Iqaqrialu was first elected to the Nunavut Legislature in the 1999 Nunavut general election. He won the electoral district of Uqqummiut in a hotly contested three-way race defeating former Northwest Territories MLA's Tommy Enuaraq and Pauloosie Paniloo. He served a single term in the legislature as chair of the Committee of the Whole.
Iqaqrialu ran for re-election in the 2004 Nunavut general election but was badly defeated by James Arreak finishing sixth out of seventh. His popular vote evaporated with 74% since the last election swinging to other candidates.[2]
