Tragedy Sparks Youth Protection Review | Ottawa News
Description
Three young lives lost in Montreal’s youth care system have ignited urgent demands for reform. A 16-year-old girl, a 17-year-old boy, and a four-year-old girl—all connected to Batshaw Youth and Family Centres—died under its supervision, exposing systemic failures. Santé Québec has launched an independent review to audit operations, compliance, and safety measures, with a focus on resolving chronic staffing shortages and long wait times that endanger vulnerable children. The probe will deliver actionable recommendations and ongoing updates to ensure swift, lasting improvements in Quebec’s youth protection services.
