British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Collier v. Campbell, 2013 BCSC 825 (CanLII):

In Lessard v. Mahoney, 2007 BCSC 562, the court imputed income where there had been a failure to provide information under the Guidelines. The court stated at para. 59: [t]his amount may appear to be arbitrary, but that is the risk the defendant assumes when income is imputed in the circumstances.

Finally, in Goodnough v. Goodnough, 2008 CarswellOnt 3107 (S.C.J.), the court also imputed income to the respondent where there was a failure in respect of disclosure obligations under s. 19 of the Guidelines.
