tario has reformed its family laws.
We think you
dyourf. 'ly
should
know about
them.
The purpose of the new legislation is to
strengthen and encourage the role of
the family by bringing outmoded and
unfair laws into line -with modern
family life. Among the subjects
covered are:
• Matrimonial property—the sharing
of family assets, including the family
home.
• Support— the mutual obligation of
spouses to support themselves and
their children.
® Domestic contracts— what they are
and how to make them.
• Abolition of the status of
illegitimacy—equal rights for all
children.
1
® Marriages,—age of consent and civil
ceremonies.
® Succession rights — the rules for
making wills and rights of surviving
family members.
The new laws substantially change the
rights and responsibilities of every
person in Ontario.
The Ministry of the Attorney General
has prepared an easy -.to -understand
pamphlet which summarizes the new
law. For your free copy, write to:
