In het ijskoude noorden van Canada ligt een dorpje dat langzaam in de zee verdwijnt door klimaatverandering. Dat klinkt misschien als het plot van een slechte rampenfilm, maar helaas is het realiteit. Je komt niet zomaar in dat dorp; je moet zo'n drie dagen reizen via land, zee en lucht, en als er eenmaal bent is het vaak ijskoud. Nou ja, koud, maar ook steeds warmer, want door klimaatverandering dooit het oeroude water in de grond, totdat er geen grond meer is om te dooien. Dat dorp heet Tuktoyaktuk. Onderzoeker Fleur van Crimpen stond zelf jarenlang met haar laarzen in de modder van Tuktoyaktuk om de permafrost waarop het is gebouwd te onderzoeken. Ze praat er passievol over met Syb Faes, de presentator van deze nacht, en vertelt hoe ze ook een band heeft opgebouwd met de lokale bevolking. En Tuktoyaktuk lijkt misschien uitzonderlijk en onbenullig, maar toch zou het dorp zomaar eens de toon kunnen zetten voor de toekomst van Nederland.

We are proud to host a special series of podcasts highlighting the ICC Inuit Artist of the Month. On the first Thursday of every month in 2023 we'll hear from one of the 12 artists. Thanks to funding by the Department of Canadian Heritage – Indigenous Language Component, each artist is provided a bursary to further their art.In this episode, host Madeleine Allakariallak speaks with Priscilla Boulay, who is originally from Tuktoyaktuk in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region.She is a third generation carver – working with soapstone, walrus ivory, muskox horn, caribou antler, and baleen. She makes traditional Inuit carvings, and jewelry.Her unique style of carving stems from her views and experiences of traditional Inuvialuit life, growing up on the coast of the Arctic ocean on the Beaufort Sea.ᐃᓄᐃᑦᐅᑭᐅᖅᑕᖅᑐᒥᐅᖃᑎᒌᑦᑲᑎᒪᔨᖏᒃᑯᑦᐃᓄᐃᑦᓴᓇᙳᐊᖅᑎᖏᑦᑕᖅᑭᖃᖅᑎᑕᐅᓂᖓᑦᐹᑦᑳᔅᑦᒧᑦᑕᕐᕆᔮᔅᓴᑦ − ᐳᕆᓯᓚᐴᓚᐃᐅᐱᒍᓱᑦᓱᑕ ᐱᒋᐊᖅᑎᑦᓯᕗᒍᑦ ᐊᔾᔨᐅᖏᑦᑐᓂᒃ ᑕᑯᑦᓴᐅᒋᐅᖅᑐᓂᒃ ᐹᑦᑳᔅᑯᑦ ᐃᓄᐃᑦ ᐅᑭᐅᖅᑕᖅᑐᒥᐅᖃᑎᒌᑦ ᑲᑎᒪᔨᖏᒃᑯᑦ ᐃᓄᖕᓂᑦ ᐱᙳᐊᖅᑎᓂᒃ ᑕᖅᑭᖃᖅᑎᑦᓯᑎᓪᓗᒋᑦ. ᓯᑕᒥᖓᓂ ᐱᒋᐊᕐᓗᓂ ᑕᖅᑭᐅᑉ ᑕᖅᑭᑕᒫᑦ  2023−ᒥ ᑐᓴᕈᒫᖅᐳᒍᑦ ᓵᓚᓕᒻᒥᒃ ᖁᓕᓪᓗ ᒪᕐᕉᓗ ᓵᓚᖃᐅᓯᐊᖅᑐᓂ. ᖁᔭᓕᕗᒍᑦ ᑮᓇᐅᔭᖃᖅᑎᑕᐅᒍᑎᑦᑎᓐᓂᒃ ᑲᓇᑕᒥ ᐃᓕᖅᑯᓯᓕᕆᔨᒃᑯᓐᓂᒃ−ᓄᓇᖃᖅᑳᖅᓯᒪᔪᓄᑦ ᐅᖃᐅᓯᕐᖓᔪᑦ, ᐊᑐᓂᒃ ᐱᙳᐊᖅᑎ ᑮᓇᐅᔭᖅᑖᖅᑎᑕᑦ ᐱᙳᐊᕐᓂᕐᒥᓂᒃ ᐱᕚᓪᓕᑲᓐᓂᖁᓪᓗᒍ ᖁᕕᐊᒋᔭᒥᓂ.ᑕᕝᕙᓂ ᐅᓂᒃᑳᕐᒥ, ᑐᙵᓱᒃᑎᑦᑎᔨ ᒫᑕᓕᓐ ᐊᓚᖅᑲᕆᐊᓪᓚᒃ ᐅᖃᖃᑎᖃᖅᑐᖅ ᐳᕆᓯᓚ ᐴᓚᐃᒥᒃ, ᑐᒃᑑᔮᖅᑐᕐᒥᐅᑕᒃᓴᔭᐅᔪᖅ ᐃᓄᕕᐊᓗᐃᑦ ᓄᓇᖓᓂ.ᐱᖓᔪᒋᔭᐅᓪᓗᓂ ᑭᖑᕚᕇᓄᑦ ᓴᓇᙳᐊᖅᑎᐅᔪᖅ − ᐅᒃᑯᓯᔅᓴᒥᑦ ᓴᓇᙳᐊᖅᑐᓂ, ᐊᐃᕕᐅᑉ ᑑᒑᒥᓂᖓᓂᒃ, ᐅᒥᒻᒪᐅᑉ ᓇᒡᔪᒥᓂᖓᓂᒃ, ᑐᒃᑐᒧᑦ ᓇᒡᔪᒥᓂᕐᓂᒃ, ᐊᒻᒪ ᓱᖅᑲᕐᒥᒃ. ᐃᓄᐃᑦ ᓴᓇᙳᐊᕈᓯᑐᖃᖏᓐᓂᒃ ᓴᓇᖃᑦᑕᖅᑐᖅ, ᐊᒻᒪ ᑕᑯᒥᓇᖅᓴᐅᑎᓂᒃ ᓴᓇᕙᑦᑐᓂ.ᐊᔾᔨᐅᖏᑦᑐᖅ ᓴᓇᙳᐊᕈᓯᖓ ᐃᓱᒪᒋᔭᖓᒍᑦ ᐊᒻᒪ ᐊᑐᖅᓯᒪᔭᖏᓐᓂᑦ ᐃᓄᐃᑦ ᐃᓅᓯᑐᖃᖏᓐᓂᑦ, ᐱᕈᖅᓴᓪᓗᓂ ᐅᑭᐅᖅᑕᖅᑑᑉ ᐃᒪᕕᖓᓂ ᐅᐊᓕᓂᐅᑉ ᑕᕆᐅᖓᓂ. Inuit Ukiuqtaqtumiuqatigiit Katimajingikkut Inuit Sanannguaqtingit Taqqiqaqtitauningat Paatkaastmut Tarrijaassat − Purisila PuulaiUpigusutsuta pigiaqtitsivugut ajjiungittunik takutsaugiuqtunik Paatkaaskut Inuit Ukiuqtaqtumiuqatigiit Katimajingikkut Inungnit Pinnguaqtinik Taqqiqaqtitsitillugit.

