Every child deserves a champion!
Every child deserves a champion, and that’s why the Government of Canada needs to keep its promise to establish a federal Commission for Children and Youth. The role of the Commission would be to promote the best interests of children, hold the government accountable, and speak with or on behalf of children. Children’s Commissioners have been established in more than 60 countries including Sweden, the United Kingdom and New Zealand. It’s a proven strategy to improve results for children.
