    Jock, the question you pose is one that is very often in the media here. With current political sensitivity to Native issues any person who is not of Native Canadian ancestry who in any way appears to be posing as one is very quickly accused of cultural appropriation. It is not dissimilar to how some Scots feel about non-Scots wearing kilts.
