British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from A. (J.) v. G. (P.L.), 2005 BCSC 1629 (CanLII):
I wish to add that I have serious doubt as to whether the change in the mother's circumstances constituted "a distinct departure" from what the parties could reasonably have anticipated in August 1999, so as to satisfy the third branch of the test. See Gordon v. Goertz, para. 12.
