Ontario exemption for computer, etc.

I have recently separated from my wife. While we could pay our debts together, I’m not able to pay my share by myself.

I would like to know whether computer equipment is exempt in Ontario. I read about household items and “tools of the trade” being exempt, but I’m not sure if a computer counts.

In most cases, unless you have an elaborate system, home computers are treated like any other appliance and therefore fall within the eligibility for exemption. I suggest you raise the issue again with your trustee before you file.
