The following excerpt is from Hanna v. Bazuik, 2010 ONSC 4750 (CanLII):
In deciding whether the conditions for variation exist, it is common ground that the change must be a material change of circumstances. A variation hearing is neither an appeal nor a trial de novo: Willick v. Willick 1994 CanLII 28 (SCC), [1994] 3 S.C.R. 670.
