The applicant brought a motion to change seeking to terminate or reduce his spousal support obligations, arguing that his retirement and poor health constituted a material change in circumstances.
The respondent opposed the motion, arguing the retirement was voluntary to avoid support, and sought retroactive indexation of support and life insurance to secure it.
The court found that the applicant's retirement was reasonable given his age and medical conditions, constituting a material change.
Spousal support was reduced based on the parties' current incomes.
The court also granted the respondent's request for retroactive indexation back to October 2011, but dismissed her request for life insurance.
