"Being Indigenous isn’t about what you can get because you happen to have Red blood. It’s about something much deeper…and that meaning is something that is unique to each Métis person. Imagine how Riel would feel if he could see the situation of his people today? What would he say about how far (or not) we’ve come? Would he agree with those who say they know what it is to be Métis, and that others do not? It’s a passionate and heated conversation happening all over the Métis community today, and it’s one of fundamental importance. The vision of Louis Riel and all those who were by his side was for the unification and acknowledgement of all Métis people from coast to coast – Nowhere does he speak only of a vision for one place or one group of people. The science and history behind the matter clearly shows that not only are we all related, but much more closely than was previously imagined or acknowledged. The rest is up to us."
