ONLINE PETITION TO CHANGE FAMILY LAW: Family Law should be changed to support and exercise equal rights for all Canadians like many other laws. If a family breaks down, pending evidence to deem either birth parent unfit or unable, rights for children and to children should be changed to only include the following: If the parents dispute over custody (we love our children, who\'s not going to want to be with them), a 50%/50%, or a circumstantial 60%/40%, shared residency order shall be applied by the Court after the child turns 2 years old until the child is old enough to choose which parent they will live with. Each child may choose to dispute the order at any time, within their ability. Each child may retain the legal last name of both parents. Supporting Points: I do not believe this change does not represent the best interests of children. I do not believe this does not give both parents a chance to sustain a real relationship with their children, and a real role in the development of their children. I do not believe that lawyers and courts do not currently make money from the perpetuation of separation, divorce, and custody battles which the current legislation presents. I do not believe this change will not cause the rate of family break down in Canada to decline. I do not believe this change will cause the rate of family break down in Canada to increase. I do not believe this change will not encourage more mature conduct between parents. I do not believe that laws should not be changed and written in the interests of all citizens. I do not believe this change will not exercise equal rights for children, parents, women, and men. I, the undersigned, support the proposed changes to FAMILY LAW and urge the Court to ORDER SHARED RESIDENCY FOR GOOD PARENTS IMMEDIATELY.

it is about time! both parents are equally important. stop treating dads like visitors in their own kids lives.

50/50 should be the default for everyone. tired of the games being played in court.

My kids need their dad and I need my kids. This system is broken and only cares about lining the pockets of lawyers while our families suffer.
