  • Kaniehtiio, her mother Kahn-Tineta, and her older sister Waneek had inadvertently become symbolic figures of the 1990 Oka Crisis, a land dispute between Mohawk people and the town of Oka, Quebec.

  • In 2018, she had started a podcast titled Coffee With My Ma to share the experiences, adventures, and hardships of her mother Kahn-Tineta Horn who has spent most of her life leading civil movements, as an activist, for the rights and issues of indigenous people and Native American groups/tribes in Canada.
