She was definitely claiming to have been born in Canada. I guess nobody dug deep enough until now.
She’s gone way past the option of ‘asking for permission’ … Now the lies are at the stage of ‘asking for forgiveness’
She’s psychotic … she asked for sympathy because she identified as an opposed person who was part of an oppressed culture … now she’s asking for sympathy because her privacy has been invaded.
Never once showed awareness, self reflection or humility … instead it’s just ignorance, arrogance and deflection. I guess you have to be when thousands and possibility millions are on the line.
