What factors will the court consider when making an order for access to a third party?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Ninkovic v. Utjesinovic, 2019 ONSC 558 (CanLII):

A further consideration is whether an access order would destabilize the family unit. See Blackburn v. Fortin, 2006 CarswellOnt 3458. In that case, Justice Smith declined to grant access to a grandmother where significant tension existed between the grandmother and mother, the grandmother often imposed unsolicited views on proper child-rearing, and the grandmother had made a heavy handed attempt to change the parents’ decision regarding schooling. The court found that access could destabilize the family unit.
