My ex and I are trying to finalize our divorce. years ago wemy ex and I are trying to finalize our divorce. years ago we were in court in Manitoba. in court at a case conference, we agreed to certain things, however the separation agreement never got signed by either of us. We're like Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson. We've been separated since Sept 15 2008. what's left is the financial calculations. I agreed to only have him pay me half of retro child support that he owed me on the recommendation of my lawyer. I agreed to 14K back then. He legally owed me 28K. because we didn't have an agreement signed or court order, with the new Divorce Act, is this still binding or does he still just owe me the 14K? BTW, I never received it. His lawyer did not send it even after my ex took out a loan for it. … read more

I'll just get right to it.....lol. I fainted at home on MayI fainted at home on May 30th, and crushed my hand in my door. it was quite badly injured and I sought medical attention at the hospital that night. I applied to the sick bank through my employer and was approved after waiting for the appropriate time and then was cut off without warning due to an outlandish claim that I was engaging in conduct that was going against my injuries, when in fact I was not. i have medical documentation from three different professionals that state what I was being accused of was impossible for me to achieve. they denied me in the appeal process claiming there wasn't enough medical information and yet, requoted the accusations again so I'm not sure what they are even "convicting" me of. I've been without pay for the last two weeks and my OT doesn't really want to send me back but I basically said I had to because I have to have money. my union doesn't seem to want to fight for me and I have no where else to turn really. i was told to talk to you as you may be able to help me in some way. … read more
