"As soon as we get confirmation of exactly when he'll be coming, we'll let you know," Nunavut Liberal candidate Hunter Tootoo said. "He'll be coming up here in campaign mode."

A community feast complete with caribou meat and frozen Arctic char highlightedTrudeau's visit in January, which Trudeau said was all about bringing attention to Northern people.

Conservative leader Stephen Harper made a brief campaign stop in Iqaluitin August, holding an event behind closed doors with a group of handpicked supporters.

Tootoo took a jab at Harper's visit, saying Trudeau's will be open to the public.

"It won't be held behind monster trucks and it will be open for anyone to come and attend," Tootoo said.
