Well....I would explain it in more detail but I simply will not because of the way you presented the question.
Research my friend of ALL the Earth Changes and come back when your head is clear. Mean remarks/questions are not tolerated by me and I like to be respected.
Who would be better arbiters of the earth's relation to the sun than the Inuit?

How about the guys who built the Kokino observatory more than 3,800 years ago? The Sun still rises at the same place on the solstice as it did when the observatory was built.

Thanks Phage, voice of reason.
Many people have visited Stonehenge, and know that it has it's share of astronomical alignments as well. Perhaps they read the paper each year, and hear about various groups, wicca, Druid, etc., who occasionally come "back" to this famous place.
I think if something was "off", we might hear about it from some of these folks, dontcha think?

As mentioned you would think that astronomers would pick up on a shift in the axis of the earth.
Beyond a tiny shift in the Earth's axis due to the Fukushima earthquake, there have been no reports of axial shifts
Just to be sure that all the worlds astronomers were not part of some big conspiracy. I double checked the positions of some key stars against a program to track their positions.
Sorry, stars are where they should be. Epic fail on the Inuit's part there.
This doesn't mean that the Earth isn't changing.
Maybe AGW has caused a melt that has influenced the peak that they are gauging the change in the suns path, making the sun to appear to be setting in a different position.
Remembering that the sun near the poles sets at a pretty steep angle. A mere 10mtr reduction in a peak may make the sun appear to set several degrees away from where it would have set 20 years ago.
