International Adoptions Declining or Not?

Here is a link to an interesting US article that I came across.  It talks about the the decline in international adoptions in the US in 2009 compared to 2008.

I thought I would see if I could find any similar information for Canada and came up with this from the Adoption Council of Canada.

In 2008, 1,908 children were adopted internationally in Canada.  Which is actually an increase from previous years.
