The case for an Indigenous-led wildfire response
Manage episode 488678121 series 2739843
This year’s fire season is on track to be one of the worst on record. It’s displacing thousands, including many First Nation communities. We hear from those forced to flee far from home, about the fear they face. We explore the political push to make sure Indigenous communities can take the lead when fires break out. Then, we check in on an Indigenous-led emergency management company that puts this idea into action by supporting evacuees in Toronto.
