Ep 561 - Indigenous Rights in One Minute Guest: Bruce McIvor By Stuart McNish “Over the 27 years since the Delgamuukw decision, the relationship between First Nations and the Government of Canada has changed – in some ways significantly. In others, not so much,” says Bruce McIvor, the author of "Indigenous Rights in One Minute.” The legal relationship took another step forward following the Haida decision in 2004. That decision led to changes in the way resource and infrastructure projects are approved and built. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was another milestone: first as a healing journey and second in establishing a record of indigenous history in Canada. The TRC recorded the mistreatment and trampling of rights of First Nations people and shared those stories with the entire country. The Commission heard testimony from 6,500 witnesses, which culminated in a call to 94 actions to further facilitate reconciliation. Understanding and appreciating the unique legal and societal circumstances indigenous people lived under and endured for more than 150 years is challenging. Bruce McIvor says, “A big part of reconciliation is calling out misinformation and lies, getting to the truth so that we can have honest conversations. That was my motivation to write the book.” We invited Bruce McIvor to join us for a Conversation That Matters about what we all need to know in order to talk about reconciliation.

Indigenous relationships with the ocean reveal powerful ways of understanding stewardship, culture, and conservation. This episode highlights how Indigenous communities have long held knowledge that connects people with marine ecosystems, guiding sustainable practices and deep respect for biodiversity. Indigenous relationships are also about resilience, as communities navigate challenges like climate change, resource extraction, and policy that often ignores traditional voices. By listening to these stories, we see how honoring Indigenous knowledge strengthens conservation efforts and creates opportunities for partnerships rooted in respect and reciprocity. Indigenous relationships remind us that conservation is not just about science; it is about people, stories, and traditions that teach us how to protect the ocean for future generations.

Aimee Roberson, executive director of Cultural Survival, joins Mongabay's podcast to discuss how her organization helps Indigenous communities maintain their traditions, languages and knowledge while living among increasingly Westernized societies. As a biologist and geologist with Indigenous heritage, Aimee Roberson is uniquely suited to lead the organization in bridging these worlds, including via “two-eyed seeing,” which blends traditional ecological knowledge and Western science to increase humanity's ways of knowing, toward a view of people as active participants in shaping the natural world. Cultural Survival also sees radio as a critical tool for keeping communities together and fostering a relationship with the land. Roberson shares how their robust radio project is specifically designed to train and empower Indigenous media creators to share local news and cultural information of critical importance, in multiple languages across the world. “It's something that's [a] core part of what we do. Some people are like, ‘Ah, radio, you know, this is 2025. Who cares about radio?' But Indigenous people really care about radio because it keeps our communities together. It's a primary form of communication.” Find the Mongabay Newscast wherever you listen to podcasts, from Apple to Spotify. All past episodes are also listed here at the Mongabay website.

In 1992, the High Court handed down a ruling that shattered centuries of denial. Eddie Mabo’s fight for recognition overturned the legal fiction of terra nullius and forever changed Australia’s relationship with its First Peoples. This landmark decision not only rewrote the nation’s story but also paved the way for the Native Title Act, reshaping law, land, and history. In this episode of Crime Insiders Judgements, we’ll explore the journey of Eddie Mabo, the High Court battle, and its legacy.

This week, our guest is David Nikolejsin, Strategic Advisor at McCarthy Tétrault. David previously served the B.C. government as Deputy Minister for seven years under the Natural Gas Development and Energy and Mines Ministries. He was involved with implementing a successful “one window” approach that helped LNG Canada Phase 1 advance through construction. In recent weeks, the Canadian federal government has announced several initiatives to fast-track major projects, including the establishment of the Major Projects Office (MPO) and the announcement of the first five projects. Based on David's experience in getting projects off the ground, both in government and now working with proponents, here are some of the questions we asked David: How are environmental reviews for major LNG projects currently conducted in B.C., and which level of government—provincial or federal—takes the lead? What advice would you offer the newly appointed CEO of the MPO, Dawn Farrell, as she begins her new role? In what ways have Indigenous rights in B.C. evolved over the past five or so years, and do projects now require Indigenous equity participation to get done? Given that B.C.'s and Canada's climate goals conflict with the acceleration of LNG exports, should GHG reduction targets be revised to attract more capital investment to B.C.?

