Someone posted a link from an entry there to your entry on your LJ XD;; (It's a comics scans/discussion community.)
I have a friend who's First Nations but she's a Métis Sarcee (I've also met a Huron Métis) but then again, in shows they go "You're First Nations? Do you mind playing this character of this band granted you're of a different band all together?". Adam Beach is Salteaux, but he's played different First Nations like Mohawk.
I'm sure there's anthropological definitions for people of each Nation, but in most shows it seems like they take someone who looks like they could pass. But then again, not every fan of a show is an anthropologist. ;)
