Gender Discrimination In The Common Law Of Domicile And The Application Of The Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms, Annalise Acorn Jul 1991

Gender Discrimination In The Common Law Of Domicile And The Application Of The Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms, Annalise Acorn

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

A married woman must take her husband's domicile at common law. This rule exists in five of Canada's provinces. It is argued that the rule violates the right to equality. It is further argued that, notwithstanding the Supreme Court's decision in Dolphin Delivery, the Charter must apply to common law rules governing the relationship between husband and wife. Such rules impose a status on the parties. Therefore, a commitment to respect for the autonomous choice of individuals does not support the conclusion that the rules should be beyond constitutional review.
