Pension rights give rise to special difficulties in questions of spousal support. Under the Ontario Family Law Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. F.3, a pension right must be valued as a capital asset that is an entitlement to a future income stream. After retirement, the pension changes from a capital asset into an income asset. When the pension is in pay, in a sense, the pension asset is being liquidated.

CONT

Des droits de pension de retraite soulèvent des problèmes particuliers dans le cas de la pension alimentaire. Aux termes de la Loi sur le droit de la famille, L.R.O. 1990, ch. F.3, un droit de pension de retraite doit être considéré comme un bien en capital qui représente un droit à un flux de revenu éventuel. À la retraite, la pension de retraite passe d’un bien en capital à un bien en revenu. Quand la pension de retraite est versée, dans un certain sens, les avoirs de retraite sont liquidés.

OBS

À ne pas confondre avec «droit à pension», l'équivalent de «pension entitlement».
