While family law has evolved to apply to certain minority groups, such as same-sex spouses, in the same way as it applies to the majority, this is not always the case. Specific communities are sometimes subject to different laws. The resource you’re reading has been updated to explain and give adequate recognition to the ways certain laws apply to specific communities, namely aboriginals and/or those living on reserves, immigrants and those who support or rely on them, and the LGBT community in some cases.
