The Manitoba government’s website continues to identify Environment Minister Kevin Klein as Métis, even though the president of the Manitoba Métis Federation, a prominent Métis lawyer and Klein’s own brother all dispute the claim.

“The basis for stating Mr. Klein as Indigenous is because he has publicly identified himself as a Canadian Métis,” a spokesperson for Premier Heather Stefanson wrote in January.

    Klein says he belongs to the Painted Feather Woodland Métis. The entity is not recognized by the Manitoba Métis Federation or the Métis Nation of Ontario. It’s a for-profit company based out of a single-family residence near Bancroft, Ont., just over 250 kilometres northeast of Toronto.

    Just another pretendian. Stefanson backing it is just as scummy.

    How about white people just stop with this stupidity already.
