I think it came to that because I looked at what the definition actually laid out. I think that's what a lot of people, businesses, and individuals are having a difficult time with, looking at the law and seeing what it's actually laying out.
It's being specific in the sense that it's saying that people are considered family if they fall under a marriage, common-law partnership, or any legal parent-child relationship. That doesn't leave open any room for people who do consider second cousins to be family, for example.
Although my example was hypothetical, I do think it is relevant, and I think there are situations where you are reaching out to somebody who would be technically your family member, but CASL doesn't consider them to be your family so I think there's a disconnect there.
