Doctor, health administrator to lead Manitoba switched-at-birth review
OTTAWA — A pediatric doctor and a health administrator have been tabbed to examine how four indigenous men from northern Manitoba were switched at birth 40 years ago.
Federal Health Minister Jane Philpott promised the review after two sets of men came forward following DNA tests.
The tests showed they had been sent home from Norway House Indian Hospital with the wrong mothers.
Health Canada says Dr. David Creery and Maura Davies have agreed to lead the independent review.
