This artist decolonizes climate conversations with stunning salmon beadwork CBC News North 2026-04-15 | This film opens with a creative imagining of a phone call to Carissa's grandmother, Linda Waugh, who died in 2012.

Produced by Creator Network for CBC North.A previous version of the video description said Waugh's grandmother died in 2017. In fact, she died in 2012.#Yukon #Whitehorse #Beading #indigenous #firstnation #art #artist #beadwork #traditionalart #salmon #WatsonLake #DawsonCity Consider Subscribing
