Dr Ian Mosby, an historian of food, Indigenous health, and settler colonialism at Toronto Metropolitan University, provides a sobering historical tour of the Canadian landscape. His analysis examines how colonial programming was systematically used as a tool to dismantle Indigenous power and erode the cultural significance of traditional food systems. Then, Sik-e-Dakh’s Growcer Business Manager, Charlie Moraes, and Farm Manager, Clifford Capezzuto, take us on a tour of the community's food security project. Their work highlights how Gitxsan people are actively claiming their agency and replanting the seeds of community self-sufficiency through sustainable local agriculture.
