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. carol.sanders@freepress.mb.ca NEWS I MANITOBA / WORLD 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. — The Associated Press SOPHIE BATES SOPHIE BATES / THE ASSOCIATED PRESS People search along a highway in Heidelberg, Miss., Wednesday for the missing monkeys.
