Whatever happens with membership is not part of th
is case, so there's absolutely no reason to consult with anyone on whether or
not the Indian Act should continue to discriminate against women in different ways, or women and their descendants in different w
ays. If you want to consult on membership of particular bands and what they need and what they want, that's perfectly fine; but on the issue of status, which only concerns the r
...[+++]elationship between the government and each individual Indian, there's nothing to consult.
Nous ne nous préoccupons pas, dans ce cas, de tout ce qui concerne l'appartenance à une bande, ce qui signifie qu'il n'y a absolument aucune raison de consulter qui que ce soit pour déterminer si la Loi sur les Indiens devrait continuer à permettre la discrimination, de quelque façon que ce soit, envers les femmes, ou envers les femmes et leurs descendants.
