Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from BOURKE v. DAVIS, 2020 ONSC 7667 (CanLII):
It has been held that the court is not required to apply a standard of perfection in assessing the parties’ ability to communicate and work together. It is sufficient if the necessary cooperation is workable and adequate (see Jackson v. Jackson, 2017, ONSC 1566 (S.C.J.) at para. 65-5).
