Recent developments in Canadian family law underscore the importance of clear and enforceable marriage contracts. In the case of Singh v. Khalil, the Ontario Court of Appeal upheld a 2017 marriage contract that waived spousal support and maintained separate property, despite the husband's claims of duress and lack of disclosure. The court emphasized the husband's legal background and his decision not to seek independent legal advice, affirming the contract's validity. This ruling highlights the necessity for individuals to fully understand and voluntarily enter into marriage agreements. It also demonstrates the courts' willingness to uphold such contracts when properly executed.
