Métis means a person who self-identifies as Métis, is distinct from other Indigenous peoples, is of Historic Nation ancestry, and is accepted by the Métis Nation.”
What does it mean to be of Historic Métis Nation ancestry? One must have an ancestral connection to the historic Métis community. This is more than proving that one has an ever-so-great “Indian” ancestor. The requirement is for an ancestral connection to a “Métis” ancestor. Further, that Métis ancestor must have lived, used and occupied the Historic Métis Nation Homeland.
Borrowed from the document “Who are the Métis in the Métis National Council? By Jean Teillet
