Sign Now
Canada to seek the advice of Canadiansto answer the questionof how best to
amend the Divorce Act of Canada (1985)to reduce the amountof damage done
to children when their parents separate.The committee'sreport was called "For
the Sake of the Children", and was read intoParliament. It waswithdrawn by then
Justice Minister Ann McLellan inDecember, 1998.
While hundreds of thousands of childrencontinued to suffer,and so many more
were enrolled into this abuse, thegovernment of Canadahas obfuscated and
delayed the much needed reform for thelast five years.Now it has introduced
Bill C-22, which is now past its secondreading in Parliament.C-22 now stands
before committee for its final draftbefore being passedinto law.
BillC-22 abandonsall the reforms urged upon the government byParliament and
the people of Canada, as articulated in"For the Sakeof the Children". Instead,
the government attempts to entrenchlegally quarrelsome,divisive and excessive
points of law, and supplies the legalcommunity with moregovernment funding
at the expense of our children, and tothe detriment ofthe nation. Bill C-22 is an
unwholesome and unwarranted intrusion ofthe state intothe private lives of
citizens.
This petition requests the governmentabandon the abusiveclauses of C-22
which leave our children to the tendermercies of thedivorce industry. This
petition requires the government toincorporate the 48recommendations of the
Parliamentary report, "For the Sakeof the Children",into Bill C-22. It is the will
of the people and the will of Parliamentto immediatelyimplement every child's
inalienable right to the care, comfortand guidance ofBOTH of their natural
parents in an equally shared formatwithout discriminationto unjustly favour one
parent over another.
No other solution is consistent with thegender equalityat law principles of the
Constitutionof Canada.
