In terms of the changes to the federal Divorce Act, obviously Philip can speak to this more eloquently than I can. Per my understanding, the Divorce Act was changed in March of last year, and now includes family violence as a factor that judges have to take into account when deciding the best interests of a child.
Judges don't understand what family violence and coercive controlling behaviour look like. We need to provide them with that education, so they are able to properly implement those changes as intended.
