Buffy Sainte Marie, a beloved Indigenous icon in Canada and the US, has been exposed for falsely claiming Indigenous identity. This carries massive implications across Indigenous communities, Canadians, and the United States.
The investigation uncovered that she was not in fact adopted into a caucasian family, but instead they are her actual birth parents.
This reveal was quite literally history being made, yet the consequences from it are far from positive.
On one hand, we have a beloved Canadian-Indigenous icon who has falsely claimed their Indigeneity. On the other, we have an entire community of Indigenous people in mourning, and deeply affected due to the implications that this situation has brought forth.
After watching the documentary, it was quite shocking for me, and I took some time to carefully gather my thoughts and feelings about it - in order to be as helpful to those of you who are affected by this - and those of you who are incredible allies constantly seeking ways to support in an authentic way, so stay tuned to the end where I’ll share how exactly you can help with this - because I promise you, this is GOING to ignite a wave of more complexities.

Indigenous communities have a very fixed budget by the government of canada to fund post-secondary students.
In most First Nations, these funds can’t support all students, and they don’t cover total tuition, nor do they cover living expenses and other expenses associated with going to post-secondary either.
The University of Waterloo in Ontario has created an innovative program never seen in *Ontario before that offers a Tuition Waiver for Eligible First Nations Students.
Melissa Ireland, the Director of Indigenous Relations at the University of Waterloo shared an amazing explanation of the Tuition Waiver for University Students at UW, it's amazing to hear what she had to say.

Land Acknowledgements in Canada are becoming increasingly popular amoungst public events, corporate gatherings.
Have you ever stopped to wonder why they started? and when declaring Indigenous Territorials lands at the beginning of gatherings became the standard low hanging fruit for Reconciliation efforts?
