Nubian Interpreters in Thunder Bay

Nubian interpreters in Thunder Bay for refugee, medical and settlement settings, with the variety confirmed at booking rather than defaulting to Arabic.

Spoken Nubian is where the language itself matters, and the varieties differ: Nobiin and the Kenzi-Dongolawi group are not fully mutually intelligible, so we ask which variety and which side of the Egypt or Sudan border a speaker is from at booking. We confirm the client's preferred language and interpreting requirements before a refugee hearing so a Nubian interpreter of the matching variety is assigned rather than defaulting to Arabic.

Our Nubian interpreters attend IRB refugee hearings and IRCC interviews, hospital and clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA, and settlement meetings. Much of this is by phone or video, with in-person attendance in Thunder Bay where a matching interpreter is available.

For an in-person assignment in Thunder Bay we assign a Nubian interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly.

Nubian Court, Medical and IRCC Interpreters in Thunder Bay

Nubian interpreters in Thunder Bay attend IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and hospital appointments, matched to Nobiin or the Kenzi-Dongolawi group and to the Egypt or Sudan side of the border.

Thunder Bay is the largest city in northwestern Ontario and a regional hub on Lake Superior, serving a district roughly the size of France. It is home to Lakehead University, Confederation College and NOSM University, and the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre provides care to more than 245,000 people across the northwest. The city has the region's largest Francophone community, with about 2.5 per cent reporting French as a mother tongue, alongside a significant Indigenous population.

Ojibwe and Oji-Cree, known as Anishininiimowin, are spoken across the surrounding communities, and the city acts as a service centre for many remote First Nations. Courts, hospitals and social services here frequently require Indigenous-language and French interpreting, together with newer immigrant languages. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice, including Small Claims Court, serve the district, sustaining ongoing demand for translation and interpreting.

About the Nubian Language

Nubian refers to a group of related languages spoken by perhaps 1 million people across northern Sudan and southern Egypt - the historical homeland of the ancient Nubian civilization, with a written tradition stretching back over a millennium. The major modern varieties include Nobiin, Dongolawi, and Kenzi. Nubian speakers in Canada are served through our national interpreter network; civil records from Sudan and Egypt are issued in Arabic, so translation usually runs from Arabic while the Nubian need is spoken.
