Dawn Dumont is the pen name of Dawn Marie Walker,[1] a Plains Cree writer, former lawyer,[2] comedian, former CEO[3] and journalist from the Okanese First Nation in Saskatchewan, Canada.

In 2022, she became the subject of nationwide attention when she was the subject of multiple criminal investigations across the United States and Canada after kidnapping her seven-year-old son and faking their death and disappearances.[4] Walker became further mired in controversy as her heavy involvement in FSIN's election fraud scandal came to light.[5]
