Death of baby focus of special investigation by Sask. children's advocate

Following the death of a baby boy from pneumonia, the Saskatchewan Children's Advocate is calling for stricter rules and closer co-operation between First Nations and provincial social agencies.

On Thursday, children's advocate Bob Pringle released a report on the death of Aiden (not his real name), who was born prematurely in August 2015 and died at home 10 weeks later on Oct. 25.

"Our investigation revealed that on numerous occasions, concerns were raised about the care Aiden was receiving, his living conditions and the level of supervision in the home," the report said.
