In the context of a long-term marriage, what are some of the agreements between the husband and wife in Bracklow?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Back v. Back, 1998 CanLII 927 (BC SC):
Those agreements coupled with the short duration of the marriage and the fact that the respondent brought all of her problems into the marriage made the conclusion of the trial judge rather predictable. In my view Bracklow does not represent a departure from what the law has been since Moge v. Moge (1993), 1992 CanLII 25 (SCC), 43 R.F.L. (3d) 345.
