Breaking Ice
The Northern Region of Canada is an unbelievable place. A place that exists outside of the regular day to day understanding of life for most people. It is a place of extremes, from weather, remoteness, beauty, logistics, to costs, community and adventure. This kind of environment does not create soft people. Living & working in the North has given me the great pleasure of meeting and getting to know these extraordinary individuals. On Breaking Ice we will sit down and talk unfiltered with people about their lives, business and passions.

Tommy Kakfwi - Hosting Radio, Childhood Tuberculosis & Spirit of Adventure
Tommy and I got to know each other about 1 year ago when I was doing some work in Fort Good Hope. More recently we came across each other at the Legion in Norman Wells and decided we would do a podcast together. Out of sheer curiosity he agreed and the next day we sat down together. We talked about his childhood, and how devastating his battle with tuberculosis was and how he has since strived for adventure. Enjoy the conversation.
