I'm assuming you're going thru Nova Scotia Social Services

I just went to their website, hoping it was something like Alberta's, which is excellent -

Nova Scotia's website isn't like theirs! (Neither is Saskatchewan's, which is where I'm from)

Check it out - http://www.child.gov.ab.ca/whatwedo/...filelookup.cfm


Anyway, all that aside (because you & I can't adopt from Alberta!)

I'm still surprised that they've told you to expect a 2 year wait.

Are there no waiting children in NS?

Are you open to race / age / sex / handicap / disability

They might tell you '2 years' just so you aren't disappointed if it really does take that long

How long did they tell you before your homestudy could be done?

I know it's different when it is the government rather than the birthfamily choosing adoptive parents.

It'd be great if your profile appealed to a birthfamily who still has the choice for their older child.

Am curious to know how far into this you are, and I hope you'll post again - not too many of us Canadians on here!
