Legal Question in Family Law in Canada

Divorce process

Time frame for a divorce settlement

Is there any way that my spouse can force me to progress with the divorce proceedings faster than I want to settle? I am in no hurry as I am living in the matrimonial home at present, receive child support and receive an adequate wage at my full-time job. I've heard that a divorce will proceed as quickly/slowly as I want it to.... is that still true?

In British Columbia, yes she can speed things up. In B.C. you can not make it proceed as slowly as you want it to.
