The Arctic Edge

Hosted by Award-Winning Journalist and Broadcaster, Hannah Thibedeau, the podcast focuses on a series of engaging stories and insightful interviews and celebrates the unique identity of Nunavut and the broader Canadian North. It will explore the region’s social, economic, and environmental opportunities and responsibilities, highlighting the importance of sustainable change. The goal is to inspire a deeper appreciation for the North’s rich heritage and its immense potential.

As the Arctic region grows in strategic importance, not only for Canadians, but for many of our neighbours, it is vital that we come together as a nation to implement a comprehensive Arctic vision and strategy.

This podcast aims to not only spark curiosity and pride across Canada and beyond but also raise awareness for ways and opportunities to sustainably grow the Northern economy, support communities, create rewarding jobs, advance Indigenous reconciliation, and demonstrate strength and sovereignty in a rapidly changing world.

Nunavut is a land of immense potential, stunning landscapes, and rich cultural heritage. While the future holds great promise, challenges remain that need to be addressed. Through this podcast, we aim to foster meaningful discussions and ensure that Inuit voices are heard and respected.
