Abstract
The care of children after divorce is increasingly invoking a stance of equality between parents such that there is an increasing emphasis to mandate shared custody. The moral stance of viewing care as “time with” the child and justice as “money” paid has been dominant. Seizing on moral theory and the concepts of justice and care, this paper argues that a 2005 Supreme Court of Canada decision awarding substantial child support in the context of shared custody effectively bridges the concepts of justice (child support) and care (time) in way that puts the child’s best interests at the forefront.
