The Métis are a multi ancestral indigenous group whose homeland is in Canada and parts of the United States between the Great Lakes region and the Rocky Mountains. The Métis trace their descent to '''both Indigenous North Americans and European settlers (primarily French)'''. Not all people of mixed Indigenous and Settler descent are Métis, as the Métis are a '''distinct group of people with a distinct culture and language'''. Since the late 20th century, the Métis in Canada have been recognized as a distinct Indigenous people under the Constitution Act of 1982 and have a population of 587,545 as of 2016. | |||
