Some of the comments are fun. A few of them propose Buffy Ste. Marie to fill the post; she's only recently admitted that she was born in the US after decades of being honoured as a Canadian aboriginal performer; she was "adopted" by a Cree tribe in Saskatchewan as an adult and used that to obtain various awards and honours in this country.
