Climate Change

Climate Change and Community-Driven Climate Action Through in Manitoba, Minnesota and Northwestern Ontario

We tackle climate change through creative resilience, arts-based climate entrepreneurship, and community-led adaptation. Rooted in Northwestern Ontario, Manitoba, and Minnesota, our programs blend arts-based climate action, sustainable agriculture, and Indigenous knowledge to build local capacity and drive innovation.

Through projects like Our People, Our Climate and Towards a Framework for Northern Food Systems Innovation, we empower youth and communities to respond to climate impacts with storytelling, regenerative farming, and climate-smart solutions. Fusing culture, sustainability, and entrepreneurship, we’re creating bold, place-based strategies for a more resilient future.

Jukebox In Exile is the new country music album from Flin Flon singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba. Written during and after the 2025 Flin Flon wildfire evacuation, the album draws influence from country music legends including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings and George Jones. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and the charting track "Outlaws Meditation," Jukebox In Exile showcases Trubiak's signature songwriting while celebrating small-town life, northern Canadian culture, queer country music and the enduring spirit of Flin Flon. The album is available now on major music streaming platforms.
Manitoba's own C.C. Trubiak's new album "Jukebox in Exile" dropped on June 5! Check it out today!
