Abstract: Adult guardianship is a civil system established to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the adults whose action ability is damaged because of age, intelligent retardation, physical condition, or mental impediment. Compared with other types of guardianship, it is different in the aspects of applicable scope and object, function and construction of foundation. The Canadian codetermination system realizes the great innovation of the guardianship concept, emphasizing that we should provide a help for the decision of the parties rather than to replace its decision, which greatly maintains the autonomy of the parties and embodies the human rights, equality and the protection of the peopleoriented concept. We should construct a more humanized adult guardianship system on the basis of carrying out the codetermination concept.
