Position Paper on Bill S-3: An Act to amend the Indian Act (elimination of sex-based inequities in registration)

Critique of Canadian governments response to the Quebec Superior Court's ruling in Descheneaux c Canada (Procureur general). Argues that while the Bill may address the Indian Act's discriminatory clauses, it does not deal with issues such as citizenship, jurisdiction, and the status system as a whole.
