Your induction into the tribes would be at the tribes’ discretion just like it was Canada’s discretion to let you in from Germany. Calling out “racism” for people just trying to protect what little they have left is the peak of absurdity.
I’m not sure what outrageous situation you’re imagining but you’re not going to walk into the park and be apprehended by a bunch of dudes in a loincloth who hold a skin color picker chart up to you and say “he’s too pink, throw him in the Wigwam to await questioning.”
I have literally been stopped by FN due to my skin colour
Example. Capilano Indian Reserve No. 5 in north vancouver. I like to tent camp there when I visit vancouver for concerts at the RV park. Years ago, when I asked about where the trail is to the river, they literally told me it’s for FN only with a straight face lol
I know what white privilege is btw and I guess it’s a taste of my own medicine.
Well there’s the issue, you weren’t on public land, you are on reserve land that indigenous have rights to. Reserve, as in Reserved for them, as a token for stealing all the rest.

So you got told that a reservation is restricted to the people who own the land and you immediately consider it a race issue?
I got a solution for you, pal. Go hiking in the mountains of Afghanistan. Take lots of pictures. They’ll treat you right.
I don’t live in afghanistan and I have never contributed to the country whatsoever. It’s different.
Neither do you live in Capilano Indian Reserve No. 5.
You’ll contribute with your tourist money on your way through and surely they will appreciate that, go out there and see the world.
