Calling for Support: Advocating for Indigenous Childrens Rights of Canada 

 The petition is a result of the Breach of Trust Report Saskatchewan. Many of the children in foster care or supervision care within Saskatchewan including Canada are First Nations Children. First Nation children have no voice, and they are being denied their cultural and traditional rights to remain within their mothers care, their community or appropriate care within their nation. The Child Welfare Act and legislation must be revised and First Nations People are requesting to Govern their own children. We want the paternalistic policies and programming to end - that control First Nations People of Canada. Child Welfare does not recognize our family protocols, traditions or culture and First Nations children are being denied their identity. The Inter-Provincial Policies and Child Welfare Act does not consider First Nations Children from out of province - their rights are ignored, denied, and unrecognized by Child Welfare. We seek support from the people to change the many layers of discrimination within the Child Welfare Act within provincial jurisdication and Federal legislation. We respectfully request jurisdiction of our First Nation children of Canada to stop the on-going cultural genocide by Child Welfare and Family Social Services Canada. Please support First Nations children and sign our petition.
