The Indian Act

What is the Indian Act and why Canada still have it on the books? The Secret Life team looks at the roots of this complicated policy, which after 143 years is still embedded in Canadian identity, from the policy that led to the Act to how it still impacts Indigenous identities today.
About The Secret Life of Canada: The history podcast about the terrible, hilarious, dirty, and wonderful history of Canada. Leah-Simone Bowen and Falen Johnson aren’t historians; they’re just two curious people with a passion for little-known stories and underrated people. They bring humour and a healthy skepticism to this country’s founding narratives.
