Desperate times demand desperate measures. In an attempt to get deadbeat parents to pay child support the Ministry of Community and Social Services in Ontario has set up a website called www.goodparentspay.com in the hopes that it will assist with the collection of child support payments by means of embarrassment and humiliation. This is in essence an “Ontario’s Most Wanted” list of deadbeat parents. Profiles including photos are posted on the website and your help is asked in helping to locate these deadbeat parents. There will be up to 25 photos of deadbeat parents at any one time and their photographs and profiles will immediately be removed as soon as they contact the office. There are currently over 180,000 active cases of deadbeat parents in Ontario with over 1 billion dollars owing in child support. In order to qualify for the “Hall of Shame”, you must have not paid child support for 6 months and all efforts to find you have been tried and failed by the Family Responsibility Office.
