čukʷaa haʔuk Episode 6: Indigenous Law: IPCAs as Expression of Indigenous Governance

Episode 6 of čukʷaa haʔuk explores how Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs) are much more than land-use designations — they are expressions of Indigenous laws, governance, and responsibilities. Eli Enns explains that Indigenous Nations across the country hold their own sovereign legal traditions, rooted in Natural Law and passed down since time immemorial. When Nations create an IPCA, they are drawing on these deep legal foundations and exercising what he calls a “Grandmother’s authority”— the responsibility to protect future generations “with a firm but loving hand”. Eli also speaks to the realities many Indigenous Nations face when stepping into self-determination after generations of harm. This is why ceremony, healing, and cultural restoration are essential parts of this work. He explains that, “IPCAs are an expression of a Grandmother’s authority within a family.” But this work can be daunting for Indigenous leaders, Guardians, and other community members who are navigating and healing from the ongoing impacts of colonialism while also creating a safe, thriving future for future generations. At its heart, this episode is about reclaiming identity, rebuilding confidence, and carrying forward teachings to shape a hopeful future.
