About this listen

Episode two of our three-part mini-series on Canadian witchcraft examines what shaped witchcraft in the aftermath of the witch trials of New France. Rather than disappear, witchcraft went domestic, as it did in other countries where the old ways were forced to hide in plain site. Over time, as attitudes toward non-christian ways of thinking softened, the craft began to weave itself into the mainstream again, with some distinctly Canadian practices, such as Odyssian Wicca, emerging. Canada is also the home of the first Canadian church of witchcraft, The Wiccan Church of Canada, which helped to further push pagan practices out of the realm of hidden familial or cultural belief into accepted, publicly digestible, spiritual systems.
