"The Gua Sha Treatment (刮痧)"
Synopsis: Released in 2001, a full length movie based on a true event of persecution of a Chinese family in the U.S.A. (archived on 16 May 2013 click for more information)
...
The Plot
Grandfather Xu comes from China to visit the family of his son, Datong Xu (Tony Leung), in St. Louis. While there, he gives his grandson, Dennis Xu (Dennis Zhu), a treatment of Gua Sha to treat a slight fever (being unable to read English labels of medicine). The authorities, however, mistake the harmless traditional Chinese medical treatment for child abuse due to the obvious marks left on Dennis' back. The family goes through hell when the child is taken away by the child protection agency. Meanwhile, Grandfather Xu leaves America because he finds that the living environment is really not suitable for him, as he feels that a simple, harmless treatment like Gua Sha, which is so common in China, is treated as child abuse in America. Furthermore, he cannot converse in English. An American friend of the father, Benton Davis (Joe Erker), tries gua sha and proves that the treatment leaves painful-looking marks that are not actually painful or harmful at all. Finally, the father is able to return home and the family is reunited.

In this TV news video from WPDF 25 Florida, a mother called Jessica Laboy was jailed after she refused to disclose the location of her children to protect them from state removal. Her children were removed two years ago without reason and received bruises and possibly sexual abuse while in government "care". The mother believed that this new removal is a reprisal from the child protection agency after she sued for the abuse on her children. Information about this lawsuit can be found in this link.
Two of her friends who supported her position also have their children removed. One received a blatant threat from Jessica's social worker that "If you don't leave now, you are going to have problems with your kids."
To those who do not believe that some social workers are so abusive, this video is eye-opening. We salute those oppressed parents who have the courage to come forward to expose these hideous legalized crimes against humanity. Their acceptance of such huge personal risk to their children to bring forth awareness deserves respect from the public.

20060901 CTV News "Filthy foster home in Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada"
Synopsis: dirty foster homes, best interests of children, MCFD cover up, (click for more information)
...
This graphic display of an unhygienic foster home shows only the tip of an iceberg among all other physical and mental abuses suffered by removed children. Statistics provided in MCFD’s web site confirm that children in “care” of MCFD die of accident, homicide and suicide. This does not support the proposition of many judges that foster homes are a known safe environment. It is very doubtful whether or not foster homes are safer than their own homes.
Above all, like all other news coverages, this video does not address the serious problem of abuse of authority that oppresses parents and destroys families where law recognizes to be the preferred environment for the care and upbringing of children [read guiding principle 2(b) of CFCSA].

News footage from NBC and CBS News discovered that kids and toddlers are being given powerful psychotropic drugs with strong negative side effects in order to control them. Instead of providing human care, they are drugging these children because it is cheaper (in the short term, but not the long term) and because it is very lucrative for the pharmaceutical companies.

News footage covering the forced adoption story of Tammy and her mother based on false allegations by the secretive Family Courts and inept Social Services. They told how lives are ruined by such oppressive government activity. When Tammy reached age 17, she tracked her mother in the internet and re-united with her.
In the internet era, it is becoming more difficult for government to continue such notorious activities against its citizens without being uncovered. It is also easier for adopted children and parents who lost their children under the pretext of "child protection" to find their loved one.

Foster children have one thing in common: massive overdosed with psychiatric drugs. They were administrated to keep them under control, to reduce their resistance and to keep them under control. This young girl used to be skinny but had gained weight after being drugged. She also shared her terrible experience of being sexually assaulted by her foster parent. But nobody believes her.

The testimony of a removed male child wanting to go home badly. Psychiatrist used drugs on him attempting to mitigate his sadness and depression from being taken away from his family.
Because of the fact that this boy was removed from his parents, he has the depression problem. This is what child protection all about. Does this serve the best interests of children?

20070603 slide show youTube video "The Stolen Generation"
Synopsis: Australian aboriginals were removed by government, a chronological history of events, ...
The Stolen Generation (also known as the Lost Generation) refers to the generation of Australian aboriginals compulsively removed from their families and held for cultural assimilation. This is a mirror image of the notorious residential schools in Canada where Native Indians children faced a similar fate. Many of these children were abused and lost their cultural identity. The person who posted this video warned Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers that it may contain images of deceased persons.

