Kept on Wikipedia:David Bouchard
David Bouchard is Canadian author.
Bouchard was born and raised in Saskatchewan,[1] but is currently based out of Victoria, British Columbia and is a global public speaker in both French and English.[2] He has collaborated with Chris Kientz.
In his 2017 book Proud to Be Métis Bouchard writes that his grandfather had Ojibwe and Osage roots, but never spoke of them, which was not uncommon in that era, with the result that he is one of many Canadians of Metis background who grew up in families that did not speak about their Métis background.[3] In a book interview with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Bouchard said that "We struggle with whether or not we have the right to reclaim that heritage, of if in fact because we weren't raised in that environment, we can even do that."[3]
Bouchard claims to be of Métis descent[4][5] (more specifically, Ojibway, his Ojibway name is Zhiibaayaanakwad[6]). This claim of descent is not recognized by the British Columbia Metis Nation.[7]
