Journalist Ossie Michelin provides a quick overview of the use of the terms Indigenous, First Nations, Inuit, Métis, and Aboriginal and encourages people to choose the term to “be as specific as possible.” One take away from this video is that Inuit means people; thus as Michelin says, “Don’t say Inuit people because that’s redundant.”
