The wife's application for family law relief involved equalization of property, including a fishing boat, tax debts, and an inheritance exclusion, as well as post-separation adjustments for occupation rent.

The court dismissed the wife's claims regarding the fishing boat and inheritance exclusion due to insufficient tracing evidence.

It accepted the husband's proportional tax debt deductions.

Prejudgment interest was awarded to the wife on the equalization payment from the date of separation.

The claim for occupation rent was denied, considering the parties' financial arrangements, the wife's delay in claiming, and her benefit from property value increase.

A divorce order was granted on consent.

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice issued supplemental reasons varying a child support order.

The court accepted the respondent's 2015 income at $90,735.00, setting child support at $1,294.00 per month for two children, effective January 1, 2015.

Accumulated arrears of $16,648.00 were ordered to be paid at $175.00 per month.

The respondent was also ordered to provide annual income tax returns and notices of assessment.

A charge was placed on the respondent's property as security for child support.

The respondent's initial application to reduce support, eliminate arrears, and terminate support for one child was largely withdrawn or denied, except for the variation of child support based on updated income.

The applicant was awarded $2,000.00 in costs due to the respondent's protracted conduct and inadequate financial disclosure.
