This woman’s name is Ashley Burnham, and she just got crowned as Miss Universe Canada, 2015. Not only is she the first Canadian delegate to win the competition, but she is also the first ever aboriginal to have won this title. Ashley is a gorgeous Enoch Cree woman—whose maiden name and most known name is Ashley Callingbull—from a reserve in central Alberta. Much of her parade outfits consisted of traditional First Nations wear, and she has posted pictures on Instragram of her attending pow-wows and dancing.
