Native American music

As discussed on the Wikipedia page for 'Native American music'... First Nation music simply is NOT Native American music. The countries are different and the cultures in the two countries indigenous people are often as different as Chinese is to Russian culture.

Therefore it's better to have a blank page - or no page at all (if I knew how) - than a redirect that is absolutely incorrect and deemed offensive (by me). Othellobloke (talk) 08:06, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of deleting the highly offensive redirect, I've decided to actually fill out this entry with helpful information for people who want to learn about Indigenous music from CANADA... and NOT the United States. Othellobloke (talk) 20:50, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Buffy

Want to introduce the topic here first, but Buffy's mentions here need to be removed or rephrased to acknowledge her identity fraud. She is neither Canadian nor Indigenous. A family within the Piapot Cree First Nation adopted her; however, the First Nation instelf has not adopted her. Yuchitown (talk) 16:02, 31 October 2023 (UTC)Yuchitown[reply]
