Indian Act Second reading of Bill S-2. The bill aims to amend the Indian Act to correct inequities from enfranchisement, restoring status for thousands. While the Liberal government seeks to pass the original bill and then consult on the second-generation cut-off rule, opposition parties like the Conservatives and NDP support Senate amendments to address both issues immediately, arguing further consultation is a delay tactic given decades of advocacy against discrimination. 11100 words, 1 hour in 2 segments: 1 2.
