Kattimannap Qurlua

Kattimannap Qurlua is a waterfall in Nunavut on the Hood River, where the river plunges nearly 60 metres through Wilberforce Gorge. It stands out as one of the few major waterfalls on the North American mainland north of the Arctic Circle. The falls were once called Wilberforce Falls, a name honoring English politician William Wilberforce, who was associated with the movement to abolish the slave trade. In 2020, the waterfall was renamed Kattimannap Qurlua.
