Thank you for coming today and sharing with us your thoughts and recommendations.
Cindy, I've heard you tell us a couple of times that there are currently more aboriginal children in care in non-aboriginal homes than there ever were in residential schools. You also said that the reason for this in many instances has to do with neglect, and underpinning that is the question of poverty. Maybe you could expand a bit more on that for us. Is there anything more sinister going on here than simply the country trying to look after some very poor children?
