More stress on the locals, certainly. Not a lot of impact for tourists who are flying in.
I recommend both snorkeling with belugas and canoeing with belugas (in the summer, that is).
Dogsledding is great both winter and summer (when it's on wheels).
For those who want to "go north" but think the far north will be a little too adventurous, Churchill is a great option.
Available on Air Miles; AP is new to me and I will check out more on that.
