This judgment addresses issues of section 7 expenses and section 9 child support in a shared parenting arrangement.
The court determined the parties' incomes, excluding the father's non-taxable benefits and the mother's RRSP withdrawals (which were used for legal fees).
It found the father's blanket refusal to consent to additional section 7 expenses unreasonable, ordering him to contribute to therapy and competitive dance, but not Montessori tuition or private swimming lessons.
For ongoing child support, despite a set-off calculation, the court ordered the father to pay an additional amount to the mother, considering the higher housing costs incurred by the mother and the father's greater ability to absorb costs.
