It's very nice!

Am I missing a way to view the original document or text for a selected treaty?

This map offers an alternative to the self-serving maps put out by different levels of government as well as the (very problematic) crowdsourced maps that some folks still use. Like any big project, there are bugs to work out and mistakes to fix so we'd appreciate your feedback.

I love this! The map looks great.

I do find the lock on the default scroll interface irritating, it's not entirely clear to me why that choice was made (ie. I can't use a two finger scroll to zoom on desktop)

If you could add this to the feedback page, we can try to have the designers fix it! https://treatymap.yellowheadinstitute.org/faqs/
