thumb|Kabloka, a Netsilik girl in 1903-05 The Netsilik (Netsilingmiut) are Inuit who live predominantly in Kugaaruk and Gjoa Haven, and somewhat in Taloyoak of the Kitikmeot Region, Nunavut, and, to a smaller extent in the north Qikiqtaaluk Region, in Canada. They were, in the early 20th century, among the last northern indigenous peoples to encounter missionaries from the south.

==Language== The missionaries introduced a system of written language called Inuktitut syllabics (Qaniujaaqpait), based on syllabics, to the Netsilik in the 1920s. Eastern Canadian Inuit, among them the Netsilik, were the only Inuit to adopt a syllabic system of writing. The Netsilik's spoken language is Natsilingmiutut. It is a dialect of Inuvialuktun and the only one written in syllabics. The Utkuhiksalingmiut, a Kivallirmiut (Caribou Inuit) group speak a variant of it, Utkuhiksalik.
