Description

Climate change is forcing us to confront fire in novel ways: in 2023, more than 15 million hectares of forest burned in Canada. Journalist John Vaillant speaks to Duncan about how the oil industry changed fire, Indigenous burning practices that could save us, and why the 2016 wildfires in Fort McMurray moved him to write his award-winning book, Fire Weather.


Courage Inc. is a podcast series hosted by Duncan Sinclair, Chair of Deloitte Canada and Chile, Board of Directors, and produced by The Walrus Lab.
