Environmental racism is a systemic issue in Canada. There's a long history of marginalized communities suffering at the hands of industry, all authorized by the Crown. In June this year, the Environmental Justice Act received Royal Assent and became law in Canada.

A new report explores why environmental racism exists, how it’s woven into the fabric of the country, and some critical points on how to meaningfully address it. We speak with the report’s author, Levin Chamberlain.
