Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox islands The uninhabited Bear Islands are located in James Bay, southeast of the Belcher Islands. They are part of the Qikiqtaaluk Region, in the Canadian territory of Nunavut[1] and consists of black basalt outcrops. They are made up of the Bear Island and Two Cubs Islands. Nearby is Sunday Island.

From 1957 to 1965, Bear Island was a radar site on the Mid-Canada Line and also housed a petroleum depot and small airfield. After being abandoned, it lay derelict. In 1996 it was identified for remediation, and this work was completed during the summer of 2010 at a cost of $5.5 million.
