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.

2. Off the hook: Salmon and steelhead
In this episode of 54 degrees North, we hear how salmon and steelhead are being impacted by climate change. Salmon often unite people across the Skeena watershed and this time should be no different. Listen to the stories and science behind our declining wild salmon.
Interviews with Chief Namoks (John Ridsdale), Lucia Gastiazoro, Michael Price, Richard Wright, Freda Huson, Shannon McPhail and Carrie Collingwood.
Music thanks to the locally talented Los Gringos Salvajes and Rachelle van Zanten
