Haida Gwaii Episode 6: Windy Bay’s Legacy Pole – How Protest Became Preservation

In this episode, we talk about the environmental and cultural transformation sparked by the 1985 Haida protests at Windy Bay. Our conversation with Reg Max Wesley takes us deep into the roots of the movement that protected Haida lands from destructive logging and forever changed how this part of the world is seen.


The peaceful approach—led by elders with courage and honor—resulted in the creation of Gwaii Haanas and the symbolic raising of the Legacy Pole in 2013. Reg shares how traditional carvers, ceremonial practices, and communal storytelling are woven into the legacy of that pole, and what it means for future generations. We reflect on what it’s like to visit such a sacred place and how this living history continues to educate and inspire all who travel here.
