What is the quantum of a Support Mate awarded under the SSAG Guidelines?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Blackstock v Comeau, 2018 ONSC 193 (CanLII):

I have considered the case law provided by counsel, as well as that set out in the SSAG Revised User Guide. I note that in Aujla, supra, the court awarded 1.5 times the maximum guideline amount. In Wilson v. Marchand, 2007 ONCJ 408 (CanLII), without having the benefit of the Support Mate calculations in determining quantum, Justice Zisman awarded an amount that likely resulted in the recipient receiving over 50% of the parties’ Net Disposable Income.
