S01E04 Canada
Episode Overview
Bruce journeys to northern Canada to immerse himself in the Caribou people's culture and observe their yearly spring hunt. The Gwitchin tribe has engaged in caribou hunting in the Arctic for millennia, but this age-old practice faces challenges due to oil exploration. Afterward, Bruce travels south to Alberta's tar sands, where the world's second-largest oil reserves are located, to learn how Indigenous communities adapt to the encroachment of the oil industry on their lands.
