Canada's Residential Schools
The religious organizations that operated the schools — the Anglican Church of Canada, Presbyterian Church in Canada, United Church of Canada, Jesuits of English Canada and some Catholic groups —
in 2015 expressed regret for the “well-documented” abuses. The Catholic Church has never offered an official apology, something that Trudeau and others have repeatedly called for.

Oklahoma Adoption Attorney Approves Baby Deseray Removal for Friend
Next
week, South Carolina Judge Marsh Robertson has a hearing scheduled for
the finalization of the adoption of Oklahoma-born infant, Merry Rejoice
Bixler, better known as “Baby Deseray,” in Greenville County family
court. The hearing, on Monday, October 28, comes a little over a month
after Oklahoma County Judge Allen Welch granted custody of the girl to
the Absentee Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma and ordered her return to that
state.
...
In the Baby Deseray case, Indian Country Today Media Network has learned
that Nomura is close friends with Swain, who is on the board of
directors for Nomura's Tulsa-based private adoption agency, Heritage
Family Services. Nomura has been the state’s Department of Human
Services compact administrator for ICPC applications since 2008.

To Veronica Brown
Did you know?
New York’s 4o-year battle for OBC access ended when on January 15 2020, OBCs were opened to all New York adoptees upon request without restriction. In only three days, over 3,600 adoptees filed for their record of birth. The bill that unsealed records was passed 196-12.
ADOPTION TRUTH
As the single largest unregulated industry in the United States, adoption is viewed as a benevolent action that results in the formation of “forever families.”
The truth is that it is a very lucrative business with a known sales pitch. With profits last estimated at over $1.44 billion dollars a year, mothers who consider adoption for their babies need to be very aware that all of this promotion clouds the facts and only though independent research can they get an accurate account of what life might be like for both them and their child after signing the adoption paperwork.
I can't take anymore. I hope Veronica grows up and becomes a lawyer and fights for the right of every child to be free of forced adoption.
