The pic is 9 year old Ayn and her Dad. Does she Look like she needs to be Chemically Battered with these drugs? Forget the Fact that None of it's even Legal.
Does this Child look like she's a Disposable who has to be locked up and chemically Lobotomized?

Make some calls Canada. These drugs don't belong in an adult, much less a 9 year old. Mindfreedom lists some E-Mail addresses.
That's nice, but you'd better send Real letters and make Real Phone calls because when you're dealing with This level of Obtuse, Bureaucratic Barbarians, E-Mails will just get flushed.

9 Year Old Taken From Home, Forced Hospitalized and Forced Drugged in BC, Canada
ABBOTSFORD, British Columbia, Canada. -- Ayn Van Dyk, an autistic 9 year old girl was removed from her family, forced hospitalized and forced drugged after a wandering episode, according to her father Derek Hoare.
The family says the BC Ministry of Children and Family Development took the child on the grounds that the father is overwhelmed, as he is a single father of three children, two of them diagnosed with severe autism. No suspicion of abuse has been alleged.
According to her records, Ayn was placed in a hospital and was medicated with two neuroleptic (antipsychotic) psychiatric drugs: She is receiving 75mg of Chlorpromazine (also known as Thorazine or Largactil) up to twice daily In addition, she is being administered Risperdal (Risperidone).
Seroquel was added to her list of potential meds. And a "sleeping aid."
According to witnesses, Ayn carries all day long a picture of her and her dad. After all the distress and drugging she is wetting her bed.
Her father says Ayn had never been given a psychiatric drug before this experience.
Ayn's Story: Bubbly Little Girl
Her family describes Ayn Van Dyk as a bubbly little girl. She likes photography and baking. She loves pink and crafts. Ayn goes to school and her favorite subject is art, though she loves to write stories as well.
In 2003 she was diagnosed with autism, her family chose not to medicate her, reports her father. On June 16, Ayn had been playing in the backyard of her family's home. Despite a a six-foot fence, she went missing. After frantically looking for her, without success, her father called 911 and a police search commenced. Ayn was found two hours later playing in a neighbor's backyard. Four days later, on June 20, Ayn Van Dyk was taken from her school and into custody by the BC Ministry of Children and Family Development, against the wishes of her family. Ayn was placed in a "specialized hospital" for evaluation, as she was deemed unsuitable for foster care at the time.
On June 28, 2011, despite objections by the Ministry of Children and Family Development, Ayn was released from the hospital and placed in a foster home, due to the hospital considering that 'hospitalization was no longer appropriate'.
Discharge documents report that Ayn was medicated receiving 75mg of chlorpromazine up to twice daily.
The hospital documents also state that, "We saw no bruises or evidence of physical abuse, and her body status (weight, height, vital signs) showed no evidence of neglect." The Ministry apparently doesn't agree with the discharge and is now seeking a longer term hospital stay of a minimum of 6 weeks and is working toward getting Ayn accepted into the Children's Hospital resident patient program.
