It can be said that the respondent has suffered an economic disadvantage in the pursuit of her career. She had to move on several occasions when the petitioner unilaterally quit his employment. Had she remained at the Winnipeg daycare from 2008 to the present time, it is reasonable to conclude that the respondent would have had increases in her income level, perhaps been promoted, and certainly continued to build up a pension operated by the Rady JCC. Therefore, the consequences of the marriage and its breakdown have placed the respondent at an economic disadvantage which sustains compensatory basis for spousal support. See Bracklow v. Bracklow, 1999 CanLII 715 (SCC), [1999] 1 S.C.R. 420, 44 R.F.L. (4th) 1 and Moge v. Moge,1992 CanLII 25 (SCC), [1992] 3 S.C.R. 813, 43 R.F.L. (3d) 345.
