basé sur le fait d'avoir ou non des enfants
Explanation:
Also, the Bill predicates a status change to s. 6(1)(c.1) from s. 6(2) status on whether or not an Aboriginal woman has children.

For the first time in the Indian Act's history, one's specific entitlement to Indian status will depend in part on whether one has children, and more specifically whether one has non-status Indian children. Status has always been determined based on one's parents. This new section would now put the focus on the status of one's children. This is absolutely ridiculous and completely unnecessary in order to achieve the goal of addressing the inequity between the descendants of Indian women versus Indian men.

Reference: parenting = having children (here at least)

Reference information:
"However, it is puzzling that under the proposed section 6(1)(c.1)(iv), one must have a child
before being eligible for registration under section 6(1)(c.1).7 In our view, a person should
have status according to ancestry, rather than whether that person has parented a child. The proposal in Bill C-3 would generate administrative inefficiencies, as a person eligible for registration under section 6(1)(c.1) will have to apply not only for registration of his or her child but also to change his or her own registration from section 6(2) to 6(1)(c.1) so the child may be registered. This is especially true where the section 6(1)(c.1) person has parented a child with a non-Indian."
