In Canada, a parent can disown an adopted child by formally severing the legal relationship through a court process, typically involving a petition for termination of parental rights. This process may require showing just cause, such as abandonment or abuse, depending on provincial laws. It's important for the parent to seek legal advice to understand the implications and ensure that the child's best interests are considered. Additionally, the child may have rights and protections under adoption laws that need to be addressed.