20070629 private recording by parents posted in youTube "Three young girls held against their will by MCFD
"
Synopsis: wills of children not heard, supervised visit of removed children, "child protection" social workers tactics (click for more information)
...
The girls in the video alleged that social workers and the police lie to separate the siblings, prevent them from returning to their parents and express their sufferings in foster homes. After their parents aired this video on the internet, social worker canceled their visitation right. Obviously, this was done to retaliate unveiling their torts and abuse of power. Audio recording of the phone conversation with their social worker notifying the cancellation of parent's visitation right was included in the second half of this video.
CFCSA contains no provision authorizing social workers to cancel access (both phone or visitation) of removed children at will. Save and except antagonizing the social worker who has the absolute power to arbitrarily holding their children hostage, what the parents did does not jeopardize the safety of their children or their well being at all. Such abuse of power frequently happens to distressed parents with children removed. Their hidden objectives are:
- to beat parents into submission;
- to deter parents and children from unveiling the true color of various key players/beneficiaries in the "child protection" industry;
- to induce conflicts among family members to blame one another for causing the loss of opportunity of seeing their children and therefore enhance MCFD's chance of winning custody by breaking the family through a classic divide and conquer tactic;
- to provoke parents into anger to prove social worker's child safety concerns.
Guiding principle 2 (d) in CFCSA stipulates that the child's views should be taken into account when decisions relating to a child are made. These children were not in duress when making this video. Why are their views not even allowed to be heard? This is just one of the many infringements in the spirit of law when "child protection" is carried out.
It is noteworthy to remark that judges seldom allow children to express their views in child protection hearings, despite CFCSA explicitly states that their views should be taken into account. Even in rare occasions that judges do hear the views of children (usually older children in a private conference), they do not necessarily have to disclose the views of children, let alone making a decision that respects such views. This brings the administration of justice into disrepute.

20070713 self-made private recording posted in youTube "Child Protection: what a laugh
"
Synopsis: response of an oppressed father, lies, warning not to go public (click for more information)
...
Message from a father with children removed and his family destroyed alleging corruption, fabrication of evidence to justify child removal and urging pro-family approach in child protection activities. He wanted to draw public attention to the structural corruption in the child protection system.
In the first week of April 2008, this video message attracted the comments of a social worker (YouTube ID ramonnrobles) citing unspecified reason(s) for removing children and confidentiality as an excuse of unable to discuss specific situations. Confidentiality is often used by MCFD to block the transparency of their operations and keep families and the public in the dark. Confidentiality of the family involved is seldom addressed in child protection hearings as most judges allow all relevant evidence be admissible. MCFD has the power to access the medical records of each family members without their knowledge, let alone their consent. Do they really respect confidentiality and privacy?

20070716 CNN News footage "Stephen Baskerville Discusses Deadbeat Dad Pizza Box Issue"
Synopsis: heated debate between Professor Stephen Baskerville and Cynthia Brown (Child Enforcement Worker in Ohio), how bureaucrat reacts when challenged, (archived on November 30, 2009, click for more information) ...
This is an interesting debate with an outspoken member of a special interest group. Professor Baskerville, an advocate of parent rights, spoke strongly against expansion of government power using children as a means to plunder their parents. Although this is not a debate on "child protection" per se in a Canadian setting, it is insightful to see how bureaucrats respond when their controversial activities are questioned or challenged. Their product is doubt. Typically, their strategy is:
-
use some extreme cases, usually rare, to justify their unsparing, heavy-handed, sledgehammer approach;
-
elaborate on the positive aspects of their activities as a ploy to generate doubt on those who do not understand the true nature of their business;
-
pass on the responsibility to another breed of bureaucrats not present in the debate when their deficiencies, wrongdoings or incompetence are challenged (for example, put the blame of the judiciary when no sooner hearing date can be scheduled when they insist on an unreasonably lengthy court time or use mediation to stall the court process);
-
shift the focus of the criticism to something irrelevant;
-
make themselves look like a victim of provocative and radical actions from some extreme groups;
-
accuse those who criticize them as angry, unreasonable, biased and failed to comprehend the merit of their activities.
Despite the sharp and accurate insight of Professor Baskerville, the CNN hostess appeared to have some doubt on his seemingly radical position. Even an academician has a credibility problem. One can imagine that when an oppressed parent from a grass root social class goes public to confront a member from special interest groups, he or she will soon be perceived as a disgruntled person trying to get even and will soon lose credibility.

20071014 private recording posted in youTube "Social Worker Jane Clark says MCFD is above the law
"
Synopsis: a grandmother spoke on the attitude of her social worker, lawlessness operations, (click for more information)
...
Despite the arrogance of this statement and whether or not Ms. Clark indeed had ever said this, this statement precisely reflects the power of social workers in British Columbia and in many English-speaking nations with similar "child protection" law. Even if a judge returns a child to parents, social workers may remove the child again immediately after the return with or without reason or fresh evidence. This is allowed by CFCSA and does not amount to contempt of court. Social workers can play god without fear of any consequence. How can accountability be established in such structure?

