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.
