We have been trying to get rid of the Indian Act for years. The problem is too many parties with different ideas and what is good for one group is not good for another so nothing substancial happens.
"There is no clear consensus on a way forward on large-scale, comprehensive change to the Indian Act. Over the years, there have been several unsuccessful attempts to reform the Indian Act, due largely to opposition from First Nations who do not wish to enact reform through the Indian Act. Indeed, while the majority of First Nations view the Indian Act as archaic and paternalistic, there are some First Nations that would like to maintain some of its elements. Others would like to see it abolished altogether in favour of implementing their inherent right of self-government and treaties.
The most recent comprehensive amendments to the Indian Act were made in 1951 and subsequent incremental amendments have come about mainly as a result of court decisions and other quasi-judicial processes Footnote 1 .
More recently, sectoral initiatives, usually introduced and led by First Nations as optional alternatives to address some shortcomings of the Indian Act, have led to incremental reform under the Indian Act.
The following is a summary of attempts at comprehensive reform and/or repeal of the Indian Act, recent sectoral legislative arrangements with First Nations, reforms and proposed reforms of the Indian Act as well as proposed legislation to address legislative gaps within the Indian Act.

Yes I do. I might as well mention I used to have a girlfriend that I overlooked her native blood and I have friends that are native and have worked closely with a number of natives for years.

The solution is simple, install facial recognition software and cameras (already there) make a database of the lunatics and criminals then ban them from the system, arrest them if they are seen on the cameras. It might not be perfect, but it will reduce the number of incidents on subways and buses while giving justice to victims. Public transit is under surveillance, get used to it, or don't use it, it is now, the difference is facial recognition software and AI will be monitoring it, humans still make the final call, just like here when @sunni squashes someone!