...
Sharing from Mrs. Colleen Deroache (a Registered Nurse) who had first hand experience with "child protection" social workers. They provided a thorough layman legal background on CFCSA. As long as the government still have absolute power to remove children and CFCSA is still being enforced at its current mode, it does not matter how well parents know their legal rights. They have very little right in child protection hearings.

20071115 WLKY News Channel Target 32 Investigates (Kentucky, U.S.A.) news footage " Mass CPS corruption Part 1" " Mass CPS corruption Part 2"
Synopsis: closed child protection court, no hearing within 72 hours as required by law, video footage of meeting with social worker, suspicious conduct of SW, fabrication of evidence, abuse of power, retaliation on parents who fight back, whistle-blowing Pat Moore was fired and won a settlement, SW are pressured to boost adoption so that the state can get federal bonus, (click for more information)
...
At the time this news was aired, 21 states in the U.S. still had closed child protection court. Kentucky was one of them. This news footage from an American TV station aired Linda Roberts case, revealing corruption from child protection service to family court judiciary. Even some social workers found the behavior of their colleague in this case suspicious.
Part 2 is a must watch video. Whistle-blowing social workers told the true nature of this industry. To those who find our allegations hard to believe, hear what the insiders said.
Similar problems in the "child protection" industry are not remote. Thousands of Canadian families are suffering the same across the country each year. Taxpayers pay hundreds of thousands on each child removed, many unnecessarily, from their families. It is happening right in your backyard. Can you still turn a blind eye? Do you want to wait until your loved ones fall prey to such corruption before you will act?

The State attempted but failed to stop WLKY TV News, Louisville in court to air the corruption in the "child protection" service (CPS). There is video footage covering "child protection" hearing. The only proof of education neglect was an allegation from a social worker. It took the judge 17 minutes to rule in favor of CPS with only one witness, the case worker, against parents. When parents appealed, children from extended families were removed as retaliation.
In Part 2, Ann Reid, a mother with children removed, learned that the shrink used by CPS to testify against her in hearing had been charged with 9 counts of practicing as psychologist without a license. "CPS does not protect." she said. Challon Holt, a father with children removed, said that CPS workers seldom take fathers seriously and often do not return phone calls from them.
Mary Ellen Nolt from the local CPS said that social workers must be able to prove and swear before a judge that the child is in imminent risk of death, serious injury and sexual abuse. Empirical evidence presented right after tells a very different picture.
Independent research suggested that social workers are often hostile and set unrealistic goals for many parents to meet for the purpose of facilitating premature removal. Dr. Terry Brooks of KY Youth Advocates concluded that state-sponsored child removal is financially motivated to obtain federal reimbursement based upon the rate of adoption, which was doubled in the years examined by this advocacy.
Another disturbing discovery is the preferential treatment of Caucasian children over minority children and adoption is based on political favoritism. Tom Emberton, Jr., Social Services Commissioner denied all allegations against CPS and claimed that there is no sense to spend $39 million in adoption to get $1 million of federal subsidy. He conveniently omitted to tell the audience that the $39 million is also tax dollars that enable CPS to seek a larger budget next year.

-
Part 1 and Part 2 of this video footage comprises of talks from judges, lawyers, professors, authors, advocates and victims on the corruption in the "child protection" industry. Lawyers who speak against or expose the operation are debarred or blacklisted.
In view of these testimonies, whether there is corruption is no longer a question. It is irrefutable. This video was made in 2007. Why nothing has been done? Are these special interest groups untouchable?

Her charge was contributing to the delinquency of a minor. All she did was putting a video in My Space depicting her 2-year old child smoking a cigarette and speaking profane language.
The crime she committed was serious enough that she was not allowed out of jail on bond.

20071218 a slide show production on the adoption industry in the United Kingdom "Forced Adoption - UK selling children for money"
Synopsis: child protection and adoption (archived on July 24, 2010, click for more information) ...
The British government gives millions of tax dollars to local authorities who adopt the most children as bonus. Parents are having children "adopted" for financial reasons. This is unethical and immoral - it amounts to selling children.
This slide show contains several guidelines useful to parents under MCFD scrutiny, which are noteworthy to reiterate:
-
Never contact social services for service or advice.
- Never believe a word they say and always insist they put their promises in writing.
- Never, never, never sign any documents they present to you, even if they say "you have to!" Social workers rely on bluff. In reality, they have no power and no right to threaten you or give you order of any kind!
- Never, never agree to let your children go into foster care (especially if they say that it is temporary).
- Never answer questions at case meetings, in court, or when you are being assessed by so-called "experts". Try indeed to answer "yes" or "no" whenever possible. Never explain or elaborate.
- Protect yourself against social workers barging uninvited into your home by fitting a small chain inside your front door. To break the chain which would be a "forced entry" and a criminal offence.
The last one does not work in reality as CP SW often threaten to scoop up children at school if parents don't allow them inside their residence. Most parents will bend.

