As the trial for two women accused of killing a 12-year-old boy they were trying to adopt enters its final weeks, the public deserves to know if and how the Children's Aid Society (CAS) has been held accountable, says Ontario's former child advocate.
Becky Hamber has testified for the first time at the weeks-long murder trial that has already seen co-accused Brandy Cooney take the witness box.