Whether it's land development, conservation, or cultural survival, Indigenous peoples are often the last to be consulted, if at all. Yet they're also the ones with the most at stake. Free, Prior and Informed Consent, or FPIC, is meant to ensure that Indigenous communities have the right to say yes or no to decisions that affect their lands, resources, and ways of life. But how often is that right respected in practice? And what does meaningful consent really look like on the ground? Ahead of International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, we speak with three individuals working to uphold Indigenous rights through education, culture, and advocacy: Major Kalam Pie, an Orang Asli educator and co-founder of Jungle School Gombak, Sandra Trinata, a Bidayuh artisan and cultural advocate from Serikin, Sarawak, and Gabriel Hii, the co-chair of the Sarawak CSO-SDG Alliance.Image credit: Fartul Iqwan, Jungle School Gombak, Sandra TrinataSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian interviews Kate Kempton. Kate is a Senior Counsel Woodward & Company LLP. She discusses the implications of two laws, Bill 5 (Unleashing Ontario's Economy Act) and the Building Canada Act, on Canadian values and Indigenous rights. Kate criticizes the bills for potentially undermining constitutional rights and called for a balanced approach that addresses both economic needs and indigenous concerns. She says they grant sweeping powers to cabinets, similar to the "Henry VIII clauses" that allow laws to be suspended at the discretion of the government. Kate also covers the importance of including First Nations in decision-making processes and the need for reconciliation.

Our lead story: the controversial major projects legislation Bill C-5 passes third reading in the Senate, but only after some heightened debate over its anticipated effects on Indigenous rights. . . . . . . . . Interstitial: zapsplat.com
British Columbia with David eby, trying to get a fast track of legislation through so that major projects, major infrastructure projects, can be, can be pushed through the process faster with with little discussion, and with, shall we say, little fewer studies, and in looking at What the environmental impacts are actually going to be, of course, the the claim by the government that that isn't necessarily true, but whenever we try to fast track a infrastructure project that we know that something is going to actually have to suffer. Case in point, one of the one of the big, big things in Richmond BC is the Massey tunnel. And of course, there's talk about, should we put another tunnel in, or should we put a bridge in? And one of the first things that popped up is the marine life and the shadow that the bridge would cause on the marine life increasing because of temperature changes, because of the shadow, Would it increase algae? How would it affect other marine life in that particular area, there's a lot of a lot of if bins, least of the if bins are the ferries that we actually have to pass under the bridge in order to hit a docking area. So the same thing is also going to hold true with Mark Carney, when he is also after talking to the the the premiers across the country that he is also trying to put through a fast track bill that would do this across the country. It was also fast track things like mining projects, pipelines, that while commerce is an important thing for Canada, it cannot be the absolute number one thing. Let's make a whole bunch of a big pile of money at the same time, we leave behind areas in our country that are ripped apart because of trying to wreak trying to claim the resources that are within, or trying to get them to to to the global market. And this is the concern of the indigenous people, because stewardship and the land are what is most important to the indigenous people. There has been, every time I say that, there has been criticism from other people saying, well, we don't, we don't operate just on environments and ecosystems that we have to operate on money.

Alexandra Climent is a rainforest conservationist, sculptural artist, and the founder of Endangered Rainforest Rescue, a women and Indigenous-led nonprofit organization working to restore biodiversity by planting endangered tree species and protecting indigenous land in the Darién Gap of Panamá. Alexandra has led expeditions for several years into this unexplored rainforest where she and her team are working to reforest an essential corridor for the endangered jaguar. The main goal is to use endangered tree species as the building blocks for habitat restoration in deforested areas, reconnecting them to primary forests. The Darién Gap stands as a vital ecological corridor connecting the Americas, holding immense importance in safeguarding the global ecosystem. The work of Alexandra's organization is not only crucial at a local scale but also pivotal for worldwide climate mitigation efforts.Alexandra's artistic practice involves utilizing materials gathered from fallen trees in the rainforest that she collected over several years, working with some of the most dense and beautiful wood in the world. The aim of her work is to showcase the rainforest's beauty and highlight its urgent need for protection.She has published articles about her work, most recently in "The World Sensorium, Plantings," where she emphasizes the importance of protecting the Darien Gap and its crucial role in preserving indigenous lands.This week, Mark and Alexandra talk about work on the ground, bringing the work to the world and doing it with a lot of curiosity and wonder.Save What You Love with Mark Titus:Produced: Emilie FirnEdited: Patrick TrollMusic: Whiskey ClassInstagram: @savewhatyoulovepodcastWebsite: savewhatyoulove.evaswild.comSupport wild salmon at evaswild.com

The Phnom Chum Rok Sat community forest used to support local and Indigenous groups in Cambodia's Stung Treng province, as well as a thriving local ecotourism venture, but that all changed this year when mining company Lin Vatey privately acquired roughly two-thirds of the land and began clearing the forest. Mongabay features writer Gerry Flynn investigated how this happened with freelance reporter Nehru Pry, and speaks with co-host Mike DiGirolamo about how the 10 individuals behind the land grab, many of whom have connections to powerful Cambodian military officials and their families, managed this land grab. Local community members who have resisted currently face legal intimidation and arrests. While community forests, such as Phnon Chum Rok Sat, are supposed to belong to the public, this kind of corporate acquisition of land is commonplace in the nation, Flynn says. “As we see a lot in Cambodia, it's public forests being turned into private fortunes.” Like this podcast?

On The LatinNews Podcast this week, we look at what is being done to resolve the long standing conflict between the Chilean government and the Mapuche indigenous people, inhabitants of parts of south-central Chile, who have suffered from a policy of "pacification" which resulted in a tragic history of exterminations and displacement. Tracing its roots back to the time of Chile's independence from Spain in 1810, the Mapuche conflict has evolved over time and there is now an increase in violent acts as militant Mapuche groups seek greater recognition and rights to ancestral lands. The magnitude of the challenge is not lost on President Boric who launched a commission in 2023 to find a solution. So, how can Chile address this long standing historical debt to the Mapuche? Joining us on the podcast is Dr Pablo Policzer, Associate Professor of Political Science and former director of the Latin American Research Centre at the University of Calgary in Canada who provides us with contexts from the very beginning of the conflict to the current day.
Join us as we welcome the insightful Dr. Peter Rosset, an esteemed agroecologist and activist embedded in the heart of Central America. Dr. Rosset brings his wealth of experience with La Via Campesina—a formidable global social movement uniting over 200 million rural families—to our discussion. Together, we dissect the pivotal role this movement plays in championing indigenous rights and food sovereignty while defending nature, rural life, and equitable access to land. Contrast the principles of agroecology with the entrenched norms of industrial agriculture, and explore how harmonious, socially just farming practices can resist the tide of agribusiness and revitalize rural landscapes, particularly in the Global South. Our exploration extends into the political undercurrents that have shaped agricultural revolutions in Latin America, influenced by historic movements like the Vietnam War and Black Power Movement. Discover the journey of a politically-engaged individual whose technical support during the Nicaraguan revolution and subsequent experiences across Latin America underscore the complexities of fostering ethical agricultural systems. Learn practical ways to support farm workers, indigenous land claims, and family farmers in the U.S. Finally, we turn our focus to Cuba, where innovative agricultural practices, such as urban organopanicos and the campesino-to-campesino model, emerged from necessity and now stand as beacons of sustainable food production. Reflect on Cuba's lessons of ecological resilience and social equity, crucial as we confront the challenges posed by climate change.

Across the U.S., large scale renewable energy projects, transmission lines, and mining sites for critical minerals are built on or near tribal lands. For example, the federal government plans to loan billions of dollars to Lithium Americas to develop a lithium mine in Nevada at a location known as Thacker Pass, sacred to local Paiute and Shoshone people. With the tumultuous history of energy development on indigenous lands, many tribes are pushing back on citing new infrastructure on their land. So, how is the energy transition impacting Native American communities? And what are advocacy groups and the federal government doing to protect indigenous rights and lands? This week host Bill Loveless talks with Kate Finn about the contentious history of energy projects on Native American lands, how that history influences energy development today, and how her organization is working to ensure Native Americans have a seat at the table in determining how best to use indigenous lands. Kate is the executive director of First Peoples Worldwide, an organization focused on upholding the rights, sovereignty, and economic power of Indigenous People around the world. She was the inaugural American Indian Law Program Fellow at the University of Colorado Law, where she worked directly with tribes and Native communities. Her recent work focuses on the impacts of development in Indigenous communities, and embedding respect for Indigenous peoples into routine business operations.
"The continent's most violent country" is a phrase used in BBC News this week. In this episode, my guest scholar, Dr. Carmen Martinez Novo, takes us through the history of Ecuador's indigenous peoples and their struggles for equal rights and environmental rights, including an almost three-decade lawsuit against Chevron (initially Texaco). Of course, in this conversation, Dr. Martinez Novo will peel the history behind Ecuador's current state of violence - unprecedented for once a peaceful country. Dr. Martinez Novo is the author of Undoing Multiculturalism: Resource Extraction and Indigenous Rights in Ecuador (2021), which we discuss in this episode. And here is my conversation with Dr. Claudio Fuentes about Chile's modern history: https://bit.ly/HbN-S2E38s You can also watch our podcasts:
