanlim&document=index&lang=e |date=2015-08-15 }} External links
