Sorry to hear that friend. I recall you just bought the house a whle ago.

Anyway, as someone who has "been there" before, I can tell you as far as the house goes, it doesn't matter who's name the house is in, who paid for it, or anything else.

It's called the "marital home"

In the event of divorce, the "marital home" is split 50 / 50 regardless, unless you signed a marriage contract waiving that right.

Family law is covered under the Ministry of the Attorney General.

Here's an exhausing link:

Here's a great link that sort of summarizes it all in plain english....
