She couldn't have been born "on the wrong side of the blanket" by an American mother and also have been "scooped" at some point from Canada. There are lies upon lies here. And to have threatened her own brother with more lies about him being a "sexual predator" to shut him up on the question of her identity is reprehensible. The treatment of her birth family in Massachusetts was horrific. Having taken the place of a true indigenous person, having stolen music awards and honours, she should apologise and give the awards back.

It’s ridiculous to claim her as a biological Cree because she was accepted as an adult into a Cree family. I understand it’s a beautiful tradition…their law etc … and this means she is spiritually accepted into their family etc. but there is also biology, reality, truth and fact…and claiming she’s actually an Indigenous Canadian Cree dishonours the woman who gave birth to her.

It's super easy - do a DNA test. The family alleges she has lied and she has said many times that she was of many tribes. It is hard to believe her after so many stories. It's actually really heart breaking considering how many Native people did not get the stage because of her. The allegations come from other

The worst part of this to me is that the younger generations of the adoptive Piapot family may not realize yet that Buffy told Emile and Clara Piapot that she might be their missing (actually scooped) daughter. I don't think the Piapot family has seen the old, old interviews where people from that community say Buffy was at a pow wow on Manitoulin Island (nowhere near Piapot reserve) and saying she didn't know who her birth family was, which attracted the attention of people from Piapot reserve who knew of Emile's search for his actually missing daughter. Whoever Buffy met at that pow wow hooked her up with the Piapots who became convinced she was the missing daughter. If Buffy caused Clara and Emile Piapot to stop looking for their missing daughter, I think that's unconscionable and horrifying. It could be true that the Piapots would have always adopted Buffy based on her story about searching for a family, but if she tricked them and made them never find the scooped daughter... I think the Piapot family should know.

The niece and Buffys son did do a DNA test. They are related. Buffy is white. But it appears many Indigenous dont care anyways... I think its messed up because her Cree grandparents adopted her way back then because she said she was an Indigenous adoptee so she lied to them. Basically, Buffy has lived every pretendians dream; to claim an Indigenous identity that furthered her career so much so shes got a mansion in Hawaii.
Traditons are important but she was adopted into her Cree family based on lies.

i just watched the documentary and i found the saddest part the part where she accused her brother of molesting her after he tried to reach out to newspapers to clarify that she was not native (or i think now it was sesame street confirming if they were native?). I mean maybe it's true but after all the other stuff she said it's just hard to be sure if it was just another lie uttered to scare him off. And I mean if it is a lie, that really is a shitty thing that his daughter has to now wonder if her father was a pedophile. Reading his words, it does not line up with the kind of person he sounded like. I mean yeah she did good things for native people in terms of representation but if a person is doing that to their own family to preserve their lie, damn do you want that kind of person representing you?

Her biological family were good to her, from what her childhood videos show. It looks like she had a happy childhood. A much happier one than many of us had. And I read her grandfather was very musical, owned many instruments, and influenced her.
All of which gave her the background and emotional stability to launch a long, successful career. She could have used her good fortune and obvious talent to sing about indigenous people without pretending to be one.
Instead, she threatened her family into silence so they'd be too scared to expose her lie (including accusing her brother of molesting her, but only to threaten him into silence, she never mentioned it before that). Most are still too scared to talk. And now she exposes her dead mother (who can't speak anymore), saying she was born "on the wrong side of the blanket". These could be true. But they're coming after a whole bunch of lies.
Hey Buffy, if you hate your family that much, I'd love to have taken your place among them.

What I found most upsetting were details of her threats against family members who might call her out. Just sad.
