Publish annual reports on the number of Aboriginal children in care in Canada!

The Issue

This is the second call to action by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Although this call to action has been completed, it is important for the information be known and understood by the general public.This information should be looked at for the following reasons.
Due to the forced attendance of Aboriginal children to residential schools, significant trauma remains within the communities of the attendees. Since these children were taken from their families, Aboriginal communities have had massive problems with addiction and abuse to cope with the trauma their community has endured.

Without this data, the government will have no information to back up their funding for further care for Aboriginal youth. These annual reports will be imperative to understanding exactly what the federal government of Canada can do to help the future generations. This data can be used to show how much the budget should be adjusted for care needed by Aboriginal youth. 

The longer the government wastes to start collecting, analyzing, and publishing this data, the more money it will cost. As prices and salaries go up, it becomes harder to justify more employees to collect and analyze this data. Once this data is collected, the government will be able to fund future care programs for Aboriginal youth easier because they will have the data to back up their reasons for allocating this money.
