CBC News, August 4, 2021. Kelly Boutsalis of 'Point of View' magazine positively reviewed the film, writing that "Haida director Hatchs documentary is compelling and tells an important, and infuriating story of corporations and the government causing environmental destruction under the guise of bettering the economy, when its actually about political grandstanding. It also adds to the evidence of how First Nations people continue to be the stewards of the land, and how sometimes that brings them through the legal system, or to a protest site."Kelly Boutsalis, [https://povmagazine.com/tiff-2021-wochiigii-lo-end-of-peace-review/ "TIFF 2021: Wochiigii Io: End of Peace Review"].
