VIDEO: Protesting Children’s Aid work
CCAS PROTEST
Maureen Fennelly holds a banner at a protest Tuesday aimed at the Catholic Childrens Aid Society of Hamilton on the corner of King Street and Sanford Avenue. Tina Todd said her group, Justice for Children, believes the children’s aid societies bring people into the child welfare system that shouldn’t be there, and the societies keep cases open too long. The group also believes children’s aid workers are not being held accountable and are violating people’s rights. A bill by Monique Taylor which has passed first reading would bring the societies under the scrutiny of the Ontario ombudsman.
