LEGAL SUIT AGAINST OTTAWA’S CHILD WELFARE SERVICES
“Our children keep being taken away from First Nation families in even greater numbers today than during the residential school era,” said Shawn Atleo of the Assembly of First Nations.
What’s happening? Experts estimate there are at least 27,000 aboriginal children who have been removed from their immediate families.
Legal action started in 2007, arguing child-welfare services on reserves received 22 per cent less funding than off-reserve services, even though the need was far greater. - The Canadian Press
VERY SIMILAR to what is currently going on in South Dakota and other states.
