What is the difference between a claim for equal division of property and equalization of spousal and child support?

Manitoba, Canada


The following excerpt is from Lao v. Rousseau, 2012 MBQB 302 (CanLII):

There is a significant difference between that case and the case at bar. Whereas there is here no claim respecting property, in Mraovic v. Mraovic, the petitioner asked for an equal division of the marital property as well as spousal and child support and an order setting aside the separation agreement and other relief.
