- THE FOUNDING SERIES, AND THE ONE THE 2025 PLATE IS ANSWERING. Two things make it worth authoring rather than leaving to L4: it is the reason the trade-mark licence exists (the 1999-2012 use was, per the 2024 reporting, "under a copyright agreement with the Northwest Territories"), and its terminal letter makes it the only Nunavut serial shape that is unambiguous against both later series. Everything about it is secondary.
