A focused population profile of Canadian Métis, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Canadian Métis is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Canadian Métis with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Canadian Métis.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Canadian Métis is Nisga'a (European-Mixed). Other nearby references include Potawatomi (European-Mixed), Blackfoot (European-Mixed), Iroquois (European-Mixed), and Tsuut'ina (European-Mixed). This gives the Canadian Métis profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Canadian Métis average. It should be read as a model of deep ancestry components, while the closest-match table is the better guide to which modern populations are most similar in G25 space.
The heatmap gives the Canadian Métis profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Canadian Métis average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Nisga'a (European-Mixed). Other nearby references include Potawatomi (European-Mixed), Blackfoot (European-Mixed), Iroquois (European-Mixed), and Tsuut'ina (European-Mixed).
In the current modern G25 reference set, Nisga'a (European-Mixed) is the closest listed match to the Canadian Métis average after removing Canadian Métis itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Canadian Métis G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
