CBC says legendary musician Buffy Sainte-Marie’s birth certificate, other documents and details from family members contradict the singer's claim that she is Indigenous.
Sainte-Marie said Thursday ahead of the report that she doesn’t know who her birth parents are or where she’s from.CBC located her birth certificate, which says Sainte-Marie was born in 1941 in Stoneham, Mass., and the document lists the baby and parents as white.
CBC says Sainte-Marie’s marriage certificate, a life insurance policy and a United States census corroborate the information on the birth certificate. Family members in the U.S., including Sainte-Marie’s younger sister, told the public broadcaster that Sainte-Marie was not adopted and does not have Indigenous ancestry.
