On this #HeritageDay I hope Canadians reflect on Canada’s real heritage of dispossession, oppression and genocide for unfettered access to Indigenous people’s land and resources that still reverberates and is ongoing to this very day.

Is it a coincidence that widespread understanding of what the climate crisis has in store for us is lining up with a moment of national reckoning about what Canada really is?
Given the deep connection between colonialism and the climate crisis, this feels like a moment.
