## About this plate

PERIOD: the return was ANNOUNCED with a date and ISSUED without one. What is well sourced is the announcement, Minister David Akeeagok told the Legislative Assembly on 2024-11-05 that the bear plate was returning as part of Nunavut's 25th-anniversary programme, that the project began early in 2024 and was expected to be complete in December 2024, and that "we signed an agreement with the Government of the Northwest Territories allowing us to create our own bear-shaped plate without infringing any trademark legalities". The 2024 announcement is the corroborating context and is NOT used as the start year, announcing is not issuing, and this programme has been burned by that conflation before. FORMAT: the reported serial is six digits in two groups of three, i.e. the SAME grammar as the rectangular series it replaces. If that is right, the 2025 change is a DESIGN change on an unchanged format, the mirror image of British Columbia's 2025 change, which is a format change on an unchanged design.

## Separators

THE GAP HOLDS AN INUKSUK. The reported design places an inuksuk between the two three-digit groups.
