A
S politicians debate proposed
legislation to detain adults in the
throes of a meth psychosis for up
to 72 hours, Manitoba’s children’s advo-
cate wants to know how minors will be
treated.
“When they talk about Bill 48 with re-
spect to detaining intoxicated people for
72 hours or so, there is no youth-specific
need addressed in that bill,” Sherry Gott
said Wednesday.
The Protective Detention and Care of
Intoxicated Persons Act would replace
the Intoxicated Persons Detention Act,
which allows for the 24-hour involuntary
detention of people intoxicated by alco-
hol. It proposes 20 spaces for people to
detox from the effects of drugs under
medical supervision, but doesn’t say any-
thing about youth.
The Manitoba Foster Parents Associ-
ation echoed the advocate’s concern.
“The legislation makes no clear refer-
ence to children or youth, despite the fact
that many young people, especially those
in or from care, struggle with addiction,
trauma, homelessness and mental-health
crises,” said president Jamie Pfau.
“I think there needs to be an updated
strategy or an updated resource for
youth, and I don’t think they should
be mixed in with adults,” Gott said
in an interview. “There needs to be a
youth-specific focus,” the advocate said
after the release of her annual report
that includes data about child deaths and
serious injuries.
“When you look at my report, many of
those injuries are alcohol- and drug-re-
lated,” she said Wednesday.
The report specifies “substance mis-
use” was the second-most-reported risk
factor for children and youth who had
serious injuries. It points to the need for
better-equipped youth addiction servi-
ces to address substance use and its re-
lated harms.
“The province’s current youth ad-
diction system is ill-equipped to meet
the complex and co-occurring needs
of many young people, and is fraught
with persistent and long-standing gaps
and barriers to available and accessible
services,” the advocate said in a news
release.
The gaps expose a major rift between
government commitment and action,
she said, adding she has called for the
government to update its strategies and
create new policies to support children
with disabilities, mental health needs or
addiction,” Gott said.
“We also know that there needs to be
these specialized placements and facili-
ties that meet the needs of those kids
with high-risk needs,” she said. “The
mental health and addiction — substance
use issues — need to be addressed by the
government.”
She said she’s been waiting for the
province to roll out a strategy.
Addictions Minister Bernadette Smith
told reporters her department is work-
ing collaboratively to address addictions
and substance “misuse” and “supporting
and meeting youth where they’re at.”
When asked if there is a plan for a
protective care centre that offers 72-
hour holds for youth gripped in a meth
psychosis, Smith said her department is
working with all of its serving agencies
and the children’s advocate. “We want
to make sure that youth are getting the
supports that they need.”
Smith said she has no concerns about
a minor being taken to a protective care
centre at 190 Disraeli Fwy. when it opens
— which, according to the minister —
could be as soon as Saturday.
“We know that Manitobans need the
supports and we’re working towards
that,” she said ahead of debate over Tory
amendments to Bill 48.
“We just need the Tories to pass this
bill to ensure that this facility opens, so
that Manitobans get the support they
need and we can keep our community
safe,” Smith said.
The advocate’s annual report shows a
decrease in the number of child, youth
and young adults deaths from previous
years.
“One child death is too many,” said
Gott. While there were fewer deaths,
the number whose manner of death was
undetermined increased — to 83 from 71
one year earlier.
The advocate attributed the increase to
suspected overdose deaths and sleep-re-
lated infant deaths.
The report said the advocate’s office
is dealing with increasingly complex
cases, with more young people needing
services from multiple systems.
It’s taken steps to “Indigenous” its
advocacy, 83 per cent of which involves
Indigenous children and youth. That in-
cludes public education throughout the
province to let people know about the
role of the advocate.
“We need to provide that outreach to
make sure that children and youth rights
are met,” Gott said.
They connected with 3,007 youth
through engagement workshops, re-
ceived 3,018 requests for advocacy ser-
vices and reached 604,079 social media
accounts through a digital awareness
campaign, the annual reports says.
