Top aboriginal leader helps man's child welfare protest

Top aboriginal leader helps man's child welfare protest

The country's top aboriginal leader is supporting the cause of a Winnipeg native man who has been camping in front of the legislature trying to draw attention to his child welfare grievance. Samuel McGillivary, 45, says he was identified as a juvenile delinquent when he was eight and forced to work on a Manitoba farm while he lived in a provincially funded group home during the 1970s. Now 45, McGillivary and others with similar claims call themselves the "Lost Boys'' and are pushing the provincial government to call a public inquiry.
