- Court
- District Court
Reading s.145(3) in the context of the Act and its s.3 definition of 'spouse' the court concluded that 'remarriage' includes entering into a relationship in the nature of marriage; therefore cessation of weekly compensation two years after such a relationship commenced was lawful and the appeal was dismissed.
