Since you are not married and her name is not on the mortgage then she has no rights to the house. Basically she doesn't have much, if any more rights, than a couple shacking up.
If people could live together and automatically have as much rights as if they were married the courts would be in a bigger mess than they are. If the kid is yours she can get you for support on that angle. Are you just living together and calling it common law or did you sign anything? Here is a Canadian site explaining common law Differences between marriage and common law separations in Canada Most common-law couples don't know their rights |
