“Pretendians” are people who falsely claim a native American or indigenous Canadian identity.
In 2024, a 59 year old woman who falsely claimed her daughters were adopted Inuit girls was sentenced to three years in a Canadian prison. Karima Manji lied about her daughters’ heritage to claim $150,000 from funds reserved for Inuit people. The judge sentenced her to more than the two years recommended by the prosecution, stating that Manji had “victimized the Inuit of Nunavut by stealing their identity.”
Should crimes involving cultural appropriation attract a heavier sentence?
