    The age of majority in Canada is the age at which a person is considered by law to be an adult. A person younger than the age of majority is considered a "minor child."
    Ontario - 18

    Back in 2000 when I moved out it was 16, but I am not sure if it's the same law, but I would like to know if the law has changed since then or not.

    No the police can not do anything. 16 in the age of consent which means you can live legally with an adult who is less then 5 years older.

    I have a question I need answered asap.

    I have a friend who has a troubled family; they do drugs, alcoholics, you name it. When she's 16 she wants to move out of her familys home and move in with me and my family. Is this safe, legal? Can anything happen to me if this does happen; example: police show up, etc.

    Please let me know, thank you :)

    In ontario the legal age to move out with someone else is 14 years, and the other person will NOT be charged aslong as there is no help from this person. At 16 years you may choose to move out of your parents house. At 16 you can also rent an apartment, buy a house, etc. If your house is deemed unfit, you could claim financial support from your parents.

    You can legally move out when you are 16 years old. If you are under 18 and want to move out, and your parents say you can't, then you can apply for an emmancipation. This basically states that your parents have to let you move out, as well as give you all your personal documents (such as your birth certificate, health card, etc.), otherwise they will be charge. I am looking into this right now, and this is the correct answer for Ontario at least, and it is up to date (January 16th, 2012). Hope I helped! :)

    Okay so I know this is like epicly late on this thread which hasn't been active since August of last year but at 17 can someone in Ontario move out and live in the United States without parental permission? My boyfriend is being neglected and emotionally abused and wants to move into my house down in Washington State. Would that be possible?

    This May not be safe as you have mentioned they are troubled and there may be no legal harm done but physical may come directly from the family. All though this is Legal , I personally would not recommend doing so
    I hope this information was helpful to you.Good Luck To you and your Friend

    Sincerely,

    Will a judge vary an existing sole custody order that has been in existence for 14 years when the child turns 16 because the child wants to live with their other parent who has never had custody or rights?
