Failure to disclose financial information has been included in the list of factors cited by Justice Bastarache in the Supreme Court of Canada decision of
D.B.S. v. S.R.G.,
106 Courts should not hesitate to take into account a payor parent’s blameworthy conduct in considering the propriety of a retroactive award. Further, I believe courts should take an expansive view of what constitutes blameworthy conduct in this context.
I would characterize as blameworthy conduct anything that privileges the payor parent’s own interests over his/her children’s right to an appropriate amount of support.
He went on vacation, possible using his own money, when he could have been paying child support, when he could have been going back to school, when he could be retraining himself for another career
107 No level of blameworthy behaviour by payor parents should be encouraged. Even where a payor parent does nothing active to avoid his/her obligations, (s)he might still be acting in a blameworthy manner if (s)he consciously chooses to ignore them. Put simply, a
payor parent who knowingly avoids or diminishes his/her support obligation to his/her children should not be allowed to profit from such conduct: see
