Calgary mother relied on herbal remedies: son died, mother charged
http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/11...ial-infection/
Quote:
the boy was bedridden for 10 days before his death, however, the mother declined to seek medical treatment, relying instead on homeopathic remedies, including herbal medicines.
The police said they have no medical records for the boy prior to his death. The child had recently been enrolled in a local school. Prior to January of this year, he had been home-schooled.

I also like how the National Post tries to describe 17th ave as some sort of odd mecca for these weirdos:

The family live in an older, squat apartment along the trendy 17th Ave. SW of Calgary, a strip replete with coffee shops and bars. Home to a Tarot card shop and used clothing store, the block is a close-knit community, according to a neighbour and friend of the family.
