The respondent mother brought a motion for interim sole custody, child support, and spousal support, while the applicant father brought a cross-motion for interim shared parenting and an order that the children remain at their current French Immersion school.
The court found that both parents were capable and involved, and ordered an interim shared parenting regime with equal time and residency.
The court also ordered that the children remain at their current school, noting the parents' prior agreement on French Immersion and the lack of evidence supporting a change.
Child support was ordered on a set-off basis under section 9 of the Child Support Guidelines, and the mother's claim for interim spousal support was dismissed without prejudice.