20071218 private recording by a father posted in youTube "Child Protection Reform"
Synopsis: father alleged destruction of family using false and fabricated information, warned not to go public, (click for more information)
...
A man who called himself David from Texas accused the local child protection authority of destroying his family using false allegations and fabrications. He claimed that families are warned not to go to the media and this problem is epidemic nationwide.
We believe his allegations. This problem is epidemic worldwide. Many parents who approached us for help also alleged the same complaints. Why are there so many parents having similar complaints in countries with similar child protection law? The root problem is the government authority to remove children and there is no accountability in the key players in the "child protection" industry. Real child protection does not require such absolute power.

200801xx a 2-part ABC News footages covering " Death of a foster child Dontel Jeffers, Dorchester, Massachusetts, U.S.A. (Part 1)" " Death of a foster child Dontel Jeffers, Dorchester, U.S.A. (Part 2)"
Synopsis: death of foster child, unsolved murder of children in government care, foster child chronically sexually abused before death, (archived on December 18, 2009, click for more information) ...
4-year old Dontel Jeffers was killed in foster home. Despite his aunt Phillipa Jeffers and cousin Vincent James are willing and able to care for him, Department of Social Services (DSS) dumped him in a foster home and he was founded dead 10 days later.
For obvious public relation reason, DSS Commissioner Harry Jeffers offered apology and condolence. His lip service is of course useless to beguile the family from the grief of a loss so overwhelming.
It is noteworthy to remark that:
- many families scrutinized by "child protection" agency are visible minorities from the glass root social class;
- many murders in foster home remain unsolved for a long time despite that evidence and conclusions are not difficult to find in most cases;
- most children killed in foster homes are of younger age who are unable to protect themselves against perpetrators;
- bureaucrats are seldom held responsible, civilly or criminally, for atrocities of this nature.

20080118 a Center for Judicial Excellence 2-part documentary production "Family Court Crisis - Our Children at Risk Part 1" "Family Court Crisis - Our Children at Risk Part 2"
Synopsis: failure of family courts, money is the cause of corruption, "professional lies" from junk science used in custody hearings, (click for more information)
...
This is a trailer of a 42-minute full length documentary. It exposes nightmare in family courts across America. Children are routinely being placed by the family court in the sole custody of their abusive parents. This does not discuss state-sponsored child removal per se, but expounds similar problems in family courts. Marital breakdowns are being exploited for financial benefit using children as pawns. This film exposes a few outrageous cases from Marin County, California. Like many oppressed parents in state-sponsored child removal cases, it must be seen and heard to be believed.
Part 1 introduces the cases and looks into Parental Alienation Syndrome (or PAS, the reigning paradigm in family courts); plus we take a look at the role of court-appointed mediators, therapists & evaluators in a broken system run amok that is damaging the lives of far too many children. Only acting together in numbers can we bring about real change.
Part 2 looks at the big business and money motives behind the family law machine. It urges state legislators and others to fix Calif's courts, and it proposes a solution that would protect children. This film is a call to action if you care about this grave injustice that must be seen to be believed.
Oppressed parents (including professionals like nurse) and associations in the United States address the following issues are also a concern in the "child protection" industry:
-
"child protection" social workers lying, making serious mistakes (liking placing removed children in the hands of perpetrators) and subsequent cover-up;
- court fails to provide impartial adjudication, accepting arguments from bogus science like a psychological theory known as "parental alienation syndrome" ("junk science" as Robert J. Cleek of Marin Family Law Attorney called it in Part 1) that has been expunged in criminal law as invalid legal defence;
- special interest groups milking money from parents and taxpayers;
- above all, children's best interested are not being looked after and families destroyed.
Their and ours conclusions are drawn from independent observations of facts and information based on credible testimonies and logically deductions. We further concur that this is a national and international problem that requires immediate attention (as asserted near the end of Part 1). Be mindful that Canada and the United States practice similar "child protection" law. "Child protection" social workers are given tremendous amount of power, especially in removing children from their families. They have little accountability. There is no disciplinary provision in law to control them, let alone punishing them, should they act outside their authority. The problem that we attempt to rectify will arrive naturally in this type of setting.
Barbara Kauffman (Marin Family Law Attorney) hit the nail right on the head by saying:
"No one will fix it until the people who are making policies decide to fix it. And they are not going to decide to fix it until pressure is brought on them to fix it. That pressure has to come from the public, from the press, from elected officials, from the oversight entities. It has to come from law enforcement. That's responsible government. That's the duty of our elected officials to ensure that the citizens are protected."
Unfortunately, politicians at all levels of governments are more concerned in raising their own salaries and getting more votes. Most of them find this issue, however serious it is, absurd and politically distasteful. It is now up to the people whose interests are seriously jeopardized to make the next move.

