White Eagle is from the Cree tribe of Northern Alberta. He is also a Hollywood actor who starred in the Netflix series Hell on Wheels.

Like many other indigenous peoples from his part of Canada, he has been pushed front and center, smack into the middle of a heated debate between “industry and Greens” over energy development.

I had a chance to meet up with him this week while speaking in Calgary. We discussed both the dynamics of the energy debate as well as the challenges facing his people.

It was an eye-opener, to say the least.
