    I wonder what indicates Mary Ikwessens might’ve been Blackfoot? The various names given for her online (Ikwesens Binisi Okipikokive Pinesikijikokwe, “Marie” Pinesikijikokwe, formerly Montagnaise) are all Algonquin/Anishinaabemowin, and she was born in Algonquin territory, quite far from Blackfoot territory
