Host Chad Hughes welcomes Jennifer Tidmarsh, Vice President of Indigenous Relations & Partnerships with Ontario Power Generation, to the show. Jennifer talks about the development of small modular reactors in the nuclear space and the challenges surrounding presenting those solutions to the community.Jennifer explains some of the public perceptions around nuclear power that have been shaped by events like Three Mile Island, Fukushima, and Chernobyl, and even pop culture references like the nuclear power plant in The Simpsons. Her work involves a lot of education around changing those perceptions and explaining the new initiatives in place for nuclear waste management. Chad and Jennifer discuss the Indigenous community's concerns about the storage and handling of nuclear waste, specific facts about nuclear waste, the complex regulatory process for it, and the value of nuclear energy for the future. Jennifer sheds light on the environmental assessments that go into nuclear power generation and how the OPG works to alleviate negative perceptions of nuclear overall and educate the public on safeties in place.“But really the perception has been we want more information about nuclear as a whole, not just those little snippets of, okay, here's the permit we need for this, for the reactor. It's where does nuclear fit into the Ontario grid, and why are you doing this? So we've spent a lot of time really talking about, you know, pathways to decarbonization, which was a report that was put out by the IESO. And you know what, the fact that we need generation and why do we need generation and what's the plan going forward. And so that's been, you know, us doing a lot of that groundwork. And we have had pushback. You know, I can't sugarcoat it all, right?” - Jennifer TidmarshAbout Jennifer Tidmarsh:With a strong background in the energy sector, Jennifer has worked with various organizations, associations, regulated and unregulated businesses, Indigenous communities, governments, and ministerial departments. Prior to becoming the Vice President of Indigenous Relations and Partnerships at Ontario Power Generation, Jennifer was the President of Transmission in Canada for NextEra Energy, the largest renewables developer in North America. In addition to business development in Canada, Jennifer also led the development and construction of the East West Tie transmission project in Northwestern Ontario, which went into service in March 2022.  The East West Tie project is proud to have an equity partner in six First Nations communities, as well as training and employing a large Indigenous workforce in the region.---Chad Hughes | CEO, Entrepreneurial Leader, Author: website |linkedinJennifer Tidmarsh | Vice President, Indigenous Relations & Partnerships: website | linkedin | opg instagram

Kim Hill interviews historian and writer Dr Michael King at the time of the release of his acclaimed book ‘The Penguin History of New Zealand', in 2003, the year before King's death. The author talks about his optimism for Māori and Pākehā relations. He says one of the reasons he writes books is because "information dissolves prejudice". He offers a theory that you can have two indigenous peoples in one country - that Māori are our first people and Pākehā are our second people.

All around the world, scientists, researchers, advocates, and activists are calling for urgent action on climate change to avoid the dangers that it poses to the stability of our society. In response, governments and corporations have made pledges to commit to cleaner, more sustainable practices, reduce emissions, and begin transitioning toward a net zero future. However, we're seeing a disconnect between the level of action required to mitigate and adapt to climate change and the actual efforts and policies in place to achieve those goals. This is commonly referred to as the Climate Action Gap.To help illuminate the complexity of the Climate Action Gap, and discuss how we can ensure meaningful action is being taken on climate change, Cleantech Forward host Jeanette Jackson sits down with Justin Bull.Together the two discuss The complexity of the Climate Action Gap and the reasons behind why organizations are delay action;How we can ensure meaningful measures are being taken to mitigate and adapt to climate change; andWhy it is so important that we take urgent action to address climate changeJustin Bull is an Adjunct Professor at the UBC Sauder School of Business, the Leader of the Sustainability and Ethics Group, and the Academic Director of the newly established Centre for Climate and Business Solutions.

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: The Festival of Friends is around the corner – coming up on August 4th – and we now hae word of the iconic Gage Park festival's lineup. Red Bull's Max Verstappen led from start to finish and cruised to victory at the Canadian Grand Prix for a second year in a row on Sunday. Chinese President Xi Jinping met with top U.S. diplomat Antony Blinken in Beijing on Monday, as the two superpowers seek to put relations back on track after they were derailed by a Chinese spy balloon earlier this year. Open Streets on King Street got its first test-run on Sunday. The idea was originally instigated in the city by former Mayor Fred Eisenberger. Leaders of the Robinson Huron Treaty Litigation Fund say they've reached a proposed $10-billion settlement with the governments of Ontario and Canada over unpaid annuities for using their lands. At four historical sites across Hamilton, the city says it has installed signs to acknowledge the statues and monuments are "potentially problematic" for Indigenous communities and that it is working on "gathering the true history behind them." We take a look at Spanish tech company Virtualware, who recently partnered with McMaster University to unveil a new, state-of-the-art virtual reality room at McMaster Innovation Park.

