Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, whose daughter also has autism, has called for reform, citing the need for alerts that can be issued even when there is no evidence of foul play.
Poilievre's personal experience with his non verbal daughter's wandering behavior has given him a unique perspective on this issue.
