As a rule of thumb, only a person who is a resident of Canada for a minimum of one year can apply for Divorce in Canada. Therefore If both parties do not live in Canada, then neither can get a divorce under Canada's גירושין Laws.

On the other hand, you can end your marriage under the Civil Marriage Act if you meet BOTH of the following requirements:

• You were married in Canada; and

• You are unable to terminate your marriage in the country you currently live because that country does not recognize Canadian marriage.

A process under Civil Marriages Act merely ends the marriage it does not resolve other issues such as child custody, child support, spousal support and Division of Property.
