What is the range of damages awarded by the Court of Arbitration for Divorce in B.C. on behalf of the Claimant's claim?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Pasch v. Blackmore, 2011 BCSC 413 (CanLII):

While this amount is far short of the claimant’s expectation it should be borne in mind that, as Baker J. observed in Jensen v. Jensen, [1994] B.C.J. No. 2603 (B.C.S.C.), marriage is not an institution created to redistribute wealth, and a short marriage should not confer a financial windfall to one of the parties.