Fur has become a fashion faux pas in some circles. Aggressive anti-fur campaigns with graphic images and slogans have made furs, feathers and hides increasingly unpopular in popular culture. Animal rights groups say fur farms are cruel, wild animals are trapped inhumanely, and fur just isn't necessary. It has brought international attention to a move to ban it all together. But for these Indigenous trappers and artisans who use fur, it's a way of life: Since 1971, the Manitoba Trappers Association, currently led by President Kenneth Woitowicz, has hosted the Thompson Fur Table. Trappers from all over the north come to this two-day event to sell their furs and even compete for who has the best furs. Trappers like Jeff Laliberty and Terry McLellan. Or youth like Robin Donaldson and Deja Tait, who has been trapping since she was 12 years old. While fewer people come each year, trappers try to stay optimistic about a way of life that has sustained generations, a way of life they still pass on. We head north from Manitoba to the Northwest Territories. Nathan Kogiak is the Fur Marketing and Sales Coordinator for the Government of the Northwest Territories. He helps artisans access affordable materials for their crafts. But Nathan isn't just a public servant. As an Inuvialuk, he also spends a lot of his life out on the trap lines. He knows how challenging – and rewarding – the hunting and trapping way of life can be. Taalrumiq is an Inuvialuit artist, fashion designer, and content creator from Tuktoyaktuk. She also sees herself as an educator. Whether through her online videos or her travels south to sell her work, Taalrumiq takes the opportunity to challenge anti-fur sentiment and offer a different perspective that comes from a long line of fur fashion.

Les changements climatiques forceront des dizaines de millions d'êtres humains à quitter leur foyer au cours des prochaines décennies. Maxime Corneau nous explique comment les habitants de Tuktoyaktuk, une petite communauté du Grand Nord, pourraient devenir les premiers réfugiés climatiques au Canada.

