This week on Unreserved: Indigenous people across Turtle Island conserving, preserving and caring for Mother Earth. You'll meet Rick Beaver, an ecologist who is working to protect the black oak savannah in his home community of Alderville First Nation. He uses an interesting tool - fire. We take you to the Manitoba wilderness where you'll meet Kenton Sangster, Blaze Head, Neepin Cook, Shaquiell Beardy and other Indigenous youth building and maintaining part of the Trans Canada Trail in Duck Mountain Provincial Park. They're participating in a six-week program that connects them with Indigenous knowledge keepers, gives them hands-on skills, and opens the door to a career outdoors. And in southwestern BC, Aq'am community leader Bonnie Harvey shares how Elders are sharing their knowledge about the land with young people and helping them become the next generation of "guardians".
