What are the compelling reasons to change a parenting agreement?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from van den Ham v Thibodeau, 2015 ONSC 7662 (CanLII):
Based on the record before me, I find no “compelling reasons indicative of the necessity of a change to meet the children’s best interests” (see paragraph 15 of Grant v. Turgeon). I am, however, mindful of the fact that the children’s regularly-scheduled access, in accordance with the Agreement, ceased as of four months ago.
