54 Degrees North - Podcast series about issues around Northwest BC
54 Degrees North is a podcast created out of Wet'suwet'en territory in Smithers, BC. It is produced periodically as a topic series - looking at regional climate change impacts; digging deeper into food security; assessing mining impacts on salmon watersheds; and bringing in some episodes from Beneath the Surface by the BC Mining Law Reform. Through engaging interviews and conversations with experts and Indigenous knowledge holders, we bring up insights and issues related to the northwest.

Salmon resilience in the Taku region
As part of our salmon connections and resilience series, we go further north to Taku River Tlingit territory to learn about the work and research being done to protect salmon and adapt to changing conditions from climate impacts.
Thanks for the interviews and insights from Mark Connor and Chris Sergeant.
Music thanks to the late Telkwa Ted Turner, and to Facundo Gastiazoro for the art.
