There are also remedies to address when the opposite situation arises - namely that a party fails to exercise parenting time or contact.  In those circumstances the other party can apply for an order under section 63 of the Family Law Act for an order:
(a) requiring the parties to participate in family dispute resolution;
(b) requiring the party to attend counseling or another specified service or program;
(c) requiring that the transfer of the child from one party to another be supervised;
(d) requiring that the party reimburse the expenses incurred by the other party due to the non-compliance; and
(e) if the court is satisfied that there may be further non-compliance, then an order to post security or to report to the court or to a person named by the court in a manner specified by the court.
