•Bill C-92: An Act respecting Indigenous, youth and families is one of the first federal legislation on this subject of Child and Family Services. The Act is the first statute to recognize inherent Indigenous jurisdiction (S. 35). This includes “status, ‘non-status” children, living on or off reserve.

•To be compliant with Bill C-92, Colonial Children’s Aids Society’s MUST demonstrate HOW and WHEN they provided notice to the child’s (International Indigenous Children and Family Services Governing Board, parent(s) and/or care providers as applicable,  or document with evidence WHY it was not safe or possible to do so.

Jurisdiction s. 8(a): What this law recognizes is that Indigenous peoples have the inherent right to jurisdiction (authority) over their own child and family services. 

Which means Indigenous groups may have their own legislation.
