À propos de cet audio
In this episode of the Rez Dog Walkers Podcast, host Dallas Smith is joined by Art Wilson, a Councillor of We Wai Kai Nation, and the Referrals Office Manager at the Nanwakolas Council in Cambell River. Art has more than two decades of experience in the forestry sector and received a Natural Resource Technology Diploma and Forestry Certificate from Nicola Valley Institute of Technology in 2003.
Join Dallas and Art in this engaging discussion, as Art shares some key successes in We Wai Kai Nation’s economic development, showcasing the importance of Indigenous-owned businesses in strengthening Indigenous communities and ensuring the protection of culturally significant sites. Dallas further explores how Indigenous participation in resource industries not only benefits communities economically, but also plays a key role in advancing responsible land management practices.
They also discuss some of the urgent issues facing Indigenous participation in B.C.’s forestry industry today, in context of the United Steelworkers, Local 1-1937 strike. Dallas highlights the need to combat misinformation with culturally informed education and open dialogue.