20080209 private video on youTube "CAS Corruption"
Synopsis: a collection of video footage related to the "child protection" industry depicting corruption, abuse of authority, (click for more information)
...
CAS stands for Child Aid Society in Ontario, Canada. Instead of using a government ministry to do the child removal business, the Ontario government has dedicated child removal authority to non-profit Child Aid Society. CAS carries the same authority as all child protection agencies in English-speaking nations. Needless to say, there is structural corruption. This proves that it is the absolute authority to remove children from their families that leads to corruption, not who exercise it.

Professor Baskerville of Howard University spoke on the nature of the "child protection" industry. At the onset, he correctly pointed out that "child protection" law tears apart families and destroys personal life and the social fabric of a country. This industry is an impersonal system of government growth, originates from radical ideology, run by self-serving bureaucrats whose primarily interest is to ensure their own job security.
Family court is a specialized court that deals with divorce and "child protection" matters. Bureaucratic police (civilian servants in plain clothes who call themselves "child protection" social workers) has tremendous power over parents. They can enter homes without warrant, demand whatever information they see fit, order parents to do whatever they decide under the treat of child removal. Family court has its own legal rules that circumvent due process of law based on fair procedure and good evidence. For example, hearsay is explicitly allowed in many "child protection" statutes, including CFCSA in British Columbia.
His discoveries in this appalling industry are identical to ours in many way.

20080510 CHCH News Live @ 5:30 news footage "Children's Aid Society Oversight"
Synopsis: interviews with politician, law professor, foster parent on Children Aid Society abuse of authority, (click for more information)
...
In this TV news video from CHCH News Live @ 5:30, it discussed the long oversight on children aid society in Ontario when a cancer-stricken boy in Hamilton was forced to receive treatment. His parents do not want their son to receive cancer treatment to avoid unbearable side effect. As required by law, the hospital notified the children aid society. Social workers were involved and the father was forcibly removed from the hospital and cancer treatment was administered against the will of the patient boy. This boy now suffers both the cancer treatment side effect and separation from the love and care of his family.
Alleging lack of accountability in children aid society, Peter Kormos, NDP House Leader (Ontario) advocated that the Ontario government should directly deliver "child protection services" and shut down privately run children aid society. Mr. Kormos failed to realize that there is no accountability in government delivered "child protection services" in British Columbia as well. State-sponsored child removal harms more than helps in most cases. "Child protection" law in most English-speaking nations are redundant, oppressive, inhumane and counter productive. As long as some one, bureaucrats or staff of non-profit societies alike, have the authority to remove children, it is difficult to establish accountability. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Notorious residential schools (where some native children were killed and sexually abused) were possible because government has the authority to remove children from their parents.

This news footage is no longer available on the CBC archives.
The importance of what this Native woman described is the deliberate murder at a residential school, something that has never gone to any court in Canada and yet something that has been recounted by hundreds of residential school survivors. The lawyers won't go there as it implicates the Crown, corruption and this legalized crime against humanity.

20080710 CBS 42 Investigates news footage "Child Protective Service (CPS) Invading Homes, Removing Children Arbitrarily, Registering Innocent Parents in the State Central Child Abuser Registry"
Synopsis: experience of the Gates family when 13 of their children were removed after school blew the whistle, (click for more information)
...
In this TV news video from CBS 42 Investigates, the Gates family in Texas suffered abuse from child protection service by having all their children removed. The removal happened in 2000. The school of one of the Gates' 13 children called Child Protective Service (CPS) and reported that the child was disciplined by pinning a food wrapper on his shirt after caught stealing food at home.
Despite court order to return children back to the Gates and favorable psychological assessments, the parents are still classified as abusive parents in CPS's central registry solely based on the opinion of CPS social workers. In the last 8 years, the Gates spent US$175,000 in legal fee trying to have their names removed. They formed a non-profit organization called the Texas Center for Family Rights to assist parents facing similar abuse from CPS.

Synopsis: state intervention on families, child removal on various pretexts, fragile parental rights, (archived on September 15, 2010, click for more information) ...
The Family Preservation Festival 2008 took place in Upper Senate Park, Washington, DC on August 15 to 16, 2008. (more information at www.dcfestival2008.com). Professor Stephen Baskerville, Author of "Taken Into Custody, The War Against Fathers, Marriage and the Family" (www.stephenbaskerville.net) spoke. He identified the problems of state intervention on families using children as pawns.
Parents now fear government officials. No families and children will be safe until government officials fear people. Dr. Baskerville concluded his speech by saying: "If you touch my children, you will answer to me."

