- Parties: The claimant was Shonra Lynne Thiessen, also known as Shonra Lynne Reynolds. The respondent was John Thiessen. 

- Subject Matter: This dispute, which arose from the breakdown of an 8.5-year relationship between the parties, related to the division of family property, claims of excluded property, entitlement to spousal support, and a request for a fine for alleged breaches of court orders. This case concerned application of the legal principles under BC’s Family Law Act, 2011. 

- Ruling: The court equally divided the family property. The court specifically made the following findings. First, the RV should be classified as family property, with the respondent retaining it and crediting the claimant $20,000. Second, regarding the cryptowallet and foreign currency (assessed at $1000 each for a total asset value of $2,000), the respondent should offset the claimant $1000. Third, gold and silver assets should be divided equally in kind. Fourth, the respondent was credited $8,000 for the occupational rent that he had to pay after being ousted from the family property and $29,043 for his contributions toward paying off family debts. The court found the claimant entitled to spousal support on compensatory and non-compensatory grounds due to her economic disadvantage and limited self-sufficiency and awarded her a lump-sum spousal support payment of $57,337. 

- Date: The court released its decision on Jan. 30, 2025. 

- Venue: This was a case before the Supreme Court of British Columbia. 

- Amount: The court ordered each party to bear their own costs.