This episode of Unikkaat / Circumpolar Waves is about Inuit Food sovereignty and Self-Governance. For thousands of years, Inuit have thrived in the Arctic relying on our knowledge and values. Core to our culture is hunting, fishing, gathering, and preparing foods. Today, many of our people face food insecurity.  Our food security requires accessibility, availability, culture, health and wellness, stability, and decision-making power and management. It also is distinctly tied to food sovereignty. Without food sovereignty, Inuit cannot achieve food security. This was a primary finding of ICC Alaska's 2015 report, How to Assess Food Security from an Inuit Perspective. The authors of the report stress that a lack of decision-making power and management authority to be the greatest threat to Inuit food security. One of the key recommendations of the 2015 report led to the Food Sovereignty and Self Governance project.  It led to a process to dig deeper into what supports or impedes Inuit food sovereignty. ICC Alaska teamed up with the Inuvialuit Game Council and the Fisheries Joint Management Committee in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region; in Alaska we worked with the Eskimo Walrus Commission, the Kuskokwim River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, the Association of Village Council Presidents, and the Environmental Law Institute; ICC Canada played an advisory role throughout for this work. You can get an idea of how large in scope this project was. It produced a comprehensive report called “Food Sovereignty and Self-Governance: Inuit Role in Managing Arctic Marine Resources”, published by ICC Alaska in 2020, which we refer to as the “FSSG” Report. The report uplifts Inuit voices to bring forward the roles and perspectives of Inuit to support equity and food sovereignty. It combines legal analysis with the lived experience of Inuit. It lays out very important connections to food sovereignty, such as language, biodiversity, climate change, research, monitoring, and over all that a holistic view and approach includes our food sovereignty. While also providing transformative recommendations. There were about 90 Inuit contributing authors throughout this work. In this podcast, hosts Herb Nakimayak, ICC Canada Vice-President (International), and Carolina Behe, the Indigenous Knowledge and Science Advisor for ICC Alaska, speak with four of the contributing authors to the FSSG Report:  Vera Metcalf was born and raised in Savoonga (Sivungaq) on St. Lawrence Island, Alaska. Lawrence Ruben from Paulatuk, Canada. John Noksana from Tuktoyaktuk, Canada. Robert Lekander is an Elder from Bethel, Alaska. The Food Sovereignty and Self Governance (FSSG) Report is available online here in an English language PDF: https://bit.ly/3PxrkCs For more in-depth background, including summary reports leading up to the FSSG Report, please visit the page on “Food Security and Food Sovereignty” on the ICC Alaska website here: https://bit.ly/3CnqTHQ The drumming on this podcast is by the Barrow Dancers, from Utqiaġvik, Alaska. For more information about ICC, check out the ICC websites.

