I'm not sure that the term "Indian" in the department's name actually does refer to status Indians under the Indian Act. I think it may refer to the term "Indian" under the Canadian Constitution, which has been interpreted by the courts to include Inuit, and likely includes all other Aboriginal Peoples as well. That would be more in line with the department's mandate too. However, I don't have any specific source to support this. Does anyone know one way or another?

New Name

As of May 18, 2011, the department's name has changed to Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. More details are here Change to the Department's Name. Thank you. (AANDC AADNC (talk) 20:30, 17 August 2011 (UTC))[reply]

Content from Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada

On March 15, 2019, I added these words and phrases "Then Prime Minister John A. Macdonald established the Department of the Interior for the purpose of administering the Dominion Lands Act of 1872" to the article Timeline of First Nations history from the following section of this article Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada:

"The Northern Development part of the department has its origins in the Department of the Interior, a body created by then Prime Minister John A. Macdonald for the purpose of administering the Dominion Lands Act of 1872. When the Department of the Interior dissolved in 1936 (with the Natural Resources Acts transferring control over natural resources to the Prairie provinces), Indian Affairs fell under the purview of the Department of Mines and Resources. However, the need for social and health-care services in the North led to the establishment of the Northern Administration and Lands branch in 1951, which led to the creation of the Department of Northern Affairs and National Resources in 1953. This became the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development in 1966.^[1]^[2] Under the Federal Identity Program, the department is known as Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada."

I added this sentence "Then Prime Minister John A. Macdonald established the Department of the Interior for the purpose of administering the Dominion Lands Act of 1872." Unfortunately both the references for the paragraph in the Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada lead to dead urls.Oceanflynn (talk) 16:39, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Defunct department - Major overhaul or split of the page needed

As of July 15 2019, the Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada department was dissolved. While the page links to the two new split departments, the links themselves merely redirect to this page.

Consideration is required whether to incorporate the two new departments inside this page, which requires updating, or to split them off as new pages entirely.

The lead title of 'Indian ... Affairs' is very outdated however and already long defunct, that change will be made unless suggestions are presented. Sleath56 (talk) 23:51, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think splitting into two pages makes sense, they're completely separated ministries now and likely notable enough of their own ArmosNights (talk) 03:05, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
