Science in Canada's North: Who Speaks for Canada's Arctic?
Manage episode 251974849 series 2430020
The uncertain future of Canada's Arctic is a matter of pressing public concern, but most Canadians will never experience this changing landscape firsthand. Most of us must rely instead on information sent back to us by researchers, traditional knowledge holders, and documentarians. But whose stories are being told, and what kinds of images, data, and stories have the greatest impact on motivating public concern? How are scientific and traditional knowledge about Canada's North being integrated? Who speaks for Canada's Arctic: researchers, traditional inhabitants, polar bears, or politicians?
