My Great Grandmother was 1/2 Chippewa but married white.Will BillC-3 allow me to get native status in Ontario?

-My greatgreat grandmother was 3/4 Chippewa and my greatgreatgrandfather was 1/2 Chippewa. Does that make my great grandmother 1/2 Chippewa?? My Greatgrandmother married a white man so would that then make my grandmother 1/4???

Would this make me1/16th or 1/32???No you are not eligible for native status under Bill C-3



For you to qualify under Bill C-3,



- your "grandmother" would have lost her status through marriage to a non-Indian

and

- one of your parents must have been registered, or was entitled to be registered, under sub-section 6(2) of the Indian Act. (Bill C-31)

--------------



Bill C-3 only applies to the grandchildren of women who lost their "Status" through marriage to a non-Indian and not to the great grandchildren of those women.
