In this episode, host Peter Andrée revisits the roots of The Ecopolitics Podcast by examining the dynamics of Canadian environmental politics in the mid-2020s. Joined by Dr. Rosalind Warner (Okanagan College), Dr. Will Greaves (University of Victoria), and Dr. Peter Stoett (Ontario Tech University), the conversation explores themes from their new co-authored book, Canadian Ecopolitics (University of Toronto Press, 2025).

Together, they unpack how the politics of resource extraction, federalism, and settler colonialism continue to shape Canada’s environmental landscape. They also reflect on sources of hope, including the rise of civil society movements, Indigenous environmental leadership, and the growing recognition of the rights of nature. The guests offer candid insights on bridging activism and policymaking, listening across divides, and inspiring new generations to think long-term about sustainability in an era of planetary limits.
