Urban aboriginal women in British Columbia and the impacts of the matrimonial real property regime / [by] Karen Abbott. : R2-271/2003E
This report examines the roles played by Aboriginal women in their societies before colonization and the changes after contact with Europeans. After explaining the study’s research methodology, the report describes its findings in five areas: participant background/demographics; participants’ awareness of the existing real property rules; the transition for Aboriginal women who leave their homes on a reserve due to marital breakdown; life in the city; and participants’ recommendations. Appendices contain the survey used and demographic data.