We are not aware of this video until October 11, 2009. Our research discoveries of the Canadian "child protection" industry are precisely and concisely summarized in her speech. State-sponsored "child protection" is nothing more than a scam to transfer wealth from taxpayers to members of the special interest groups in this industry, the true beneficiaries of the system.
She lost her senatecy in 2008 after she filed her report alleging corruption and urging reform in the "child protection" industry. This proves how influential and powerful special interest groups are on government. Without fear of disfavour from party boss and political unpopularity, Mrs. Schaefer is the kind of politician needed to serve the best interests of the people.

20081227 news footage from Fox 26 Investigates (my Fox, Houston, Texas) "CPS wrongful removal of Baby" This footage contains graphic images that some viewers may find disturbing. Viewer's discretion is advised.
Synopsis: infant "in care" with pus from her genital, parents with marijuana history, family member maliciously called CPS, supervised visit, social workers not held accountable, (click for more information)
...
This is a typical case for parents with drugs history. Heed our advice that those on drugs should seek rehab without delay and stay clean if you do not want to lose your children to the state. Be a responsible parent.
21-year old Christina Harrison and her 24-year old husband David attracted the attention of CPS because they used to smoke marijuana. Child Protection Service (CPS) in Houston, Texas ignored obvious medical need of removed infant when parents discovered that there was pus coming out from the genital. Of course, social workers responsible are never punished. This my Fox Houston news footage depicts many problems, such as malicious accusation of child abuse, lack of accountability, failure of the judiciary to provide adequate remedies to rectify problems, ... This young couples are lucky as many parents with drugs history end up losing their children permanently. Like the Baynes in Surrey, British Columbia, they took a great risk of going public to uncover the corruption of a very powerful and oppressive government agency.

Zabeth Baynes of Surrey, British Columbia expressed her views in an interview with Colleen.
To those who have no experience with "child protection" social workers or those who are in the early stage of being scrutinized by them, the messages delivered in this video may appear absurd and radical. It is hard to believe a government agency can be so corrupted and the courts are so kangaroo in 21st century Canada. These messages are real and scary.

...
This CBN news footage in Erlangen, Germany shows how oppressive a regime could become when government has the authority to remove children from home.
The German government used child welfare service to remove a 15-year old Christian girl and placed her in state foster "care". She was declared mentally ill and locked in an asylum because she opposed the government´s fascist policies and believed in God. The German government denied that she was removed because she was home schooled by her parents, but because of her strong family tie and obedience of her father who authorities considered insane.

20090502 a CBC documentary of government propaganda film " Canadian Residential School Propaganda Video 1955"
Synopsis: a Canadian government propaganda film made in 1955 to indoctrinate people how good residential schools are ... (archived on April 7, 2010, click for more information) ...
Posted by PeopleExpressNewsTV on May 2, 2009, the original broadcast date was on March 13, 1955. These children are the students of the residential school in remote Moose Factory, Ontario. For ten months in a year, these native children, many removed from their homes, start each day with a religious service before heading to classes. A CBC Television crew visits the school to salute Education Week — and here, the education is all about how to integrate into mainstream Canadian society.
A Native Indian (the prime victim of state-sponsored child removal activity), spoke on the similarities of modern "child protection" and residential school at another Court Watch video from youTube titled "Native Canadian speaks of CAS abuse".
His testimony gives a sharp contrast of this government propaganda film.

A Vancouver single mother video taped the testimony of his son how he was pursued by MCFD´ after-hour social workers and followed by police for the purpose of forcing him to a medical check up in the Vancouver Children's Hospital. She analogized state-sponsored child removals to women being stoned in Iran, Tiananmen Square protests in China (1989), Canadian Japanese internment camp during World War II.
Children are targets and tools to make money for special interest groups in the "child protection" industry. Forced medical checkups are fishing expeditions often attempted to obtain incriminating information of abuse.

She discussed corruption in the "child protection" industry and how she lost her senatecy because she filed a report on CPS corruption and supported the cause to protect families. The unsparing actions of CPS destroy families, harm children and create more social problems (such as homeless people when removed children reach adulthood). Parents committed suicide when losing visitation right. This is crime against humanity for financial gain. Many foster children become homeless when they reach adulthood. She was told by her political colleagues that if she helps families scrutinized by Child Protective Service (CPS), she will lose her job. Indeed, she was sacked. CPS is a business to make money by separating families. Family and parent rights must be protected. Reform needs perseverance and reform in child protection is very much needed. To tame CPS, close it completely and start all over with pro family value.
This corruption is so deep rooted that rectification seems impossible. Is it really untouchable? When a regime divorces from the people and no longer serves their best interests, it is merely a paper tiger.

