Canadian academic and Indigenous health expert Dr. Carrie Bourassa was revealed to not be Indigenous, despite her claims to be part of the Bear Clan of the Anishinaabe and Métis who goes by Morning Star Bear. She has now lost her government job and her professorship.

She also claims to be Tlingit, but her sister contradicted Bourassa's claims, saying that she, and the family, are actually white, without blood ties to Indigenous Canadians. Bourassa has claimed to be Indigenous for her entire career.

Bourassa's sister came forward after the CBC published an article by Geoff Leo slamming the professor for being Indigenous without having the DNA to back it up. Jody Burnett told the Daily Mail that her sister's "description of our family is inaccurate, not rooted in fact and moreover is irrelevant to the issue of whether or not [she] is Métis." A genealogical investigation showed that Bourassa is a descendant of Russians, Poles, and Czechoslovakians. Her ancestors in Canada were immigrant farmers, the Daily Mail reports.

Bourassa, who was put on leave as of Nov. 1 from her post as professor at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, hasn't backed up her claims with genealogical evidence. She's offered no blood lineage to prove that she is Métis, Anishnaabe or Tlingit. In her defense, she has claimed that she obtained membership into these communities not through blood ties, but through acceptance into those communities.
