Manitoba Mom's Baby Taken, No Explanation

0:00It's April 27. From your city to your ears. This is Canada News today, powered by AI. A Manitoba First Nation mom from Sandy Bay, Ojibwe Nation gave birth to a healthy new born on April 15 at Portage District General Hospital. Just days later, child and family services showed up and took the baby away with zero explanation or paperwork. The family says no one even talked to her about why. She lost her first child to CFS back when she was 16 because of drug issues, but this time she stayed clean through the whole pregnancy. Still, they grabbed the infant right from the hospital room and she has not seen any medical or drug test results to back up the move. The mom broke down crying, heartbroken that her son could not come home with her. Her family is furious, calling it unfair and demanding clear reasons, especially since no risk were flagged up front. CFS claims they are working with the family to prioritize the child's safety and use respectful, culture-focused support. Manitoba ended birth alerts back on July 1, 2020, shifting to community help so babies can stay home when safe.

1:08Now the family is pushing for more drug tests and answers, vowing to fight until the baby is back where he belongs, stressing that every child needs their parents.
