In what circumstances will a husband be permitted to move out of his home?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Girardin v. Girardin, 1973 CanLII 912 (SK QB):

In Macrae v. Macrae, [1949] P. 397, [1949] 2 All E.R. 34, Somervell L.J. said at pp. 36-37: “Ordinary residence is a thing which can be changed in a day. A man is ordinarily resident in one place up to a particular day. He then cuts the connection he has with that place — in this case he left his wife; in another case he might have disposed of his house — and makes arrangements to have his home somewhere else. Where there are indications that the place to which he moves is the place which he intends to make his home for, at any rate, an indefinite, period, as from that date he is ordinarily resident at that place.”
