About this episode
Today we speak to Natasha Akiwenzie who lives in Neyaashiinigmiing, an unceded First Nation, and is a co-founder of the Bagida’waad Alliance. Chippewas of Nawash, Saugeen and other Indigenous fishing families founded an environmental not-for-profit organization to research the waters of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay to better understand the contributions of climate change to the decline of the once prominent Whitefish population. A large part of the organizations advocacy is to encourage youth to hear the stories from the Elders and do more active stewardship of the lands and waters. https://bagidawaad.ca/
