What language do the Métis speak as their own dialect?

  1. Ojibwe
  2. Cree
  3. Inuktitut
  4. Michif

Why this is the correct answer

Michif is the traditional language of the Métis people, a unique blend primarily of Cree and French that developed from the mixing of Indigenous and European cultures in the fur trade era. It is one of Canada's Indigenous languages and reflects the Métis people's distinct cultural identity. Efforts are underway to revitalise Michif, as the number of fluent speakers has declined significantly.
