Lovelace v Ontario
''Lovelace v Ontario'', () 1 S.C.R. 950, 2000 SCC 37, was the leading decision by the Supreme Court of Canada on section 15(2) of the Charter, which shields affirmative action programs from the equality requirement of section 15(1). The Court decided that distribution of casino profits to a select group of aboriginals is not discriminatory. The leading case on section 15(2) is now R. v. Kapp, 2008 SCC 41.
== Background ==
In a deal made in the early 1990s, the Ontario government gave control of reserve-based gaming activities to several First Nations bands. By 1996 the government enacted the First Nations Fund which restricting the distribution of the profits from the on-reserve casinos to First Nation bands registered under the Indian Act.
The petitioners were a group of non-registered First Nations bands who were status Indians. The claimed that they were discriminated against by the government under section 15(1) of the Charter.
The Court of Appeal for Ontario ruled against the First Nations bands. The Court ruled that an exception under section 15(2) could be made for any discrimination claims as the purpose of the law was to improve the social and economic conditions of the registered bands.
