#FIRSTLOOK: “NORTH OF NORTH” SEASON 2 RETURNS AND ON “NETFLIX IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD”

Today, North of North returns for Season 2, making its global premiere on Netflix and inviting audiences around the world to discover more of Nunavut’s breathtaking Arctic landscapes and close-knit communities. And this season, things even take a little detour to Toronto. With this update on the Netflix in Your Neighbourhood and Netflix chez vous websites, fans can now discover the latest filming locations behind their favourite North of North scenes.

As winter closes in on Ice Cove in Season 2, young Inuk mother Siaja (Anna Lambe) is still making bold decisions and even bolder mistakes in her effort to level up her life and prove she’s ready to take charge.

The season takes us back to Iqaluit, Apex and new territory with the Qikiqtaaluk Region, alongside select scenes filmed in Toronto. From sweeping tundra landscapes to community gathering spaces and local businesses, Season 2 offers another glimpse into the real places that bring the fictional community of Ice Cove to life.

In Iqaluit, viewers may recognize the Unikkaarvik Visitor Centre, which returns as the Community Centre where Siaja works, and the Yellow Submarine, an inactive terminal at the local airport which takes on several roles throughout the season, including a health centre, jail and airport. The city’s dramatic natural surroundings in the Qikiqtaaluk Region are also featured prominently, with Sylvia Grinnell Territorial Park providing the backdrop for snowmobile rides and a game of hide-and-seek. Over in Apex, Rotary Club Day Park becomes the site of Alistair’s new cabin, while the Abe Okpik Community Hall returns as the Elders Hall. And in Toronto, the DoubleTree by Hilton Toronto Downtown and The Vatican Gift Shop appear in Episode 6, as Siaja ventures beyond Ice Cove for a night out.
