A new private member’s bill is seeking to create an alert system for vulnerable people similar to Amber Alerts
The N-D-P bill introduced in March of last year is being studied by a legislative committee.
N-D-P legislator Monique Taylor says her bill was inspired by the stories of Draven Graham, a boy with autism who drowned in 2022 after going missing and Shirley Love, a senior who died in December of that year after leaving her home not dressed for winter weather.
She read out supportive statements from the families at a committee hearing recently.
