DIVORCE
This particular subset of family law is entirely within federal jurisdiction and is governed by
the Divorce Act, which details the specific process for the dissolution of a marriage. Despite
divorce being a federal matter, much of the fall-out from divorce lands in the provincial realm
(e.g., the division of marital assets, etc.). Related topics: CHILDREN AND THE LAW, FAMILY
LAW.
DIVORCE
Branche du droit de la FAMILLE, le divorce traite des moyens légaux de mettre fin au mariage.
C’est un exemple, avec la FAILLITE, de droit privé de compétence fédérale. Cette loi pose le
problème de l’interrelation avec le Code civil du Québec.
