Hello, My name is XXXXX XXXXX I am currently going thru a seperation…

You do not have to allow her to remain in Ontario. You can seek a Court Order to have her return him. He is your son too. She was not permitted to move him out of the jurisdiction unless she had your permission or permission of the Court. If you want to do this you will need to move very quickly.

Otherwise you should either get an agreement or Court Order about access and about how pays for the transportation.

Custody and access are separate issues from support. If your child is going to live with his mother you will need to provide support based on the Federal Child Support Guidelines.

In Manitoba common law spouses have the same property rights and obligations that married spouses have. So, all your assets and debts are to be split.

For all these reasons it's clearly crucial for you to consult with a family lawyer right away.

What you can do to find a lawyer is one of the following things.

You can contact the Law Society and use their Lawyer Referral Service. You will be given the names of three lawyers and can consult with any or all of them and the first half hour will be free.

Or you can check on a site called lexpert. This is a legal directory of leading lawyers and law firms throughout Canada and is well-respected by the legal community.

Here's the link to their website:
