KINNGAIT, NUNAVUT - The Nunavut government is ending a weeklong state of emergency in Kinngait as water services resume in the hamlet.

The territory declared the state of emergency last Wednesday saying an electrical issue at the community's water pumphouse was limiting its ability to distribute treated water.
