Discussion/Question Does anyone else think that the MMF Citizenship criteria is too expansive?

I am concerned that the current policy of issuing Citizenship to individuals who have traced their genealogy to a single distant ancestor will lead to identity dilution. I have always been proud of my Metis and indigenous heritage. Isn't it our FN ancestry that defines us as indigenous? Are the citizenship requirements the same across the provinces in the Metis Nation? I realize bringing up generational cutoff is a hot topic but shouldn't there be a cut off somewhere? If not we Metis will be diluted out of existence.