Professor Stephen Baskerville wrote a book titled "Taken Into Custody" that speaks on how family courts and government policies are harming children. In no uncertain terms, he identified the absurdity of "child protection" law and how parents are persecuted without fair trial under the pretext of "child protection". He emphasized that this problem not only pertains in the United States but also in many other countries.

This 3-part documentary film in which victim's parents, foster parents, former "child protection" social workers and doctors talk. "Child protection" agency always use the term "best interests of children" to justify their actions. Politicians and parents do not fully understand what this means. In reality, this means the best interests of the "child protection" agency as determined by the agency.
In the Klamath County, Oregon, this documentary alleged that the county court has not ruled against "child protection" agency (called DHS in this state) in termination of the guardianship, even of permanent custody, of biological parents in 13 years.
Corruption in the judiciary includes: judge's relatives working as social/case workers, certified court transcripts do not reflect what had transpired in court (when compared with audio recordings of the producer, be mindful that unlike its Canadian counterpart, most American courts allow recording), social workers are protected by judges when giving testimony on the stand and need not to answer any questions that he or she does not feel comfortable of answering, ...

Austin (Texas) News reported a 52-year old "child protection" social worker Mark LeVrier admitted that he molested a 12-year old girl of a family he "helped" and another child when he was carrying out his duties as a social worker in Texas. Taking advantage of vulnerable young child is despicable. Given their power and the nature of their work, "child protection" social workers should be abide by the highest standard of professional ethics and must face the heaviest punishment in professional disciplinary action and law should they fail to act within professional ethic code. In British Columbia, they are not required to register with any professional governing body. For some unknown reasons, the government has allowed the fox to run the hen house.

Like predators in the animal world, "child protection" social workers target youngsters. They often use team work, divide and conquer tactics to separate them from their parents. Collaborators in the "child protection" industry whose livelihood depend on state-sponsored child removals all jump in to get their shares. This operation is usually impersonal and conducted as a business. Parents can do nothing to protect their children but to watch in despair when their children are being traumatized, or even killed in some extreme cases.

CBC News footage covering the interview with Mr. Cameron Ward, a Vancouver lawyer famous of defending protesters. In 2002, he was strip-searched by the police in Vancouver. The police wrongly suspected him to throw a pie at the former Primer Minister Jean Chrétien. Mr. Ward was later released from custody with no charge laid. On July 23, 2010, the Supreme Court of Canada handed down its decision [citation: Vancouver (City) v. Ward, 2010 SCC 27] ruling in favor of Mr. Ward and affirmed the damages awarded by lower court.
The essence of this decision is two-folded:
-
Even when government and authorities do not act in bad faith and are not liable in tort, victims whose charter rights have been violated may sue for damages.
- It sets the guideline to determine the amount, or quantum, of damages awarded once damages are found a proper remedy.
Mr. Ward said that this decision made it clear that charter rights really have some meaning. Frankly, charter rights have no meaning at all until government surrenders child removal authority.

-
The local Chinese TV station added the following issues not covered in the above two news footages made by mainstream media in the Cameron Ward case:
-
In the response of the Vancouver City Police, spokeman Lindsey Houghton claimed that ignoring the good faith of police officers and the complexity and the reality of policing and awarding damages against the police on the infringement (of charter rights) alone is unfair.
- Grace Pastine, the Litigation Director for the B.C. Civil Liberties Association who believed that this case will not give rise to many lawsuits against the authorities as the damages awarded are usually small and the legal process is lengthy and costly.
-
On January 21, 2010, a Vancouver Chinese resident Mr. Yui Wai Ng was beaten and seriously wounded by the Vancouver City Police in his own home when the police made a mistake in going to the wrong address. The Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner had allowed an extension of time for investigating this case. The Delta Police was in charge of this investigation and alleged that more time is needed due to the complexity of this case. This is a good reminder that there are many abuse of authority even in a free and democratic country.

Memoirs of a Baby Stealer, by Foster Mother Mary Callahan on Truth Brigade Radio with Christie. Mary Callahan is an emergency room nurse, cardiopulmonary nurse educator, and foster parent. She is the author of FIGHTING FOR TONY, an account of her own research that led to a cure of her son's autism, as well as numerous articles on parenting, nursing, and foster care. The mother of two children, Callahan resides in Maine.
http://www.ilovedyoufirst.org/
Mary Callahan never planned on writing a book about her experiences as a foster parent. She had only one goal as a parent, to help the children in her care. But as she learned their stories, it became painfully clear that the Child Welfare System had no sincere regard for the welfare of children. Callahan realized the only way to truly help the children was to tell their stories.
Written from the unique perspective of a foster parent, Memoirs of a Baby Stealer chronicles Callahan's experiences with five foster children, shedding light on the inadequacies of the Child Welfare System in this country. As the author explains, "They are taking kids from places that aren't that bad, putting them in places that aren't that good, and completely ignoring the bond that exists between parent and child."

