Rose, Try as I could, I failed to make any sense of what you are trying to say. And I say that without any intent to deprecate.
How did you come to the conclusion that couples in Canada who are adopting are mostly mixed race. You have given no fact or observation or deduction to prove this. As an aside, the 2000-odd annual adoption figures cited are probably not inclusive of private agencies in the field operating under govt regulations but independent of the Adoption Council of Canada.
