Singer-songwriter Buffy Sainte-Marie has responded to questions about her Indigenous ancestry that are expected to be raised in a CBC report airing this week.
“I have always struggled to answer questions about who I am,” Sainte-Marie, 82, said in a statement released Thursday. “Through that research what became clear, and what I’ve always been honest about, is that I don’t know where I’m from or who my birth parents were, and I will never know.”
Questions about Sainte-Marie’s Indigenous ancestry are expected to be central to an upcoming instalment of CBC’s news documentary show The Fifth Estate.