Chad Hughes welcomes Jeff Burke - Environment, Land and Emissions Governance for TC Energy - to the show to talk about non-technical risk across jurisdictions. Jeff addresses common challenges that can be expected whether you're in Canada, the US, or Mexico, and shares great advice for land access professionals.Jeff started out in construction and maintenance projects for a Canadian national railway company. Through that he gained an understanding of the ways in which industry impacts land owners, which ultimately led him into his land career. With his current company, TC Energy, whom he's been with for over ten years, he has worked in and around land, and in Indigenous relations and environmental regulatory roles.Chad and Jeff Burke talk about how the pandemic changed communication, the relational skill set required to work in the land industry, evaluating risks in terms of land rights, and the commonalities in the disciplines that apply regardless of jurisdiction. Jeff's advice on managing non-technical risk and how to get a project out of the gate is born from vast experience. His insight will prove valuable to anyone working in land access or project development careers.“And, you know, the relationship management and the ability to form relationships, specifically with landowners, is a critical piece. I look for this in all of the people that do our work. It is absolutely necessary that you have the ability to build those relationships, be relatable, show empathy, communicate effectively, etcetera.” - Jeff BurkeAbout Jeff Burke:Jeff Burke has been with TC Energy since 2013 and has held various management positions, including in Land, Indigenous Relations, Environment and Regulatory affairs. He is currently the Director of Environment and Land Governance, overseeing enterprise level requirements, risk management and strategy for the Environment and Land functions. Over his career, he has been deeply involved in leading the acquisition and management of land rights, and landowner engagement across North America.---Chad Hughes | CEO, Entrepreneurial Leader, Author: website |linkedinJeff Burke | Director - Environment, Land and Emissions Governance for TC Energy: website | linkedin

canadaLANDBACK is a co-production by Canada's National Observer and Canadaland.Landback is not just about returning real estate.It is about Indigenous people reclaiming who we are and making ourselves whole again.An elder once told me that he believed residential schools were designed to hurt women, because "They knew that when you break the hearts of our women, you break the strength of our nations."That story and other teachings tell us that women are central and even sacred to our communities. This episode looks at how women are reclaiming their role as mothers, teachers, leaders, and sacred beings, despite everything colonialism has thrown at them. This is not a story of hope, so much as it is a story of resilience and courage. In this episode of landback we interview three women, whose stories intersect; Terri Brown, a former chief of the Tahltan First Nation in British Columbia, and former president of the Native Women's Association (NWAC); Dr. Beverly Jacobs, Mohawk, Six Nations, is the Senior Advisor to the President on Indigenous Relations and Outreach at the University of Windsor and an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Law, who is also a former President of NWAC; Tori Cress Ojibway and Pottawattami, G'Chimnissing is a land and water defender.

The ongoing war in Ukraine is creating problems for two major exporters of potash fertilizer.Prior to the conflict, Russia and its close ally---Belarus----accounted for a combined 40 percent of global potash production. Both countries are going through challenges selling their product. Nutrien has six potash mines in Saskatchewan and is in the process of expanding production at three of those mines.Ken Seitz is Nutrien's Chief Executive Officer. He says while Russia has managed to skirt around European sanctions by moving more oil and natural gas to China and India---it is a much different story for potash, which is a bulk commodity. Farm Credit Canada is working with indigenous peoples to expand agricultural ventures---both large and small.However, accessing capital from banks has been a major challenge for First Nations and Farm Credit Canada want to make the process easier.Shaun Soonias is the Director of Indigenous Relations with FCC.

In this episode, upon the first anniversary of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we'll hear unique perspectives from Indigenous leaders from across Canada on what September 30 means to them, the painful legacy it symbolizes, and how, together, we can hopefully move forward.

Considering that The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada was established over 14 years ago, why has the sector failed to take a more meaningful role in an area where its support could make a real difference?
