Stats |
- 2003? Stats Canada has no statistics on orphaned (abandoned) children in Canada. [...]. There are 88,000 children in foster care in Canada (I believe the number is significantly higher because there are 30,423 children in foster care in Ontario alone and the numbers are similar in Alberta); of these, 49 per cent are Crown Wards- looked after by the Government.
Several Canadian families have applied for orphanage status (and were denied) because they foster more than 100 kids and often juggle 5 or more at a time.
Thousands of children in foster care are waiting for adults to roll the dice on their future.
The cost of one child in foster care for one year is $40,000. - There are 22,000 children waiting for adoption in Canada. Every year the number of adoptions decline. There are only 1700 adoptions a year - these are approximate numbers as they are gathered in a willy nilly fashion from the different areas in separate provinces. Above comment posted on > source
