Zurich Citizens News, 1959-01-28, Page 5WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1959 Adoption Rules May Change In.

There are now some 8,000 child- ren in the Province who are av- ailable for adoption, and many of them are not easy to place be- cause of physical and mental dis- ability, or because of religious or racial background.

This involv- es many legal problems, especially that of citizenship. "But," said Mr, Cecile, "1 can see no objection to placing child- ren elsewhere than in Ontario if we satisfy ourselves the home is a proper one. Our first concernis the welfare of the child and, if we can place a child in a home ZURICH Citizens NEWS that really wants him, even if it is outside Ontario, why should we refuse the child the chance of getting a good home?" Mr, Cecile cited the case of a Georgia couple who were inter- ested in adopting two deaf child- ren. The Welfare Minister said that the same precautions will apply to adoptions outside the Province as to those in Ontario.
