The #SixtiesScoop never truly ended. It just morphed into the current child welfare system. In Sask, more than 85% of children in care are Indigenous. I'm gonna keep saying that govt needs to flip the model to invest in families and reduce poverty. Call on your MLA today! ##familiesbelongtogether
'I’m tired of social services walking in our family’s life and just walking over us': A family in Saskatoon says it’s trying to stop the adoption of Indigenous children into a non-Indigenous system and bring the ones already in custody home.

...because the #SixtiesScoop never ended. There, fixed the caption.
The latest annual report from Alberta's child advocate on youth in the Alberta child welfare system shows the continuation of too many Indigenous youth being severely injured or dying while in the system, or shortly after leaving.
Advocate in Alberta says majority of kids dying in care are Indigenous
Alberta youth advocate Terri Pelton says 72 per cent of children who died in care were First Nation, Inuit or Métis.
