🇨🇦 Senate unanimously passes bill to eliminate Indian Act's 2nd-generation cut-off
Bill S-2 now goes before the House of Commons
Senators voted 63-0 in favour of the motion, with eight abstentions.
Subsection 6(2) or the second-generation cut-off refers to a rule in the Indian Act where children are not eligible for Indian status after two generations of one non-status parent. It was added to the act in 1985.#Indigenous #FirstNations #Legal #IndianAct #BillS2

"Of the four, it was narrowed down to pretendians or Indigenous identity fraudsters. We wanted to go with Indigenous identity fraudster because the definition of fraud is “wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain.” We wanted to call a fraudster a fraudster."

I woke up with the number 1876 on my mind. I think I was doing math in my dream. Then again, I just looked it up and it was the year the Indian Act was implemented in Canada: some of the most racist legislature in the world, and it’s still implemented today. #dream #DreamLog #IndianAct https://www.ictinc.ca/blog/21-things-you-may-not-have-known-about-the-indian-act

Legislation to amend #IndianAct continues #discrimination
What we learn from this story:
• Clauses in Bill C-38 will not allow victims of Cda’s #assimilation policies to seek reparations
• “Two-parent rule continues Canada’s program of forced assimilation.” —Lori Idlout, MP
• Cda discrimination “underscores the sense of colonial entitlement.” –Jenny Kwan, MP
• Bill allows individuals, specifically #Métis, to remove names from Indian register and band list. -

Bill C-38 is being debated in the House of Commons. It’s the latest amendment to the Indian Act that attempts to remove discrimination baked into that legislation.
Bill C-38 deals with Indian status; who had it, who lost it, and who gets to have it back, and how that status will be transmitted to descendants.
Some members of Parliament say this new remedy again falls short.

Today in 1876, the Indian Act is introduced. The Act dismantles traditional systems of Indigenous governance. The Act also requires Status Indigenous to give up their status to vote (until 1960). Indigenous women are also barred from voting in band council elections.
