Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Ukiri v. Erskine, 2020 ONSC 4294 (CanLII):
Father relies heavily on Gonales v. Trobarovic, 2014 ONSC 2468 in support of his claim that he should have exclusive possession of the home. He owns the home and pays the bills. Leaving Mother with effective de facto exclusive possession interferes with his rights as owner.
