The Assembly of Aboriginal Peoples of Saskatchewan (AAPS) is an Indigenous organization representing Indigenous people seeking to regain their status under Bill C-31. On June 28, 1985, the Government of Canada passed Bill C-31, modifying the Indian Act to include those previous excluded under certain conditions. Many of these eligible Indigenous people had no ties to reserves and were left without representation. Formed on October 4, 1988, AAPS provides representation to these people by removing impediments to their registration, encouraging self government, and obtaining a land base for their membership.
