What is the test for obtaining a parenting order under section 24 of the Children's Law Reform Act?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from K.H. v. T.K.R., 2013 ONCJ 418 (CanLII):

[42] When considering the parenting requests of the parents, I must determine what orders are in the best interests of the children pursuant to section 24 of the Children’s Law Reform Act, and consider the applicable factors set out in subsection 24 (2). I have done that. I have also considered that children should have maximum contact with both parents, provided that such an order is consistent with their best interests. See: Gordon v. Goertz 1996 CanLII 191 (SCC), [1996] 2 S.C.R. 27.
