Is email money transfer safe? I mean what if the receiver does not receive it into his/her own account and instead receives it into someone else's account then how would you prove that you paid SS?

The information that is needed to access the money is sent to the recipient's email address. Those are not the same between two people. The person receiving the money has to open the email, follow the instructions, answer a security question and then they choose the bank account that will get the money. There is no "accidentally" posted it to someone else's account.

There should be no problem -
1. you send the money to you ex's known email address and put a security question.
2. she receives the email , clicks the link
3. chooses her bank
4. Answers the security question
5. Money is deposited.
You can then print out a list of transactions made and the email recipient of those transactions is included.
Its one of easiest traceable ways to send money.

Just a thought......
EMT is safe and easy, but as a counter point I prefer to write a cheque when there is the chance of dispute.
For S7 I write a cheque with the memo filled in as to what the payment is for... ie month of XXXXX daycare... 2 or 3 times my ex has come back months after the S7 item was incurred, and said I hadn't paid my S7 share. I emailed her the returned cheque imagine from on-line banking with a "see attached for proof of past payment".
The memo line matched the S7 item she said I hadn't paid for...
She's incredibly disorganized.....

When you are completing your transfer, there is a spot for a "memo" and I would strongly suggest you memo the transfer as "child support payable for the month of ----" so as to ensure it not be confused as a gift or other monetary transfer.Start a discussion, not a fire. Post with kindness.

ok, if it does not matter where or whose account he/she is directing the money into then I guess there is no issue. I was more concerned about if CRA asks for signed receipts form him/her and he/she may say that he/she never received the money because it did not go into him/her own account.

Total annual support payments are first applied to child support owing, then to spousal support when CRA is calculating the tax refund which is attracted by spousal support payment deduction......
