So just to hammer that home for people:
- That’s what a freaking Indian status card is for – to show you’ve already proved you’re First Nations.
- First Nations people don’t put much stock in DNA/blood test stuff, as has come up in other ridiculous “prove you’re an Indian” disputes.
This is like saying, “well, sure you have a Canadian passport, and sure it’s legit, but prove you’re Canadian!”

So, if my mother and I have done DNA testing, which shows native heritage, and we have a document trail to name at least a dozen or so of those First Nations ancestors, would this mean I could immigrate to Canada via that route?
This is something worth pursuing, just in case.

You’d have to check the government web sites to be sure. I’ve never heard of anyone invoking a grandfather clause like that for Canadian citizenship

Its complicated… unless you’re registered as a member of a recognized band I don’t think that’ll work…
North American Indians are accorded the right to enter Canada only if they are registered on the Canadian Band Lists. An American Indian can obtain registered band status only if they can establish that their mother or father was a member of a Canadian band.

Give it a bit. Refugee status looks feasible in the not too distant future. (I wish I were joking. Muslim immigrants and refugees in your country are already making the trek across the border.)

Broken Social Scene would be a better choice, since they had a larger and more dynamic line-up. 
If you freeze at 0:09 you’ll see the back of Toronto’s City Hall. LOL
And later jelly fish in the jelly fish exhibit at the Aquarium!

Quebec; the original “Bachelorette”?

They’re not the original Matriarchs, but not too long after.
For the time, it was a rather progressive program. I’ve been to one of the campuses: they were given real courses on how to live in a frontier situation (how to cook game meat, make your own clothes, etc.), there were dances but only when they graduated could they get married, and they had equal say in whether or not to marry a particular suitor.
If you were the 4th daughter in the family or an 18-year-old widow with no children, it beat anything you were going to find back home in Paris at the time. At least you were an honorable wife and mother, and fulfilling the request of the king in the new world.

They did something like that here, 200 years later…

Yes, because deploying the military to the border of a friendly country is a good idea.
