Book Launch: Bad Indians Book Club by Patty Krawec

CEDAR and partners are co-hosting a book launch in Fredericton on November 26: Bad Indians Book Club by Patty Krawec.

Drawing on conversations with readers and authors, Bad Indians Book Club delves into writing about history, science, and gender, and into memoirs and fiction, all by “Bad Indians” and those like them, whose refusal of the dominant narrative of the wemitigoozhiwag (European settlers) opens up new possibilities for identity and existence.

CEDAR submission to the NB Power Review

The CEDAR project submitted its critique of NB Power to the NB Power Review team. CEDAR researchers believe NB Power needs a complete overhaul. Key messages:

  • The energy system – climate system connection is missing
  • There is a strong case against nuclear power as a climate-friendly supply option
  • Investing in new fossil fuel infrastructure is “moral and economic madness”
  • Global energy systems are transitioning to renewable energy, and NB Power needs to do the same
  • Renewable energy investments are already signalling the way forward in New Brunswick
  • Customers expect a public electrical utility they can trust; they are getting the opposite.
  • NB Power is frozen in the past. The utility needs a fundamental change of direction.