Having the Glory of God Revelation 21:6-21 by William Klock Have you ever considered that Revelation has at least as much to tell us about who we are as the Church—right now!—as it has to tell us about where we're headed as the Church?  In other words, that it's got more to say about identity than it does our future—and that what it does have to say about our future is integrally tied to our identity.  We read the description of the New Jerusalem found in these final chapters of Revelation and our focus seems almost always to be on it as a description of heaven, of the afterlife, or something like that, when the truth of it is that what John sees here is a picture of the Church.  It's future, yes, in the sense that what he sees is the Church perfected, but the important thing we too often miss is that that means it's a picture of what God has called us to be and what he is making us even today through the work of Jesus and the Spirit. In the first part of Chapter 21, we read last week John's description of the city descending like a bride adorned for her husband and I said that all of Church history is like the bride walking down the aisle.  With each step she becomes more beautiful, her dress brightening, her face more radiant, until she reaches her bridegroom, Jesus, perfected. And last week we look at that passage about the city descending and asked, “If the city is the Church and the Church is here, how is it that it also descends?”  And I said that this is John's way of showing us the fulfilment of what Paul wrote in Colossians 3: “For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.  When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.”  Since his ascension, Jesus has been preparing this great day, the consummation of his new creation, the great wedding—there are so many different ways to view it and so many analogies to describe it.  In many ways, the preparation goes back all the way to Genesis 3.  Before the word ever became incarnate in Jesus, God was preparing for this day.  The history of the Lord and his people in the Bible is like an Advent calendar.  Each day we open a door and find another little bit of the story leading us to the last great day when all the Christmas decorations and all the presents come out of the closet or from under the bed and we celebrate.  But along the way we learn who we are in Jesus as a people.  And along the way he prepares us. Too often we're like the couple who calls the minister a few weeks before their planned wedding, just expecting everything to be ready and available so that they can show up and get married.  It doesn't work like that.  And neither does the wedding John shows us in Revelation.  And so, in verses 6 and 7, as we read last week, God speaks from his throne and declares: To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.  The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son.   Can you remember when Jesus said something like this?  Think back to the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew's Gospel.  “Blessed are those who thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied…Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.”  In verse 4 the Lord says that he will wipe away every tear, echoing Jesus' promise, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”  And, of course, remember the context.  John was writing to those churches in Asia Minor about to be caught up in a whirlwind of opposition and persecution and tribulation, all on account of their commitment to Jesus.  Think back to Matthew 5: Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.   “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.  Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven… (Matthew 5:10-12a) And here at the end we see that Jesus has, indeed, blessed those who have committed themselves to him and to his kingdom.  Repeatedly Jesus urged the believers in those churches to “conquer”—to stand firm in faith—and here we see them, along with the whole church throughout history, receiving their reward.  They've not only stood firm in faith, confessing Jesus as Lord even as they faced persecution and sometimes martyrdom, but they've actively pursued the agenda of the kingdom.  These are the people who in faith and hope prayed “on earth as in heaven” and now they see those prayers fulfilled.  In their prayers and in their lives they have commit themselves to God's new world and, having done so, they've finally arrived. In contrast, the Lord warns from his throne: But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”   It might strike us as odd that at the head of this list of sins that exemplify human rebellion and rejection of Jesus and that exclude people from his kingdom is cowardliness.  But, again, remember the context.  Think of the martyrs and of Jesus' exhortation to conquer, to overcome, to stand firm.  That takes courage—and not any courage, but a courage built on faith and hope in Jesus.  Not everyone conquered in the face of persecution.  There were some who took the easy way out and betrayed their Lord—who offered a pinch of incense to Caesar, who took part in the pagan temple rites lest people think them disloyal or irreligious, who compromised with the Jews on things like circumcision out of fear of being kicked out of the synagogue.  As Jesus said to the Christians in Sardis, “The one who conquers…I will never blot his name out of the book of life.  I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels” (Revelation 3:5).  A faith-inspired courage is required of kingdom people.  Again, think back to Jesus' Sermon on the Mount: Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.  For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.  (Matthew 7:13-14) Following the cowards are those who have, each in their own way, bought into the devil's lie and who have been enticed by the great prostitute and her chalice of filthiness.  Murderers.  Liars.  Both chief characteristics of the devil.  And sandwiched between those two: sexual immorality, sorcery, and idolatry—all things associated the worship of false gods.  In contrast to the blessed who gave their allegiance to Jesus in faith and then lived out the values of his kingdom on earth as in heaven, these are they who have committed themselves to the dragon, to the beast, and to the prostitute, to their lies, to their kingdom, to everything that has corrupted God's good creation.  Jesus has come to make all things new, to renew and to restore.  The first group—the courageous who looked forward to his new world in faith and hope—they've joined him.  The latter have actively opposed Jesus and, as John has seen, have been wiped from creation and cast into the lake of fire to be destroyed, their corrupting influence gone forever. Brothers and Sisters, there's no neutral ground.  There's no fence sitting.  And there's no getting baptised or saying a prayer and then just expecting to be invited to the wedding.  Those with whom the Lord makes his dwelling are those who have invested their lives in the pursuit of God and have lived the life that Jesus and the Spirit have given.  They've been committed—even to the point of death—to seeing his kingdom come: proclaiming the good news about Jesus and pursuing the values of the kingdom: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.  They have shown mercy and they have worked for justice as Jesus has exemplified them.  At the core of it all is that they have scene and known for themselves the love of God made known in Jesus and especially at the cross, and they have loved him in return and committed their whole being to him. Now look at verses 9-10: Then came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues and spoke to me, saying, “Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb.”  And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God…   It's telling that one of the same angels responsible for pouring out God's wrath on the earthy city now shows John the heavenly city.  Brothers and Sisters, never forget that God's wrath and his mercy are inseparably twined together—to side of the same coin.  He is just in punishing sin and in finally and ultimately removing it from his creation and he is equally just in showing mercy to those who have committed themselves to him in Jesus the Messiah.  And the structure of the vision is meant to contrast with what we've seen earlier.  Both times one of these angels says to John, “Come, I will show you…” it's to show him a woman.  Both are beautiful and richly dressed, but one is an illusion, the other is real.  The whore's beauty and riches, on closer inspection, are nothing but filth and corruption.  She embodies the great lie that has enslaved the human race.  Over against the whore is the bride.  The lamb has brought her with his blood, he has washed her clean, and clothed her in white.  The bride is as pure as the prostitute is filthy. But, again, the glory of what John sees here is so difficult to describe that he shifts his imagery.  It's a bit like looking through a kaleidoscope, ever-changing, but still there's a consistent theme that links the images together.  John sees the New Jerusalem “coming down out of heaven from God”.  This is the second time he's seen it come down, which leads some commentators to think that some later editor jumbled up John's visions, but I don't think that's the case.  This is all symbolic and when we consider the nature of the city—and remember the city is the Church—there's a sense in which every time you close your eyes and reopen them or every time you turn away to look at something else and then turn back to see the city, it's going to be “coming down out of heaven from God”.  That's the nature of the church—especially once she's been perfected.  