Letter to the Editor: Caring for our kids
July 15, 2013
I think it is wonderful to see the system coming to recognize that First Nations have the right to care for their people, both on and off reserve land.
It has been a long time in the making to get this far; keep going.
Unity for all the bands in Ontario is needed. First Nations should have the agreement in place to allow Native family service throughout Ontario.
Catchment area is a non-Native word and has no place in Ontario. I speak from experience, as in “Sorry we can’t help because we don’t service your area.”
This must stop.
