The 2021 wildfires in British Columbia didn’t just destroy homes; they severed deep-rooted connections between Indigenous communities and their ancestral lands. This episode, a follow-up to our previous discussion on Canada, features a survivor from an Indigenous community in Merritt, BC, who shares the profound impact of displacement. With insights from Dr. Yvonne Su (York University) and Dr. Will Greaves (University of Victoria), we explore how Indigenous knowledge, community resilience, and multi-level governance must shape Canada's climate response.
