In their present form, the laws are set against sane treatment of families struck by the unfortunate yet natural occurrence of separation or divorce. Family Laws in Canada are so antagonistic to those family members snared by the court system that these laws may be in part responsible for a measurable decline in immigrants seeking permanent residence in Canada.

In 1997, the Federal Liberal Government made sweeping changes to Family Law in Canada. The Federal Liberal Government persuaded the Provinces to immediately adopt the same laws.

Families are crushed by Canada’s Family Laws. Children, previous spouses, and other family members suffer under the force of the family courts, including, grandparents, aunts and uncles, sisters and brothers of men over child visitation limitations.

Kids became increasingly invoked as “pawns” in planned conflicts. The conflicts are set up by the laws and then irritated by enterprises (legal practises, paralegals, counsels). Some fathers are ordered by the court to never see their kids or limit visits to two (2) times per month. Some youngsters suffer lifetime psychoses and drift into lives of substance abuse or crime.

Fathers who divorce are relegated to a second tier class. These men are mistreated by courts similar to Black Americans of the 1960′s were treated by what was called “Southern Justice.” Absent fathers are hunted down and prosecuted as if they are significant and deadly criminals.

Since 1998, many professionals have presented positive alternatives to the Governments of the Day. These are professionals in sociology, child psychology, family counselling, and pro-family legal experts, and have included a Special Parliamentary Joint Committee.

To date, all the significant reforms presented to all governments of the day have been ignored. After ample time (more than a decade) to benefit from the blunders that were made at the outset, the Canadian and Provincial governments accept the status quo to remain.

Martin Wong has studied Canada’s Family Laws and Provincial family laws introduced by the Federal Liberal Government in May 1997. How these laws and court decisions impact real people is exposed here. See a specific number from Statistics Canada showing an example of a significant decline in immigrants looking for permanent residence in Canada.

As the law of Cyber Space, as envisioned by William Gibson in his novel Neuromancer , Cyber Law addresses the issues of Virtual Property and Virtual Persons. It covers rights of Netizens who are the citizens of Cyber Space and regulation of the Cyber Space for a peaceful and harmonious existence of Netizens.

The biggest challenge before Cyber Law is its integration with the legacy system of laws applicable to the physical world.

Since Cyber Space has no geographical boundaries, nor the Netizens have physical characteristics of Sex, Age etc, several conflicts surface when the rights of Netizens are viewed in the eyes of Citizens of a physical space. This is well reflected in the conflict between the Trade mark Laws and system of Domain Names.

There are several countries which have enacted special laws for regulating Cyber Space Transactions of Citizens within their Physical Jurisdiction and these are recognized as the Cyber Laws of the Physical Jurisdiction.

A recent book by Ahmad Kamal entitled “The Law of Cyber-Space” published by the United Nations Institute for Training and Research, argues in favor of starting global negotiations on comprehensive and harmonized laws in this domain. The ultimate solution is to “harmonise” the laws of all the countries by making a compatible and commonly acceptable international treaty safeguarding the cyberspace.