Brothers and Sisters, there is nothing in this world, there is nothing in any of us that could ever possibly bring us together into this body and to do what we do—and not just our little local church, but the church throughout the world.  The Church is unique.  It's called by God.  It's established on his word as it was communicated by the prophets of the Old Testament and the apostles of the New, it is unified not by anything it has done, but instead by its union to Jesus, and it does what it does in the power of the Spirit.  We are of earth, but everything we are and do comes from God and by his grace, which is again why we are the people who pray “on earth as in heaven”. So the city descends.  I don't think the point of John's statement about being on a great high mountain is that he's on one mountain and the city descends to another.  It's one mountain.  Ezekiel has the same sort of vision, but John's also calls back to Psalm 48:2, “Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.”  Now, John goes on in verse 11, describing the city as: having the glory of God, its radiance like a most rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.   The city—the Church—has the glory of God.  The word John uses is one that describes God's presence in the Old Testament and, specifically, his presence in the midst of Israel.  It was associated with the tabernacle and with the ark of the covenant.  And so here the city shines like a rare gemstone, clearly and brightly, because God is in her midst.  John again points us to the source of the Church's beauty.  We don't make ourselves beautiful.  We were sinners clothed in filthy rags, but by his grace Jesus has washed us clean, clothed us in white, and filled us with the Spirit to make us holy.  And that leads us into John's description of the city.  The imagery he uses doesn't come out of nowhere.  This whole scene echoes Ezekiel's vision of the restored temple in chapters 40 to 48 of his prophecy.  And that's key, because remember that the temple was the place of the Lord's presence in Israel.  John goes on in verses 12-14: It had a great, high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed—on the east three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.  And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.   So the city has bounds—we've seen already, it is only for those who belong to Jesus.  It has twelve gates, which bear the names of the tribes of Israel, and it has twelve foundation stones bearing the names of the apostles of the Lamb.  Those gates and those foundation stones identify the city with the people of God—not just the New Testament Church, but, too, the Old Testament Church.  God has only one people and they are all those who are in Jesus the Messiah, whether that's by looking forward to him in hopeful longing or looking back to him through history.  He is the culmination of Israel's story and the cornerstone on which this temple is built. Look now at verses 15-21: And the one who spoke with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls.  The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod, 12,000 stadia. Its length and width and height are equal.  He also measured its wall, 144 cubits by human measurement, which is also an angel's measurement.  The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, like clear glass.  The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of jewel. The first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.  And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.   Like Ezekiel, John measures the city—or he watches as the angel measures it.  What might be the most remarkable thing here is the size.  12,000 stadia just sounds like a big number if you have no idea what a stadia is, but it translates to about 1,500 miles or 2,400 kilometres.  That means that if the centre of the city was at Vancouver, Thunder Bay would be just outside the bounds of the eastern wall.  Fairbanks and Tuktoyaktuk would be well inside the walls to the northwest and New Orleans the southeasterly-most neighbourhood.  But more specifically, it's big enough to descend and obliterate the Roman Empire.  The bride will replace the prostitute.  The heavenly city will leave no place for the earthly.  There's a reason why the ESV doesn't translate the measurement into something modern, because the “1,200” is itself symbolic.  Over and over we see the number twelve in this vision—referring to the patriarchs of the old Israel and the apostles of the new, and here it's multiplied by one thousand.  It's a symbol of the church, the people of God, perfected.  It's also a symbol of the Church's conquest of the earthly city.  And, too, it's not just the length and breadth, but the height.  John says the city lies “foursquare”, meaning it's a cube.  So it's 1,500 miles high, too.  And if we haven't clued in yet, this should make it clear he's seeing all this in symbols, not blueprints.  The point of the imagery is to highlight the city as the dwelling place of God.  It's an enormous holy of holies—that cubical in the tabernacle where the ark rested and that was filled with the cloud of God's glory.  One day when the Church has accomplished the mission Jesus gave her, when she is herself perfected, the Lord will fulfil his promise through her—his glory will fill the whole earth as the waters cover the sea.  That's the point of this imagery that shows the Church as a giant holy of holies. The symbolism continues: The thickness or height of the wall—it's not quite clear which John means—is symbolic as well: twelve times twelve for 144 cubits.  And the wall is like jasper—which he compared earlier to the glory of God manifest in the city.  We might wonder why, with God's enemies all finally defeated, the city even needs a wall.  Remember that in the ancient world walls defined cities.  But this one's not so much for protection from enemies as it is simply the radiance of God's glory surrounding his city.  Too, the city is built of gold, and yet a gold clear as glass.  And the foundations are adorned with gemstones.  There are a variety of theories as to the significance of each and I won't bore you with that this morning.  The key point is that the imagery is drawn from the priest's vestments in Exodus, the stones representing the tribes of Israel.  I think the key takeaway is, again, that the Church as the bride of the lamb is everything of which the prostitute was a parody.  Both were adored with jewels and finery, but one was a lie who enticed the nations of the world to drink from her chalice of filth to their own destruction, and the other is adorned with the truth of the gospel and the chalice she drinks from is Jesus himself.  One woman brings destruction and death to humanity; the other proclaims life—and she is us. That's as far as we'll go today in Revelation 21.  The important takeaway here is to remember that this isn't just about the future.  John is certainly showing us a kaleidoscopic and symbolic vision of the future of the people of God.  But John's point in writing all of this—or I should really say, Jesus' point in revealing all of this to John—was to encourage and exhort the churches under his care as tribulation was about to hit them like a tidal wave.  Remember that Revelation is about three things: tribulation, perseverance, and kingdom.  John shows us the kingdom consummated and in all its future fulness, but he does so, so that we can see it present today as God indwells his Church in Jesus and the Spirit—so that we can see him today leading us by the hand into that future.  John shows us the Church, perfect and glorified, but the same characteristics that mark her out in her future perfection mark her out even today—because past, present, or future it is God himself who graciously makes the Church what she is—because at the centre of it all is Jesus.  And Jesus is not just a future hope.  He lived and died and he ascended and now reigns.  Even if the kingdom hasn't come in all its fulness, even if the Church is not yet perfect and ready for her marriage, Jesus reigns and holds those seven stars—his people, his Church, his bride—in his hands.  He always has, he does today, and he always will.  The same Jesus we see standing as bridegroom at the end of the aisle, waiting to receive his bride is the Jesus who died for his bride and gave her the Spirit.  He is the Church's centre and foundation in the future, because he is our centre and our foundation in the past and in the present.  He is our Lord and what we do in worshiping him and in witnessing him today is drawn up by God in his mercy to build his kingdom bit by bit as she walks in faithful perseverance through tribulation, through opposition, and even through martyrdom.  The gospel spreads one person at a time and as it does we also see the bride walking the aisle and growing more beautiful and perfect with each step.  I often say that the duty of the Church in proclaiming Jesus is to lift the veil on God's new creation to give the world a glimpse of what is to come, but here in his vision, John lifts the bride's veil so that we today, as we face the challenges of the earthly city, can see a glimpse of what God has in store for us as his people and persevere in hope, for Christ has died, Christ is risen, and Christ will come again.   Let's pray: Father, in the Collect we asked you to teach us to ask for those things that please you.  Having seen John's vision of your Church perfected—the embodiment of all that pleases you—we ask for your gracious help to be in the present the people you would have us to be: a people who pursue holiness and live the fruit given by your Spirit, emboldened to live and to proclaim the good news of Jesus, crucified, risen, and Lord, to all the world, a people who commit our all to you in love, because you have given yourself for us.  Through Jesus we pray. Amen.

Susan Knight and I haven't seen each other since Labour Day 1995. We had just come back from the Molson Polar Ice Party in Tuktoyaktuk, NWT. She was working at 92 Rock in Sudbury and from there went to Chatham, Ontario and then Mountain-FM in Squamish, B.C. The rest is a blur but there were stints in Kelowna, Calgary and Victoria, B.C. whee she is now covering a maternity leave at 91.3 The Zone. You know what? She genuinely loves radio.In this episode, you will hear how much she loves radio: Everything from its ability to connect whether it is voicetracked or live; in a disaster or at 5 in the morning. We also talk about her venture into voiceover where she records audiobooks and radio ads for clients. She also admirably answered the hard questions such as her favourite morning show-co-hosts and how women are succeeding in radio despite the well documented obstacles.We also talked about how Susan fell in love with a pair of Doc Marten boots she saw on our trip to the Polar Ice Party in 1995, and her quest to find them in 2021.Thanks also to the people who make this show possible every week including:PromosuiteJustin Dove at Core Image StudiosMegatraxSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Climate change is having a significant effect on Arctic communities. The loss of permafrost and ice sheets, sea level rise, erosion, and many other factors are putting people living in coastal communities and their traditional way of life at risk. In this episode, we’re talking with Jeff King, Deputy Lead of the Engineering With Nature program at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; Sam Whitin, Coastal Resilience Director at EA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc. PBC; and Enda Murphy, Senior Research Engineer at the National Research Council of Canada (NRC). We’re discussing the unique challenges and opportunities involved in identifying and designing resilience strategies to help remote northern communities in Alaska and Canada whose future and way of life is imminently threatened by climate change. And we’re reflecting on how Engineering With Nature approaches could be used to address critical challenges faced by remote northern communities.   The Arctic region is warming at a much higher rate than other parts of the continent. Retreating sea ice, shorter ice season duration, and thawing permafrost are contributing to the destabilization of coastlines. And, as Enda points out, “a lot of these remote northern communities are really reliant on fishing and hunting and the land for subsistence and their livelihoods. That creates an even greater imperative to understand and adapt to the changing climate.” Sam adds that communities in Alaska are also experiencing significant issues related to erosion and flooding, along with impacts to migratory patterns of fish, wildlife and whales: “Given the close connection that these communities have related to subsistence hunting and fishing, climate change is magnified in even more ways than most people typically consider.”   Jeff, Sam, and Enda came together around their common interest of better understanding these impacts and responding to them by applying Engineering With Nature principles and processes. Jeff, through separate conversations with Sam and Enda, “saw a unique opportunity to engage and collaborate and bring more expertise into a region where it's desperately needed.”   One upcoming EWN research project will focus on the whaling community of Point Hope, Alaska, whose traditional way of life is currently being challenged by the accelerating impacts of climate change. Sam talks about the example of ice cellars that have been used in Point Hope for thousands of years to store foodstuffs – fish, wildlife, and whale – throughout the year. The cellars are buried about 20 feet into the permafrost, which is melting due to higher average temperatures. Without those cellars to provide essential refrigeration and fermentation, the community has to harvest extra fish and wildlife throughout the year because there are no roads leading to the city, so outside supplies come in only by plane or once or twice during the summer by barge. This places additional pressure on the fish and wildlife populations and is an example of a problem that could benefit from an EWN approach, drawing on research and expertise from the Army Corps’ Cold Regions Research Engineering Laboratory (CRREL).   Similarly, Enda and the NRC have been working in Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories, an Inuvialuit community very close to sea level on the Beaufort Sea. As Enda relates, “We heard from elders that this particular community has had to relocate three residences just in the past year because of the rapidly eroding coast. So that's a really urgent need.” Enda and his colleagues at the NRC are reimagining what future research in the Arctic might look like and broadening their networks and collaborations, to do research, including with the U.S. Army Corps. A particular area of interest is in understanding the role of sea ice in attenuating or dissipating storm surge. Computer modeling has shown that without sea ice, storm surges may be three times higher, which is a significant problem for communities like Tuktoyaktuk.   A key challenge for researchers is that there is little existing baseline data to establish trends. So, engaging the people of these remote communities and gathering local knowledge is critical. Sam, Enda and their teams are sitting down with elders, hunters, and fishers to understand what they’ve seen and experienced. As Sam adds, “One of the most important things is to make sure that we respond appropriately to what the community truly wants, that we're not coming in and presenting a problem that doesn't need to be fixed or presenting our thoughts on how something should be handled. We are listening to and learning from the community.”   Jeff shares his excitement about the opportunities for incorporating EWN approaches into projects in the far north, paired with the importance of collaborating and sharing information between CRREL and the parallel work being done by Sam and Enda: “Thinking about Engineering With Nature and the natural infrastructure strategies that are appropriate for an environment like this is something very new. I think EWN can make an important contribution – and we will learn a lot in the process.”     Related Links: EWN Website ERDC Website Jeff King at LinkedIn Jeff King at EWN Enda Murphy at LinkedIn Sam Whitin at LinkedIn   Presentation to an NNBF Symposium by Enda on Flood Risk Reduction  NRC’s Ocean Program - Coastal Resilience NRC’s Arctic Program - Increasing the quality of life for Northerners through research NRC’s Ocean, Coastal and River Engineering Research Centre   EA Engineering, Science, and Technology  YouTube video of Sam describing some of his NNBF/EWN work EA’s coastal resilience priority Presentation to SAME Seattle by Sam on Thin Layer Placement   Coastal Zone Canada Community of Practice: Cold Regions Living Shorelines Coastal Zone Canada Conference in June 2021 Sub Themes and Topics of the Coastal Zone Canada Conference

This week travel with us to Tuktoyaktuk in Canada's Arctic where youth are making a film called "Happening to Us" the story of how climate change is impacting their world in dramatic ways.

Canada is an incredibly beautiful country.  There are vast wildernesses barely touched by people.  Parts of it that are still truly wild. But if you truly want to experience the wilds of Canada you have to go North. That’s what this episode is all about.  TBH I have always wanted to explore the "wild, wild North". The Arctic is one of the most unique places on the planet  The Arctic is also home to some of the most fragile ecosystems on the planet.  Very specific environmental conditions are necessary to keep it in balance and its particularly vulnerable to rising temperatures... which makes sense... you know, seeing as its defining feature is how singularly cold it is?  It’s ground zero for a lot of global warming phenomena; that melting ice cap? Rising Sea levels? Thawing permafrost? We all feel the ripples of these changes, but they make up the very foundation of the arctic ecosystem. I guess because it's so far away from where most Canadians live, we don’t think about it that much. It might as well be a totally separate snowy planet in a galaxy far far away... Since I can't make it up there myself, I think it's time to do some at-home research and make a few long-distance calls to way up there! This episode features interviews with: **Charlotte Irish **Charlotte is the Community Climate Coordinator of the Tuktoyaktuk Community Corporation Resilience Project. We chatted a bit about how climate change has been affecting her community waaaaay north in Tuktoyaktuk, Nunavut! Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TCCRPClimateCoordinator/ **David Yurkowski David **works in scientific research studying the arctic! Cool! Literally!! We talked about what he’s been working on and what it’s like to live and work up there in such a unique climate.

Sonya is a 42 year old Canadian who is currently hiking across Canada on the longest multi-use recreational trail in the world with her partner Sean.  The 24,000 km long Great Trail stretches from Cape Spear, Newfoundland to Victoria, British Columbia, and from Edmonton, Alberta to Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories.  They began their journey in Cape Spear, Newfoundland on 1 June 2019 and hiked just over 3,000 km to Riviere-du-Loup, Quebec before the winter arrived.  They will head back to the trail in spring, and estimate they will complete their journey in fall of 2022. Sonya's love of hiking, camping, and the outdoors began as child during multiple school trips into the wilderness.  She built on these experiences in university, where she studied Conservation Biology and Forestry, and spent as much time as possible outside, doing field research on forest songbirds.  Her love of long-distance hiking began with Ontario's 900 km long Bruce Trail, and grew when she hiked the 800 km Camino Frances in Spain with Sean in 2016.  Together Sonya and Sean hiked across France on the Via Podiensis (GR 65) in 2017, and along Newfoundland's East Coast Trail in 2018.  After that they decided to make hiking a more central part of their lives, and after selling the house, donating most of their possessions, and leaving behind Sonya's desk job, they did a warm-up hike along the Camino Portuguese in early 2019 and then began their adventure on the Great Trail. As they hike, their goal is to share positive images and stories of their travels across Canada to showcase the amazing and diverse people, places, history, and landscapes that make up this country.  By sharing their passion for birds, hiking, and nature in person, on their blog, and through social media they hope to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds, but especially youth, to get outside, explore, and connect to nature through birding and Citizen Science.

A pioneering study of seven beluga whales in Canada's remote Arctic waters has found micro plastics inside every single whale. Researchers from Vancouver-based Ocean Wise worked with hunters from Tuktoyaktuk in Northwest Territories to collect samples from whales they harvested between 2017 and 2018. They found an average of nearly 10 micro plastics, or particles less than five millimetres in size, in the gastrointestinal tracts of each beluga, with polyester being the most common type found in the whales. Lead author Rhiannon Moore says she wasn't expecting to see so many micro plastics so far north.   Guest: Rhiannon Moore Researcher at Ocean Wise and lead author of the study

Chapter 1

Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories is a community high in the Canadian Arctic, situated on the shores of the Beaufort Sea. Five young Indigenous filmmakers wanted to do something to show their concern with how climate change is affecting the world around them. They directed and filmed a documentary called, "Happening to Us." The film has garnered international attention and the youth have been invited to present it at a United Nations convention in Chile this December 2019. This episode of Arctic Canada-The Culture Cure features an interview with one of these youth, Eriel Lugt, and examines climate change through the eyes of Indigenous youth in the Arctic.

Gerry Kisoun was born on the land in the Mackenzie Delta of the Northwest Territories in the Canadian Arctic, the second largest delta in North America. At a young age, his family moved from the trapline into the town of Inuvik. He grew up running dog teams and shifted between several jobs before heading to Regina, Saskatchewan and graduting from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (R.C.M.P.) Depot Division as a regular member of the force. After postings in Alberta and the Yukon, Gerry returned to the Northwest Territories, stationed in Tuktoyaktuk on the coast of the Beaufort Sea and his home town of Inuvik. After a stellar 25 year career, Gerry retired. He worked in visitor services with Parks Canada passing his knowledge and love of the Delta on to tourists and youth engaged in on the land programs. Gerry was appointed to the position of Deputy Commissioner of the Northwest Territories from 2011 through 2017, and served as interim Commissioner for a year when the position was vacant. Gerry was awarded the Polar Medal which recognized him as a respected elder who worked tirelessly at strengthening the awareness of Northern Canada and its peoples. In this highly entertaining episode we discuss Gerry's birth on the land, his unique cultural background, his experiences growing up running dogs, his career in the R.C.M.P., climate change, and his desire to keep teaching others about the Western Arctic and Beaufort Delta.

Using positive reinforcement-based skills she learned while training marine animals, and on a chance visit to a VA hospital with her own dog named "bear," Clarissa Black witnessed the full potential that the human-animal bond might provide service men and women returning from war and suffering from PTSD. So she formed an organization called Pets for Vets to identify, match, and train dogs in need of forever homes with vets in need of companion animals that fit their individual lifestyle and needs. Today, PetsforVets.com has grown to 30 thirty chapters across the US. Always ready for the next personal and physical challenge, Clarissa and her friend Leigh Swansborough recently completed a 1200-mile hiking and paddling trek across the Yukon territory to the Arctic Ocean. They are the first women to walk to Tuktoyaktuk via the new completed Dempster highway. Hear about their harrowing and healing journey and the kindness of strangers they met along the way. Plus, a Zoos News update by Rachel Garner on LA zoo's Billy the elephant and efforts by those in power that want to take him from his home of 30 years.   www.whyanimalsdothething.com www.PetsforVets.com www.iReinforce.com  

Dave Bidini discusses his compelling new book Midnight Light - A Personal Journey to the North, his respect for and interest in local reporting, what he discovered on this monumental trip through Canada’s Northwest Territories, a forthcoming album by Rheostatics, and much more!

Have you ever been traveling down the highway and seen a person riding a motorcycle that is loaded down with gear, probably covered with mud to some degree and maybe even has some of the external accessories tied on temporarily? If you have, you were seeing an adventurous soul who seeks the freedom of  open spaces and amazing scenery as can only be seen from the seat of a motorcycle. In this episode we sat down with three guys who know what it’s like to ride over 7,000 miles in one trip from Salt Lake City, UT to Tuktoyaktuk, NWT, Canada AND BACK! Paul, Grant and Corey can now say they survived the Dempster Highway. We had a great time with these guys and couldn't help but imagine what it would be like to take on an adventure as fun and life changing as these guys did. After listening to this episode you'll be wondering the same thing. Thanks for listening and don't forget to hit that subscribe button!

After university in 2014 and with £9,000 in the bank, 22 year old Ben Page flew to the bottom of South America to begin an around the world cycling adventure. As Ben reached Canada he began planning a winter ride on a fat tire bike through the Yukon Territory from Whitehorse to the village of Tuktoyaktuk on the Arctic Ocean. This 2,000 km winter journey is documented in an award-winning film titled The Frozen Road and you can learn more about it at Ben's website anotherhorizon.org. After Ben thawed out he continued cycling for another year and a half across Asia, Africa, and Europe. Ben Page, welcome to The Pursuit Zone.

Chatting with Greg Van Tighem (from Jasper, Alberta) on his 1,000 km bikepacking adventure along the Dempster Highway to Tuktoyaktuk.

James Pokiak is a harvester from Tuktoyaktuk, and Brenda Parlee teaches and researches at the University of Alberta. These two have worked together closely to bring together traditional knowledge (TK) and western scientific method of understanding the environment when it comes to wildlife management across the North.

Ernest Pokiak's father, Bertram Pokiak, was one of the influential Inuvialuit voices that worked to negotiate the Inuvialuit Final Agreement (IFA). Ernest's life has been framed by that agreement, which lays out the structures that govern wildlife management planning on Yukon's North Slope. He was there while his father worked to create it, he saw it signed, and he now serves as a member of the Wildlife Management Advisory council North Slope. In this podcast he talks about the years leading up to the IFA, and what it means for WMAC(NS) now.
