Legal Question in Family Law in Canada
Bank account
Hi I am currently in the process of separating from my husband. We are still in the house until it sells, he keeps spending all our money. Can I open an account and keep my money separate without his knowledge? He has an extreme drinking problem and money just goes like water thru his hands.

Re: Bank account
Yes, you certainly may open a separate, secret, bank account, and that is a smart thing to do. You will at some point have to reveal the existence of the account, but you should not let that worry you now.
