Powerful Change

In this episode of The Arctic Edge, we explore how climate change is impacting life, infrastructure, and opportunity across the North. Through conversations with Anne‑Raphaëlle Audouin, CEO of Nukik Corporation, Dr. Jackie Dawson, Canada Research Chair in the human and policy dimensions of climate change at the University of Ottawa, Michael Milton, Inuit youth researcher land-based knowledge keeper from Pond Inlet, and Canada’s Arctic Ambassador Virginia Mearns, we explore how climate change is affecting daily life and traditional practices, the growing role of Inuit knowledge in Arctic science, and the broader geopolitical implications of a rapidly changing North.

From the region’s continued reliance on diesel to the transformative potential of projects like the Kivalliq Hydro‑Fibre Link, the discussion underscores the need for sustained investment in reliable power, connectivity, and community-led solutions. Ultimately, the episode examines how innovation, collaboration, and long-term commitment can help build a more resilient, connected, and sustainable future for northern communities.
