Concernant les modifications à la Loi sur les Indiens, Sherry Lewis, de l'Association des femmes autochtones du Canada, et la représentante de la British Columbia Native Women's Society ont clairement recommandé que la Loi sur les Indiens soit modifiée pour que les lois provinciales et territoriales relatives au partage des biens personnels et immobiliers matrimoniaux puissent être appliquées.
Number two is passing a separate act in order to give relief to some of the identified problems. Under the category of amendments to the Indian Act, I notice that when they made their presentation, Sherry Lewis, of the Native Women's Association of Canada, and another woman representing the British Columbia Native Women's Society clearly said that the Indian Act should be amended so that provincial and territorial laws with respect tothe division of both personal and real matrimonial property could apply.
