Does the Respondent have a right to access and child support and, if not, should his access be supervised?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Harris v Alberta, 2016 ONSC 1364 (CanLII):

The respondent does not dispute that there has been a material change such that it is appropriate for this court to consider the appropriate orders dealing with access and child support. In making a determination with respect to the issue of access, the court should look at the matter afresh, and conduct a fresh inquiry into the best interests of the child (see Gordon v. Goertz, 1996 CanLII 191 (SCC), [1996] 2 S.C.R. 27, para. 17). Should the Respondent’s Access be Terminated and, if not, should his Access be Supervised?
