“Tetzan Biny: The Disappearance of Fish Lake (Part 1)” visits one of the last great water systems of the Chilcotin plateau, now threatened by gold and copper mining operations that will destroy the fish population of a vast region. “Tetzan Biny: The Disappearance of Fish Lake (Part 2)” is home to the Tsilhqot'in nation. Chief Joe Alphonse shares what is at stake if his people's traditional territory is destroyed and both old-fashioned and modern methods of fishery.

This series, “SAMAQAN”, shares their perspective on a most precious resource -- a resource to be protected, not a commodity to be exploited. Host Severn Cullis Suzuki explores the significance of water for Indigenous people and its interconnection to all life.
