CONT

Les gouvernements fédéral, provinciaux et territoriaux doivent étudier sérieusement la création d'un système de versement d'allocation d'entretien à l'avance afin d'aider les parents seuls à subvenir aux besoins de leurs enfants. L'omission de faire les versements de pension alimentaire et d'allocation d'entretien ordonnés par la cour est un problème de longue date au Canada, et la seule solution est peut-être de demander aux gouvernements de faire directement les versements aux parents qui ont la garde des enfants et de recouvrer ce qu'ils peuvent auprès des parents qui n'en ont pas obtenu la garde.
