A message from Dakota:

My name is Dakota Nelson, I am Musgamagw Dzawada’enuxw from Kingcome Inlet and Tahltan from Telegraph Creek. I have recently finished the first year of the JD/JID Joint Degree Program in Canadian Common Law and Indigenous Legal Orders at the University of Victoria.

I will be joining the Treaty team as a Treaty Legal Intern to help support work with the Constitution and other agreements.

Gilakas’la,
Dakota Nelson
