The unmarried parties, parents of three children, sought a determination on final decision-making responsibility, child support overpayments, and unjust enrichment following their separation.
The court ordered parallel final decision-making responsibility, allocating specific areas to each parent and alternating extracurricular decisions.
The court excluded the respondent's RRSP withdrawals used for legal fees from his income, resulting in a finding that he overpaid child support, which the applicant was ordered to reimburse.
The court dismissed the applicant's claim of a joint family venture but found the respondent was unjustly enriched by the applicant's provision of childcare during her maternity leaves, awarding her $36,933 in compensation.
