There are places in Canada that look as though they were made for a post-apocalyptic story. The Saguenay Fjord is one of them.
POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION IN QUEBEC CITY
Post-Apocalyptic Quebec City: The Fortress at the Edge of the Water Most post-apocalyptic fiction treats language as a given. Quebec cannot. French and English coexist here under a formal framework that most of the rest of North America does not have. That means a collapse scenario in Quebec has to contend with a place where language was already a public fact, not a private choice. What happens...

POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
British Columbia After the End: Why the West Coast Makes Such a Powerful APOCALYPSE Setting British Columbia is almost unfairly well suited to post-apocalyptic fiction. Few places in Canada offer such a dramatic collision of environments in such a relatively small geographic area: a dense Pacific metropolis, enormous forests, mountain ranges, isolated islands, remote coastal communities...
URANIUM CITY
WHERE ATOMS COME HOME TO ROOST At the northern edge of Saskatchewan, on the north shore of Lake Athabasca, there is a community that could hardly be more different from the prairie cities most people associate with the province. Uranium City sits about 724 kilometres northwest of Prince Albert, only 48 kilometres south of the Saskatchewan–Northwest Territories border. There is no all-season road...
POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION IN ALBERTA
The Badlands, the Rockies, and the End of the World When imagining the end of the world in Canada, Alberta offers something remarkably few other provinces can match: almost every version of the apocalypse already exists within its borders. There are enormous modern cities, isolated farming communities, oil fields, industrial infrastructure, mountain wilderness, boreal forest, prairie, badlands...
POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION IN MANITOBA
Post-Apocalyptic Manitoba: Stories from the Red River to Flin Flon Manitoba is easy to overlook when people imagine the end of the world. Popular post-apocalyptic fiction tends to gravitate toward familiar places: abandoned American cities, irradiated deserts, ruined highways, drowned coastlines, or forests reclaiming the remains of civilization. Canada gets its share of attention, but even...
POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION IN NUNAVIK
Stories from Canada’s Arctic When people think of post-apocalyptic fiction, they often imagine ruined cities, abandoned highways, and crumbling skyscrapers. Canada’s Arctic offers something entirely different. Vast tundra, endless winter nights, isolated settlements, and a culture that has survived one of the harshest environments on Earth create a setting where the apocalypse feels less like the...
POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION IN PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
APOCALYPSE IN PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND Post-apocalyptic fiction in Prince Edward Island (PEI) shifts the genre away from continental scale collapse and toward something more intimate, constrained, and socially dense. On an island where geography already imposes limits on movement, resources, and expansion, the end of modern systems does not create vast wastelands so much as it intensifies...

Stéphane Roy is a lifelong reader and writer with a deep love for science fiction, apocalyptic worlds, and tightly constructed mysteries. This is his first novel. He lives in the Yukon with his dog and his aquarium, where long winters, silence, and wide, sometimes glowing, skies leave plenty of room for imagining the end of the world, and what might come after it. He is also waiting, with cautious optimism, for the aliens to finally reveal themselves and straighten us all out.
