Welcome. We’re glad you are here.

At Dig Historical our focus is on understanding and honouring treaty relationships between Indigenous Nations and settler governments across Turtle Island/Canada/the United States. We do not presume to speak for Indigenous nations, but rather offer a holistic view of the treaty relationship with a focus on state obligations and Indigenous rights. Understanding these agreements requires investigating the historical contexts of their creation.

With over twenty years of experience researching and writing about settler-Indigenous relations, Dig Historical Consulting combines academic scholarship and pedagogical expertise to explain the nature of treaty agreements and outline their historical and contemporary implications. We specialize in a deep understanding of archival research and consistent engagement with academic literature to craft historical reports, provide expert testimony, and offer workshops that bring a classroom experience to wherever you are.
