The export of specific Inuit sculpture from Canada to other parts of the globe like the United States does have some restrictions. In order to lessen harvesting of marine animals such as whales and walruses, the United States Congress passed the Marine Mammal Protection Act in 1972. It was later modified in 1981 and a unique section (101) of the act was developed to exclude Eskimo Inuit and other aboriginals living in the state of Alaska. Section 101 allowed Alaskan Natives to continue their traditions of hunting marine mammals for food and utilizing parts of such animals as raw supplies in the making of clothing, crafts and artwork.

The act tends to make it illegal for American citizens to import any ivory or whalebone from outdoors the United States. Therefore, American citizens would not be permitted to buy any artwork containing ivory or whalebone from Canada and have it brought or shipped back to the United States. Nevertheless, the act as it stands permits American citizens to acquire similar artwork from Alaska considering that it is portion of the United States. The export of such artwork created from marine mammals from the United States to Canada is not allowed.

Inuit sculpture containing whalebone, walrus or narwal tusks (both deemed ivory) are restricted from import and export. Even so, Inuit sculpture containing caribou antler is permitted considering that caribou is not a marine mammal and for that reason does not fall below this act.

Exporting Inuit sculpture containing whalebone or ivory from Canada to other international destinations will rely on each particular country as every has its own specific regulations. Fines or penalties for importing or exporting illegal items can be quite severe.

Thankfully, other forms of Inuit art such as stone or antler carvings and prints are not only in a position to be exported across the border, but are in fact duty free. --------------------------- Bloco de notas
