- On 15 February 2006 the Ontario legislature passed theFamily Statute Law Amendment Act, bringing two and a half years of public debate – or one chapter of the debate – to a close. Introduced into the legislature only three months earlier, the new law makes any religious arbitration of family disputes unenforceable in Ontario, and requires that all family arbitrations conform to provincial statutory requirements. Henceforth, a family-arbitration decision will be enforceable only if the arbitrator applies Ontario law or that of another Canadian jurisdiction. Arbitrators may not apply, for example, New York State law or Talmudic law or Islamic law.
