The Indian Act.
Indian Removal Act
The Indian Removal Act of 1830 was significant as it authorized the forced relocation of Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States to designated "Indian Territory" west of the Mississippi River. This act led to the suffering and displacement of thousands of Native Americans, exemplified by the Trail of Tears, where many died during the arduous journey. It marked a critical moment in U.S. history, highlighting the government's policies of dispossession and the disregard for Native American rights and sovereignty. Ultimately, the act facilitated westward expansion and the growth of the United States at the expense of indigenous peoples.

The Indian Act of Canada was (still is) a law designed to integrate "Indians" in Canada into the mainstream economy and culture. Introduced in 1876, the act allowed the Canadian government almost complete control over how Indians lived and interacted with non-Indians. At the same time, it gave the government special responsibility for the health, education, and lands of much of the Indian population.
The Canadian Government did not enact the Indian Act, it was a British Colonial Act titled An Act for the Gradual Civilization of the Indian. Hence it is embedded in Canada and is almost impossible to repeal.
