I would like to say that the community—our indigenous community, our first nations community—is the only one that should provide citizenship to our people. It should remain with the communities and the organizations that represent them and that are stood up by them. That should be the only place that happens.
There are many challenges with indigeneity—with the Métis community dealing with that right now. I'm not Métis myself, but I know that there are organizations that are defined as Métis throughout the Red River Valley and there are other ones that are not. The Métis are more of a mix of indigenous and European, which is not the original definition of Métis. That's being sorted out, I think, by their own community, but they should be the only ones who you ask.
Thank you.
