Yukon, Canada


The following excerpt is from R.K.K. v. B.M.M. et al., 2009 YKSC 33 (CanLII):

The father's counsel relies on the case of Easton v. McAvoy, 2005 ONCJ 319, where Renaud J., of the Ontario Court of Justice, stated, at para. 24: “In matters of interim custody, upon the courts weighing all the evidence, although conflicting, and taking into account the legislative factors mentioned above, the interim order should, unless there is strong and cogent reason for doing otherwise, seek to permit children to have meaningful and maximum contact with each parent.”
