@Cassandra@ottawa.place @jerome@jasette.facil.services Yeah. There's some more details here: https://www.ipolitics.ca/2026/05/06/idlout-says-shes-moving-towards-supporting-the-liberal-governments-position-on-s-2/ The desired time delay and the claimed jurisdictional issues (by the Liberals) are countered by a lawyer named Ryan Beaton in the article. Further, I don't see any rationale for the second-generation cutoff. I feel the government's claimed jurisdictional issues (if in fact that is a thing, considering Beaton's counter argument) would theoretically apply regardless of whether there was a two generation cut off or not.

    @markgrieveson@mindly.social Thanks for the additional info. I'm always impressed with Juristes Power Law. "Beaton countered that since the government already conceded the rules are unconstitutional, the Indian Act registrar wouldn’t comply with laws that are not compliant with the Charter."
