The moving party (father) brought a motion to change a 1999 child support order, seeking to terminate support for his adult daughter on the basis that she had completed her initial post-secondary program and was no longer eligible.
The responding party (mother) opposed the termination and sought an increase in support and contributions to the daughter's second post-secondary program.
The court found that the daughter's eligibility for support temporarily ceased during a hiatus between programs but revived upon her enrolment in a bridging program.
The court applied the standard Guidelines approach, ordering the moving party to pay an increased Table amount based on his updated income and to contribute $2,500 annually towards the daughter's section 7 post-secondary expenses until her expected graduation.
