What is the test for establishing that a party is likely to suffer irreparable harm if they are ordered to relocate?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Corbiere v. Corbiere, 2020 ONSC 4363 (CanLII):

In Burkes v. Canada Revenue Agency, 2010 ONSC 3485, the court held that “the evidence about irreparable harm must be clear and not speculative. It is not enough to show that the moving party is “is likely” to suffer irreparable harm; one must establish that he or she “would suffer” irreparable harm (para 18).
