I'm not sure where you're getting that from. We've never said that. If you're Métis, you're born Métis, you're always Métis.
What we're doing is registering our people. We have registries, so if you want to register as a citizen of the Métis nation, you're free to do that. If you don't, well, you're still Métis. You still have the language, if you have it. You still have the culture. You can still participate; it's just that you're not registered as a citizen of the Métis nation, and about the only thing that won't give you is the right to vote in the elections. Other than that, you're still Métis.
I don't know where the confusion is coming from.
