What is the test for a child's right to have an income-earning relationship with the parent of the child?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from C.P. v. S.P., 2015 BCPC 41 (CanLII):
Second, Gordon v. Goertz tells us that, barring an improper motive for the proposed move, there must be an attitude of respect for a custodial parent. This means, in part, that the party seeking to move need not prove the move is necessary, although any degree of necessity, such as for income-earning reasons, may bear upon the best interests of the child.
