CAS workers must be screened for
illegal drug use! Archbishop Dorian A. Baxter's letter to Ontario's Minister of Children and Youth services re threats by CAS workers against children and parents (Dec 12, 2005) Read this latest letter from Archbishop Baxter regarding complaints by children and parents about being threatened by CAS workers in the Province of Ontario. Court Watch gets many calls from children and parents complaining about abuse of power and authority by CAS workers. CAS workers are fighting to the bitter end to keep themselves from being accountable by threatening or intimidating parents and children who want to use recording devices record their meetings with workers. Workers do not want to have any evidence of what was said at meetings so that they can twist what was said in meetings to their own advantage.
April 04, 2005 In follow-up to complaints from members of the public about an unlicensed social worker with the York Region Children's Aid Society, Archbishop Baxter has sent a warning letter to the CAS worker involved. To give the worker an opportunity to improve the way she serves the public, her name has been blackened out on this letter. Link to letter to York Region CAS worker dated April 4, 2005.
March 21, 2005 In follow-up to complaints from members of the public about unlicensed social workers causing problems with children and families, Archbishop Baxter has sent a letter to the Ontario College of Social Workers regarding the qualifications of members of the Ontario Association of Children's Aid Agencies (OACAS) committee which has recently made recommendations to the Ontario Government for even more government money.

February 28 2005 A letter from the Attorney General of Ontario, Michael Bryant to the Archbishop Dorian A. Baxter regarding Ontario's new domestic violence risk assessment tool. The main problem it would appear is that Ontario's new domestic violence tool only seems to consider violence against women by men and does not consider violence against men and children by women. It would appear that Ontario's new risk assessment tool is very biased and discriminatory against men in the Province of Ontario. Link to letter from Michael Bryant dated February 28, 2005
January 31, 2005 Letter from the Archbishop Dorian Baxter to the Attorney General Of Ontario, the Hon Michael J. Bryant regarding transparency and accountability of the courts. Copies of recent complaints regarding the justice system have been enclosed with the letter. Link to Attorney General letter of January 31, 2005
May 4, 2004 Letter from the Archbishop Dorian Baxter to the Attorney General Of Ontario, the Hon Michael J. Bryant regarding proposed changes to court procedures. In this letter it has been suggested that court endorsements from Judges be reviewed and approved by all parties before the judge leaves the court in order to catch any errors and omissions which the judge may have made in his hand written endorsement. Errors made by the Judge, if not corrected at the time of the court hearing, can have a devastating effect on the rights and freedoms of those Canadians involved as well as cost taxpayers and the parties involved, thousands of dollars in additional costs. Link to Attorney General letter of May 4, 2004 (not responded to as of March 2005)
