Abstract
This article examines the implications of section 9 of the Federal Child Support Guidelines for second families. The authors consider how underemployment or unemployment has been factored into the assessment of child support. The authors further discuss how increased household costs have been valued, how the courts have dealt with the argument that “free” childcare is being or should be provided in a new relationship, and the relevance of economies of scale created by the establishment of second families. Section 9 invites the courts to take into account the “conditions, means, needs and other circumstances” of spouses and children; the authors analyse cases dealing with increased household income and sharing of expenses where a spouse repartners, as well as the financial obligations of each spouse to the children. The authors conclude by commenting on the fairness of the current treatment of second families under Canadian law.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
