What do you mean they?! /s. Personally I don’t like the term, but my status card does say “Indian and northern affairs”, but at least if you go to the government site it mentions how “Indian” is not how many indigenous people want to be referred to as. Why do they not change it? Good question, I’d assume legal stuff with the act or whatnot. But at least I prefer indigenous.

My guess as to why they don’t change it is COBOL
