On Monday October 5th there was an annual rally held at Queen's Park in Toronto, Ontario for Accountability of Children's Aid Societies. A bigger and louder crowd gathered in comparison with previous years however only the sattelite rally of a dozen people made the press (of course) We had several key speakers and the public were given a chance to speak during open mic. There was a woman named Maryna who stumbled across us while advocating for autism.. she posted a blog in regards to the rally and it's nice to see that another set of eyes has been opened.. I would call that a success on it's own!

Check out her blog entry (taken from http://www.tooautistic.com);

At Queen's Park - day 58
Some days I learn more than others. I have never suspected I would learn so much from Exposing Children's Aid Society riot. I am shocked. Stories I have heard were compelling.

Children are dying while under Children's Aid Society care. And life goes on. Documents remain confidential. Decisions are made behind close doors. Tax money keep pouring in. Media is not interested. Consistently 90 children dies a year, how many were abused? How many is being abused right is this moment? How many families unnecessarily broken? It is disturbing.

The reality of government and privately own agencies that are self-regulating were given license and money to act on government behalf but lack accountability and transparency, and are abusing their powers. are negligent and often corrupt is wide spread in Ontario. It is clear to me now. There is a scandal exploding from time to time, there is some scape goat found and punished (or not), and life goes on.

No media was present, but speeches were taped and will be posted on Youtube.

I will post links when I will get them.
