What Are The Grounds for Divorce in Canada?

There is fundamentally only one ground for divorce and that is ‘marital breakdown’.

Marital breakdown can be proven in three ways: 1. You and your spouse have lived separately for a period of one year; 2. Your spouse has committed adultery; or 3. You have been treated with intolerable cruelty (mental or physical) by your spouse.
