Description: This study, commissioned by UNICEF Canada on the eighteenth anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Convention), provides a snapshot of what it's like to be 18 in Canada&emdash;and the vanguard of the first generation of children born with its own set of guaranteed universal rights. Using current sociological data and the perspectives of Canadian children and youth, we look at the status of Canadian children's rights under the Convention; the impact of these rights on children's daily lives; and where Canada is&emdash;or isn't&emdash;meeting its commitments.
