This Blog will discuss politics, government, corruption, police, S.I.U., courts, education, min. of attorney general, min. of labour, v.o.i.c.e. and other current and past events of interest to concerned citizens. In the "About me" section to the right and down I have included the names of persons whom I have tremendous respect for. Their influence on me however has been primarily environmental (and personal) and this is therefore a disclaimer that all words posted on this Blog/Website are mine and I alone am responsible for them.

(GRAND)PARENTAL RIGHTS IN CUSTODY CASES



Yesterday's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story "Bill to give grandparents access rights subject of review". Apparently Liberal backbencher Kim Craitor has received little or no support from his own party in regards to his attempt to update the Child law Reform Act. He along with most normal and rational human beings feel that the current family law in this province is a mess and when it comes to grandparents keeping in touch with their grandchildren it's even worse than that. There is legislation dealing with grandparents access to their grandchildren in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, Nova Scotia and the Yukon.

Currently his proposals have reached second reading and will go to a legislative committee which will hold public meetings prior to third and final reading. The entire legislation around family law is a disgrace in this province and simply promotes hostility, non cooperation and litigation. In other words great for the judges, lawyers and the system at immense human cost to both parents and children.
