The AFNQL and the FNQLHSSC support Bill 113 because it does not attempt to codify, standardize or modify customary adoption, but rather ensures that effects of adoptions
carried out under customary laws are reflected within and for the purposes of provincial legislation. Bill 113 uses the practical mechanism of certification of customary adoptions by First Nations competent authorities and the issue of Quebec acts of birth. This will facilitate the recognition of effects of customary adoptions by Quebec (and federal) authorities.
