For those who are litigating about whether or not an employer-paid living allowance should be included in the imputation of income, this recent Alberta Court of Appeal case will be of interest:
Calver v Calver, 2014 ABCA 63 (CanLII), <CanLII - 2014 ABCA 63 (CanLII)
I particularly like the panel's remark: "The courts should not second-guess legitimate transportation choices made by parties. The father’s decision to avoid long-distance winter travel by road in isolated locations was not unreasonable."
No longer Child of the marriage:
A further statement of note: "The father correctly asserts that the judge erred in law when he ordered retroactive section 3 support and section 7 expenses for the oldest child even though (as the mother acknowledges) she was no longer a child of the marriage when the mother made her application."
