Irene Mathyssen | NDP | an extended family member is adopted | unconditional OR with contact vetoes OR with disclosure vetoes | unconditional OR with contact vetoes OR with disclosure vetoes | NDP MPP Marilyn Churley has led the charge in the Ontario legislature to open up adoption records. Twice the sitting Conservative government has prorogued the legislature preventing Ms. Churley’s Bills from coming to a vote. An NDP government will pass legislation to provide more open access to adoption records.
Thank you for your interest in our position on this matter. |
