Government Approaches to Child Neglect and Mistreatment in Nineteenth-century Ontario

In 1893 Ontario introduced its first comprehensive child protection system. The concept of neglect and the assumption of societal and governmental responsibility for disadvantaged children was not new, however; it had evolved during Ontario's first century. By 1874 legislation provided a detailed and sophisticated description of children in need of protection and of deficient parents; a process for removing children from their parents and the authority to refuse their return; a new type of institution to care for these children; systematic government grants for children's homes and their accountability to the state; and simpler incorporation by which charitable institutions could assume the authority they needed over children in their care. Ontario's child protection system was thus built on a firm foundation. En 1893, l’Ontario a mis sur pied son premier système complet de protection de l’enfance. La notion de négligence et la présomption de responsabilité sociale et gouvernementale à l’endroit des enfants défavorisés n’étaient toutefois pas nouvelles, ayant évolué durant le premier siècle d’existence de l’Ontario. En 1874, la législation donnait une description claire et précise de ce qu’était un enfant ayant besoin de protection et un parent déficient et prévoyait : un processus permettant de soustraire les enfants à leurs parents et l’autorité de refuser de les leur rendre; un nouveau type d’établissements pour s’occuper de ces enfants; des subventions gouvernementales systématiques pour les foyers pour enfants et l’obligation de ces maisons de rendre des comptes à l’État; et un processus de constitution en personne morale plus simple permettant aux oeuvres de bienfaisance d’exercer sur les enfants à leur charge l’autorité dont elles avaient besoin. On ancrait ainsi le système de protection de l’enfance de l’Ontario à de solides assisses
