- Indian_Act abstract "The Indian Act (\"An Act respecting Indians\"), is a Canadian statute that concerns registered Indians, their bands, and the system of Indian reserves. First passed in 1876 and still in force with amendments, it is the primary document which governs how the Canadian state interacts with the 614 First Nation bands in Canada and their members. Throughout its long history the Act has been an ongoing source of controversy and has been interpreted in many ways by both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Canadians. The legislation has been amended many times, including \"over twenty major changes\" made by 2002.The act is very wide-ranging in scope, covering governance, land use, healthcare, education, and more on Indian reserves. Notably, the original Indian Act does two things affecting all Aboriginal people: It says how reserves and bands can operate. The act sets out rules for governing Indian reserves, defines how bands can be created and spells out the powers of \"band councils\". Bands do not have to have reserve lands to operate under the act. It defines who is, and who is not recognized as an \"Indian\". The act defines a number of types of Indian people who are not recognized as \"registered\" or \"status\" Indians and who are therefore denied membership in bands.The act's existence is necessitated by the fact that First Nations (historically called \"Indians\") relate differently to the state because of inherited legal arrangements such as the Royal Proclamation of 1763 and various treaties, and because Canada's constitution specifically assigns Native issues to the federal, rather than provincial, governments, by the terms of Section 91(24) of the Constitution Act, 1867. The Indian Act replaces any laws on the topic passed by a local legislature before a province joined Canadian Confederation, creating a definitive national policy on the subject. The Indian Act is not a treaty; it is Canada's legal response to the treaties. Nevertheless, its unilateral nature, imposed on indigenous peoples by the Canadian government in contrast to the treaties, is itself a source of discontent among Native peoples in Canada.".
