Does a 16-year-old who lives out of town for post-secondary education have a right to use a mobile phone?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Ferlisi v. Boucher, 2021 ONCJ 48 (CanLII):

[98] The youth’s cellphone costs also do not fall within an enumerated category under subsection 7 (1) of the guidelines. See: Park v. Thompson, supra, par. 24. The analysis may be different if the youth resides out-of-town for his post-secondary education. This expense will not be allowed at this time.
