1. Film preamble reads as: "A member applying for Northern Service must undergo a strict Medical examination, have a keen desire for Northern service, a quest for adventure which will enable him to endure personal discomfort or loneliness, and be prepared to remain in the North for a minimum period of three years. In addition to regular service work, a Northern man must, through actual experience, become proficient in handling dogs, canoes and larger boats which demand some knowledge of seamanship.The first year of his Northern Service is spent learning the work relative to the North and the habits and characteristics of the natives (Indigenous Peoples)."~2. Loucheux is an older dialect of the Gwich'in language and is considered a derogatory term meaning "squinters".
