What's your source for Ojibwe Y haplogroups?There's no way the R1 in North America unmixed natives is from a modern European source. No population is exclusively R1b in Europe (or R1 for that matter). France is barely majority R1b, so you should see lots of (for example) J2 Ojibwe, but you don't.
Bolnick et al (2006), "Asymmetric male and female genetic histories among Native Americans from Eastern North America" - Chippewa (n=97) had 51% R1-M173, 15% Q-M242, 4% C-M130, 2% DE-YAP, and 28% other (i.e. not C, DE, or P1-M45). So of what's not Q and C 65% is R1 (presumably mostly R1b) and 35% other (presumably I, J, E, etc). That seems unremarkable coming from intermarriage with Northwest European men.
