In February, I was invited to the writer’s room for a TV series called Diggstown on CBC Gem. The show is a Canadian legal drama series. The writing team was putting together an episode about Indian Day Schools and invited me as an “Indigenous expert” to consult on the script. It was a great experience!
The episode aired on October 26, 2022: Donald Kitpu Christmas (season 4, episode 3). Apparently, I was also an inspiration for the character “Cheyenne Claire”, an “Indigenous expert” called to the stand during the trial. The actors, writers, cast and crew did an excellent job on this episode! I really enjoyed it.
