I wonder why people prefer common law instead of marriage. If a person doesn't want to commit in a relationship, then he/she shouldn't get into a relationship with anyone in the first place. I won't mind living together first and then get married after, but common law is definitely not the final goal to me.

    Common Law 都有得分身家

but according to the case law, the Supreme Court of Canada has recognized the utility and value of household labour since the 60s and 70s. On separation the common law spouse could potentially claim the other person's property.

總之基本權益﹐結唔結婚係無分別架。。。反而﹐若是一方面好有錢﹐一方面窮D﹐唔結婚 (同居) 的福利係好過結左婚。。。若有子女則更加﹐因為有所謂單親爸媽津貼呀。。。

怪只怪加拿大係一個怪社會﹐而家改都改唔切啦﹐惟有任由 D 人 take advantage 囉

Yes, aka trust claims. Yet, trust claims bona fide remedies are difficult to prove, especially in the content of common law relationships.

People really do that?  I know CRA can deem a couple as married on tax issues.

I think this kind of arrangement has more down size the money it gains.

A lots of things are more important that a little bit of money.

唉~~ 親眼見過﹐仲唔知一宗添﹐真係好有衝動去告發架。。。畢竟我地係納稅人﹐個D係我地的錢黎啊

特別係大陸來的 couples﹐好識呢D法律罅。。。更甚的﹐將小孩帶回大陸養﹐最多$600 人民幣夠一個月﹐但他們個個月拿政府幾百﹐都唔知幾發啊﹐有得幾個細路的﹐真係豬籠入水添啊

I personally don't believe in living together before marriage. If there's a decision to commit, it is a promise to yourself and the partner for life. "Trying a relationship" to me includes a backdoor and an indication of "in-security" in a loving relationship. So why bother?
