Indigenous Canadian Erotic

Indigenous Canadians comprise approximately 5% of the Canadian population — approximately 1.8M+, including First Nations (~1M+, ~600+ recognized bands), Métis (~580,000+, descendants of First Nations / European admixed populations historically associated with the Red River Settlement / Manitoba and the Louis Riel-led 1869-1870 and 1885 resistance movements), plus Inuit (~70,000+, the historic Indigenous populations of the Canadian Arctic — Nunavut, Northwest Territories, Yukon, northern Quebec / Nunavik, northern Labrador / Nunatsiavut). The 2008 Indian Residential Schools Settlement plus the 2015 Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report documented continuing intergenerational trauma from the residential school system. The 2021 Kamloops Indian Residential School unmarked-graves discovery initiated broader public reckoning. Genome-wide studies document Indigenous Canadian populations as carrying source ancestry connected to the broader Native American Beringian-source populations approximately 15,000-20,000 years ago.
