tbh, It's kind of like Stolen Valour, if she received the OOC because she was supposedly "Indigenous" then she should definitely have it rescinded as she's not Indigenous by birth. If she received it for her contribution to Canada's culture as a singer/songwriter, then yeah, she should be allowed to keep it because she's earned it that way. Lies will eventually get you in the end, gone are the days where you could cover up that kind of stuff, someone will find you out somehow... 😵‍💫