The full length documentary released on 17 September 2011 correctly identified the problems created by the child protection industry. It has drawn the attention of service providers in the industry. They have already mobilized and are motivated to destroy all efforts that may curtail their absolute power with all their might. Their puppets in the Ontario provincial legislature voted down a private act tabled by the opposition to call for Ombudsman oversight of CAS and a requirement for all CAS workers to be members of the College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. This is a serious socio-political problem that affects all Canadians. Nobody with a conscience could turn a blind eye on atrocities created by state-sponsored child removal.
Service providers cannot stand any rectifying measures that may hold them accountable. In our view, an oversight act and mandatory professional body registration are grossly insufficient to protect the safety of our children and families. To ensure a safer future, general child removal power must be revoked. This will certainly attract immense opposition from those whose financial interests are affected and those who do not understand the true nature of the industry and its impacts on society, families and, above all, children.

The following is reproduced from Global News "Caregivers for B.C. children need better vetting, says convict who worked as one" aired on 9 February 2017 by Yuliya Talmazan.
Caregivers for B.C. children need better vetting, says convict who worked as one by Yuliya Talmazan, Global News February 9, 2017 9:13 pm
A convict who was hired to run two foster homes by an agency that was contracted out by the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) to care for some of B.C.’s most vulnerable kids says caregivers aren’t vetted closely enough.
Thirty-eight-year-old Andrew Resham Bhatti has a hundred criminal convictions, including aggravated assault, robbery and possession of heroin.
He battled a drug addiction and spent eight-and-a-half years behind bars.
Nevertheless, he says he was hired as a caregiver to run two foster homes under the umbrella of MCFD.
Today, he is speaking out about the questionable vetting practices by agencies in charge of kids in government care.
Bhatti claims he was hired to be a caregiver in 2011, just 2.5 years after he was released from prison.
He heard about the job through a friend who had a criminal record – and who was also working for a child caregiving agency.
Bhatti says he applied and was hired a week later.
With just Grade 5 education under his belt, Bhatti says he had no special training in how to care for children or handle their complex needs. He admits he had some child minding experience, but no real qualifications or training for the job.
Bhatti has now turned his life around: he’s a father himself and he’s giving back to the community. He received the Courage to Come Back Award in the addiction category in 2015.
He now believes he should never have been given a job as a caregiver.
“I should have never been hired if the ministry was doing proper checks,” said Bhatti.
“Was it safe to hire me? Yes, because my intention was in the right place. My goal was to help the kid [in my care] and try to prevent him from going down the road that I went; guide him in the right direction to get those resources before he ends up dead or kills himself like Alex Gervais.”
Gervais killed himself in September 2015 by jumping out of a fourth-floor window at an Abbotsford motel.
He had been housed there for 49 days because the agency caring for him could not find a more suitable option.
B.C. new Children’s Watchdog released a scathing report into his life and death on Monday.
The report showed Alex’s caregiver, who had a history of gun violence, gang involvement and drug dealing, was paid more than $8,000 a month to take care of the teen, but was nowhere to be found in the last 10 days of Alex’s life.
Alex’s text messages to his friends before his death showed he felt neglected and desperate.
Bhatti says what happened to Gervais was tragic.
“I felt that he was a victim, who was lost in the system, just like myself,” said Bhatti, who went through 40 foster homes as a child and suffered sexual abuse.
“They put people like myself in a position to watch over somebody and take care of them because the family can’t help them and they trust the ministry, and the ministry hires convicts like me to watch them, but we are not doing our job and now somebody died because of it.”
Bhatti says when he was hired in 2011, he was working for an agency called Community Vision.
The MCFD cancelled all of Community Vision’s contracts in 2015.
The ministry lost confidence in the agency’s ability to provide a safe and acceptable standard of care.
The MCFD told Global News that anyone who works with kids must go through two criminal record checks – a Criminal Record Review Act check and a criminal record check through a local police detachment.
Ministry policy states that an offence involving harm to a child would disqualify an applicant from becoming a caregiver.
The MCFD now says it will screen all caregivers, including contracted agency caregivers, centrally within the ministry.
Previously, agencies themselves were responsible for vetting their own sub-contracted caregivers.
But Bhatti says more oversight is necessary.
Asked whether convicts should be able to work with the kids in ministry’s care, Bhatti says they should have that option, but the ministry should do proper checks and not hire people who are fresh out of jail.
“The kids need to be able to see that people care for them,” Bhatti said.
“Most of my friends who work in foster care really care and a lot of convicts do, but a lot of people do this job just for the paycheque.”
