Kivalliq also known as Kivallirmiutut Caribou Eskimo or formerly as Keewatin is a Canadian dialect of the Inuit language spoken along the northwestern shores of Hudson Bay in Nunavut. The governments of Nunavut and the Northwest Territories generally consider it to be a dialect of Inuktitut due to its location in Nunavut but linguists generally classify it as a dialect of Inuvialuk. However Inuktitut and Inuvialuk form a dialect continuum with few sharp boundaries.
