Guess what? The race shifters have struck again --> #JustinTrudeau is "Eastern métis"! 🤨🤔

The Feds just met with this org to encourage "reconciliation" - and now they indigenize the Prime Minister through a French-woman-magically-turned-Indigenous. Follow the thread for more!
The story (see below) explains that #JustinTrudeau has Acadian ancestry through the Savoie patronym/line. François Savoie married Catherine Lejeune in present-day Nova Scotia in 1655. #raceshifting #selfindigenization

There's active Acadian genealogy community seeking to identify Indigenous women in 1600s for purpose of constructing "Acadian-métis" identity today. Catherine Lejeune, a woman born in France, has fallen victim to the #selfindigenization movement through no fault of her own.
On many online forums, C. Lejeune has been magically remade into an Indigenous woman, the granddaughter of famous Mi'kmaw grand chief Membertou. There's ZERO proof for this connection, just a lot of desire to #selfindigenize.

In fact, since at least mid-80s, Acadian historians and genealogists agree that Catherine Lejeune was French, and that one cannot claim to have Indigenous ancestry through the Savoie line due to her, as the org in NS did re: #JustinTrudeau yesterday.

acadian.org/history/acadia…
I have reviewed membership records of the 3 largest self-identified "métis" organizations in Québec - with combined 31,000+ members - and all 3 use Catherine Lejeune as an "Indigenous" root ancestor as per their membership policy. #raceshifting #selfindigenization
a- Communauté métisse du Domaine-du-Roy et de la Segneurie de Mingan
b- Communauté métisse autochtone de Maniwaki
c- Métis Nation of the Rising Sun

Their policies ensure that around 30% of members have ZERO Indigenous ancestry + about 80% are counting on ancestor from 1600s.
Ironically, #JustinTrudeau could join any one of the major "Québec métis" orgs in QC or "Acadian-métis" orgs in NS or NB, so those who are now claiming that he's "Eastern métis" are right! Just don't take it to mean that he's Indigenous. #raceshifting #selfindigenization
I'm also a Savoie like #JustinTrudeau - my direct ancestor was Simon's sister (see story above): they fled the Deportation to QC with their mother in 1750s. The family was torn apart, their father was deported to Georgia and 2 of their siblings died on the journey to QC.
None of that makes #JustinTrudeau or I "Indigenous" or "Métis" today. There's an active movement in NB/NS today to indigenize Acadians that openly opposes Mi'kmaw self-determination. Check out the skyrocketing increase in number of people identifying as "Métis" in census:

ICYMI - Maisonneuve magazine is publishing an article that I wrote about the anti-Indigenous/white supremacist origins of 2 largest "Québec métis" organizations in its next issue, out @ newsstands TOMORROW! Follow along for a sneak peek 😉

More evidence of the fraudulent conduct by "Eastern métis" individuals and organizations. Check out the membership card for the Communauté Wik Wam Sun Oté, the "treaty partner" of the Council of the First Métis People of Canada [sic].
That same organization in NB had previously signed a "treaty" with the Métis Federation of Canada [sic]. They then hosted the first assembly of the Council of First Métis People of Canada [sic] in summer 2016.
Their member walked into a gas bar in a Mi'kmaw community in NS earlier today and presented their card, claiming it was a "status" card that granted them a tax exemption. Staff recognized it as a fraudulent card for a number of reasons:

Remember when a company tested 2 dogs as having "Indigenous" DNA? Well, it appears that the company, Accu-metrics (Viaguard), has now stopped offering its "First Nation, Metis & Native American DNA Testing Service." #raceshifting #selfindigenization

newsinteractives.cbc.ca/longform/dna-a…
But not before its service facilitated the race shifting process. Here's an example of a new "métis" org in QC that was created on the strength of their bogus DNA testing. They have a partnership agreement. #raceshifting #selfindigenization

nationnews.ca/metis-movement…
A few months later, the "chief" of that organization traveled to Paris with a range of other "chiefs" to file an official complaint with the UN about the federal government's non-recognition of their claims to Indigenous identity and rights.

About a year ago, @adamgaudry and I published an article that analyzed 2 organizations facilitating race shifting: "White Settler Revisionism and Making Métis Everywhere." Follow the thread for access to an important data source.

I've since found an English-language translation of the brief that the (now) Métis Nation of the Rising Sun [sic] presented back in 2007 to the Bouchard-Taylor Commission arguing that there are no distinct Indigenous peoples in QC, only the "métis"! (4 pages of 6 attached).
The brief, presented to a public audience in Sherbrooke, starts by saying: "We present you this document as the only direct descendants of the First Peoples in QC, [...] whose members have been killed by microbial shock." #biologicalracism #raceshifting #selfindigenization

"Mixed, but not Métis" - a very courageous op-ed (in French) by @rosellam critiquing the recent construction of "Acadian-métis" identity.

Follow the thread for a few choice excerpts, translated into English!

acadienouvelle.com/mon-opinion/20…
"I want to talk to you about Acadians who embarrass me. And for once, it's not about elected officials. I mean the Acadians who claim to be Métis out of the blue because they just found out that there might be benefits in doing so."
"Most have known all their lives that they may have an Aboriginal ancestor, but it's a legal decision favourable to Aboriginal peoples or a rumour of benefits that has made them proud of this ancestor, no matter how remote or uncertain they may be [re: that ancestor's identity]."

More remarkable efforts by Métis Nation of the Rising Sun [sic], which was founded by 9 hunters in 2006 to oppose a Mi'kmaw territorial project. 2 weeks ago in court they claimed that their "Métis Nation" has existed for over 10,000 years!!

lechodelabaie.ca/paspeyas-autoc…
A few choice excerpts in translation: "The [Métis Nation of the Rising Sun] was incorporated on June 16, 2006, but the Gaspésie [and region] Métis community was born 10,000 years ago."
Their Grand-Chief [sic] continues: "The Nation [sic] will submit treaties, including contracts demonstrating Aboriginal rights over its vast territory, rights to hunt, to fish ... that have never been surrendered, territory reserved [for] all natural descendants to infinity."
