Motion for temporary child support for three children.
The applicant father was unemployed and receiving Ontario Works, claiming inability to pay child support.
The respondent mother sought to impute income to the father based on his education, work experience, and capacity to earn.
The court found that the father was intentionally underemployed and imputed an annual income of $40,000 to him, ordering monthly child support of $746 effective June 1, 2017.
The court rejected the father's claims that he had made exhaustive job search efforts and found his explanations for not applying to suitable positions unreasonable.
