For people who dont know the differences between Metis and Status - TopicsExpress



          

For people who dont know the differences between Metis and Status Indians I suggest you educate yourself...I am third generation treaty Indian that doesnt mean I am Metis. Metis people were first introduced because of the fur trade and Europeans who relied on the First Nations to help them. By incorporating Europeans into their kinship systems, Aboriginal people also expected to enjoy preferential trade terms and various forms of assistance, including access to post provisions in times of need. Over time the mixed-blood offspring of these marriages developed a unique syncretic identity and a distinctive sense of nationality as MÉTIS people. Treaty is completely different!
