On the ground

What Nunavut finances.

Nunavut has no highway connection to southern Canada, and every equipment decision in the territory starts there. Machines arrive by sealift or by air, which means the financed asset is committed to a community for a long time once it lands. Mining operations finance haul trucks, loaders and processing equipment; community and airport infrastructure work finances excavators, graders, cranes and heavy fuel handling equipment against project funding rather than against a local rental market, because there is no local rental market to fall back on.

Tax and lien registration in Nunavut.

Only GST applies; there is no territorial sales tax on equipment. Security is registered in the Nunavut Personal Property Registry under territorial PPSA legislation. Freight is a first-class line item rather than a footnote, and a structure that leaves sealift cost off the financed amount forces the operator to carry it in cash at the worst possible moment.

Payment structures that fit Nunavut.

The sealift window, not the approval date, decides when equipment can actually start earning. A file approved after the last sailing waits a full year, so Nunavut applications are worth starting long before the purchase feels urgent.
