First Nation leaders in B.C. to discuss taking over child welfare services for its members

Key First Nation leaders sent a letter to Premier David Eby expressing "heartbreak and outrage" at the loss of one of its teenage members while she was in British Columbia's child welfare system. The nation says it chose to start consultations in Vancouver to honour Noelle O'Soup, a 13-year-old member of its nation who disappeared from a B.C. group home in 2021 and whose remains were found in the city nearly a year later.
