Cuts by the province of Ontario have already started at the Children’s Aid Society and it’s because of this and other evidence, I would suggest more are coming.

The family court system and CAS are dysfunctional and the evidence is clear.

In a case I advised on, an alleged child abuser asked the court for visitation of his daughter. This case was sanctioned by CAS and paid for by Legal Aid.

CAS told him that he could have supervised visits.

When CAS was informed that their was a no contact order in effect, CAS ran for the hills never to be heard from again, as they were in fact attempting to breach a court order.

 This case lasted more than three years in family court and in the end he lost.

What a waste of taxpayer’s money.

20 Things Worth Knowing About Toronto’s Crack-Smoking Mayor, Rob Ford

Many Americans awoke this morning to discover that (a) the mayor of Toronto is a guy named Rob Ford, and (b) Rob Ford smokes crack. Gawker reported last night that a cell-phone video clearly showing Ford lighting up a crack pipe — which was supposedly filmed within the last six months, while he was mayor — was being shopped around for six figures. Gawker's John Cook saw the video in person with his own two eyes, as did two reporters from the Toronto Star. Ford's lawyer calls the video "false and defamatory" and asks, hilariously,  “How can you indicate what the person is actually doing or smoking?”

Doug Ford, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford’s brother, sold hashish for several years in the 1980s.
Another brother, Randy, was also involved in the drug trade and was once charged in relation to a drug-related kidnapping.
Their sister, Kathy, has been the victim of drug-related gun violence. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/toronto/globe-investigation-the-ford-familys-history-with-drug-dealing/article12153014/?page=all

Globe investigation: The Ford family’s history with drug dealing

HEALTH: Report says too many children in Ontario have poor eating habits, don't get enough excercise

Making parents feel guilty about their children's eating and exercise habits isn't likely to produce healthier kids, a Queen's University researcher says.

A report by the Heart and Stroke Foundation recently released says too many of Ontario's children have poor eating habits and don't get enough exercise, but Dr. Elaine Power is concerned that reports like this one focus too heavily on the role of parents and not enough on societal factors, such as poverty, the role of schools and food marketing.

The Heart and Stroke Foundation study asked 1,189 Ontario parents of children between six and 12 years of age about their children's diet and exercise habits. The study concluded that many of the province's children are living an unhealthy childhood due to a lack of physical activity and poor eating habits.

The study found, for example, that only one in eight Ontario children (13%) eats the recommended five or more servings of fruit and vegetables each day. It found that 24%ate junk food three or more times a week.

It compared the findings to a 1998 national survey and concluded that there had been little improvement in children's eating habits since then, and even some regression.

"The report should serve as a wakeup call that the health of our children is not making the grade," said Dr. Andrew Pipe, a Queen's grad and spokesman for the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

The report warns that this generation of children will live shorter lives than their parents because they have a higher risk of developing such life-threatening illnesses as high blood pressure, Type 2 diabetes and heart disease.

A major problem is poverty, she says. Power notes that the Heart and Stroke Foundation study did a good job of pointing out that some children don't eat healthy foods because their parents can't afford them.

"Fruit and vegetables are often the first things to go," she says, "If you're looking to keep your kid from getting hungry, lettuce really doesn't cut it. Fruit and vegetables don't fill people up in the way that bread and potatoes and starches do."

If Ontarians want their children to be more healthy, the focus should be not on parents, but on what society can do to bring this about, says Power. "How, as a society, can we do a better job of producing healthier, happier kids in the future?"

"The problem is, that would cost money and some people would object on that basis. You're talking about raising taxes."

Where Does All The Money GO

Township staff to DSSAB: Is that your final answer?


Answers to questions raised by Seguin Township’s representatives with the district’s social service provider have been delivered to Seguin council, and the councillors are not happy with the answers provided.


In April, council sent along questions about the Parry Sound District Social Service Administration Board’s (DSSAB) long-term financial plan after the board and the township disagreed over what should be done with provincially uploaded social service money.


Seguin’s representatives to the board, Coun. Bruce Gibbon and Coun. Susan Adams, had asked questions about the new administration building, which will hold all of the DSSAB’s operations under one roof. They wanted to know what was the approved budget for the project, and what is the current estimated cost to complete it. In response, the DSSAB did not provide specific answers, but did mention the amount of the awarded tender almost $3.5 million.


Seguin asked how is it possible that the investment budgeted for the new facility is twice that invested in public housing between 2006 and 2010, and they wanted to see a “synopsis of the rationale supporting the investment.”


In its response to Seguin, DSSAB said the business case for the $2.3 million project was done informally with the board during an in-camera session and no such case analysis was provided.


In a letter addressed to Adams and Gibbons, Patterson said the 2009 levy to District of Parry Sound municipalities incorporates the influx of provincial dollars for an overall reduction in the local cost of the Ontario Disability Support Program, as well as increases to Ontario Works, Child Care, and Social Housing programs and capital repairs.

“The board is charged with the task of adequately planning for anticipated expenditures under various provincial acts and regulations as well as responding to concerns and risks of our municipal environment,” she wrote.
