Fostering A Nation Canada Confronts It’s History of Childhood Disadvantage, written by Veronica Strong-Boag, discusses the history of child welfare in Canada. Strong-Boag explains how there is a dark side of Canada’s response to the lives of children in private homes and institutions in Canada in the 1900s. Her argument has been stated clearly on page 3, “Fostering Nation? Explores the missteps and detours of a century and more of child protection efforts by Canadians and their governments as they confronted the specter if children judged neglected, abused, deficient, and delinquent.” Furthermore, her goal is to uncover her argument through first hand accounts from children at the time and “first” parents and their kin, surrogate parents and those responsible for children not of their own. This review will discuss Strong-Boag’s book in three parts, her clear concise layout, an excellent job with organization her thoughts, and her passion behind her writing. Strong-Boag’s, Fostering A Nation, deserves many praises for a well-rounded book.
