The Baffin Region was a Region Of The Northwest Territories , in use as an administrative and statistical division until the creation of Nunavut in 1999 . The large majority of Baffin Region fell on the Nunavut side of the boundary and was reconstituted as the Qikiqtaaluk Region (administrative division) and the Baffin Region (census division) within the new territory, while several of the islands on the region's west side that remained in the NWT, including Eglinton Island , Prince Patrick Island and parts of Melville Island , were transferred to Inuvik Region . |
