Bill 158 proposes to grant adult adopted persons unrestricted access to their real birth registrations. This means that adoptees would be able to apply for their original birth certificates certificates showing birth name, date, place, weight, time and the names and addresses addresses of the birth parents at the time. The bill further proposes to institute institute a contact veto registry for birth parents who do not wish to hear from the person they gave up for adoption. This veto would not prevent the adopted person from receiving birth information. However, birth certificates certificates would be issued with a warning not to directly contact the birth parent. The'Sill was originally expected to have its third reading in November but it has been postponed. "I hope it doesn't get lost in the shuffle or traded off on the floor," says Jan Sullivan, spokesperson for Parent Finders. She is urging adoptees, adoptive parents and supporters to call or write their MPPs asking them to support for the bill. Sullivan states in a recent press release release that the issue has been studied for 20 years in Ontario and that all reports reports have called for more openness in adoption. One family out of five is affected one way or other by adoption, she says. Parent Finders has a registry of 33,000 people in the Greater Toronto Area seeking their birth parents.
