Yeah, it's not offensive, but technically "First Nations" is a subgroup; Inuit and Métis being the other two.
How can the Métis be "first" anything? They're the product of intermarriage between native Canadians and European traders (mostly the French).
Yes, that's why First Nations refers to the folks directly decended from Native Canadians (culturally anyway), and not the Métis/Inuit.
Ad. Yes, the Inuit are Native Canadian but they prefer Inuit, and they're very culturally distinct. (Not that the array of first nations cultures aren't)
Ah. I'd misunderstood what you meant. I thought you were including the Métis among the First Nations. My bad.