Families Minister Nahanni Fontaine,
who was not available Wednesday, issued
a prepared statement saying the govern-
ment appreciates the advocate’s work
“which helps guide our work to protect
vulnerable young people.”
She said the province is expanding
programs, including Huddle youth men-
tal health hubs, and after-school and
mentoring programs.

Searchers scour
fields for three
escaped monkeys
HEIDELBERG, Miss. — Three mon-
keys remained on the loose Wed-
nesday as searchers in masks, face
shields and other protective gear
scoured fields along a rural Mississip-
pi highway where a truck carrying the
primates overturned a day earlier.
It remained unclear who owns the
monkeys, who was transporting them
and where they were being taken
when the truck crashed on Interstate
59 north of Heidelberg. Authorities
have said most of the 21 monkeys were
killed, but haven’t elaborated on just
what occurred.
The Jasper County Sheriff’s Depart-
ment has said animal experts from
Tulane University examined the trail-
er Tuesday evening and determined
three monkeys had escaped.
The truck was carrying Rhesus
monkeys, which typically weigh
about 16 pounds (8 kilograms) and are
among the most medically studied
animals on the planet. Video record-
ed after the crash showed monkeys
crawling through tall grass beside
the interstate, where wooden crates
labelled “live animals” were crumpled
and strewn about.
The truck was no longer at the scene
Wednesday, but the searchers in gear
including white coats, gloves and hair
nets were checking fields, aided by
law enforcement officers.
Jasper County Sheriff Randy John-
son said Tulane officials reported the
monkeys were not infectious, despite
initial reports by the truck’s occu-
pants warning that the monkeys were
dangerous and harbouring various
diseases. Nonetheless, Johnson said
the monkeys still needed to be “neu-
tralized” because of their aggressive
nature.
The monkeys were being housed at
the Tulane University National Bio-
medical Research Center, which rou-
tinely provides primates to scientific
research organizations, according to
the New Orleans school. The research
centre is located in Covington, Louisi-
ana, about 65 kilometres north of New
Orleans.
The 21 monkeys had recently re-
ceived checkups confirming they
were pathogen-free, Tulane said in a
statement Wednesday. The university
said it wasn’t transporting the mon-
keys and didn’t own them, but sent a
team of animal experts to help with
their care.
All other monkeys were being trans-
ported back to Louisiana.
About 10 years ago, three macaques
in the breeding colony of the Tulane
National Primate Research Center
were euthanized after a “biosecurity
breach,” federal inspectors wrote in
a 2015 report. The breach involved
at least one staff member failing to
adhere to biosafety and infection con-
trol procedures, it said. The facility
made changes in its procedures and
retrained staff after that happened,
according to the report from the U.S.
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service.
The Mississippi Highway Patrol
said Wednesday that it was investigat-
ing the cause of the crash, which oc-
curred about 160 kilometres from the
state capital, Jackson.
Dr. James Watson, Mississippi’s
state veterinarian, verified that the
animals had the proper documents
and “certificate of veterinary in-
spection” for legal transport across
state lines, he said in an email to The
Associated Press. The state’s Board of
Animal Health wasn’t involved in the
response to the crash, and additional
information would need to come from
Tulane, he said.
If anyone sees monkeys, they should
call the authorities and shouldn’t ap-
proach the animals, the sheriff’s of-
fice has warned.
Rhesus macaques “are known to be
aggressive,” according to the Missis-
sippi Department of Wildlife, Fish-
eries and Parks. It said the agency’s
conservation workers were working
with sheriff’s officials in the search
for the animals.
The search comes about one year
after 43 Rhesus macaques escaped
from a South Carolina compound that
breeds them for medical research be-
cause an employee didn’t fully lock an
enclosure. Employees from the Alpha
Genesis facility in Yemassee, South
Carolina, had set up traps to capture
them.
