I'm surprised how many people seem to be displeased with the CBC for doing the investigation. They seem to think she should be left alone.

I think she should be left alone.

I don't know what the truth is, nor do I care. Buffy has been an ambassador for the indigenous community for decades. She's done a lot for the community and as far as I'm aware, she's done a lot for the people she calls her family. I fail to see the good of dragging her down now at this point in her life. And besides, who knows the truth.

This is just more woke bullshit from the folks who run the CBC.

If it’s proven she’s a Pretendian then she should be stripped of every award she ever received and pay reparations.

A simple DNA swab would clear this up in moments. If she has nothing to hide then she shouldn’t be scared to do it.

Ain’t nobody got time for a 82 yr old lie.

 

[mandrill]

She looks pretty damn indigenous to me.

The way natives are treated, I would be suprised that someone would be deceptive about that. The native family says they adopted her. CBC has nothing better to do then go after a 82 year old woman.

It's actually part of a growing trend of non-indigenous people claimimg to have indigenous background.

Sans google, I can't name a single bsm song. Is she heavy metal or one of those annoying throat singers?
I can sing the "alphabet song" while gargling with listerine.

Listen. Sometimes your family tells you shit when your a kid and you believe it. They didn’t have DNA tests 40 years ago, and I’m not about to guess everyone’s motivations. It does not affect me in the slightest either way.

If the media cancels her, she will be left alone...

Alberta premier Danielle Smith has lied about having Cherokee and Ukrainian roots.

Danielle Smith says she has Cherokee roots, but there's no record of them

Danielle smith has claimed her family has Cherokee roots many times, but APTN was not able to find proof of Cherokee ancestry.

www.aptnnews.ca

Her Indigenous heritage questioned, was Danielle Smith also wrong about her Ukrainian great-grandfather’s journey?

The Alberta premier says her beliefs are influenced by her great-grandfather’s flight from communism after WWI. We take a closer look.

Considering this claim of hers dates back to the 60s, I don't really think you can think of it as part of a growing trend now.

Yes she does.

Remarkably so.

A great many Canadians are claiming metis heritage now in order to have access to various financial bennefits, education bennefits, loans etc. It's real problem as all you have to is claim it and you're good to go. But back in the 60s, no such luck.

 

[onomatopoeia]

I don't think there are many pure laine Québécois people with no Indigenous ancestors.

 

[mandrill]

Yes she does.

Remarkably so.

Unless she's Hispanic-American with indigenous heritage?

Cherokee is South East US in any event. Lots of "white" folk in GA and Carolina w Cherokee blood. Alberta?!?!?!?!?!..... More like Athabascan or Blackfoot heritage.
