Is a sexless marriage grounds for divorce in Canada?

In Canada, a sexless marriage can be considered a factor in divorce proceedings, particularly if it contributes to a breakdown of the marriage. While Canadian law recognizes "irreconcilable differences" as grounds for divorce, there is no specific law that mandates a sexless marriage as grounds for divorce. However, if one partner feels that the lack of intimacy significantly impacts their quality of life or emotional well-being, it may be cited as part of the broader reasons for seeking a divorce. Ultimately, the decision is influenced by individual circumstances and the overall dynamics of the relationship.

What does Until death do us part mean when so many couples are divorcing?

The phrase "Until death do us part" means that the only entity which dissolves a valid marriage is death. At the point of death the couple ceases to be married. Divorce does not dissolve a marriage.

Divorce in the Catholic sense simply means that the couple is choosing to live apart for a time. However distance or separate dwellings does not dissolve the marriage. The couple is still in the state of marriage and therefore not free to enter into another relationship. The couple vowed themselves to each other "Until death do us part."
