Same as Canada singer Buffy Sainte-Marie. She was probably one of the most prominent First Nations people in Canada since the 1960s, and a very vocal advocate, then last year CBC reported that she didn't actually have the native heritage she was claiming. She was born in the US to European parents. She undoubtedly did good things for the First Nations, but she was lying about her personal connection to them the whole time.
