Part III Dr Chris Harvey-Clark on Inuit traditions and Rights to hunt cetaceans
Wednesday, 7 January, 2026
In the final installment of Dr. Chris Harvey-Clark’s conversation with Blue fish Radio show host Lawrence Gunther, the two exchange stories concerning their respective times spent in Canada’s Arctic, and how foraging remains a central part of food security in the north. At 5:45 the topic of commercial fishing being introduced into the Arctic by Inuit fishers due to longer summers was discussed. At 8:03 the two explored whether growing support for whale rescue in eastern and western Canada might shift support away from Inuit hunting, similar to how public support has turned against the seal hunt. At 11:38 Lawrence asks Chris what will it take to find solutions that all B.C. Marine Recreational Fishery stakeholders can support? The conversation ends with Chris and Lawrence sharing humorous stories about David Suzuki’s love of fishing.
