The Hill Times

Every year, climate change seems to hit closer and closer to home. Wildfires, floods, droughts, heatwaves—these are hardly newsworthy anymore. Large carbon mitigation projects still make the news: hydrogen plants, carbon capture, EV manufacturing, etc., but frankly, these do little for the climate change impacts Canadians are actually facing. And while the population decries climate inaction, this is, ironically, perhaps the biggest policy opportunity in Canadian history. The most at stake.

And this goes for non-Indigenous people, as well: food, water, and culture security are my top picks in a changing climate. And that means that we have to learn how to be better stewards. And we are extremely fortunate to be able to look up to those who still somehow know how to do this, how to be adaptive, resilient, and place-based. I am not Indigenous, nor do I speak for Indigenous People.
