I don't have any overall solution to propose to Mr. Russell, but there's a partial solution. In the framework of the McIvor decision, in order to correct the situation that Mr. Nolett explained, that is the third generation of women affected by Bill C-31 who were born before April 17, 1985, the Canadian Bar Association proposed last week that paragraph C.2 be added to the bill. It would read as follows:
that person is a child born after September 4, 1951 and before April 17, 1985 of a parent entitled to be registered under section 6(1)(c.1).
I think this would improve the bill considerably in that it would allow those third-generation children who were born before April 17, 1985, to get the 6(1) status and not the 6(2) status, which they are entitled to.
