Did the numbers of inuktitut/inuinnaqtun speakers change with the creation of Nunavut?

While native languages are in decline in many places, even with recent efforts by governments to help, the Inuit often speak their language(s). I am not sure if the numbers are increasing, but I've yet to meet an Inuit person that couldn't speak their language, and for many, English is a distant second, even for young people. I was on a course last fall for people from the three territories, and for the first time, they did not need a translator for the Inuit students. However, some did require assistance, especially for exams, but we had enough bilingual people that were able to help. None of them spoke English as a first language.
