[73] The father raised the issue of child support with the mother in early November 2021 by text message. This is when the father provided the mother with effective notice of his interest in seeking support. It is the presumptive date when support should start. See: Colucci v. Colucci, 2021 SCC 24, par. 114. The mother acted with hostility to this request and refused to pay any support.[7]
