Axing of provincial child advocate role called dangerous, deplorable. More on the implications of losing Ontario's #ChildAdvocate here: thestar.com/news/gta/2018/11… via @torontostar @OntarioAdvocate
On Nov 20, we will celebrate National Child Day in honour of the 1989 United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. This year's theme is a child's right to an identity. #NCD2018 #righttoanidentity #nationalchildday #childrenhaverights @NatlChildDay #BuildingStrongFamilies

2/2 Yet now that @MacLeodLisa is Minister of Children, where is her voice in defending the most vulnerable children of the province? The decision to repeal the Provincial Child Advocate's Act is an egregious violation of children's rights and must be stopped @OntarioAdvocate
In the wake of the Ontario government's decision to close the office of the Ontario Child Advocate's office, it's important to recall @MacLeodLisa's statement in strong support of the advocate's office when she was in opposition. 1/2 ola.org/en/legislative-busin… … @OntarioAdvocate

The actions by the Ontario government to close the office of the Child Advocate must be stopped. Call the Premier and your MLA and speak up for kids! #OntarioAdvocate #YouHaveAVoice #childrenfirst @OntarioAdvocate @children1stca @childrenrights #onpoli
