The federal government's tough-on-crime agenda is "excessively punitive" for youth and is a step backwards for Canada's child rights record, says a United Nations group.

    Really, you think Canada would follow the lead of such exemplary leaders in human rights such as Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Zimbabwe, and China.

    The report also wants Canada to:
    Adopt a national strategy to implement children's rights, alleviate poverty and prevent violence.
    Address high levels of violence against aboriginal women and girls.
    Ensure child victims of violence have access to restraining orders and other means of protection.
    Help troubled parents take better care of their children instead of sending them into foster care.
    Ensure disabled children are not forced into segregated schooling.
    Monitor the use of drugs to treat mental conditions in children, to curtail over-medication.
    Eliminate user fees in public schools.
    Increase the availability of free or affordable daycare.
    Rehabilitate Omar Khadr.
    Stop detaining child refugee claimants.
    Act to prevent obesity among children.


    Looks like they've taken a special interest in our grenade chucking burden.

    I wonder if UN committees ever get depressed asking for stuff they know they can't have?

    The only people that take any notice of the UN are the UN.

    Periodically a few of the leftists on this site are fond of citing the UN as if it is a legitimate organization of some sort.
