Thibaudeau v. Canada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thibaudeau v. Canada, [1995] 2 S.C.R. 627 was one of a trilogy of equality rights cases published by a very divided Supreme Court of Canada in the spring of 1995.[1] The Court held that the provisions of the Income Tax Act requiring an ex-wife to include amounts received from ex-husband as alimony for maintenance of children is not a violation of the ex-wife's equality rights under Section 15 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
