Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Children’s Aid Society of Toronto v. D.E., 2016 ONCJ 390 (CanLII):

[21] Where the addition of a party is likely to increase a child’s exposure to adult conflict the court should be cautious about adding the party. The court should look at the proposed party’s ability to cooperate with the society and proceed in a child-focused manner. See: Children’s Aid Society of Toronto v. C.K., [2013] O.J. No. 2917.
