Yesterday, I rose in the Senate to mark 🧸#BearWitnessDay.

Observed each year on May 10, this national day of action honours Jordan River Anderson and his family, and calls for the implementation of #JordansPrinciple.

Bear Witness Day calls on us to confront these failures, honour Canada’s commitments to reconciliation, and invest in building up children, families, and communities rather than abandoning them to harmful systems of institutionalization. 3/3

Today is #BearWitnessDay, an important date in the timeline of #JordansPrinciple at the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal. Bear Witness Day honours Jordan River Anderson, and is an opportunity to come together to ensure Jordan’s Principle is fully implemented. https://ow.ly/2Fez50YRfE9

On December 12, 2007, The House of Commons passed Motion-296 in support of Jordan's Principle. It's been 17 years, yet data shows the number of unprocessed requests has doubled countrywide in just a year with 140,000 backlogged requests. #ActionNow #JordansPrinciple

Jordan’s Principle isn’t a ‘program’—it’s a legal duty

Jordan’s Principle isn’t a ‘program’—it’s a legal duty
If the federal government publishes tight service standards, merges duplicative forms, pays on time, and reports honestly, families and front-line clinicians will feel the difference within weeks.

Liberals say they support reconciliation.

But when Indigenous kids ask for air, they lawyer up.
This is policy, not history.

Further on #jordansprinciple ...listen to Jordan River Anderson's father.
Kids in need are suffering because the program was so mismanaged and those that shouldn't have got assistance for frivolous things, did.

Jordan’s Principle is a child-first legal rule ensuring Indigenous kids get public services without delay, regardless of jurisdiction.

It was upheld by the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal in 2016 after gov’t discrimination was proven.

7/10 The crisis is deepening. About 450 full- and part-time education assistant positions across Alberta will be lost due to changes in federal Jordan's Principle funding.

Fewer supports for more challenging behaviors creates a downward spiral.

@mark-carney.bsky.social This is not truth and reconciliation. This is another colonial decision. For once, do the right thing. Your hollow words, mean nothing. #jordansprinciple #indigenousrights #colonialpolicies #canpoli #indigenousjustice

Just a reminder that today (May 10) is #bearwitnessday in honour of #jordansprinciple . This little guy has been with me since the day I was born several decades ago, missing his eyes and nose but still keen to see equity and fairness for First Nations kids.
