The ancestors of the present-day Inuit, who are culturally related to Inupiat (northern Alaska), Katladlit (Greenland) and Yuit (Siberia and western Alaska), arrived about 1050 CE.

Inuit means “people,” and the language they speak is called Inuktitut, though there are regional dialects that are known by slightly different names. Today, the Inuit communities of Canada live in the Inuit Nunangat—loosely defined as “Inuit homeland”—which is divided into four regions.https://www.facinghistory.org/stolen-lives-indigenous-peoples-canada-and-indian-residential-schools/historical-background/inuit.

A member of the Inuit is called and Inuk. They live in the far northern areas like Alaska,  Canada, Siberia and Greenland. Inuit people live based off cold tundra living. Their way of living is to use the land and animals. In the winter time they make igloos and summer they make their homes out of animal skins stretched over driftwood frames or whalebones.

Traditionally, the Inuit were hunters and gatherers who moved seasonally from one camp to another. Large regional groupings were loosely separated into smaller seasonal groups, winter camps (called "bands") of around 100 people and summer hunting groups of fewer than a dozen. Each band was roughly identified with a locale and named accordingly — the Arvirtuurmiut of Boothia Peninsula were called "baleen whale-eating people." (See also Igloo and Inuksuk.)

This includes Nunatsiavut (Northern coastal Labrador), Nunavik (Northern Quebec), the territory of Nunavut, and the Inuvialuit region (Northwest Territories). There are approximately 65,025 Inuit identifying people in Canada according to the 2016 census and 3,860 in Ontario alone. I believe this to be true because the factual source that it comes from. Also because of the way they collect their data on a regular basis, keeping up with the current changes to the information provided by taking census regularly.

Inuit 

Inuit traditionally used a quilliq to survive and now use them symbolically. It is a soapstone oil lamp made with arctic cotton, moss and animal fat. The quilliq kept Inuit warm in their homes and provided light during long dark winter months. It was also used for drying clothes and cooking. The quilliq is now a symbol of Inuit pride. Quilliks are used in teaching cultural rituals, ceremonially at gatherings and in the homes of Inuit.
