Many people are hesitant to admit to struggling financially in general, but especially to people who they believe (whether correctly or not) are trying to take their kids away

Canada has various ‘emergency funding’ programs which social works can assist in accessing. So if children are not properly clothed for cold weather, once CPS is involved a parent admitting that finances are the issue would prevent their kids from being taken away, rather than the other alternative of negligent parenting.

JMO I doubt there’d be hesitancy to admit to struggling financially. How could it not with DM working only one day a week to support a family of five in rural NS? The social worker would be totally incompetent to not view that as a possible issue, CCB or not.

So i am a little bit late to this thread but has there been any forward progress at all whatsoever regarding the kids finally being found?

i certainly hope so.

Not to our knowledge. If they were lost in the forest and there is any hope of finding them, then there would need to be another search organized once the snow melts and before the undergrowth sets out new leaves. That would be somewhere between mid April and early May. I'm not certain if any such searches are planned.
