It doesn’t work that way. You must be a bloodline descendent, you can’t marry into it. Not sure what half truths he told to get that card but it sounds very fishy. Anyways, just because you hold a Métis card does not mean that you can be a Métis harvester. Your descendants must be from an Alberta Métis community, pre 1900s. I hold a Métis card but cannot be a harvester because my ancestral family is from Manitoba. Wish I could hunt more as didn’t kill a damn thing with my bow last hunting season. Oh well, carry on as usual.
