What Immigration Canada is not telling you about: Canada's Family Laws are not the same as laws in other places. After you read this, ask your family lawyer to clarify this, not your immigration barrister (England) or immigration agent. They may not always tell you all of the bad with all the good about citizenship and immigration to Canada.
In their present form, the laws are set against rational treatment of families struck by the unfortunate yet natural occurrence of separation or divorce. Family Laws in Canada are so hostile to those family members snared by the court system that these laws might be in part accountable for a significant decline in immigrants looking for permanent residence in Canada.
In 1997, the Federal Liberal Government made sweeping changes to Family Law in Canada. The Federal Liberal Government persuaded the Provinces to immediately adopt the same laws.
Families are ruined by Canada's Family Laws. Children, former spouses, plus other family members suffer under the force of the family courts, including, grandparents, aunts and uncles, sisters and brothers of fathers over child visitation restrictions.
Kids became increasingly invoked as "pawns" in planned conflicts. The conflicts are set up by the laws and then irritated by enterprises (legal practises, paralegals, counsels). Some fathers are ordered by the court to never see their kids or limit visits to two (2) times per month. Some youngsters suffer lifetime psychoses and drift into lives of substance abuse or crime.
Men who divorce are subjugated to a lower class. These men are ill-treated by courts in the same way Black Americans of the 1960's were treated by what was called "Southern Justice." Absent dads are chased down and prosecuted as if they were serious and dangerous felons.
Since 1998, many experts have presented positive alternative choices to the Governments of the day. These are specialists in sociology, child psychology, family counseling, and pro-family legal professionals and have included a Special Parliamentary Joint Panel.
To date, all the significant reforms presented to all governments of the day have been ignored. After ample time (more than a decade) to benefit from the blunders that were made at the outset, the Canadian and Provincial governments accept the status quo to remain.

Martin Wong has studied Canada's Family Laws and Provincial family laws introduced by the Federal Liberal Government in May 1997. How these laws and court judgements impact real parents is exposed here. See a specific number from Statistics Canada showing an example of a serious decline in immigrants seeking permanent residence in Canada.
