Joanna Quassa

Joanna Quassa is a Canadian Inuk politician, who was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut in the 2021 Nunavut general election. She represented the electoral district of Aggu.

She is the sister-in-law of her predecessor Paul Quassa, and previously served as mayor of Igloolik.

She ran for election to the assembly in the 2025 election and received the largest number of votes in the Aggu electoral district but with less than 2 per cent difference between her and Erasmus Ivvalu, triggering a judicial recount. As the final result was tied, a by-election was held on December 15, 2025; she lost it to Edward Attagutaluk, placing second.
