Well, it is an obsession. I can't really help it. Having lived in just about every province, I feel I need to live in the arctic so I can tick off that box on my "to-do" list. With all of my stuff in boxes already, I sort of feel like renting a storage locker and taking off. 
Oh, yes. It is almost as far away as I can get (in Canada). I'm not sure if that has some sort of deeper meaning of not. Although I think part of the charm is moving to a place that few people have seen. I think it would be a fun challenge to purchase a years worth of food in advance and wait for it to arrive on a barge. Do you have any idea how many rolls of toilet paper you would need? I can think of some Nunavut bloggers who know that answer. Imagine living without a cell phone and commuting to work on a skidoo or ATV. I've lived in some teeny tiny hamlets, but there has always been the option of driving down the road to the "big city." But with no 'big city' to escape to, you'd be forced to really engage in the community. And living on the ocean would be great.
Ahhh...
