residents will tell you its Dominion Day But few seems aware that its the date the new provincial Family Law Reform Act is sup posed to take effect Elmvale lawyer Ross Heacock of the firm Teskey Heacock Ferguson and Gignac reminded an audience of 50 that legal changes were indeed in the offing as guest speaker at the general meeting of Unit of the Simcoe County Federation of Women Teachers Association of Ontario The Act proposed by the On tario Law Reform Commission will move into one court the diverse provincial acts current Steve Komar plays the organ at St Marys Roman Catholic hurch Hes been ly applicable to questions of property maintenance custody support and access to children Heacock said streamlining the provincial legislation will probably result in saving in money and time by dealing with most family law problems in unified family court The new act he said recognizes the changing economics in society the fact that 40 per cent of women are now employed and not making housework their permanent employment It also recognizes that not only husbands should pay support People in need should be supported by those who are able Husbands will not be free to acquire and dispose of property playing the organ for four years and says its challeng ing to learn more He is stu as before The whole marriage thing will be sharing concept sharing of assets and burdens rather than fixing them on one person The act is divided into four major sections family proper ty support obligations matrimonial home and mar riage contracts Heacock said that under prcL sent provincial law the bus bands earnings and property belong to him and wifes to her except that she usually has little in that regard because shes assumed the burden of the responsibility for the home The law has failed to recog nize her contribution and share of the family property he said But under the new act spouses are presumed to have con tributed equally and property lent at Eastvie Secondary School and is also member will be divided as such unless one party can show to Judges satisfaction why the ivision shouldntbee ual Not includ in family pro perty are the home which is dealt with separately or business unless both husband and wife were involved in the latter The sharing of family property applies only in the absence of marriage con tract Heacock said that marriage contracts for support or proper ty probably now illegal will gain legal status with the new act They must be made in writing however The Elmvale lawyer added that clauses dealing with the home and su port for the children
