Abstract

There is growing involvement of Indigenous communities in renewable energy development across their traditional territories in what is now called Canada. Here, we explore Indigenous participation in large-scale “green” energy generation as a response to encroachment, displacement, and dispossession wrought by the extractivist orientation of contemporary settler capitalism.
